A custom-built mudroom in the Pacific Northwest offers a practical solution to the region's rainy climate by providing a designated space to store wet and muddy outdoor gear, preventing messes from spreading throughout the house. It enhances organization and efficiency, allowing easy access to essentials like raincoats, boots, and umbrellas, thereby streamlining daily routines.

Talk about a transformation! Thornton Interior Designs and AKN Interiors designed and installed the dream built ins that allowed for hiding all the essential office gear like printer, shredder, files, etc. We collaborated on the project by completing all the decor including furniture, lighting, wall art, and decorative accents.

The right side of the garage was crafted using our proprietary design & engineering principles so the client could "grab n go" or "load & leave". You'll notice all the active gear is stored here. Non-essential items that support outdoor activities have been stored in the high-end garage cabinets.

4x8 Pinyon Studio SHED - these are a great way to store anything from lawn tools to art supplies or athletic gear. The Pinyon comes flat packed and is shipped as a DIY installation - a 1-2 day project depending on your building experience. One owner had his up in just 3 hours! Many choose to install their Pinyon against the side of their home. Pictured here: a Pinyon sits perpendicular to it's big brother, a 10x12 Studio Shed home office.

I love the Serene Steam Spa design as well as it's green properties. There's No Electric at all, as it runs entirely off your hot water. It's a very warm and wet misty air infused with the essential oils you choose. I was never a fan of steam rooms or saunas because they were just too hot. What I Love about Serene Steam is it's not too hot, not too cold, it's just right! With several different models to fit all different budgets and some geared more towards retrofitting, while others work great for remodeling and new construction.

This family getaway was built with entertaining and guests in mind, so the expansive Bootroom was designed with great flow to be a catch-all space essential for organization of equipment and guests. Integrated ski racks on the porch railings outside provide space for guests to park their gear. Covered entry has a metal floor grate, boot brushes, and boot kicks to clean snow off. Inside, ski racks line the wall beside a work bench, providing the perfect space to store skis, boards, and equipment, as well as the ideal spot to wax up before hitting the slopes. Around the corner are individual wood lockers, labeled for family members and usual guests. A custom-made hand-scraped wormwood bench takes the central display – protected with clear epoxy to preserve the look of holes while providing a waterproof and smooth surface. Wooden boot and glove dryers are positioned at either end of the room, these custom units feature sturdy wooden dowels to hold any equipment, and powerful fans mean that everything will be dry after lunch break. The Bootroom is finished with naturally aged wood wainscoting, rescued from a lumber storage field, and the large rail topper provides a perfect ledge for small items while pulling on freshly dried boots. Large wooden baseboards offer protection for the wall against stray equipment.
