These integrated solutions help maximize cabinet space while maintaining a clean, uncluttered appearance.

A well-organized closet isn't complete without accessories that enhance its functionality and maximize available space. Some of the most sought-after additions include valet rods, which allow you to prepare your outfit for the next day by extending to fit any space and adjusting to your height and preferences. A tilt-out hamper is ideal for storing dirty clothes, ensuring your colored garments stay separate from whites. An integrated ironing board eliminates the hassle of setting up a traditional one, providing a convenient fold-out option right in your closet.
To simplify the organization of clothing accessories, tie and belt racks ensure your ties and belts are easy to find and neatly arranged. Drawer organizers keep items like socks separated and impeccably organized, making it effortless to locate what you need. A jewelry organizer is essential for safeguarding your collection, helping you categorize and keep track of all your pieces, streamlining the process of accessorizing when you dress. These accessories seamlessly integrate into a custom closet, enhancing its functionality and making everyday tasks more efficient.

This master bathroom remodel in Reston was designed around a fully custom steam shower, creating a clean and comfortable space with a spa-like feel.
The shower area was completely reworked by removing one of the existing walls and opening up the layout. We installed a frameless glass enclosure that runs to the ceiling, which is essential for proper steam retention while also making the space feel more open.
Inside the shower, the entire enclosure was tiled from floor to ceiling, including the ceiling itself. This is an important detail for steam showers, along with proper waterproofing behind the tile to ensure long-term performance.
To improve functionality, we added a built-in bench with a quartz top, along with two recessed niches for storage. The shower floor features a hexagon mosaic tile, which adds texture and provides better grip.
The material selection throughout the bathroom was kept clean and consistent. We used MSI Eden Dolomite tile in both polished and matte finishes, paired with a Bianco Dolomite accent tile on the plumbing wall and inside the niches.
The vanity area features Fabuwood Galaxy Indigo cabinets, combined with a Frost White quartz countertop and matte black hardware. This contrast helps define the space while keeping the overall look balanced.
Additional updates included new recessed lighting with dimmers, updated electrical and plumbing work, and a fresh coat of paint throughout the bathroom and closet.
The final result is a modern master bathroom centered around a fully functional steam shower, designed for both everyday use and long-term durability.

The owners of a local historic Victorian home needed a kitchen that would not only meet the everyday needs of their family but also function well for large catered events. We designed the kitchen to fit with the historic architecture -- using period specific materials such as dark cherry wood, Carrera marble counters, and hexagonal mosaic floor tile. (Not to mention the unique light fixtures and custom decor throughout the home.) Just off the kitchen to the right is a butler's pantry -- storage for all the entertaining table & glassware as well as a perfect staging area. We used Wood-Mode cabinets in the Beacon Hill doorstyle -- Burgundy finish on cherry; integral raised end panels and lavish Victorian style trim are essential to the kitchen's appeal.

This butler’s pantry strikes the perfect balance of charm and functionality. Soft blue cabinetry with warm wood accents adds character and depth, while open shelving keeps essentials both beautiful and accessible. Integrated appliances, a built-in wine fridge, and abundant storage make this space as practical as it is stylish. With brass hardware and a clean marble-look countertop, this pantry feels like a seamless extension of the kitchen—perfect for entertaining and everyday living.

In the basement we added COREtec laminate wood flooring and again opened up a few rooms to create an open, bright entertainment area. We also whitewashed the brick around the fireplace and added new French doors to the outside. These new doors let in so much natural light that you don’t feel like you are in a basement at all!
We tore down the walls between four rooms to create this great room in Villanova, PA. And what a difference it makes! This bright space is perfect for everyday living and entertaining family and friends as the kitchen, eating and living areas flow seamlessly. With red oak flooring throughout, we used white and light gray materials and crown moulding to give this large space a cohesive yet open feel. We added wainscoting to the steel post columns. Other projects in this house included installing red oak flooring throughout the first floor, refinishing the main staircase, building new stairs into the basement, installing new basement flooring and opening the basement rooms to create another entertainment area.
