Designed by Cody Pools' Luis Alcazar, this custom backyard was created to bring together luxury, entertainment, and everyday relaxation. The pool features a dramatic rock grotto with a cascading weeping wall that serves as both a visual centerpiece and a playful retreat. A spacious sun shelf provides the perfect place to lounge, while the elevated spillover spa creates soothing movement and sound throughout the space. Designed with entertaining in mind, the oversized in-pool table comfortably seats 8–10 guests, creating a unique gathering place unlike a traditional swim-up bar. A nearby fire pit filled with decorative glass beads extends the outdoor living experience well into the evening. Premium finishes complete the design, including an Indian Wheat Sundek deck finish, Travertine coping, Noble Labrador Sea waterline tile, a Noble Vanuatu Blue tiled in-pool table, and a PebbleTec Aqua Blue interior finish. The result is a thoughtfully designed outdoor retreat that balances natural elements with refined materials, providing a timeless space for entertaining, relaxation, and making memories with family and friends.

This custom home addition and interior remodel in Fremont, CA was designed and built by Casa Utopia Builders to elevate everyday living with a sleek, modern aesthetic and enhanced functionality. The project included a full kitchen redesign, two bathroom upgrades, and the addition of expansive living space with vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan. In the kitchen, we installed custom flat-panel cabinetry with a warm walnut finish and integrated white lowers for a clean, two-tone contrast. A large porcelain waterfall island anchors the space, complemented by continuous slab countertops and backsplash. Premium stainless steel appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a sculptural modern pendant add both performance and beauty. The new great room is filled with natural light thanks to multiple skylights and wide sliding glass doors, blending indoor and outdoor living. Light European oak flooring runs throughout, bringing warmth and continuity. Both bathrooms were completely reimagined with spa-inspired finishes. We used large-format porcelain tiles, matte black fixtures, and wood-look accent walls for a luxurious yet organic feel. Modern LED mirrors, floating vanities, and rainfall shower systems elevate the experience. The entire addition was constructed with energy efficiency, clean lines, and lifestyle in mind. Every detail—lighting, layout, finishes—was curated to create a space that feels elevated, timeless, and personal.

Time had stood still at this 1970s ranch in Armonk when the owners invited us to collaborate with them to transform it into a modern, light-filled home for their young family. The budget was lean, so economy was a primary consideration for every design decision. The challenge was to identify the modest home’s virtues – vaulted ceilings and a lovely backyard – and accentuate them by strategically optimizing available funds. We were tasked with rectifying a dysfunctional interior stair, connecting to the outdoors with new large windows, and updating the exterior. We focused our attention on a finite set of architectural moves which would have the biggest impact and improve our clients’ daily experience of the home. Detailing was kept simple, using common grade materials and standard components. All exterior walls were revamped with new windows and siding. Although these materials were not particularly costly, thoughtful layout of boards, battens, and openings produced a cohesive, rigorous composition at each facade. Since the budget would not cover the homeowners’ complete wish list, some items were bracketed for subsequent phases. The challenge was to establish a framework that would allow future work – including a new roof and kitchen renovation – to proceed smoothly. The homeowners, both scientists, were enthusiastic collaborators, contributing their outstanding design sensibilities to selection of fixtures and finishes. Construction ended just in time for the arrival of their baby – and with that, the transformation of their family home was complete.

By Sara Pendleton I will never forget meeting Heidi for the first time in the store. She was checking us out after having a bad experience with design services through a different company, and she was so amazed at what we had to offer. We both got really excited talking about her new construction project, which is a second vacation home for the family. She has a really tight timeline and needed to be able to furnish the home in time for the Holidays. It was so awesome to have a big showroom and such a good variety of furniture, to be able to get everything done in a short time. She was so amazed at our selection and also the pricing. Working together was very natural and I was able to quickly determine their needs with functionality, and also cater to the style they were trying to accomplish. The install was completed in time for her family to arrive for the holidays and enjoy ski time and relaxation. I love being able to fill her families needs and show a new resident how awesome Park City design can be.

This Primary Bathroom was divided into two separate spaces. The homeowner wished for a more relaxing tub experience and at the same time desired a larger shower. To accommodate these wishes, the spaces were opened, and the entire ceiling was vaulted to create a cohesive look and flood the entire bathroom with light. The entry double-doors were reduced to a single entry door that allowed more space to shift the new double vanity down and position a free-standing soaker tub under the smaller window. The old tub area is now a gorgeous, light filled tiled shower. This bathroom is a vision of a tranquil, pristine alpine lake and the crisp chrome fixtures with matte black accents finish off the look.

Our client’s large family of five was shrinking through the years, so they decided it was time for a downsize and a move from Westlake Village to Oak Park. They found the ideal single-story home on a large flag lot, but it needed a major overhaul, starting with the awkward spatial floorplan. These clients knew the home needed much work. They were looking for a firm that could handle the necessary architectural spatial redesign, interior design details, and finishes as well as deliver a high-quality remodeling experience. JRP’s design team got right to work on reconfiguring the entry by adding a new foyer and hallway leading to the enlarged kitchen while removing walls to open up the family room. The kitchen now boasts a 6’ x 10’ center island with natural quartz countertops. Stacked cabinetry was added for both storage and aesthetic to maximize the 10’ ceiling heights. Thanks to the large multi-slide doors in the family room, the kitchen area now flows naturally toward the outdoors, maximizing its connection to the backyard patio and entertaining space. Light-filled and serene, the gracious master suite is a haven of peace with its ethereal color palette and curated amenities. The vanity, with its expanse of Sunstone Celestial countertops and the large curbless shower, add elements of luxury to this master retreat. Classy, simple, and clean, this remodel’s open-space design with its neutral palette and clean look adds traditional flair to the transitional-style our clients desired.

The overall design objective was to take advantage of every opportunity to experience the beauty of the lake, while providing all the comforts and conveniences of a modern luxury home. The steep, narrow site and its proximity to the lake presented many challenges during construction. The main living area focuses on entertaining family & guests, and includes a dining area with wet bar, study/guest room with guest bath and a gourmet kitchen. Custom cabinetry and built-ins throughout the house add a traditional touch and fill a practical storage need. The master bedroom has its own balcony view of the lake, while the lake level features a sauna, wine cellar and the soothing sounds of the lake lapping at the edge of a stone patio.

About This Project: Welcome to the epitome of modern living - the modern home. This stunning property boasts of custom lighting that creates a warm and cozy ambiance throughout the house. With tall ceilings and large windows, the house gets filled with natural light, making it the perfect place to unwind after a long day at work. The gourmet kitchen is every chef's dream, complete with top-of-the-line appliances and a custom marble island. The perfect place to entertain guests, the kitchen effortlessly combines functionality with style. This is a house that is perfect for anyone looking to indulge in the finer things in life.
