My clients asked me to transform their current living and dining room into a music room as their children enjoy playing their Baby Grand piano on a regular basis. The wall and french door was removed that was between the living room and dining room and we installed a linear electric fireplace with storage pullouts for some of their music books along the bottom on either side as well as floating shelves above the pullouts. Their wall to wall carpet was removed and new hardwood was laid down. Ceilings were scraped and pot lights were also placed throughout the space and lighting was installed underneath the floating shelves. My client loves artwork by Toronto based artist Sharon Barr so she commissioned a piece from her and that sits above the fireplace. We also installed the "Frame" TV by Samsung on the other side of the fireplace which looks like another piece of artwork nicely framed. My client already had 2 beautiful occasional chairs that we designed at Gresham House 6 years earlier so we re-purposed them in this room to sit in front of the fireplace. In the cozy sitting area, we grounded it with a beautiful silk and wool area rug, added a comfortable leather ottoman, a small round swivel chair, a beautiful contemporary sectional and a set of nesting end tables. All of this furniture was designed by The Expert Touch Interiors at The Decorating Centre. Final touches with accessories and the floor lamp and pouff were found at Urban Barn. My client's once dated and unused space is now a well-used dual purpose room that the whole family can enjoy!

Our client, Zack, is a young urban professional, who lived in Hong Kong, where he became fascinated with Feng Shui. We Feng Shui'ed his whole place, but he also wanted a massive renovation of his extremely dated kitchen.
He had a fairly limited budget by Bay Area standards ($25,000). We basically gave him a $50,000 kitchen for $25,000. First, we took down a wall that was previously where the bar currently sits.
To pull off this project, we did some expert bargain shopping, we got a $10,000 marble slab for $1500, refaced his cabinets and added glass fronts, bought floor model appliances, and custom made some of the fill-in cabinets.

This client came to us in a bit of a panic when she realized that she really wanted her bathroom to be updated by March 1st due to having 2 daughters getting married in the spring and one graduating. We were only about 5 months out from that date, but decided we were up for the challenge.
The beautiful historical home was built in 1896 by an ornithologist (bird expert), so we took our cues from that as a starting point. The flooring is a vintage basket weave of marble and limestone, the shower walls of the tub shower conversion are clad in subway tile with a vintage feel. The lighting, mirror and plumbing fixtures all have a vintage vibe that feels both fitting and up to date. To give a little of an eclectic feel, we chose a custom green paint color for the linen cabinet, mushroom paint for the ship lap paneling that clads the walls and selected a vintage mirror that ties in the color from the existing door trim. We utilized some antique trim from the home for the wainscot cap for more vintage flavor.
The drama in the bathroom comes from the wallpaper and custom shower curtain, both in William Morris’s iconic “Strawberry Thief” print that tells the story of thrushes stealing fruit, so fitting for the home’s history. There is a lot of this pattern in a very small space, so we were careful to make sure the pattern on the wallpaper and shower curtain aligned.
A sweet little bird tie back for the shower curtain completes the story...

The kitchen was at the top of the list for a total overhaul – the worn oak cabinets, dated appliances, and clunky layout all had to go. Removing the decorative soffits allowed us to take the new cabinetry all the way to the ceiling, adding functional storage and visually extending the room’s height. We reconfigured the layout from a modified U to an L-shape which accomplished several things – it opened up the kitchen to the dining room, redirected circulation, and most importantly, created space for an island. A brand new pantry was created for overflow food storage, bulk items, occasional dishware and small appliances, ensuring that our client’s goal of uncluttered countertops was achievable.
The finish selections and clean lines give a nod to the home’s mid-century bones. The wood island provides warmth and the light quartz countertops, textured backsplash and white cabinets keep the kitchen feeling light and bright. We opted to install open shelving above the sink which provides display space and needed storage without the bulkiness of an overhead cabinet. The matte black faucet, hardware and decorative pendants add another level of visual interest to the modern kitchen. To unify the kitchen and dining room, we replaced the drab kitchen flooring with select red oak hardwoods that were expertly installed and refinished to match the gorgeous wood flooring throughout the home.

Scottsdale Golf Course Kitchen: Modern Elegance Meets Timeless Function
Description:
This aesthetic equity refresh transformed a dated kitchen into a sophisticated, highly functional space for a Scottsdale couple who love to entertain and enjoy their stunning 9th-hole golf course views.
Working within the home's existing architectural character—including soaring ceilings with natural skylights and original flooring—we created a kitchen that honors the clients' cherished antiques while delivering modern convenience for a passionate home cook.
Key Design Solutions:
Custom beverage station with wine and liquor storage for seamless entertaining
Workstation sink with integrated waste bin for efficient meal prep
Interior cabinet organizers maximizing storage throughout
Height-enhanced cabinetry adding visual impact and storage capacity
Patio door converted to an expansive window with custom-fabricated coffee table, creating an intimate morning nook overlooking the fairway
Expert retrofitting of angled cabinet runs for a cohesive, built-in appearance
Design Challenges:
The project required careful coordination of updated finishes with existing tile flooring and the clients' antique furnishings, ensuring the refresh felt intentional rather than piecemeal. Complex angles demanded custom cabinet solutions to maintain clean lines and maximize function.
The result is a kitchen that gives these homeowners—now in their 70s—decades more enjoyment from their home, blending style, accessibility, and the functional details that make daily life effortless.

This Redmond home underwent a stunning kitchen transformation, turning a dated and closed-off space into an open-concept culinary haven.
Once the structure was prepped, our team installed custom navy-blue cabinetry, adding a bold yet timeless touch. The oversized island became the heart of the kitchen, featuring a luxurious quartz countertop with ample workspace and storage. Sleek stainless-steel appliances complemented the modern aesthetic, while the new lighting arrangement, including pendant lights over the island, enhanced both functionality and style.
The flooring was replaced with warm, natural wood tones to add contrast and bring a sense of balance to the space. The backsplash, a clean and sophisticated marble-look quartz, tied the entire design together, providing both elegance and durability.
The result is a bright, contemporary kitchen that seamlessly blends practicality with high-end design. The transformation not only elevated the home’s value but also created a welcoming space for cooking, entertaining, and everyday living. This project showcases the power of expert craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and premium materials in achieving a dream kitchen remodel in Redmond.

SDC Signature (Space Decor Contractors LLC) completely reimagined this tired, dated den, transforming it into a modern, beautiful, and fundamentally safe living space. The original room suffered from significantly uneven ceilings and an outdated aesthetic that caused the homeowner structural concerns. Our comprehensive scope of work went far beyond simple finishes—we focused on restoring absolute structural integrity and peace of mind.
We executed a precise structural overhaul, reinforcing the main central beam and implementing a custom scissor framing system to safely raise and perfectly level the ceiling joists. By removing all the outdated wiring and installing new, code-compliant electrical for energy-efficient recessed LED lighting, we eliminated hidden hazards behind the walls.
The homeowner was absolutely thrilled with the final result. Beyond the stunning visual upgrade, she now has the security and confidence of knowing the "bones" of her home are expertly reinforced and built to last.
Key Transformation Details:
Structural Engineering & Safety: Reinforcement of the main beam and installation of a custom scissor framing system to securely level and elevate the ceiling.
Modernization: Complete removal of heavy drop ceilings, old wall paneling, and a gas fireplace to create a clean, open, and safe layout.
Premium Finishes: Expertly hung and finished smooth drywall on ceilings and walls, fresh premium paint throughout, and new custom trim.
Upgrades: Installation of safe, modern recessed lighting, dedicated electrical connection prep for a future mini-split HVAC system, and professional floor repairs.
This project highlights our commitment to delivering uncompromised craftsmanship. At SDC Signature, we don't just build beautiful spaces; we build trust and lasting structural security for discerning homeowners.
