Renovisions
These Hanover, MA clients came to Renovisions as they wanted a local design-build company to rework and expand their small and outdated 1980’s colonial kitchen.
We collaborated and created an expanded 12’x15’ addition space to accommodate a newly designed kitchen which is now 21’x15’. Before we began with the construction process, proper structural engineering presented a challenge as the property was built on ledge. As expected, we determined that several concrete supports were necessary and needed to be built to support the expanded structure.
Our plan included both creative aesthetic and functional layout modifications to transform this ordinary kitchen into a spacious, well-lit, highly functional, stylish and welcoming space to cook, gather and entertain. The bump-out allowed for more functional cabinetry and a dining table which before was placed in a corner of the previous cramped kitchen. Now, there is a wide open space from the adjacent living room and a clear path to a 5’ French door opening to the pool deck. The homeowners also elected for us to extend a new roof over their existing deck creating a nice shaded space to entertain guests.
The island, which serves as the central gathering spot. is eye catching with contrasting dark cocoa colored cabinets and stunning natural looking Cambria quartz countertops. Large, easily accessible deep drawers provide much needed storage for pots, pans and lids as well as expansive countertop space for everyday prep and family get-togethers.
Overall, the clients were thrilled with their Renovision and cannot wait to throw a party to show off their stunning kitchen.
“There is not a single choice we aren’t happy with; it is so us! I love all of the storage and I have a feeling we are going to do a lot of entertaining this summer.”
“Dear Cathy and Ed, We are abundantly grateful for the entire Renovisions Team that have provided us with a beautiful kitchen and porch to enjoy. We will continue to make family memories for many years to come with this new addition. From the first time we met with you at the showroom, we were confident that high quality workmanship would go into our new construction. Mike, Brad, and Tom were very trustworthy and worked very hard every day they were on the job site. They were very flexible and always put the homeowners safety first. They even offered a bit of comic relief! Every night the site was cleaned meticulously, never leaving tools or sharp edges of any sort in the open space. We were also very pleased with the help offered when designing and choosing cabinets, tile and other finishes. Liz was always very helpful and patient to answer questions when we came by the showroom. We are extremely pleased with all the choices and on a daily basis we enjoy the warmth and amazing space it provides.
We recently hosted a retirement party for 70 people and it never felt crowed! We relax under the covered porch in the morning for coffee, the afternoon for lunch and to watch the grandkids in the pool. And of course in the evening while we read or catch up on emails. It is an amazing space! Thank you all again, for your hard work and passion for your craftsmanship. We will be in touch soon to set up a date for you all to drop by to see the finishing touches and to enjoy refreshments.”

This family of three kids moved from a three bedroom apartment in the city to a large home on the north shore of Long Island. I tool many of their existing pieces and re-covered, re-finished, etc. In the basement I created a screening room and a basketball court. The first floor is an open plan thus you can see every angle of the space. Each room needed to flow and compliment each other. It was hard starting with the Kitchen backsplash which is a bright red gloss tile.

This classic terraced town house located in Fulham’s exclusive Lion estate was fully refurbished a few years ago by the current owners. But the customers were never happy with the colour of the oak chevron parquet fitted by their builder in the large living room, entrance hallway and downstairs toilet. We were contracted to expertly refinish the floor to a lighter colour much closer to the customer’s preference.
Unexpectedly dark finish
The parquet seemed to be fitted to a reasonable standard but the finish did not meet the customers expectations. They retold how shocked they were when they returned from holiday to find a much deeper, darker colour that was too dark to see the grain pattern. Despite high ceilings and a large feature window the floor absorbed all the light in the north facing reception room. We were contracted to refinish the floor to a lighter colour much closer to the customer’s preference. After a closer inspection of the floor we found it had been aggressively sanded and we were concerned not too much wood was left for another round of sanding.
Sanding and refinishing
We chose our tools carefully with the limited thickness of the floor in mind. We used the Laegler Trio Sander set on a fine sanding level. The Trio has flexible sanding plates which we used to sand the low points of the floor without removing too much thickness. We were happy to be able to use our tools and expertise to achieve a smooth, scratch free surface. After we successfully sanded the floor we created live samples straight onto the freshly sanded floor to give the customer the best view of the colour options. We selected a strategic spot for the samples with an even amount of light. The family discussed the options, made a decision and we proceeded to apply the colour.
Taking care of special items of furniture
The customers helpfully cleared away smaller delicate pieces of furniture and we carefully moved larger pieces into the next door dining room. We were mindful of protecting quality furniture and bespoke sliding doors.
The customers were very happy with their newly refinished floors.

I was hired to design this 20,000 square foot home for a family of 6. The goal was to make the home functional for the family and yet perfect for entertaining. Traditional was the style with some formality. We used architectural details in cabinetry, ceiling details, and trim out throughout the house to accommodate the 12' tall ceiling on the main floor. The colors scheme also agreed with tradition. Using the tool of visualization, we pulled together furnishings, and accessories and drapery that completed the overall magnificence of the house.

RND Construction noted that this home was designed to support the lifestyle of a busy family, incorporating contemporary and green design, along with pragmatic elements. For instance, the great room and kitchen are one open, continuous area ideal for family gatherings and allows unimpeded sight lines wherever the kids may be playing. As well, a smart mudroom features helpful organizational tools, like built-in cubbies and benches.

This beautiful 1881 Alameda Victorian cottage, wonderfully embodying the Transitional Gothic-Eastlake era, had most of its original features intact. Our clients, one of whom is a painter, wanted to preserve the beauty of the historic home while modernizing its flow and function.
From several small rooms, we created a bright, open artist’s studio. We dug out the basement for a large workshop, extending a new run of stair in keeping with the existing original staircase. While keeping the bones of the house intact, we combined small spaces into large rooms, closed off doorways that were in awkward places, removed unused chimneys, changed the circulation through the house for ease and good sightlines, and made new high doorways that work gracefully with the eleven foot high ceilings. We removed inconsistent picture railings to give wall space for the clients’ art collection and to enhance the height of the rooms. From a poorly laid out kitchen and adjunct utility rooms, we made a large kitchen and family room with nine-foot-high glass doors to a new large deck. A tall wood screen at one end of the deck, fire pit, and seating give the sense of an outdoor room, overlooking the owners’ intensively planted garden. A previous mismatched addition at the side of the house was removed and a cozy outdoor living space made where morning light is received. The original house was segmented into small spaces; the new open design lends itself to the clients’ lifestyle of entertaining groups of people, working from home, and enjoying indoor-outdoor living.

Amy Troute Inspired Interior Design
Amy Troute Inspired Interior Design partnered with the Woodhill Homes and Sunriver build teams in 2022 to curate two interior finish packages and the exterior palette for Forestbrook, a stunning master planned vacation rental neighborhood within Central Oregon’s Caldera Springs community. The property, nestled among towering Ponderosa pines, will eventually welcome over 70 customized vacation homes. Our High Desert Retreat is our first fully furnished Forestbrook home - a getaway for our clients and their family and a year-round vacation rental. The owners call Arizona home, and that warm desert palette inspired the aesthetic of their new retreat. Area rugs with rich earth tones ground each space and provide color and texture for bedding, artwork and upholstery. The great room windows are the signature of each Forestbrook home, and our furnishings pull the greens and rusts from the landscape, drawing you in. The kitchen’s warm woods and classic surfaces welcome the family chef, and inside those cabinets is every utensil, plate, pot, pan, and tool they’ll ever need. The primary and main guest bedrooms are outfitted with luxurious layers of bedding that are easy to clean and turn over between stays. The upstairs bonus space welcomes kids of all ages with four adult-friendly bunk beds and a queen sofa bed. Chess anyone? Forestbrook homes each offer an efficient, yet fully outfitted ADU that can be rented separately or with the rest of the home. With a king bed, desk, comfortable sofa, well equipped kitchenette, and dining space, guests will feel right at home! We look forward to furnishing many of these Forestbrook homes, each inspired by the owners and the beauty of the natural scenery out every window!
