In Westhampton, New York, a homeowner installed this modern switchback floating staircase to connect their first and second floors. It’s a look that is as sturdy as it is beautiful.

Nestled at the end of a long flag lot driveway in Amagansett, NY, a young couple purchased the property with intentions to construct a second home for their growing family. A home that would not only be comfortable for the immediate family but also serve and grow on busy summer weekends to accommodate extended family, friends, children and guests. The tight lot along with the sizable program culminated in the building envelope being pushed to every limit, restriction and regulation one could imagine. The resulting architecture possesses a traditional Hamptons cottage exterior juxtaposed with modern elements that help break up the single mass. Centered on the entry façade is a large double story window that shrouds the floating switchback staircase on the interior. A bluestone patio wraps three sides of the home, which, in the rear, leads to a small in ground pool with a frameless glass railing. In the interior, custom white washed white oak floors run throughout the home as well as on the floating central staircase. For a more modern style of living, the open living, kitchen and dining area serve as one large entertaining space. In an area surrounded by sprawling Mcmansions, this tightly knit home functions more similar to that of a large NYC apartment by serving the perfect balance between maximized form with the right amount of function given the strict parameters. Large glass sliders open the living and dining rooms to the backyard patio and pool creating harmony between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Shaker style cabinets in the kitchen pair with a more contemporary staircase softened by the warmer wood tones of the vertical slats that surround it.

This space-saver staircase adds modernity and style without crowding the area. With sleek stainless steel spindles and unique alternating treads, this staircase proves that BIG things (and style) really do come in small packages!

This modern bathroom got a touch of farmhouse flair thanks to a trio of L-shaped floating shelves constructed by The Olde Mill. The clean lines of the shelves perfectly complement the shiplap paneling. The dark espresso stain stands in stark contrast to the monochromatic walls and plays well with the dark tones in the bathroom tiles. Contracted by Rhett Bourgeois. Space planning by Ourso Designs.

This inviting family room was designed to balance bold design with everyday comfort, creating a sophisticated space where the family can gather, relax, and entertain. Deep charcoal walls create a dramatic backdrop, allowing the light wood media console, floating white oak shelf, and soft neutral furnishings to stand out with warmth and contrast. A large sectional offers generous seating for family movie nights, while layered textiles and patterned accent pillows introduce depth, texture, and subtle color. Floor-to-ceiling linen drapery softens the room and frames expansive views, bringing natural light into the darker palette. Thoughtfully curated artwork and accessories complete the space, creating a refined yet approachable aesthetic that feels both timeless and lived in. Every design decision was intentional, blending clean architectural lines, natural materials, and functional furniture to create a contemporary family room that is equal parts cozy and elevated.

Built from the ground up on 80 acres outside Dallas, Oregon, this new modern ranch house is a balanced blend of natural and industrial elements. The custom home beautifully combines various materials, unique lines and angles, and attractive finishes throughout. The property owners wanted to create a living space with a strong indoor-outdoor connection. We integrated built-in sky lights, floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings to attract ample, natural lighting. The master bathroom is spacious and features an open shower room with soaking tub and natural pebble tiling. There is custom-built cabinetry throughout the home, including extensive closet space, library shelving, and floating side tables in the master bedroom. The home flows easily from one room to the next and features a covered walkway between the garage and house. One of our favorite features in the home is the two-sided fireplace – one side facing the living room and the other facing the outdoor space. In addition to the fireplace, the homeowners can enjoy an outdoor living space including a seating area, in-ground fire pit and soaking tub.

"I cannot say enough good things about the Innovative Construction team and work product. They remodeled our water-damaged, 1930s basement, and exceeded all of our expectations - before and after photos simply cannot do this project justice. The original basement included an awkward staircase in an awkward location, one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen and small living space. We had a difficult time imagining that it could be much more than that. Innovative Construction's design team was creative, and thought completely out of the box. They relocated the stairwell in a way we did not think was possible, opening up the basement to reconfigure the bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, living space, but also adding an office and finished storage room. The end result is as functional as it is beautiful. As with all construction, particularly a renovation of an old house, there will be inconveniences, it will be messy, and plenty of surprises behind the old walls. The Innovative Construction team maintained a clean and safe work site for 100% of the project, with minimal disruption to our daily lives, even when there was a large hole cut into our main living room floor to accommodate new stairs down to the basement. The team showed creativity and an eye for design when working around some of the unexpected "character" revealed when opening the walls. The team effectively uses technology to keep everyone on the same page about changes, requests, schedules, contracts, invoices, etc. Everyone is friendly, competent, helpful, and responsive. I felt heard throughout the process, and my requests were responded to quickly and thoroughly. I recommend Innovative Construction without reservation."

This complete home renovation on East 24th Avenue in Vancouver transformed a dated family home into a bright, modern space with a warm and timeless character. Every room was thoughtfully redesigned from the ground up, balancing high-end finishes with livable, family-friendly function. Kitchen The heart of the home received a full transformation. Crisp white shaker cabinetry pairs beautifully with a sage-green zellige tile backsplash that wraps the entire perimeter, adding texture and warmth. A large centre island in soft grey offers generous prep space and seating for four, topped with a thick quartz countertop. Brushed brass dome pendants and matching hardware tie the space together with an elevated, cohesive look. Floating oak shelves add open storage and a natural contrast to the crisp cabinetry. Primary Ensuite A true spa retreat. Floor-to-ceiling handmade white tile surrounds a deep soaker tub lit by a skylight above, while a custom blush oak vanity with shaker-style drawers, quartz countertop, and brushed brass fixtures brings warmth and sophistication. Floating oak shelves echo the kitchen detailing throughout. Secondary Bathrooms Each bathroom was given its own distinct personality. One features a blush oak vanity with a statement sage pendant light fixture. Another showcases elongated picket tile in a soft blue-grey, floor to ceiling, paired with a quartz undermount sink and brushed gold faucet — a bold yet refined design choice. Entryway & Staircase Guests are welcomed by a completely reimagined open staircase featuring white oak treads, a matching handrail, and sleek white rod balusters — a stunning architectural focal point. Wide-plank light oak hardwood flooring flows throughout the main level, tying every space together seamlessly.
