To move or not to move — that is the question many homeowners are asking as they consider whether to upgrade their existing residence or pack up and find a new one. It was that exact question that was discussed by this homeowner as they evaluated their traditional two-story home in Fontana. Built in 2001, this cedar-sided 3,500-square-foot home features five bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, and a full basement. During renovation projects like the these, we have the ability and flexibility to work across many different architectural styles. Our main focus is to work with clients to get a good sense of their personal style, what features they’re most attracted to, and balance those with the fundamental principles of good design – function, balance, proportion and flow – to make sure that they have a unified vision for the home. After extensive demolition of the kitchen, family room, master bath, laundry room, powder room, master bedroom and adjacent hallways, we began transforming the space into one that the family could truly utilize in an all new way. In addition to installing structural beams to support the second floor loads and pushing out two non-structural walls in order to enlarge the master bath, the renovation team installed a new kitchen island, added quartz countertops in the kitchen and master bath plus installed new Kohler sinks, toilets and accessories in the kitchen and bath. Underscoring the belief that an open great room should offer a welcoming environment, the renovated space now offers an inviting haven for the homeowners and their guests. The open family room boasts a new gas fireplace complete with custom surround, mantel and bookcases. Underfoot, hardwood floors featuring American walnut add warmth to the home’s interior. Continuity is achieved throughout the first floor by accenting posts, handrails and spindles all with the same rich walnut.

Trex has invented, defined and perfected the composite deck category with a lineup of low-maintenance, high-performance, eco-friendly products that fundamentally change the way we live outdoors. It's no wonder so many happy deck owners consider Trex the best decking material.

A timeless design uniting a small galley kitchen with it’s adjacent eating area and allowing this small condo kitchen to be used to its full potential. Continuity was crucial in this space as it encompasses a fair portion of the open area in the condo. Connecting the bases and uppers with tall panels helped the kitchen appear furniture like. Repeating the counter as a backsplash and keeping it close in tone to the cabinetry added to the furniture aesthetic. Additionally, paneling the appliances helped the utilitarian fundamentals fade away. This polished steel cabinet is visible from both the formal living and dining rooms, so having it as a beautiful focal point was perfect. In the same way, as this space is visible from most of the home, keeping it neutral and calm while providing ample storage for the client, was a dream come true.

In the Candice Tells All episode, ‘The Art of Balance’, design expert Candice Olson uses fundamental design principles to inject balance and symmetry - transforming an awkward living room into a beautiful and relaxing space with a Séura Entertainment TV Mirror as the centerpiece of the design. In this episode, Candice finds the perfect solution to balance technology and design with a Séura Entertainment TV Mirror to create a gathering space, and a relaxing living room for watching TV. The 46” LED TV provides a bright, high-performance picture when switched on, and transforms into a stunning mirror when switched off. Candice chose a warm wood frame from Séura’s Belmont collection to add a custom touch of elegance to the TV mirror. The Séura TV Mirror is installed above a fireplace and between flanking bookcases. The TV Mirror has become a focal point in the room and complements the fireplace.

In this whole-house renovation we transformed a dark ‘50s ranch house into a bright, open, contemporary home with a breathtaking 180-degree view. The owner sought a peaceful, sanctuary-like environment where she could relax and work from home, as well as an easy place to entertain guests. Following these fundamental criteria, we approached the project with a simple design and select palette of natural materials.

Brick and stone veneer are nothing new to the world of architecture and construction. They are attractive, durable, and don’t come with the same hefty price tag as a traditional, full sized stone or brick. And, in the instance of this beautiful new home in Evanston, Illinois, their use marks achieving a standard of sustainability measured by the popular certification program, LEED. These are no ordinary stone veneers. They are entirely man-made, which gives them several important qualities that do well to promote environmentally friendly design. This article aims to examine this stunning work of residential construction, and answer a few fundamental questions about LEED. What is it? Why is it Important? And how do things like sourcing local, sustainable materials make an impact on the environment? Learn more: http://bit.ly/leed-stone-veneer

Warm, sandy woods, espresso tones, and light plush fabrics come together exquisitely in this open and bright living room. Our goal was to give our clients a luxurious but relaxed style which is why we introduced light earth tones and pale blues. Clean lines and symmetry are the fundamental elements of this design, so it was important to add in the right amount of texture. With the right textiles, warm organic elements, and artisanal lighting and decor, we created the home of our client's dreams. Project designed by Courtney Thomas Design in La Cañada.

Not only do the homeowners have a grill with exceptional cooking capacity for large and small gatherings, the comprehensive design also eliminates the need to leave the party. This is made possible with the integration of fundamental kitchen components such as integrated storage cabinets, dual refrigerator drawers, an ice maker and waste and recycling units.

APARTMENT | BA Gray, wood, and blue are the main colors in the apartment redesign located in Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro. The owner wanted to create a modern atmosphere and have a large room with access to the kitchen, but without it being an open concept completely. Our solution was to create large wooden sliding doors that allowed immediate access to the main living and dining area as well as access to the kitchen. This helped achieve a fully-integrated look between the two spaces, yet can both be sealed off to create a more intimate and private space. The color palette matches with the personality of the owner, and blue was the fundamental color. We chose blue to add a dynamic life to the space as well as tie into the existing art pieces the owner already had.

Designed by Akram Aljahmi of Reico Kitchen & Bath in King of Prussia, PA in collaboration with Property Remodeling Group, this transitional inspired kitchen design features white and grey finishes complemented by a bold splash of blue tile. The kitchen design features Merillat Classic kitchen cabinets in Portrait door style with 5 piece drawer head in 2 finishes. The wall cabinets features a painted white Cotton finish and the base cabinets feature a painted grey Graphite finish. Kitchen countertops are engineered quartz in the color Carrera Marmi from Q by MSI. The kitchen also features a stunning blue herringbone tile back splash with 3x10 tiles. According to the client, "Akram solved a fundamental function problem that I could not see a solution for. His re-imagining of how the main floor of our home could function was a dramatic shift that I can't wait to experience as part of day-to-day life. Really appreciate his space plan and layout, as well as his support selecting finishes. Akram and team were great to work with!". Photos courtesy of BTW Images LLC.

Approaching this beautiful mountain home is a feast for the eyes. The allure and stunning beauty not only comes from the minute details of the home and landscaping but from the grand vistas that encompass it. Be prepared ….the moment one steps over the threshold all perception of what a typical mountain home can be changes in an instant. A perfect explanation of what is presented is modern meets mountain. The elegant, simply unique home features a fresh approach to mountain living. Consistency and continuity are the fundamental features of this special home. Certain elements run throughout the interior; engineered wide oak flooring, white horizontal plank paneling, and gray fresh split stone adorn the walls and limestone countertops in various rooms. However, as your eye follows the quiet, clean lines they are intermittently interrupted with a dash of splash here and a pop of color there that are placed precisely in the right spots.

Well selected spaces, are very comfortable all along this beautiful 4200 square feet house in Coral Gables, Florida.

It all started with a sliding barn door and a bold and simple thought: what if we painted it “Geranium”? From there, a neutral-meets-ethnic loft interior unfolded at Society Hill Tower, perched high above the city of Philadelphia. Our client brought us in as interior designers to collaborate with Ambit Architecture, who helped her merge two adjacent apartment units into one, large, open floor-plan unit. One of the challenges on a project like this is the very openness of the space – there are many furniture selections visually connected to one another, and connected to the kitchen, with its bold pops of yellow. So it was important to establish some fundamentally neutral tones that would provide unity from one furniture grouping to the next. We also wanted to make sure that the panoramic views of the city would remain an important focus of the space. Therefore, in the living and dining room, we chose large scale furniture pieces made from rustic or reclaimed wood, while upholstered pieces are covered in crisp linen or neutral leather. Then, we added layer upon layer of cheery textiles and prints. We started with jute and color reform wool rugs. Then, we added an ottoman also wrapped in an ethnic rug, kilim pillows, and velvety throws. The result is a space that is unified, lively, yet calm. Photos by Ambit Architecture

We made exceptional use of this large living room by creating two areas for conversational grouping. With back-to-back seating, we gave one side of the space a large and comfortable sofa and sofa chairs while the other side had two leather armchairs facing the modern fireplace. Warm browns and grays are the fundamental color palette in this space, which we then lightened up with vivid yellows and oranges through the decor and accessories.
