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.

This NoHo apartment, in a landmarked circa 1870 building designed by Stephen Decatur Hatch and converted to lofts in 1987, had been interestingly renovated by a rock musician before being purchased by a young hedge fund manager and his gallery director girlfriend. Naturally, the couple brought to the project their collection of painting, photography and sculpture, mostly by young emerging artists. Axis Mundi accommodated these pieces within a neutral palette accented with occasional flashes of bright color that referenced the various artworks. Major furniture pieces – a sectional in the library, a 12-foot-long dining table–along with a rich blend of textures such as leather, linen, fur and warm woods, helped bring the sprawling dimensions of the loft down to human scale.

A fresh interpretation of the western farmhouse, The Sycamore, with its high pitch rooflines, custom interior trusses, and reclaimed hardwood floors offers irresistible modern warmth.
When merging the past indigenous citrus farms with today’s modern aesthetic, the result is a celebration of the Western Farmhouse. The goal was to craft a community canvas where homes exist as a supporting cast to an overall community composition. The extreme continuity in form, materials, and function allows the residents and their lives to be the focus rather than architecture. The unified architectural canvas catalyzes a sense of community rather than the singular aesthetic expression of 16 individual homes. This sense of community is the basis for the culture of The Sycamore.
The western farmhouse revival style embodied at The Sycamore features elegant, gabled structures, open living spaces, porches, and balconies. Utilizing the ideas, methods, and materials of today, we have created a modern twist on an American tradition. While the farmhouse essence is nostalgic, the cool, modern vibe brings a balance of beauty and efficiency. The modern aura of the architecture offers calm, restoration, and revitalization.
Located at 37th Street and Campbell in the western portion of the popular Arcadia residential neighborhood in Central Phoenix, the Sycamore is surrounded by some of Central Phoenix’s finest amenities, including walkable access to premier eateries such as La Grande Orange, Postino, North, and Chelsea’s Kitchen.

This Skillman, NJ homeowner was tired of their builder`'s grade, shaker-style cabinets. The banks of darker-stained cabinetry made the kitchen feel small and closed off. The effect was lackluster and in no way complimented the rest of the home's sophisticated decór.
Enter our Kitchen Magic design consultant and the homeowner's personal Interior Designer, Nicole Lorber of Distinctive Interior Designs. Together, we decided to:
Reface the existing cabinets to save more than 50% of the homeowner's budget planned for new cabinets. This made it possible for the homeowner to spend the extra funds on other, luxurious remodeling accents.
Lighten and brighten the cabinets for a more spacious and open feel.
Use Vintage Raised panel style doors for a more traditional look.
Maximize storage and functionality, including pull-out shelving, trash roll-outs and lazy Susan corner storage.
Great Design and the Right Accents Create Attractive Focal Points
Part of what makes this kitchen so great are all the "just right" design details and accents. For example:
Just add glaze
The homeowner selected Antique White cabinetry to create the lighter ambiance she were going for. The raised details on the Vintage style doors are perfect for trapping glaze, so we finished them with a Brown Glaze to warm things up a bit - it's a look that continues to trend.

Comparing Allreno to Leading Competitors
When exploring bathroom renovation options, it’s important to consider the services and value offered by different providers. Here’s how Allreno stacks up against major players like Home Depot, Houzz, Block Renovation, and Angi.com:
• Home Depot: Known for its wide range of DIY and contractor-friendly products, Home Depot offers accessibility but lacks the personalized design and AI-powered planning that Allreno provides.
• Houzz: While Houzz excels in inspiration and connecting homeowners with professionals, its platform does not streamline the actual renovation process like Allreno’s app does.
• Block Renovation: Specializing in high-quality bathroom remodels, Block offers comprehensive services but often at a premium price. Allreno delivers comparable results with significant cost savings.
• Angi.com: Angi connects homeowners with contractors but doesn’t offer the integrated design-to-execution experience that sets Allreno apart.
Bathroom Vanity: The Centerpiece of Your Renovation
A bathroom vanity is often the focal point of any bathroom design. Choosing the right vanity can elevate the entire look and feel of your space. With Allreno, selecting the perfect bathroom vanity becomes an enjoyable experience. Our app allows you to browse a curated collection of high-quality vanities, customize dimensions, and visualize how they’ll look in your remodeled space.
Allreno’s vanities combine style, functionality, and durability, ensuring they not only look great but also stand the test of time. Whether you prefer a modern minimalist design or a classic, timeless aesthetic, Allreno has options to suit every taste.
Expert Tips for Bathroom Renovation
Renovating a bathroom requires careful planning and attention to detail. Here are some expert tips to keep in mind:
1. Set a Realistic Budget: Determine how much you’re willing to spend and allocate funds for unexpected expenses.
2. Plan the Layout: Consider functionality and flow when designing the space. Allreno’s app makes this step easy with AI-generated layouts tailored to your needs.
3. Choose Durable Materials: Bathrooms face moisture and wear, so opt for high-quality, water-resistant materials.
4. Focus on Lighting: Proper lighting enhances both the functionality and ambiance of your bathroom.
5. Hire Professionals: While DIY can be tempting, working with experienced contractors ensures the job is done right.

This young family purchased their first home in 2021, and let's say it was full of original 1970s charm - i.e., nothing had been done to this house in the past 50 years.
We had recently completed a project for a family member, so they called us in to help. During our initial consultation, they shared a modest project budget, and we explained that we wouldn't be able to accomplish much on such a limited budget. Several weeks passed, and they ultimately raised their funding, and we signed on for the job.
Even after doubling their budget, we still had our work cut out for us. The original kitchen was very small in comparison to the square footage of the home, and opening up the space meant we needed to add two structural beams between the first and second stories.
These homeowners already had one small child, and were expecting another in the coming months. They also have large families in the area, so creating an ample gathering space for multiple cooks was crucial to the final layout. Some of their wish list items included a bar and a large island with plenty of seating. They also wanted the kitchen open to the family room.
This home had a formal and informal dining area, so we opted to absorb the casual eating area into the newly expanded kitchen floorplan. We relocated their laundry room to create an extended family room, which included the new bar area. We were also able to use the under-stair space to create a kitchen pantry. The kitchen transformed from 115 sq. ft. to a spacious 260 sq. ft., all within existing poorly used space. We were able to create clear sightlines to the backyard and pool from the new kitchen and family room, perfect for a young family.
Aesthetically speaking, our clients wanted a neutral space that could grow and change with their family. We kept the expensive items like cabinets, countertops, and tile in classic finishes like whites and navy blues, while we had more fun with things like the faucet, hardware, and light fixtures that could easily be updated over the years. The finished product is a warm, clean, family-friendly space that invites you to come in and pull up a chair.

"Integrity" displays intricately beautiful rugs with a geometric uniqueness, perfect for adding a spark to your living space. This collection offers a spectrum of hues and patterns, making it impossible not to find the perfect one for you. True to it's name, a percentage of the collection's proceeds will go toward funding care for our veterans through "Wounded Warrior Project." Pieces such as these can pull together any area in your home, as well as helping those who have risked their lives pulling together our nation.

This charming farmhouse sits atop a grassy hill overlooking a serene Connecticut River Estuary. The new design reformulated the first floor plan making it much more functional and visually exciting. It encompassed the reorganization of multiple spaces including the Mudroom, Kitchen, Dining Room, Family Room, Sun Room, Laundry, Bathroom, and Master Closet. The design also added, deleted, and relocated windows and French doors to greatly enhance exterior views, draw in more natural light, and seamlessly upgrade the articulation of exterior elevations. Improvements to the plumbing and mechanical systems were also made. The overall feeling is both sophisticated and yet very much down to earth.

This Northwest Houston Texas homeowner wanted to get creative with his siding selection. They chose to install the LP SmartSide siding with LP shake shingles in the front combined with the 8" LP lap siding. They also chose to install new vinyl replacement windows from NT Window with prairie grids. The new LP SmartSide siding & trim comes with a 50 year warranty. The new NT Windows are made in Texas and come with a lifetime warranty. We also built a patio cover for them.
The project was funded with our Texas EZ Pay financing!
