This project was featured in Midwest Home magazine as the winner of ASID Life in Color. The addition of a kitchen with custom shaker-style cabinetry and a large shiplap island is perfect for entertaining and hosting events for family and friends. Quartz counters that mimic the look of marble were chosen for their durability and ease of maintenance. Open shelving with brass sconces above the sink create a focal point for the large open space. Putting a modern spin on the traditional nautical/coastal theme was a goal. We took the quintessential palette of navy and white and added pops of green, stylish patterns, and unexpected artwork to create a fresh bright space. Grasscloth on the back of the built in bookshelves and console table along with rattan and the bentwood side table add warm texture. Finishes and furnishings were selected with a practicality to fit their lifestyle and the connection to the outdoors. A large sectional along with the custom cocktail table in the living room area provide ample room for game night or a quiet evening watching movies with the kids.

Step into this Elegant Torrance Kitchen Remodel, where timeless design meets modern functionality. The centerpiece of this kitchen is a stunning dual-tone island, featuring rich wood contrasted against the sleek white cabinetry. It's not just for show; the expansive countertop space makes it perfect for meal prep and casual dining. We went with a classic subway tile backsplash in a herringbone pattern, adding just the right amount of texture to the clean, neutral palette. Stainless steel appliances and a custom range hood bring a professional-grade touch, while glass-front upper cabinets provide a stylish display for glassware and dishware. Lighting was a game-changer here. We installed a trio of pendant lights over the island, casting beautiful patterns that enhance the overall ambiance. The open layout ensures an easy flow between cooking, dining, and entertaining. For this Torrance home, the goal was simple: combine elegance with everyday practicality, and we think it hit the mark beautifully.

Just wrapped up an incredible kitchen remodel and couldn’t be happier with the results! Under the guidance of our amazing Project Manager, Tony Cicchino, and the talented Designer, Justina Auer, this kitchen looks unrecognizable from the Before pictures. We opted to maintain the existing layout but injected a dash of brilliance with additional cabinetry, elevating both form and function. The decision to remove overhead wall cabinets above the peninsula really started to open up the space, allowing for a more seamless and spacious feel. We also bid adieu to the faux beams to gain a fluid perspective throughout the room. The clever addition of a pantry cabinet and additional storage space on the backside of the peninsula really expanded the storage universe. By lifting the microwave off the counter, we gained valuable extra counter space. The hidden pull-out trash under the counter is a game-changer for convenience. We embraced a clean and timeless palette of simple whites and grays, making the space a perfect canvas for personal touches. This kitchen is now a masterpiece that marries practicality with panache!

Practical but striking built-in cabinetry houses the television, electronics, and other necessities, while creating a second focal point directly opposite the imposing fireplace. The family has a young child, so DVDs, games and toys are within reach yet tidily concealed. The back of the bookshelves is painted light gray to contrast with the white millwork. The collection of accessories is the icing on the cake. Gordon Beall Photography

This growing family wanted a welcoming retreat for visiting grandparents, so Better Builders transformed their basement into a bright, functional living space. The remodel added a private bedroom, full bathroom, and laundry closet, while the walkout design provided guests with convenient, separate access. Thoughtful details like a built-in desk under the stairs, custom shelving for games and books, and an updated fireplace make the space both practical and inviting. With careful attention to natural light, the basement feels open and airy—perfect for family living and hosting guests.

Our clients were relocating from the upper peninsula to the lower peninsula and wanted to design a retirement home on their Lake Michigan property. The topography of their lot allowed for a walk out basement which is practically unheard of with how close they are to the water. Their view is fantastic, and the goal was of course to take advantage of the view from all three levels. The positioning of the windows on the main and upper levels is such that you feel as if you are on a boat, water as far as the eye can see. They were striving for a Hamptons / Coastal, casual, architectural style. The finished product is just over 6,200 square feet and includes 2 master suites, 2 guest bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, sunroom, home bar, home gym, dedicated seasonal gear / equipment storage, table tennis game room, sauna, and bonus room above the attached garage. All the exterior finishes are low maintenance, vinyl, and composite materials to withstand the blowing sands from the Lake Michigan shoreline.

The transformation of this outdated kitchen was nothing short of remarkable, as it evolved into a tranquil and inviting space infused with subtle hues of peaceful blue. A dramatic shift was initiated by removing the outdated, yellow-toned wood cabinets, which instantly brightened and modernized the room. By strategically removing select cabinets and replacing them with floating shelves, the space gained an airy and open feel, allowing for both practical storage and stylish display. The decision to square off the layout by eliminating an awkward landing/island and introducing a spacious, 11-foot island with barstool counter space proved to be a game-changer, enhancing flow and functionality while maximizing the room's potential. To further enhance the serene ambiance, subtle shades of peaceful blues and greens were introduced between the backsplash and lower cabinets, creating a soothing backdrop for culinary endeavors. The cool blue tones were elegantly complemented by the addition of gold hardware, adding a touch of sophistication and warmth to the space. The result? A peaceful and bright kitchen that seamlessly blends style with functionality, providing the perfect setting for both cooking and entertaining alike.

This stunning basement remodel seamlessly blends sophistication with functionality, creating the ultimate entertainment and relaxation space. A sleek glass entryway sets the tone for a modern aesthetic, leading into a fully equipped bar area with rich wood cabinetry, a striking quartz island, and elegant black hardware. The adjacent lounge is designed for ultimate comfort, featuring a plush sectional, custom-built media center, and illuminated display shelving, perfect for showcasing collectibles. For gaming enthusiasts, a dedicated pinball nook and framed sports memorabilia infuse personality and energy into the space. A private, glass-enclosed fitness room ensures that workouts stay within easy reach, while the spa-like bathroom with a walk-in shower and matte black fixtures adds a touch of luxury. Warm wood flooring, layered lighting, and a thoughtful open layout make this basement an entertainer’s dream—offering the perfect blend of style and practicality.

Built by Schumacher Homes, America's Largest Custom Home Builder, this stunning Windsor II Modern Farmhouse in Whitestown, Indiana, effortlessly balances classic architectural details with modern charm. Inspired by the popular Windsor plan, this layout maximizes spatial volume and natural light on the main level with soaring 10-foot ceilings. The open-concept first floor seamlessly connects the family room, dining area, and kitchen into an expansive heart of the home perfect for hosting gatherings. To blend luxury with practicality, custom built-in shelving is integrated throughout the home, including a dedicated home office featuring organized open shelving paired with premium cabinetry to keep the workspace immaculate. For ultimate privacy, the luxurious first-floor owner’s retreat serves as a quiet main-level sanctuary. This primary suite offers abundant organization with two separate, oversized walk-in closets, ensuring no shortage of storage space. The spa-like owner's bath is designed for a premium getaway experience, beautifully appointed with a contemporary freestanding soaking tub and a meticulously detailed custom tile shower. Upstairs, 9-foot ceilings maintain an airy, elevated feel across an entertainment-focused second floor. The second-story loft features a show-stopping mini wet bar complete with a custom wine storage piece, serving as the perfect transition into the adjacent media room. Engineered for ultimate comfort, this space is designed as a cozy in-home theater featuring authentic tiered seating, ensuring there isn’t a bad seat in the house for family movie nights or weekend game days.

The goal of this extensive remodel was to bring a home that was distinctly 80s into the present. Our clients were an active family with three rambunctious, growing boys. Durability and practicality were high priorities. The homeowners wanted to create a space where both adults and children were at home, and that included feminine touches for Mom. We knew they’d need storage and space to play, so we transformed the formal dining room into a dedicated playroom with plenty of built-ins for toys, puzzles, books, and board games. We took two impractical spaces and removed the center wall, creating a bunk room that feels fort-like and imaginative. For the parents, we created a haven in their primary suite with a proper sitting area surrounding a fireplace as well as a shower/bath wet room. New front doors and window treatments were installed to enhance the natural light and complement the much-improved aesthetic.
