We designed the upper cabinetry to fit around the homeowners’ existing pot rack and the base cabinetry to accommodate two built-in ovens. The sleek, silver bar pulls complement the grey and charcoal tones of the kitchen and the pale granite counter tops. Displayed seashells accentuate the space’s beach style. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

A classic white kitchen is always in style and looks great in any home. This kitchen has modern touches with the slate tile floor and the stainless steel appliances, but the cool white cabinets and island gives the kitchen that classic look. The wall of ceiling to floor cabinetry was designed to fit flush with the left side of the walling and provide the perfect pantry area. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

This kitchen was designed and handcrafted for an Italian chef who loves to entertain large family gatherings. The sage green cabinets were handcrafted by our Caves Millwork Custom Cabinetry Brand to complement the white cabinetry. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

A large island with a dark quartz counter top is perfect for entertaining guests and was included to meet the homeowner's ideals. The cabinets in this kitchen are extended all the way to the ceiling to provide more storage space and a long, elegant style. - Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

The tall pantry at the end opens up to roll out shelves, perfect for easy and efficient storage. When you open the doors interior LED strip lights down each side illuminate the cabinet's contents.

The Grandview is the epitome of unfussy, extra-useful industrial lighting. We designed it with adjustable heads that let you choose the angle of light you want, making this chandelier ideal for illuminating multiple spots on library table or kitchen island. Crafted of solid brass, the Grandview features turnkey sockets (meaning you can turn each light on or off separately) and a single canopy (meaning you need only one junction box for three lights). To take the guesswork out of measuring, it's available in four fixed lengths.

Our finished cherry cabinets are accented using a subtle, flat panel design. The sink is framed with stylish columns made from the same cherry wood as the rest of the cabinetry. This bright kitchen creates a cheerful atmosphere with its unique and creative use of vibrant colors. - Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

Modern appliances are framed by soft white maple cabinets to maximize storage space. We designed a lighted cabinet display on the kitchen's peninsula to complement the bright kitchen and add a sophisticated touch. - Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey

The abundance of open space, light, neutral tones, and seaside décor give this kitchen a true feeling of the beach style. We designed the cabinetry to fit the lifestyle of the homeowners; to accommodate lots of people and cooking in the same area while keeping the kitchen open to the rest of the house. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

A fun project for us, the homeowners had a clear idea of how they wanted their kitchen to look and be used. They wanted a simple and casual place to have a cup of tea with their friends and family. The kitchen was designed to feel old with the visible cabinet brackets and the bare wood knobs and unfinished cabinets. The sparkling lights were the final touch in making this kitchen a fun and eclectic room for everyone to enjoy. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

We are so excited about this stylish Houston patio addition! It's one of our most recent outdoor living space design projects - and one of our new favorites! We particularly love the rustic corner fireplace, the beautiful, vaulted pine ceiling and the Restoration Hardware furniture and accessories. "Even though this space has an outdoor kitchen - often the highlight of our projects - the focus here is beautiful, comfortable outdoor living," says Outdoor Homescapes of Houston owner Wayne Franks. "And I have to say, I think this is one of the most gorgeous spaces we've created for doing that - in style." "This project was special from the start, as we were creating this space for a friend of Wayne’s who had been a long time mentor to his boys growing up," adds Lisha Maxey, owner of LGH Designs in Houston (she coordinated furniture and finishes for the project). "This client was the principal of their high school and knew all of them very well and Wayne, too. This made it very personal, indeed, and we wanted everything to be perfect!" The 23- by 16-foot addition, located at the back of the house in Cypress, looks out onto a manmade lake in the homeowners' subdivision. The focal point? A 9-foot-8-inch-high-by-7-foot-wide corner fireplace in Earth Grey rustic ledgestone from Colorstone in Houston. The fireplace features a custom wooden mantel, stone bench seating and a 52-inch Sunbrite outdoor TV. Another highlight is the flooring - silver travertine tile laid out in a Versailles pattern. "We chose silver travertine in a 'Tumbled' color palette with variations of cream and brown," says Lisha. "So we had those two colors, plus grey, to pull from." The 7-foot-long, stucco outdoor kitchen island's countertops are also noteworthy - Absolute Black granite in a leathered finish offering a modern look and a dark grey hue that works perfectly with the color palette. The kitchen island also houses an RCS 30-inch grill and fridge. The seating area includes a sectional couch, coffee table, two swivel chairs and two ottomans - all from Restoration Hardware. "We used Restoration Hardware's Biscayne sectional, swivel chairs and ottomans in gray, with textured linen weave in Sand and cushions and peacock accent pillows in gray," says Lisha. The coffee table is made of solid teak with a concrete top - as is the matching side table. "We added a console table, also in teak, behind the sofa. And for accents, we added three Amalfi lanterns from Restoration Hardware in weathered zinc." A Sunbrella® Heathered area rug (in Gray) was added to anchor the space and visually tie it together. "The space as a whole leans towards a transitional style, in that it has many traditional cozy comforts and colors, but the furniture gives it a more contemporary look," says Lisha. "The idea from the beginning was to marry these two styles, as our clients wanted a look that would not age and be in vogue for years to come." On the exterior, you can see how we worked to make the addition blend with the existing home - matching the shingles and stucco and continuing the landscaping. 3D graphic renderings and a virtual video tour allowed the clients to know exactly what the space would look like beforehand. "It takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process," says Outdoor Homescapes' graphic designer, Kristy Buell Franks. "Floor plans and elevation drawings are good for giving an idea of the overall scope of the project, but it's the 3D renderings that really show what the space is going to look like." The 3D graphics and video tours also help immensely when choosing finishing materials and furniture, she says: "The clients' choices can be put into the design to allow the clients to see how the materials will work with the existing materials on the house and how the furniture will look in the space."
