Of utmost importance to this client was a home boasting an elegant vibe – highlighting sophisticated furnishings without pretension – but with little-to-no-maintenance. Throughout the house, the designers incorporated performance fabrics that are sustainable for pets and children, offering an elegant ease that transitions from outdoor to indoor. They also focused heavily on the convenience factor, bringing the home deep into technology with media seating for a true media room; custom motorized shades in every room; TVs that reveal with a simple push of a button; and even desks that transition from a standing to seated position. Of course, you can’t have convenience without some glamour, and a former sitting room that was converted into a dressing room will make any woman’s eyes pop with envy. The to-die-for closet features power rods that float down for easy reach, a dressing mirror with wings that fold in and LED lights that change colors, a bench covered in couture fabric for distinctive perching, decadent carpeting and tons of shoe storage.

Designed for a busy, active family, this custom Redmond mudroom brings together beautiful craftsmanship, thoughtful organization, and everyday functionality. With children heavily involved in soccer and an on-the-go lifestyle, the space was designed to provide a dedicated place for the gear, shoes, jackets, bags, and essentials that come with a full family schedule.
Custom blue cabinetry provides generous concealed storage while the built-in bench, open cubbies, and hooks make frequently used items easy to access. A dramatic series of skylights floods the room with natural light, while designer wall sconces, warm wood tones, and carefully selected finishes elevate what could have been a purely utilitarian space into a polished extension of the home.
More than an entryway, the mudroom serves as an important transition between the home's three-car garage, new media/family room, and home office, creating an organized and welcoming connection between everyday family life and the home's entertaining spaces.
Built by Cutuli Homes, this space reflects our approach to custom construction: creating beautiful homes around the way our clients actually live

Having previously designed a condominium interior for this couple (the Bay Street Condo), we were retained to create a rural retreat for them near Haliburton.
The new cottage is perched at the top of a steep slope, overlooking the tranquil lake and a private beach that is scattered with old tree stumps imbedded in the sand.
The cottage is broken up into three distinct volumes, each stepped back from the next to maximize views – an entry wing with two guest bedrooms that leads to a generous screened in porch; the main volume containing living, dining and kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows that open up the interior to the views out to the lake; and the master bedroom wing that is separated from the rest of the cottage by an interior walkway glazed on both sides.
The exterior of the cottage is clad in dark wood siding that blends into the heavily treed site. The ceiling inside of Douglas fir planks continues outside under the generous roof overhangs and wraps the walls of the screened porch. Low maintenance flooring of large-scale porcelain tile evokes the look of polished concrete. A wood burning fireplace clad in rubble stone is the focal point at the end of the main living space, visually anchoring the cottage to the site.
Landscaping is minimal, preserving the site as much as possible. Subtle interventions have been introduced such as limestone steps leading from the cottage down to the lake and a seating area close to the water.

Built in 2007, this Chastain Park home was not short on space, but the design was dated and lacked the sophistication the homeowners desired. Much of the first floor was included in this renovation, completed in early 2024, including the kitchen, butler’s pantry, primary bathroom and closet, and pool bath.
The kitchen boasts all-new custom cabinetry, Danby marble countertops and backslash, a Sub-Zero/Wolf appliance package and stunning lighting. The ventilation hood was custom built to fit the range and has a curved shape and plaster finish to bring a softness to the space. The unique design of the island, with an integrated table, provides a casual space for weekday meals. A custom designed buffet hutch features antique mirrored glass doors and modern furniture legs. A bronze finish was selected for all metals to bring additional warmth.
The large, cased opening between the kitchen and keeping room was replaced by a wood wrapped beam, creating a visual connection to the wood of the kitchen island and the wood collar ties that were added to the keeping room.
The overall renovation focused heavily on creating a greater connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The keeping room doors were replaced with a 4-panel multi-slide door and the French doors of the living room were replaced with a 14-foot accordion door which opens out on to the screened porch and overlooks a new pool. A grill station and powder bath were also added to serve the pool area.

This bathroom started as a dark and heavily dated space with aging finishes and years of moisture damage. The original tub/shower surround, popcorn ceiling, worn yellow flooring, and bulky wood vanity made the room feel small, tired, and neglected. Patchwork surfaces, mismatched elements, and mold growth on the ceiling highlighted the homeowner’s need for a complete transformation—both cosmetically and structurally.
The space was reimagined into a Modern Transitional retreat that feels bright, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The new layout and materials completely elevated the room:
Large-format charcoal tiles create a sleek, modern backdrop in the shower.
A deep gray vanity with brass hardware adds warmth and sophistication.
The patterned floor tile introduces a bold, graphic element that brings the design to life.
A round black-framed mirror and updated lighting deliver softness and balance.
Fresh paint, a new quartz top, upgraded fixtures, and concealed storage create functional improvement and visual calm.
The result is a bathroom that blends modern textures with timeless finishes—turning a previously outdated room into an inviting, stylish retreat.

This custom-crafted industrial media console combines a rugged, heavy-duty dark steel skeleton with the rich, inviting warmth of solid wood. Crowned with a beautifully finished, multi-toned wood countertop and matching solid wood side panels, the piece delivers a striking contrast designed to anchor any high-end entertainment space.
The functional, dual-tier storage layout offers a versatile mix of concealed and open options. The top tier features a row of custom steel-framed drawer fronts with industrial expanded metal mesh inserts, which provide excellent ventilation for electronics and media devices. Below, two solid wood cabinet doors flank a central open shelving bay. Every door and drawer front is heavily encased in a custom-welded steel frame, perfectly showcasing the premium exterior hinges and the robust architectural metalwork of the piece.

What Is Modern Style?
Modern style has its roots in the modernist movement of the early and mid-20th century. Modern architecture and furnishings emphasize form and structure rather than surface ornamentation — think of large expanses of glass; smooth surfaces like concrete, steel, stone and wood; and accents of chrome and black leather.
Modern style is:
- Clean. Excess embellishment is considered a distraction and to be avoided. Think crisp, clean and sculptural. Shapes are strong, with clearly defined lines and planes.
- Architectural. Furnishings echo rather than distract attention from the architecture for a seamless look.
- Minimal. Modern style embraces negative space with spare furnishings and little color or pattern.
Modern style is not:
- Ornamented. A reaction against heavily ornamented traditional styles, this look embraces simplicity of form.
- Trendy. Unlike contemporary style, which taps into up-to-the-minute changes in the design world, modern design feels more securely rooted.
- Cluttered. Furnishings are chosen with care, and accessories are kept to a minimum for a clean, spacious look.

This uniquely shaped, custom-fabricated corner console showcases rugged industrial design engineered specifically to maximize a corner space. Built on a heavy-duty, angled dark steel skeleton, the unit features a distinctive triangular profile. The top surface is crafted from richly textured wood panels that are divided by a steel cross-brace and beautifully finished with a heavy steel edge banding and exposed rivet detailing, giving the piece a commanding, vintage-industrial aesthetic.
The front facade offers practical storage designed for media or general use, accessed through a bank of three custom cabinet doors. Each door features an industrial expanded metal mesh insert heavily encased in a custom-welded steel frame, which provides both a bold visual texture and excellent ventilation for electronics. Sturdy metal pull handles and exterior barrel hinges complete this highly durable, bespoke corner unit.

These homeowners came to us through a recommendation from a client who was extremely happy with the work we did for them in the past. This project was in the inner city and the homeowners tore down their old house and built their new home in its place. Keeping with the charm of the original home, the main goal for the home was to make it look like a brand new 100 year old home. We were brought on to work on the entire home with the exception of the kitchen (entry, family room, ceiling work, office/ den, living room, fireplace, window trims, 5 bedrooms, and 4 bathrooms).
In addition to our custom woodworking, these homeowners leaned heavily on our design suggestions. From an execution standpoint, this home was extremely detailed, and getting the balance from room to room and throughout the entire home was crucial for achieving the correct look. In addition, the methods and materials used 100 years ago have since had drastic improvements, making the lifetime and quality of the finished product substantially better, but also adding a higher degree of difficulty to accomplish accurate looking details.
The end result of this project was a work of art. A home that thad the appearance of a 100 year old home, with modern materials and methods to ensure quality and longevity. Everything from their dramatic entry and staircase to their floor-to-ceiling hand-finished den showcases a skill set and eye for detail essential to accomplishing the lofty goals of this home.

This complete bathroom renovation breathed new life into the space, taking it from a dated layout to a bright, sophisticated oasis. By gutting the original footprint and removing an underutilized bathtub, we maximized the room's potential and paved the way for a stunning, high-end transformation.
Key Design Features:
Luxury Walk-In Shower: The star of the renovation is the spacious walk-in shower, featuring floor-to-ceiling textured zellige-style tiling in a warm, neutral palette. Equipped with premium brushed-gold plumbing fixtures—including a traditional shower head, handheld wand, and a built-in bench—it offers a true spa-like experience.
Elegant Marble Vanity: We installed a custom vanity topped with a striking, heavily veined white marble countertop and a deep undermount sink. The rich grey and charcoal veins in the marble beautifully contrast with the gleaming brushed-gold widespread faucet and hardware.
Custom Trim & Architecture: To add character and timeless architectural interest, we introduced vertical tongue-and-groove wall paneling (beadboard/v-groove) along the walls, perfectly paired with crisp, classic trim work around the window and baseboards.
Upgraded Lighting & Details: The space is illuminated with thoughtfully placed new lighting that highlights the natural stone textures. Every detail, down to the geometric star-and-cross floor tile and the integrated wooden storage shelving, was curated to balance modern functionality with classic elegance.

This bedroom was beige and bland. Beige walls, beige carpet, beige bedding. The room needed some life, yet be a space where this busy single mother and Urgent Care physician could get some much needed rest and relaxation.
A deep, grey-purple on the walls set the stage, and fabrics in variants of heathered purple, plum, pinks and roses was chosen for the bedding. Bright, mustard yellow added some excitement to the muted tones. The custom bedding creates an environment of luxury as well as extreme comfort.
The two swivel chairs were updated with heathered purple velvet seat cushions piped in mustard yellow.
The carpet was replaced with wood-look luxury vinyl plank—a must for families with kids and dogs.
Because the client works many nights, being able to sleep during the day is a must. The ho-hum white blinds were replaced with floor to ceiling blackout drapery in embroidered linen on contemporary traverse rods.
Her existing furniture, large and heavy and dark-stained, was painted white with a grey stain and distressed heavily. This gave the furniture new life as shabby chic!
Additional lighting, updated fixtures, and carefully curated accessories round out this vibrant yet soothing space.

Lindsey and Patrick have young daughters and live in a beautiful colonial home. They spent most of their time in the family room and kitchen, and hardly used the formal living room or formal dining room. They wanted ideas on different uses for these rooms so that the family and their friends would want to spend time there. Also, their daughters are heavily into arts and crafts. All of their supplies were located in a hall closet, which was congested with materials and difficult to organize. They love the look of mid-century modern design and wanted to sprinkle elements of this aesthetic into the space.
The front formal living room was transformed into a dual-purpose space: office area for her and a craft area for the girls. Lindsey loves that she can now sit at a desk with a view of the front yard to be on her computer, while her girls create artwork just a few feet away. An art cabinet was placed in the room which has two large doors that swing out and contains a flip-down desk, with multiple bins to store and organize all the art supplies. A modern etagere divides this space from the Lounge area, carefully decorated with contemporary and modern decor. The lounge area was created as an inviting space for the adults to relax in and share drinks with their friends. They say they now use these rooms every day, and hang out there more often than in the family room!

KitchenLab Interiors’ first, entirely new construction project in collaboration with GTH architects who designed the residence. KLI was responsible for all interior finishes, fixtures, furnishings, and design including the stairs, casework, interior doors, moldings and millwork. KLI also worked with the client on selecting the roof, exterior stucco and paint colors, stone, windows, and doors. The homeowners had purchased the existing home on a lakefront lot of the Valley Lo community in Glenview, thinking that it would be a gut renovation, but when they discovered a host of issues including mold, they decided to tear it down and start from scratch. The minute you look out the living room windows, you feel as though you're on a lakeside vacation in Wisconsin or Michigan. We wanted to help the homeowners achieve this feeling throughout the house - merging the causal vibe of a vacation home with the elegance desired for a primary residence. This project is unique and personal in many ways - Rebekah and the homeowner, Lorie, had grown up together in a small suburb of Columbus, Ohio. Lorie had been Rebekah's babysitter and was like an older sister growing up. They were both heavily influenced by the style of the late 70's and early 80's boho/hippy meets disco and 80's glam, and both credit their moms for an early interest in anything related to art, design, and style. One of the biggest challenges of doing a new construction project is that it takes so much longer to plan and execute and by the time tile and lighting is installed, you might be bored by the selections of feel like you've seen them everywhere already. “I really tried to pull myself, our team and the client away from the echo-chamber of Pinterest and Instagram. We fell in love with counter stools 3 years ago that I couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger on, thank god, because then they started showing up literally everywhere", Rebekah recalls. Lots of one of a kind vintage rugs and furnishings make the home feel less brand-spanking new. The best projects come from a team slightly outside their comfort zone. One of the funniest things Lorie says to Rebekah, "I gave you everything you wanted", which is pretty hilarious coming from a client to a designer.
