The custom color blue paint brightens the kitchen and is one of the most dynamic parts of the kitchen. The true Marble Counters and old-world Bright Brass Hardware bring back the history of the home.

In the heart of Salt Lake City, the historic Asher Adams Hotel blends timeless architecture with modern luxury. As part of its elegant renovation, each guestroom was fitted with white powder-coated Reggio Registers, adding subtle style to the walls and ceilings.

The kitchen was expanded in this 1930's home to be more functional for a 21st century growing family. It was important to our client to maintain the charm and the architectural authenticity she loved growing up as a child. One of the more challenging features was rebuilding the beautiful lead glass windows so they would be both historically accurate as well as functional for today's climate extremes. Another challenge was recreating the black and white tile floor. Each tile was custom cut to achieve the desired look. A custom made built-in bench and cushion were made for the breakfast nook, complete with storage drawers beneath.

This historic Story Hill neighborhood home got a full kitchen remodel that stayed true to the original charm of the rest of the home, yet provided additional functionality. We preserved the galley layout but re-designed the work triangle. The crown jewel of this kitchen is the 19th century barn beam, custom fit, over the range. A hutch-style pantry was designed to replicate a vintage china hutch, with antique mirrors added to the cabinet doors for added character. The small space was maximized by adding a multi-functional breakfast bar and a locker system to organize a busy family. This once cramped kitchen gained modern efficiency and retained its original charm!

A succession of everyday spaces occupied the lower floor of this restored 18th century castle on the hillside.
The existing estate illustrating a period clouded by historic neglect.
The restoration plan for this castle house focused on increasing its spatial value, its open space architecture and re-positioning of its windows. The garden made it possible to enhance the depth of the view over the rooftops and the Baixa river. An existing addition was rebuilt to house to conduct more private and entertainment functions.
The unexpected discovery of an old and buried wellhead and cistern in the center of the house was a pleasant surprise to the architect and owners.

During this extensive home renovation, we created space for a cozy breakfast nook by removing a hidden staircase. This area now serves as a functional and stylish spot for our clients to sit and enjoy their morning coffee. We love the modern rattan counter stools.

This Minneapolis attic was transformed from a long-neglected space into a refined bonus room and full bath. TreHus reinforced the structure, leveled floors and ceilings, and preserved original details such as the antique clawfoot tub. The result is a warm, functional retreat that connects seamlessly with the restored 1901 historical home below.

This traditional kitchen, nestled in a charming 1920s home in a historic Chicago neighborhood, beautifully blends classic design with modern functionality. Taupe-painted cabinets lend a soft, timeless elegance, while a rich walnut island adds warmth and a touch of natural sophistication. Glass-fronted cabinets showcase heirloom dishware, and the farmhouse sink offers both practicality and a nod to vintage charm. The stunning quartzite countertops bring a contemporary edge to the space, with their subtle veining and durable beauty. Together, these elements create a kitchen that honors the past while embracing the comfort and style of today.

Dual faucets work in tandem with the multi-function workstation sink.
