Design rendering for a living room remodel in San Ramon,
California, by Taragano Design & Build.
Opening a ceiling to the roof structure creates volume and takes
away the surface that used to hold the light. Skylights were placed
in the new vault to replace what the flat ceiling was providing,
which is the part homeowners underestimate when they ask to raise a
ceiling.
The fireplace was kept low and linear rather than built up as a
mass. In a room this tall, a full height stone chimney would pull
all the weight to one end. Holding the firebox down and letting the
wall run plain above it keeps the height reading as height rather
than as something to fill.
Shelving is recessed into the wall on both sides so nothing
projects into a room whose whole quality is uninterrupted plane.
Storage was given to a low cabinet below rather than to anything
that would break the surface.
The tall window sits above the door line to bring light in without
adding another opening at eye level, where the wall is doing
compositional work.

Never underestimate the difference a little tile/paint can make! Homeowner said "feels like I'm at a hotel resort spa" -- music to my ears! Note -- tile on back shower wall continued at chair rail height to window.
