Interior Rehab/Renovation and Rear addition for a Multi-unit residential building in the historic Little Italy neighborhood. We converted this vintage 2 flat into a lovely private residence for the owners duplexing the 1st & 2nd floors. We also designed a separate "In-Law" unit at the gardel level for rentals.
We also added a "living" Green roof which increased thermal efficiency and reduced energy costs for the owners. Probably the 1st and only Green roof in the Little Italy neighborhood for a private residence.
Overall a very positive and sustainable renovation adding tons of Value for the client and great for the environment.

A simple improvement to increase storage, organization and efficiency in a kitchen are cutlery dividers. It's the best way to minimize drawer clutter and be confident that you know exactly where the next utensil you need is. We also refaced the kitchen cabinets in white Formica, upgraded the cabinet doors with soft-close hinges and new roll out-drawers for lower cabinet storage.

In collaboration with Green Hammer, this forested lot in the West Hills achieved the goals of increased daylight, improved energy efficiency, and optimized functionality through a series of mindful space planning, finish, and fixture decisions. By re-orienting the split level stair circulation, individual yet interconnected spaces were clearly defined, while celebrating the home’s connection to its natural setting.

2013 Tour of Remodeled Home #13
This was a great home, but it was in desperate need of a kitchen remodel by Fleming Construction LLC because the original design was bulky and lacked efficiency.
"The owners needed space to cook and bake for a large family and home daycare. By removing a dysfunctional island and installing a peninsula we were able to increase workflow in the kitchen. Replacing the desk space with a 64” refrigerator and flanking it with pantries, we added a ton of storage space. We updated the old butler’s pantry into a beverage bar and spruced up
the powder room.

We completely remodeled an outdated, poorly designed kitchen that was separated from the rest of the house by a narrow doorway. We opened the wall to the dining room and framed it with an oak archway. We transformed the space with an open, timeless design that incorporates a counter-height eating and work area, cherry inset door shaker-style cabinets, increased counter work area made from Cambria quartz tops, and solid oak moldings that echo the style of the 1920's bungalow. Some of the original wood moldings were re-used to case the new energy efficient window.

A perfect balance of modern functionality and timeless elegance has been achieved in the kitchen. The optimized layout, featuring increased storage capacity and more accessible shelves, ensures efficient use of space. Sleek stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops exude contemporary sophistication, while the classic white cabinetry adds a touch of timeless charm.

Located in the heart of the Town of Gibsons BC, this multi-family residential mixed-use development aims at setting a Passive House standard on the sunshine coast. With a single glazed commercial space at grade and multiple units above, the configuration challenges the standard mixed-use typology by decreasing the commercial and prioritizing the residential above.
Each unit aims at having the feel of a single detached residence rather than of an apartment, while still coming together as part of a larger cluster to increase efficiency.

The transformed basement is a beautifully finished, functional living space with modern flooring, energy-efficient lighting, and custom design features. Now a vibrant entertainment area, home office, or gym, it enhances property value and maximizes usable square footage.

For this full kitchen remodel, we filled in one doorway. Doing so then allowed for continuous countertop space between the range and sink and an increase in storage. The dishwasher moved and is now paneled. Open shelving with brackets to display art work/dishes was incorporated. Windows were replaced and exterior walls were spray foamed in order to better the energy efficiency of the house. A Kohler Strive faucet and Vault sink were installed along with Alder cabinetry, Oak natural finish flooring, and gorgeous Atlas Granite countertops. Designed by Amy Hinck.

The origin of these classic window coverings dates back to the 19th century, when they were actually used in the harsh environment of tropical plantations to manage light and heat.
Shutters come in a wide variety of materials, colors and styles. They can increase energy efficiency, are easy to clean, and help the light control, privacy and limit sun damage. And, due to new real estate trends, home appraisers are likely to include the value of shutters when evaluating a home - making shutters a real return on investment for homeowners.

Relocating to Portland, Oregon from California, this young family immediately hired Amy to redesign their newly purchased home to better fit their needs. The project included updating the kitchen, hall bath, and adding an en suite to their master bedroom. Removing a wall between the kitchen and dining allowed for additional counter space and storage along with improved traffic flow and increased natural light to the heart of the home. This galley style kitchen is focused on efficiency and functionality through custom cabinets with a pantry boasting drawer storage topped with quartz slab for durability, pull-out storage accessories throughout, deep drawers, and a quartz topped coffee bar/ buffet facing the dining area. The master bath and hall bath were born out of a single bath and a closet. While modest in size, the bathrooms are filled with functionality and colorful design elements. Durable hex shaped porcelain tiles compliment the blue vanities topped with white quartz countertops. The shower and tub are both tiled in handmade ceramic tiles, bringing much needed texture and movement of light to the space. The hall bath is outfitted with a toe-kick pull-out step for the family’s youngest member!
