When our clients made the move from East to West coast, they wanted to bring parts of their past along with them. Blending New York style with the relaxed, coastal vibe of La Jolla’s Wind & Sea community offered a unique design challenge and opportunity.
From the outset, the bathrooms and kitchen were identified as the primary focus of this renovation. The aim was to weave the couple's distinctive style into the design while integrating modern touches.
As we explored these priorities, we found that increasing the square footage would not only expand their living space but also make room for the corner fireplace they had been dreaming of. This addition would enhance both the functionality and the ambiance of the home, aligning perfectly with their vision for a more spacious and cozy living environment.
The design approach embraced a contemporary aesthetic through simple black and white color blocking, complemented by unique fixtures and fittings. To create a balanced and inviting atmosphere, the design incorporated natural light by way of skylights and larger windows, which helped highlight the deep wood grain cabinetry. Whimsical art and furnishings further personalized the space, infusing it with character and warmth.

Framed by a sweeping wall of glass doors and clerestory windows, this coastal-inspired living room embraces natural light and waterfront views with effortless grace. Multiple cream-hued sofas and accent chairs are thoughtfully arranged to encourage conversation and relaxation, while jewel-toned throw pillows inject vibrant personality into the soft-toned palette. Wide-plank hardwood floors anchor the open layout, leading the eye toward a sleek stacked-stone fireplace that balances texture and sophistication. A sculptural arc floor lamp provides ambient lighting above the main seating zone, while sheer white drapes soften the transition between indoor and outdoor living. Decorative elements like glass vessels, metallic accents, and custom shelving infuse the space with curated warmth. From everyday lounging to elegant entertaining, this modern interior blends comfort and openness in a setting designed to showcase the view.

Located in San Rafael's sunny Dominican neighborhood, this East Coast-style brown shingle needed an infusion of color and pattern for a young family. Against the white walls in the combined entry and living room, we mixed mid-century silhouettes with bold blue, orange, lemon, and magenta shades. The living area segues to the dining room, which features an abstract graphic patterned wall covering. Across the way, a bright open kitchen allows for ample food prep and dining space. Outside we painted the poolhouse ombre teal. On the interior, we echoed the same fun colors of the home.

Opposite the utilitarian area, is a custom built-in bench flanked by cabinetry to create a dining space along the table and Arteriors chairs.

In this farmhouse-inspired bathroom remodeling project, our clients sought to transition from an outdated and lackluster pink bathroom to a fresh and functional space with ample storage and a shower instead of a bathtub. To achieve their vision, we implemented a range of changes that completely transformed the room. The choice of polished nickel hardware added a touch of sophistication and seamlessly complemented the overall farmhouse aesthetic. The vanity underwent a complete makeover, with a fresh coat of paint and new countertops, instantly revitalizing the space. To enhance functionality, we incorporated additional storage solutions to maximize organization. The flooring was upgraded with elevated tiles that perfectly matched the shower tiles, creating a cohesive and visually appealing look. A new faucet and showerhead, coordinated with the polished nickel hardware, provided a polished and unified appearance. The addition of new farmhouse-inspired lighting fixtures completed the overall design, infusing the space with warmth and charm. The end result was a stunning farmhouse-style bathroom that not only addressed the homeowners' desire for more storage and a shower but also breathed new life into the space, making it a delightful and inviting retreat.

Intentional. Elevated. Artisanal.
With three children under the age of 5, our clients were starting to feel the confines of their Pacific Heights home when the expansive 1902 Italianate across the street went on the market. After learning the home had been recently remodeled, they jumped at the chance to purchase a move-in ready property. We worked with them to infuse the already refined, elegant living areas with subtle edginess and handcrafted details, and also helped them reimagine unused space to delight their little ones.
Elevated furnishings on the main floor complement the home’s existing high ceilings, modern brass bannisters and extensive walnut cabinetry. In the living room, sumptuous emerald upholstery on a velvet side chair balances the deep wood tones of the existing baby grand. Minimally and intentionally accessorized, the room feels formal but still retains a sharp edge—on the walls moody portraiture gets irreverent with a bold paint stroke, and on the the etagere, jagged crystals and metallic sculpture feel rugged and unapologetic. Throughout the main floor handcrafted, textured notes are everywhere—a nubby jute rug underlies inviting sofas in the family room and a half-moon mirror in the living room mixes geometric lines with flax-colored fringe.
On the home’s lower level, we repurposed an unused wine cellar into a well-stocked craft room, with a custom chalkboard, art-display area and thoughtful storage. In the adjoining space, we installed a custom climbing wall and filled the balance of the room with low sofas, plush area rugs, poufs and storage baskets, creating the perfect space for active play or a quiet reading session. The bold colors and playful attitudes apparent in these spaces are echoed upstairs in each of the children’s imaginative bedrooms.

This project took APD to the Oregon Coast for the remodel of two beach house bathrooms! The primary suite was gutted - removing an unused jetted tub in favor of an expansive corner vanity. The shower was opened up by removing an awkwardly located tall cabinet and by swapping a full height wall in favor for a pony wall with glass above. The bathroom is bathed in natural light via the skylight and frosted casement window. A luxurious shower experience was created with ceiling mount rain shower head, wall mount fixed shower head, hand shower on slider bar, and a modern waterfall slab shower bench with integrated niche. A subtle coastal vibe was created with the blue, white, and sandy gray color palette while artistic light fixtures fixtures, clean lined matte black plumbing, and straight stacked tile infuse modernity. In the hall bathroom, a cohesive design was created with added playfulness from the patterned floor tile!
