After a lot of brainstorming and sharing of ideas, we had settled on a kintsugi style approach to repair the table. In Japan, the technique of repairing broken pottery using molten gold is an artform meant to accentuate flaws and present them as strengths. We used a bronze pigment to match the beautiful, exotic grain of the walnut slabs native to the area the table was made. We also employed carpentry techniques that will limit the expansion and stressors on the wood, and resin so the table will endure for years!

Our Japanese Wall Stencil Collection allows you to explore your inner Geisha. These delicate, lovely stencil motifs taken from classic Japanese designs were traditionally used to decorate Kimonos, lacquer boxes, and ornamental floor screens.

And though the one-bedroom apartment is small in size, our client needed a second convertible bedroom in her apartment for her parents when they visit from Japan. Frosted glass sliding doors were cleverly added to the end of the living room to divide the space to allow for a second bedroom and a home office, without taking any daylight away from the living room. In the guest area, Ashley introduced a round graphic black and white patterned rug for added personality, while minimal floating iron and glass shelves provide both extra surfaces and added visual interest.
A gallery wall featuring rows of carefully installed personal and family photos line the petite hallway that leads to the master suite. Our client requested a crisp black and white bedroom so Ashley used a wide variety of materials to give the room warmth through material instead of color. Ashley also once again brought in a textured white rug to work as a focal point and to make the room appear as large as possible. She kept furnishings timeless and pared back but full of strength thanks to their moody matte gray tones and symmetrical setup. A single armed sturdy clothing rack was also brought in to help our client better prepare for the day ahead every morning.

Inspired by their years in Japan and California and their Scandinavian heritage, we updated this 1938 home with a earthy palette and clean lines.
Rift-cut white oak cabinetry, white quartz counters and a soft green tile backsplash are balanced with details that reference the home's history.
Classic light fixtures soften the modern elements.
We created a new arched opening to the living room and removed the trim around other doorways to enlarge them and mimic original arched openings.
Removing an entry closet and breakfast nook opened up the overall footprint and allowed for a functional work zone that includes great counter space on either side of the range, when they had none before.

Originating hundreds of years ago in Japan, Rain Chains act as linked funnels and are a decorative alternative to a cheerless gutter downspout. Rainwater playfully dances and flows down these handcrafted copper channels as it is guided from the rooftop to the ground. You will pray for rain once you attach your Rain Chain. A natural patina will develop on the polished copper styles over time, adding to the character and charm of these delightful chains.

It was really important to us to be able to high small appliances out of site when they aren’t in use, so we incorporated two 4-foot long appliance garages on either side of the range wall.

“Japan is a group of islands surrounded by oceans and seas” writes Dr. Koichi Kawana in “The Garden – Symbols & Esthetics”. Dr. Kawana continues, “From ancient times, the Japanese people had an affinity for the sea […and] one is suppose to be able to enjoy the tranquility of the sea.”
