The goal for this Point Loma home was to transform it from the adorable beach bungalow it already was by expanding its footprint and giving it distinctive Craftsman characteristics while achieving a comfortable, modern aesthetic inside that perfectly caters to the active young family who lives here. By extending and reconfiguring the front portion of the home, we were able to not only add significant square footage, but create much needed usable space for a home office and comfortable family living room that flows directly into a large, open plan kitchen and dining area. A custom built-in entertainment center accented with shiplap is the focal point for the living room and the light color of the walls are perfect with the natural light that floods the space, courtesy of strategically placed windows and skylights. The kitchen was redone to feel modern and accommodate the homeowners busy lifestyle and love of entertaining. Beautiful white kitchen cabinetry sets the stage for a large island that packs a pop of color in a gorgeous teal hue. A Sub-Zero classic side by side refrigerator and Jenn-Air cooktop, steam oven, and wall oven provide the power in this kitchen while a white subway tile backsplash in a sophisticated herringbone pattern, gold pulls and stunning pendant lighting add the perfect design details. Another great addition to this project is the use of space to create separate wine and coffee bars on either side of the doorway. A large wine refrigerator is offset by beautiful natural wood floating shelves to store wine glasses and house a healthy Bourbon collection. The coffee bar is the perfect first top in the morning with a coffee maker and floating shelves to store coffee and cups. Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) flooring was selected for use throughout the home, offering the warm feel of hardwood, with the benefits of being waterproof and nearly indestructible - two key factors with young kids!
For the exterior of the home, it was important to capture classic Craftsman elements including the post and rock detail, wood siding, eves, and trimming around windows and doors. We think the porch is one of the cutest in San Diego and the custom wood door truly ties the look and feel of this beautiful home together.

For this Brooklyn condo renovation, Gallery Kitchen and Bath updated the entire kitchen and both bathrooms, as well as painted and laid out new flooring throughout the entire apartment. The owners wanted to unite the seeming medley of the existing space into a cohesive design more representative of their own style. With its ultra-high ceilings and exposed joints and beams, the space already lent itself to the farmhouse look. The end result is a modernized, eclectic farmhouse style that we keenly carried throughout the home.
MORE DETAILS
Compelling textures and color combos reign supreme. The kitchen features semi-custom Shaker-style stone gray cabinets, a white subway tile backsplash running all the way up the wall, and white quartz countertops. We built the island in part to create a pleasing yet efficient flow from the kitchen into the living and dining areas as the space was opened up. We also painted the plumbing stack white to not make it stand out.
We also redesigned the bathrooms, giving each a unique treatment. In the master bath, we took a Victorian-goes-modern approach with coral walls, champagne fixtures, and a clawfoot tub. In the guest bathroom, we stuck to a transitional style that approaches modern without becoming contemporary, pairing herringbone marble floor tiles with a mix of subway and penny tiles on the walls and in the shower. Both maintain elements, such as tiles, fixtures, and colors, that coordinate with the overall eclectic farmhouse look.
HOW WE COLLABORATE
Collaboration with our clients to their desired degree is one of our core pillars. In this condo renovation, the clients wanted central air and were initially considering a true central air system. We advised against it, as not only would it take away from the unique beauty of unusually tall ceilings by adding unsightly ductwork, but it would also significantly detract from the farmhouse look. Instead, we suggested a mini-split system. Our recommended units were both cost-effective and much more complementary to the comprehensive theme. Of course, we ultimately always honor the clients’ choices but it’s just as important to us that we make sure to provide all the necessary information so our clients can make educated decisions that are best for their needs.
SPACE PLANNING
Another key element of the renovation process is space planning. From this perspective, we consider the placement and positioning of objects with regard to the overall flow of space. The building where this renovation took place is U-shaped at one end, which happens to be where this particular apartment is located. Uniquely-shaped spaces naturally require more concentration than those built in the standard rectangular shape. Questions we consider include: Where will people really spend time in this space? What will the flow of foot traffic be? Is there easy access to the kitchen island? Does it flow well into the hallways? Does the island protrude into anything? Working in New York, with its variety of homes and architectural styles, has greatly developed our experience with standard spaces and unconventional ones alike.
SOME HIGHLIGHTS
- Ultra-tall ceilings, allowing for stacked cabinets in the kitchen, as well as long pendant light fixtures and more chandeliers than usual throughout the home
- Completely refurbished cast iron clawfoot tub in one bathroom, with a 270-degree shower curtain around the tub
- Vibrant color choices, including an all-blue bedroom in various shades
- Treated exposed brick walls
Fun Fact: A client once showed us inspiration photos that they sourced online of this exact project, having no idea it was one of ours.

Suzan and John's home was delightful in many ways, but the kitchen was cut-off from the flow of the rest of the house, ending in an awkward hall that opened to a guest room on one side and a utility closet at the other. A bathroom was in close proximity but due to the patchwork layout felt miles away. The goal was to update the kitchen and reestablish the connection from the dining room all the way back to the guest bedroom accommodations, while making the whole space ADA accessible. The homes mixture of Mid-Century Modern and New Mexico Bungalow styles influenced the simple planes of line, color, and materials used. One key feature was the bar counter. The bar connects the kitchen and dining rooms but is also part of the entry sequence and needed to tie the potentially competing home styles together. The soap stone counter material selected picks up on the steel dining room window, and the wood casing at the opening subtly eases the eye from the front of the home through to the kitchen and beyond. An unexpected benefit of the remodel is the ability to use the guest bedroom primarily as an office most of the time, leaving the dining room and adjacent areas where work was done in the past clutter-free. The result is an elegant space that meets the needs of the clients while staying true to the unique mix of styles they love.

With the intention of moving closer to the beach this home was bought to become the ideal beach home, to take full advantage of all the benefits that San Clemente could offer and the beautiful climate Southern California is known for. The two key features of the remodel would be to open up to the incredible view and to make the threshold of inside and outside disappear. The roof pitch was altered to allow vaulted ceilings in both the new great room and the master suite. This also opened up to the view and allowed large sliding doors to pocket and slide away to create an easy flow out to the new deck.

How do you modernize modernism on a budget? This house had charming midcentury character and lots of potential but had been neglected for many years and was sorely in need of a refresh to bring it up to modern standards of comfort, finish, and sustainability. The tight budget dictated that it would not be a down-to-the-studs, gut remodel, but more of a surgical intervention.
Built in 1955, the house had settled on the downhill side, making the floors slope almost 4” from the front to the back of the house. Using an innovative and inexpensive push-pile method, the foundation was reinforced and the house was jacked back up. It now sits solidly on bedrock and the floor is level to within a half-inch throughout.
Inside, the original kitchen was worn and needed replacement. This presented an opportunity to remove the walls separating it from the living and dining area and create a wide-open great room with a peninsula counter for guests to gather and an almost continuous wall of windows to take in views of the hills, trees, and bay.
Throughout the rest of the house, most finishes were restored, or replaced when necessary. Wood floors were refinished, and new cork flooring, a slightly less durable but much less expensive alternative to tile and similar materials, was used in all wet areas, with the added benefit of warmth and resiliency. The existing textured walls and ceilings were skim-coated smooth with plaster, dark beams painted white, and existing wood wall paneling in the living room was cleaned and color-matched where new pieces were required. All of the existing frameless, direct-glazed windows were replaced with double pane units, and a new floor-to-ceiling window on the south side of the living room provides a key source of natural light.
In the bathrooms, existing tile and vanities were saved, and a strangely colored tub and sinks were re-glazed. Flooring, toilets, lighting, double medicine cabinets, and paint in each space make these mostly unaltered rooms feel new again.
Sustainability and comfort upgrades include an induction range (step one of an eventual transition to full electrification), spray foam insulation under the floor, spray-in cellulose in the walls, and warm-dim LED lighting throughout on a simple whole-house control system. Combined with a modern thermostat, the house’s systems are all accessible via app from anywhere.
And the most sustainable feature of all? What we didn’t do: tear it down and start over. In a country that demolishes a million homes a year- 1% of our residential housing stock- reusing an existing home is the greenest solution of all.

This wonderful bespoke country kitchen was designed and built for our clients’ new oak-framed extension at their Grade II listed home in the historic village of Billingshurst in West Sussex. Acorn Bespoke Carpentry and Joinery undertook the entire kitchen project which includes a hidden walk-in pantry, bar unit and solid hardwood windows.
The owners wanted to achieve a high-quality interior that stayed true to the traditional character and heritage of their property. Their keen eye for design is evident in their chosen sophisticated colour palette and finishes.
An AGA® was to be a focal point and key feature of the kitchen layout, and we designed the cabinetry to align perfectly with the extra depth and height of the cooker, leaving no unsightly gaps.
There are no upper wall cabinets in this kitchen which creates an open airy feel and allows more natural light. Instead, a run of generous base cabinets with customised deep drawers and pull-outs, as well as a kitchen island, open shelving and large pantry provide a wealth of superb storage solutions. One empty wall has been dedicated for full-height floor to ceiling cabinets for integrated appliances and a pantry.
Traditional style with a modern twist
The custom-made cabinets have been traditionally constructed in an authentic shaker-style and feature solid oak dovetailed drawers. The doors and frames are in solid maple, which has a smooth grain and is an extremely hard and durable timber, and perfect for taking a painted finish.
The cabinets are all spraypainted in Fired Earth Moon Grape, a deliciously distinctive purple-black colour. We then hand painted exterior surfaces for a textured effect which can also be easily touched up in the future. The shaker style in this striking dark colour adds grandeur to the space, without feeling too overbearing or showy.
All the kitchen cabinets are internally finished with premium quality Egger MFC. The hardwearing Unistone worktops are Nero Assoluto with a Velluto finish - a durable, jet black, velvet-like black texture, which gives depth without gloss.
Hidden walk-in pantry
Floor-to-ceiling doors neatly conceal an impressive hidden walk-in pantry, which we cleverly integrated into the overall kitchen design. As soon as you open the doors, the interior shelves are automatically illuminated by a motion-activated sensor. Every inch of space has been utilised with a range of open shelving laden with artisan ingredients, deep handcrafted drawers and basket storage, perfect for storing anything from vegetables to fresh bread.
Beautiful bespoke bar unit
Innovative pocket doors fold elegantly away to reveal a stunning well-equipped bar with a vibrant pink glass back panel and painted interior. This bright pink is a signature colour from the 1970s - Leather by Little Greene. The colour is a strategic choice by our clients to create a statement and infuse their home with an uplifting, spirited atmosphere. Undershelf lighting and a spotlight are activated as soon as the doors are opened enhancing the wow factor.
Bespoke freestanding island featuring upcycled wood
A focal point of the room, the kitchen island provides extra storage and worktop space. We handcrafted the island in solid hardwood with the top was once our clients’ old French dining table which we repurposed. Reusing old wood creates beautiful and unique pieces of furniture and has significant environmental benefits too. The mantle above the range cooker is salvaged timber too, made from an old oak beam.

A Guest Bathroom benefited from the unique Schluter installation in the shower tile meant to evoke "rain". (A master tile professional is needed :)), and custom cabinetry by Grabill.

In the world of property management, fostering positive relationships with tenants, prospects, and landlords is key to ensuring a thriving rental community. One of the most fundamental aspects of tenant satisfaction is ensuring that their living spaces are equipped with functional appliances. Imagine the frustration of a tenant with a malfunctioning refrigerator or a broken washing machine. It's in such moments that the role of property managers becomes crucial. By offering fast and timely appliance repair and maintenance services, property managers can not only address the immediate needs of their tenants but also build lasting trust and loyalty. In this blog, we will explore the importance of reliable appliance repair services for property managers and how they can strengthen their bonds with tenants, prospects, and landlords.
Understanding the Tenant's Perspective:
For tenants, a well-maintained and fully functional home is not just a luxury but a necessity. Appliances like refrigerators, ovens, washing machines, and HVAC systems are integral to their daily lives. When these appliances break down, it can disrupt their routine and cause significant inconvenience. Tenants appreciate property managers who promptly address these issues, demonstrating a commitment to their comfort and well-being.
Meeting Prospective Tenants' Expectations:
When prospects are searching for a new rental property, they evaluate not only the space and location but also the level of service provided. A property managed by professionals who offer reliable appliance repair services stands out in the competitive rental market. Prospective tenants are more likely to choose a property where their potential issues, including appliance repairs, will be promptly resolved.
Earning the Trust of Landlords:
Landlords entrust property managers with their investments, expecting them to maintain the property and keep the tenants satisfied. Providing efficient appliance repair services not only ensures tenant retention but also earns the trust of landlords. A property manager who can handle repairs swiftly and cost-effectively protects the landlord's investment, leading to a positive and enduring partnership.
Benefits of Reliable Appliance Repair Services:
⦁ Tenant Satisfaction: Fast and reliable appliance repairs lead to satisfied tenants, enhancing their overall living experience.
⦁ Reduced Vacancy Rates: Properties with a reputation for excellent maintenance and quick issue resolution attract and retain tenants, minimizing vacancy periods.
⦁ Positive Word-of-Mouth: Happy tenants are more likely to recommend the property to others, increasing the likelihood of attracting new tenants through referrals.
⦁ Enhanced Property Value: Well-maintained properties retain their value and appeal, ensuring a steady stream of income for landlords.
⦁ Improved Tenant-Landlord Relations: Proactive property managers who promptly address repair issues strengthen their relationships with both tenants and landlords, creating a harmonious living environment.
In the competitive world of property management, offering reliable appliance repair services isn't just a service; it's a testament to a property manager's commitment to their tenants, prospects, and landlords. By promptly addressing repair needs and ensuring the smooth functioning of appliances, property managers not only resolve immediate problems but also lay the foundation for enduring, trust-based relationships. After all, in the eyes of tenants, prospects, and landlords, a property manager who can keep the appliances running smoothly is a valuable partner worth keeping. Building strong bonds through reliable appliance repair services isn't just a strategy – it's a pathway to long-lasting success and mutual satisfaction in the realm of property management.

Showcasing artistic contrast, bold rectilinear shapes make up the minimalistic design of the Jut Seating Collection. This assortment of chunky, geometric pieces make up the first furniture collection made using rotation-molding that creates straight lines. The ergonomics, functionality and ecology are other key features of the Jut set, which include drainage holes to assure maximum comfort. Clean, sharp lines and angles give this collection a contemporary charm, making dining and relaxing more enjoyable indoors and out.
