THE SETUP The original L-shaped guest bathroom, primarily utilized by the client’s young nephews, presented several design challenges.

This outdoor media room and kitchen had to meet the needs of a Houston family needing kid space and adult space. The kids wanted an outdoor audio visual area watch TV and movies. The grownups wanted an outdoor kitchen, bar and grilling area where they could enjoy themselves while watching the kids. And they all wanted a covered patio with places to sit between dips in the pool. However, the family had very limited space between the back of their house and their pool, and no room for anything in either of the side yards: Stringent homeowner association rules also required that any home modifications match the existing home's architecture, color and finishing materials. The pitch of the roof also had to be such that it didn't overlap the bottom of the second-story windows above. So here's what we came up with: A 40-foot-long by 11-foot- deep roof extension off the back of the house (longer than most, but with good engineering specs and design work, we were able to preserve the structural integrity): At one end of the covered patio below is a 12-foot by 8-foot outdoor living room with a custom audio-visual cabinet. At the other is an L-shaped, 8-foot-square outdoor kitchen island with a built-in commercial-grade RCS grill, a 4-by-8-foot outdoor refrigerator and a outdoor icemaker. Keeping in line with the existing home's beige siding, white trim and brown accent façade, we helped the homeowner choose appropriate finishing materials: Austin Western limestone (mostly white with beige accents) for the TV cabinet, kitchen island and column supports; Old English travertine (beige) for the countertops) and white, fluted columns. The Old English travertine countertop has a raised back for a bar with counter seating. The diamond-pattern tile backsplash also features inset fleur de lis accents. The family is more than pleased with the results - two outdoor rooms with two different functions - all within the same covered outdoor living space!

Designing a home that truly embodies indoor-outdoor living requires a thoughtful approach, and this project was no exception. From the start, the focus was on flow—how each space functioned individually and as part of the greater whole. The heart of the home, the kitchen and living area, was designed to maximize natural light and openness, creating a welcoming space for both daily life and entertaining. A soothing palette of warm neutrals, layered textures, and deep blue accents brought a refined yet relaxed feel, striking the perfect balance between sophistication and comfort. The seamless transition to the outdoor living areas was key, with an expansive patio, various seating areas, and a covered space for year-round enjoyment. Every detail, from tile selections to lighting, was carefully curated to reflect a timeless coastal aesthetic. The result? A home that feels as good as it looks—warm, inviting, and perfectly in sync with the way our clients live.
