These were some poppies we spied at the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens. This landscaping provided some of our inspiration. For our client, we took their small, dismal garden, and Feng Shui'ed and completely redesigned it. The theme was a xeriscape - with drought tolerant, native species to California. Jennifer designed the Feng Shui aspects of the garden, and Briana Lyon provided the horticultural knowledge. We also designed their atrium to be an indoor/outdoor space with plants, and seating areas. Our clients (and their dog) love the finished product. Now they have strawberries, and artichokes coming straight from the garden. They also get a fair amount of hummingbirds visiting their fountain. This is an eclectic space, which colorfully pumps up the Feng Shui of the homeowners, while giving them a zen place to relax.

The design brief from this homeowner was to replace their old concrete patio with a beautiful hardwood deck. Unsure of how big to have the deck, the Contractor provided 3D designs of the space (incorporating future landscaping ideas for the garden) and researching the ideal deck size for the type of entertaining we do. Inside Out Design & Build specialize in Hardwood Decking and are very knowledgeable about the various hardwoods available and the best fit for a clients needs and budget. The outcome? First class workmanship - an absolutely gorgeous looking 1x6 Batu Hardwood Deck...and one very happy customer. Concept, Design and Install by Inside Out Design & Build. Material supplied by POCO Building Supplies. Contact sales@pocobuildingsupplies.com

Living room - transitional living room idea in Burlington

This 1901 Victorian was a long awaited dream home. The owners wanted a house that was comfortable, yet retained an historic feel. From a complete kitchen remodel to the new master suite, every aspect of this 3,300 SF house now confirms its Victorian roots. "The result", stares owner Willie Simmons, "is a true melding of what I wanted and her (Heather's) absolute incredible design knowledge."

Luxury and beauty formed by pure crystal with 24% lead content; Luxor is blown by mouth and beveled in by our master artists into the shape of a circular or oval bowl. No machine or modern technology has been used in the creation of this exquisite wash basin. Luxor is the product of the collective knowledge of crystal making acquired through years of ancient and noble glass arts. The cut glass creates a rectangular grid pattern on the outside and it is polished by hand on the inside for a smooth and hygienic surface.

Beach style home design photo in Orange County

We like this design because it is updating a traditional home into more of a "contemporary" look. There's a fine line when trying to accomplish this. You want the updated look to not compete with the traditional architecture of the home. For example the wood molding, chair rail and curvature of the window. This space works with the updated design by painting the walls a solid, modern color of deep plum. You want to paint the wood detail of the chair rail and molding the same color of the wall so it's not too busy and just adds that visual interest in the background. Second, using a fabric pattern that is modern paired with the clean lines of the sofa, rod and lamp shade makes this space the ultimate updated look. **UPDATE** We also work with clients all over the country! Our virtual designers have experience as local and long distance design consultants. Our designers offer professional fabric and design recommendations, free estimates and have a great ability to communicate via email or phone to help conceptualize the project and see it through to the final stages.
