Inspiration for a timeless dark wood floor kitchen/dining room combo remodel in Los Angeles with white walls

The portion of the front yard outside the fence and abutting the sidewalk features a natural-scape reminiscent of a public park: areas of pea gravel denoted with larger river rocks and boulders, and areas mulched with decomposed granite. A large natural stone bench invites sitting, while grasses, salvia and water wise meadow plants create the feel of the Southern California wilderness. Custom fence divides this public space from the private residence inside.

Family room - contemporary open concept light wood floor family room idea in Seattle with white walls

Long time clients who are "empty nesters" downsized from a larger house to this new condominium, designed to showcase their small yet impressive collection of modern art. The space plan, high ceilings, and careful consideration of materials lends their residence an quiet air of sophistication without pretension. Existing furnishings nearly 30 years old were slightly modified and reupholstered to work in the new residence, which proved both economical and comforting.

This five acre site is part of a larger equestrian community development. The clients wanted a living unit above a five stall barn which they would use as a guest house once their home was constructed. Equine Facility Design sited the barn/guest house, a large shop/storage building, and the residence and designed the layout of the driveway, parking areas, landscaping, paddocks, and pastures.

Set in a downtown Kirkland neighborhood, the 1st Street project captures the best of suburban living. The open floor plan brings kitchen, dining, and living space within reach, and rich wood beams, shiplap, and stone accents add timeless texture with a modern twist. Four bedrooms and a sprawling daylight basement create distinct spaces for family life, and the finished covered patio invites residents to breathe in the best of Pacific Northwest summers.

This powder room renovation was part of a larger, extensive interior renovation for an existing penthouse condominium residence, located in Clayton, Missouri. The primary concept for the overall renovation was to bring architectural continuity throughout the entire residence with an edited materials palette that serves as a neutral backdrop for the owners’ extensive art collection. For the powder room specifically, the existing dark, herringbone wood floor is complimented with a floor to ceiling vertical slab of edge-lit leathered black granite. The textural stone is contrasted with a white wall-mounted vessel sink and white stone faucet trim. A custom ledge for the mirror and a soap and towel holder are seamlessly integrated in the black granite. Finally, a sculptural Tom Dixon “Melt” pendant light fixture adds an appropriate amount of drama to the small powder room. ©Alise O'Brien Photography

This West Village is the combination of 2 apartments into a larger one, which takes advantage of the stunning double height spaces, extremely unusual in NYC. While keeping the pre-war flair the residence maintains a minimal and contemporary design.

See "Cottage Kitchen in Elburn" for the kitchen featured in this description Located on a partially wooded lot in Elburn, Illinois, this home needed an eye-catching interior redo to match the unique period exterior. The residence was originally designed by Bow House, a company that reproduces the look of 300-year old bow roof Cape-Cod style homes. Since typical kitchens in old Cape Cod-style homes tend to run a bit small- or as some would like to say, cozy – this kitchen was in need of plenty of efficient storage to house a modern day family of three. Advance Design Studio, Ltd. was able to evaluate the kitchen’s adjacent spaces and determine that there were several walls that could be relocated to allow for more usable space in the kitchen. The refrigerator was moved to the newly excavated space and incorporated into a handsome dinette, an intimate banquette, and a new coffee bar area. This allowed for more countertop and prep space in the primary area of the kitchen. It now became possible to incorporate a ball and claw foot tub and a larger vanity in the elegant new full bath that was once just an adjacent guest powder room. Reclaimed vintage Chicago brick paver flooring was carefully installed in a herringbone pattern to give the space a truly unique touch and feel. And to top off this revamped redo, a handsome custom green-toned island with a distressed black walnut counter top graces the center of the room, the perfect final touch in this charming little kitchen.
