An unfortunate water leak forced these homeowners to entertain a remodel of their kitchen. The previous kitchen had dark builder grade cabinets with little function and even less style. After some great exploratory conversations The words "classic, clean and functional" kept coming up. What's more classic then a white kitchen with marble? We didn't want the kitchen to appear sterile so we added dark grey cabinets for contrast and light grey counter tops to soften. Creating a focal point at the beautiful kitchen window and it's view were key. I tiled the whole wall in marble subway tile to really highlight the gorgeous natural stone. I used frosted glass in the cabinets so the light would come through, but the contents were still somewhat hidden. The butlers pantry tile has a geometric pattern for a bit more pop. The upper cabinet's decorative mullions are similar in style to the window cabinets. The homeowners like to cook and entertain so I packed a lot of function into the island. It houses the cook top with downdraft, spice pull out, knife/utensil pullout, and tray dividers. New bar stools and a dining set complete the look

This faux granite natural spring is both a central feature of this garden space as well as an anchoring point for retaining the slope behind it. The silent pump is hidden below the decorative gravel and within the concrete work is a complete rubber liner to prevent any leaks. The soft sound of the moving water attracts birds and people alike.

Will Calhoun - House VI is an intimate residence. I was asked to renovate this home in 1989 after earlier construction techniques had failed to protect the integrity of the curtain wall and roof systems. The renovation was extremely comprehensive will many new structural members, new insulation, roof system, windows + doors, FineStone exterior stucco, skim coat plaster interior, floors, glass insets in the floors, cabinets, tile, etc. etc. For many years the house was worry free. Ultimately, the closely packed horizontal skylights with 'lower than spec' curbs on the roof succumbed to New England winters and pin hole leaks began to appear. That was alleviated in 2010 when many of the skylights were eliminated and a low pitched EPDM roof system was installed. In late winter 2014 the temperature plunged in the house and the low temperature sensor failed to alert anyone until 14 hidden pipe breaks and a great deal of water damage necessitated a new, smaller renovation to penetrate the finishes - both interior and exterior - to mend the pipes and restore the house to it's original aesthetic.

This family's home was 26 years old and the master bathroom was in desperate need of a makeover. A leak in the skylight motivated our client to give us a call to get the ball rolling. In addition to repairing the leak, their goals were to create a large shower stall, add radiant floor heating, improve storage around the his and her vanity, and improve the overall aesthetics of the room.

A hidden passageway lies behind this under stair bookcase. Leading to one of the kids rooms, it completes the hidden passageway labyrinth that connected each kids bedrooms to each other through non-doorway portholes. Not a foot of this house was wasted.
And with the deep green retrofit, the parents didn't have to worry about toxic chemical off-gassing or large utility bills for as long as the live in the home.
Originally built on a 35 degree hillside the deep green retrofit and rebuild because of massive water leaks and mold damage make this one of the greenest homes in California. The home scored 272pts. on the Build it Green Green Point Rated system. and would have placed it at the Platinum level of LEED for Homes, had the homeowners wanted to spend the significant cost to get it LEED rated. With Solar Electric and Solar Thermal and a super insulated shell, the house is close to Net-Zero energy.
