The clients for this project saw potential to reinvent a small, one-story, 1940’s El Cerrito Bungalow, to support their unique and balanced, work-from-home lifestyle. They craved a modern, fresh approach to their day-to-day life with side-by-side, private work spaces, with the ability to open or close the connection between the two large offices. The home renovation and addition accommodates their spiritual interests as well with a room solely dedicated to meditation, yoga and tai chi. The creation of a small library near the entrance of the home provides a warm environment for research and leisure reading for this dynamic and creative couple. In order to achieve all of their requests, we kept portions of two sides of the original house and wedged a new, modern, 2-story addition in the middle while also extending the home to the rear. This allowed for a spacious master bedroom suite on the first floor complete with a wet room and Japanese soaking tub. Integral color cement plaster, natural wood and clear anodized aluminum create an authentic, rich, textural experience. The home offers lots of natural light, high wood ceilings, and a fun indoor/outdoor living experience that maximizes the use of the existing yard. The clients love their new home and hope that the design will raise the aesthetic bar for the neighborhood.

The epitome of luxury living - an exquisite apartment that exudes unparalleled elegance and sophistication. This stunning residence showcases the masterful work of a visionary designer, Tamar Rand, where every element has been meticulously crafted to create an upscale haven unlike any other. Upon stepping into this grand abode, you are immediately greeted by a traditional ambiance with a modern twist. Tamar Rand has ingeniously utilized every inch of space, transforming it into a seamless blend of modern traditionalism. The entrance floor boasts a charming foyer and hallway that beckon you into the heart of the home. The kitchen, living room, and dining room converge into an open space, exuding a sense of freedom and fluidity. The dining table, an exquisite masterpiece, was born from the collaboration between a skilled carpenter and a visionary glass artist. This unique piece features a delicate balance of glass and intricate woodwork, marrying openness with the essence of traditional style. Among the living quarters are two inviting bedrooms, each meticulously designed to offer comfort and luxury. The master bedroom is accompanied by a lavish bathroom that complements the overall opulence of the apartment. The main bathroom, shared by all, showcases Tamar’s attention to detail in every aspect of the home. One of the most captivating features of this apartment lies below, in the basement, which has been transformed into a magical space. Descending the majestic staircase into the basement, you are greeted by a glamorous light fixture that dazzles like precious jewels, adding an extra touch of luxury to the space. This basement feels nothing like a typical underground area; it is a realm of wonder and imagination brought to life. By utilizing the basement's potential, Tamar has created two expansive play areas, ensuring that fun and excitement abound in every corner. A cleverly installed artificial skylight, adorned with a breathtaking Barrisol stretched ceiling, mimics the vast expanse of the sky, granting an airy and open atmosphere to this lower level. In addition to the play areas, the basement also houses a study and two additional bedrooms, each providing the utmost comfort and privacy. Tamar’s ingenuity has transformed this space into a flourishing hub of leisure and creativity. The apartment's allure lies not only in its sumptuous aesthetics but also in the thoughtfulness that went into optimizing every aspect of its design. A hidden laundry closet in the hallway perfectly exemplifies this philosophy, combining functionality and aesthetics to create an unobtrusive yet efficient space for laundry needs. This apartment is a true testament to the prowess of Tamar, whose custom furniture and meticulous eye for detail have transformed a mere shell into a work of art. This home stands as a true masterpiece, celebrating the beauty of tradition while embracing the comforts of modernity.
