I call this project a "terror" b/c a simple job of installing backsplash tiles was a nauseating rollercoaster ride - even our previous job of a whole house renovation was a prettier ride than this simple 3 day job that turned into a 2 week job!
Lessons learned:
1. Always check the tile's quality by:
Even if it's branded with a big-name brand, make sure you check the country in which it is created.
2. Always anticipate wait-time for "special order" tiles.
3. Always anticipate wait-time for last-minute delivery hiccups by the manufacturer/retail store.
4. Make sure a skilled tile installer install your tiles (communicate that with your prime contractor).

This bright and inviting home office remodel is a lesson in how to blend functionality with comfort. French doors create an elegant entrance while allowing natural light to flow through the space. A soft gray wall color paired with crisp white trim provides a calm backdrop for productivity, while rich hardwood floors and a woven area rug add warmth and texture. The leather armchair and industrial-style bookcase bring a masculine yet approachable vibe, perfect for reading, brainstorming, or unwinding between Zoom calls. Built with intention, this space effortlessly balances work and relaxation.

Inspiration for a large traditional full sun and drought-tolerant backyard stone vegetable garden landscape in Los Angeles for summer.

Exploring passive solar design and thermal temperature control, a small shack was built using wood pallets and
re-purposed materials obtained for free. The goal was to create a prototype to see what works and what doesn't, firsthand. The journey was rough and many valuable lessons were learned.

The primary bathroom is a lesson in warmth and simplicity: a custom white oak floating vanity with open shelf below, a full-length leaning mirror in a warm metal frame, and polished chrome hardware that catches the bright New England light pouring in through two windows. Dried pampas grass adds a natural, unhurried softness to the room.

Most memorable moment was when owner called me and said he was discussing over lunch with a friend the amazing new Sport Court addition we put in his home. It looks that the discussion led to a challenge and owner who was close by our showroom asked if he could use our Design Center Court to teach his friend a lesson! Of course I agreed! Good times.

Rift-sawn white oak cabinetry was carried all the way to the 10-foot ceilings, maximizing storage while adding natural texture. A large island anchors the kitchen, while small appliances are tucked neatly behind pocket doors in a concealed appliance garage. Paneled refrigeration and dishwashing units maintain an uninterrupted flow of material, making the space appear larger, and Taj Mahal quartzite countertops extend seamlessly up the wall as a backsplash. A subtle shadow line detail on the island countertop adds modern refinement.

A St. Charles couple who were looking to stay in their current home for the long haul needed to do some updating to their master and hall bathroom. Right Bath was able to help them modernize these 1980’s spaces. The hall bathroom provides a good lesson in contrasting colors. The dark sienna maple cabinet’s pop next to the light natural stone tile and Winter Onyx shower surround and vanity top. The master bathroom sticks with the more traditional beiges bringing a perfect harmony of design to these rooms.
