This 4,000-square foot home is located in the Silverstrand section of Hermosa Beach, known for its fabulous restaurants, walkability and beach access. Stylistically, it’s coastal-meets-traditional, complete with 4 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, a 3-stop elevator and a roof deck with amazing ocean views. The client, an art collector, wanted bold color and unique aesthetic choices. In the living room, the built-in shelving is lined in luminescent mother of pearl. The dining area’s custom hand-blown chandelier was made locally and perfectly diffuses light. The client’s former granite-topped dining table didn’t fit the size and shape of the space, so we cut the granite and built a new base and frame around it. The bedrooms are full of organic materials and personal touches, such as the light raffia wall-covering in the master bedroom and the fish-painted end table in a college-aged son’s room—a nod to his love of surfing. Detail is always important, but especially to this client, so we searched for the perfect artisans to create one-of-a kind pieces. Several light fixtures were commissioned by an International glass artist. These include the white, layered glass pendants above the kitchen island, and the stained glass piece in the hallway, which glistens blues and greens through the window overlooking the front entrance of the home. The overall feel of the house is peaceful but not complacent, full of tiny surprises and energizing pops of color.

Thank you to our local clients, the Dorfman's for working with us to build your custom kitchen hood! A Custom Stainless Steel & High Polished Stainless Steel Range Hood to accompany their remodeled home.

Inspiration for a tropical dining room remodel in Los Angeles

Newly constructed home located in the Zilker neighborhood of Austin. The existing bungalow on the property was deconstructed, with materials set aside for re-use in the new home. Goal of the project was to source exclusively from these existing materials, as well as materials salvaged from the homeowners' family ranch in West Texas. The remaining products and materials were sourced locally and made in the USA whenever possible, to lower the carbon footprint and support local manufacturers and artisans.

This tiny home is located on a treelined street in the Kitsilano neighborhood of Vancouver. We helped our client create a living and dining space with a beach vibe in this small front room that comfortably accommodates their growing family of four. The starting point for the decor was the client's treasured antique chaise (positioned under the large window) and the scheme grew from there. We employed a few important space saving techniques in this room... One is building seating into a corner that doubles as storage, the other is tucking a footstool, which can double as an extra seat, under the custom wood coffee table. The TV is carefully concealed in the custom millwork above the fireplace. Finally, we personalized this space by designing a family gallery wall that combines family photos and shadow boxes of treasured keepsakes.

The client wanted a toe kick with a furniture look. So by having an applied toe kick to the bottom it makes cleaning easier and looks good. All the cup pulls and handles are locally sourced from upstate NY.

Our clients had a couple young kids and wanted to renovate their house. We used timber framing to extend and add-on to the existing home and significantly increase the square footage of the house. This provided both structural and aesthetic benefits for the project. The kitchen has numerous local and handmade features, including a soapstone countertop and built-in sink.

Nestled in the client’s permaculture garden (that often supplies local restaurants with fresh produce), the ADU is thoughtfully positioned in the client’s backyard to preserve the existing redwood trees and privacy for the neighbors

This is custom reception desk I built for a client in Ft. Mac Murray. It was made out of solid mahogany and weighed a little over a 1000lbs when I was done. It included a custom insert on the front of the desk that sandwiched opaque lexan then local will branches and clear lexan and switchable LED lighting to backlight the willow branches.

We maximized sleeping accommodations in the bunk room with two sets of custom twin over full bunk beds fabricated locally from FSC certified wood. Playful geometric wallpaper on the ceiling adds an unexpected twist.

These rustic, tooled-edge concrete countertops, island top and backsplashes were made locally in our shop and then shipped to this beautiful new home in Montana. Nothing is out of the realm of possibilities for our clients!

The client already had a breakfast nook but wanted built in seating. I like the craftsman style and suggested Quarter Sawn White Oak for the benches. I designed a support for the table top in steel and had it fabricated locally. Great clients, great project!

The client's purchased this home with a gorgeous lot but needing a total gut renovation and addition. We brought the mechanicals, insulation, and electrical up-to-speed along with renovating the interior and exterior of the home. A few of the interesting features seen here are a reclaimed wood island-top from a local train station, the cabinets custom-made with a local cabinet maker, a copper ceiling above the island in the kitchen, a large farmhouse sink in the kitchen, and a table from reclaimed wood. We also installed custom built-ins and window seats for the children's rooms. All of this was built for the client on-site.
