This custom kitchen remodel in Vienna, VA was designed to feel timeless, functional, and welcoming. The homeowners wanted a space that balanced clean lines with natural materials, while improving lighting, workflow, and overall comfort. A key design decision was using Taj Mahal quartzite for both the countertops and the full-height backsplash. Carrying the same stone throughout the kitchen creates a seamless look and allows the soft veining and warm tones of the natural stone to become the focal point of the space. The cabinetry was selected to complement the stone without overpowering it, offering ample storage and a classic profile that will age well over time. Updated lighting, including under-cabinet and recessed ceiling fixtures, enhances both task functionality and ambiance, while behind-the-scenes upgrades to electrical, ventilation, and HVAC ensure the kitchen performs as beautifully as it looks. The result is a refined yet livable kitchen designed for everyday use and long-term enjoyment.

Shaped by the refined architecture of Çeşme, this elegant villa project completes its nature-inspired luxury aesthetic with Serapool’s Antique Beige Series and Antique Beige Infinity Tile. The warm beige tones merge with the natural texture of stone to create a sophisticated ambiance. With a water absorption rate below 0.5%, the tiles ensure long-term durability. They are highly resistant to UV rays, chemicals, and thermal shock, making them ideal for outdoor use. A PTV ≥ 45° slip resistance rating enhances safety on wet surfaces. The specially designed infinity tile offers a seamless visual connection to the landscape, elevating the overall experience. More than a swimming area, this project delivers a flawless combination of aesthetics, safety, and comfort, advancing the vision of luxury living.

This Sammamish, WA project transformed the homeowner’s outdoor living space with the construction of a custom 25' x 20' gable-style patio cover designed to provide year-round protection and comfort. The structure was engineered to complement the home’s existing architecture and finished with durable, low-maintenance materials for long-term performance. Key features included a new composite roof system matched to the existing home, integrated gutters and downspouts for proper drainage, custom-wrapped support posts, and a finished tongue-and-groove-style soffit ceiling that creates a clean, polished appearance. The project also included permit preparation, engineering, and municipal approvals to ensure compliance with local building requirements. The completed patio cover provides a spacious outdoor gathering area that enhances both the functionality and value of the property while delivering protection from the Pacific Northwest weather. The result is a beautiful extension of the home that can be enjoyed throughout the year for entertaining, dining, and relaxation.

This Seward Park residence was reimagined for a retired architect returning to Seattle, blending bold design with practical function. The remodel retained only the original foundation, reinforcing it to support a brand-new second story. Vaulted ceilings and a glass railing system give the home an airy, open feel filled with natural light. Inside, modern upgrades include a chef’s kitchen with a 48” range, built-in refrigerator, and smart storage throughout. Floating vanities make bathrooms easy to maintain, while thoughtful finishes add everyday convenience. Outside, new retaining walls, pervious pavers, and gravel pits provide stormwater management and off-street parking—all while enhancing curb appeal. The result is a modern, stylish home designed for comfortable living and long-term resilience.

This primary bathroom remodel marks the first transformation in a home our clients purchased ten years ago. With plans to renovate every level over time, this space sets the tone for the style and functionality they envision throughout the rest of their home. The original layout included a tub that was never used, so we removed it to better utilize the square footage. By relocating the shower and reworking the overall layout, we created a more open, efficient design tailored to their daily routines. Updated finishes and a refreshed color palette establish a cohesive look that finally feels personal and reflective of their taste. This bathroom renovation is just the beginning, and we are excited to help bring their long term vision to life, one space at a time.

When our long-term clients purchased this home in Sherman Oaks, we helped them turn the backyard into a space they could actually use with a backyard upgrade and pool remodel. We rebuilt the pool and added a custom deck area with built-in bench seating for everyday use and small gatherings. We also designed and installed an outdoor BBQ kitchen with a durable basalt countertop that complements the interior. To break up the space, we added paving, stepping stones, and low-maintenance groundcover planting for texture and easier upkeep. We finished it off with wood elements and neutral tones to bring everything together into a practical and inviting backyard.
