Our customer had a major water leak issue that turned into an insurance claim. We were called out to repair the basement by repairing damaged walls, install a new kitchen, repair the bathroom, completely replace the stairs for the customer and install all new tile floors throughout.

Above and Beyond is the third residence in a four-home collection in Paradise Valley, Arizona. Originally the site of the abandoned Kachina Elementary School, the infill community, appropriately named Kachina Estates, embraces the remarkable views of Camelback Mountain. Nestled into an acre sized pie shaped cul-de-sac lot, the lot geometry and front facing view orientation created a remarkable privacy challenge and influenced the forward facing facade and massing. An iconic, stone-clad massing wall element rests within an oversized south-facing fenestration, creating separation and privacy while affording views “above and beyond.” Above and Beyond has Mid-Century DNA married with a larger sense of mass and scale. The pool pavilion bridges from the main residence to a guest casita which visually completes the need for protection and privacy from street and solar exposure. The pie-shaped lot which tapered to the south created a challenge to harvest south light. This was one of the largest spatial organization influencers for the design. The design undulates to embrace south sun and organically creates remarkable outdoor living spaces. This modernist home has a palate of granite and limestone wall cladding, plaster, and a painted metal fascia. The wall cladding seamlessly enters and exits the architecture affording interior and exterior continuity. Kachina Estates was named an Award of Merit winner at the 2019 Gold Nugget Awards in the category of Best Residential Detached Collection of the Year. The annual awards ceremony was held at the Pacific Coast Builders Conference in San Francisco, CA in May 2019.

This backyard began with no aesthetic appeal, and also came with drainage issues. Their son has a passion for golf, so they wanted to incorporate that into their newly landscaped yard. Our team worked on the re-level of the yard to resolve the issue with flooding during major rains, and are continually working on updating overall drainage systems, through interlocked natural stones and underground drainage gutters and piping. Our next step will involve updating the natural grass in the back portion of the yard.

Very large refrigerator with French doors really makes this kitchen pop. Stainless steel always compliments any paint you choose. But white definitely gives it that modern fresh look!
