Inspiration for a craftsman home design remodel in San Francisco

Located in the heart of Miami, this project was developed in a narrow lot overlooking the waterway, resulting in a one-story H-shaped layout with four wings that merge into a central gathering area. It is an incredible oasis in which no matter where you are in the house, you are surrounded by beautiful views. Reaching the front door requires navigating floating concrete steps across a built-in pond, past this is the living area where elevated ceilings and clerestory windows were included to enhance the connection with nature. Materials further highlight this relationship, with warm paneling on the ceiling and limestone floors that echo the exterior coral stone walls. All bedrooms face the outdoor scenery and are lined with floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light, as well as the main bathroom and hallways, so strolls across the house have an element of discovery. It has taken a life of its own and that's exactly what we were trying to create, a home where you get to enjoy every single corner of it.

The home’s primary suite was already spacious, however its entry was awkward to navigate. The door opened directly to the bedroom area and required walking through the sitting area to access the ensuite bathroom. The door’s new location opens directly into the bedroom’s sitting area, creating a sense of arrival and a more natural movement throughout the suite with the bed to the left and bathroom to the right.

These homeowners loved to host, but their original layout was completely failing them functionally. Through our guided process, we transformed the space into a transitional masterpiece, layering crisp stacked cabinets with a character-stained oak island and a hidden forest green pantry. We backed the entire build with our Ownership Promise, absorbing the technical and logistical risks so they could navigate the renovation with absolute peace of mind. The outcome is a master-grade entertainment hub that delivers daily inspiration and a profound sense of pride the moment guests walk through the door.

Möbius was designed with intention of breaking away from architectural norms, including repeating right angles, and standard roof designs and connections. Nestled into a serene landscape on the barrier island of Casey Key, the home features protected, navigable waters with a dock on the rear side, and a private beach and Gulf views on the front. Materials like cypress, coquina, and shell tabby are used throughout the home to root the home to its place. This image shows the mater bedroom.

Sometimes the shape and size of a space is great but the details inside seem wrong. That was what my clients thought about their primary bathroom in their newly purchased mountain home. As only the second owners of this large house built in the early 90s, they were eager to be rid of an array of artifacts from that period: a wall of glass bricks at the shower; a huge Jacuzzi tub and deck; and an odd, unnecessary run of shelving about a foot down from the ceiling line. These clients spent many years living on the east coast and brought with them a wonderful classical sense for their interiors—so I created a space that would give them that feeling of Classicism while simultaneously feeling fresh and current. To start we chose a cooler color palette for the entire space. Tiles that look like Statuario marble are set off by a white and blue marble Arabesque mosaic medallion in the center of the room. Once the space-hogging Jacuzzi tub was removed, I was able to fit larger, dueling vanities in a lovely French green (a grey with a slight, cool olive tone). These furniture-style units feature a breakfront sink base flanked by fluted columns topped with rosettes. A sculptural, contemporary tub now sits in the alcove looking out over the lush hillside. The Neo-Classicism of the Georgian aesthetic inspired my choices for light fixtures. The central chandelier and vanity sconces feature glass finials and simplified flourishes. We removed the glass bricks and rebuilt the entire shower to accommodate a linear drain, making it a true zero-clearance shower without a curb. My clients are now able to waltz into the shower without navigating oddly placed walls and an unusually high step into the pan. Even the adjacent make-up vanity got a make-over—and a beverage refrigerator concealed by a panel of the same French green--to blend with the new, lighter style of the space. Finally, I designed custom Roman shades in a stunning embroidered material of cream and aqua to complete the room. The high style of the space references the past while reveling in a current moment of comfort and convenience. Photo: Bernardo Grijalva

This 1992 Tigard home’s primary bathroom remodel was reimagined to support both comfort today and accessibility in the future. The goal was a space that feels open, calming, and easy to navigate, with thoughtful planning for aging in place. Every decision focused on improving flow, function, and long-term usability without sacrificing a clean, updated look.

Replacing the swing door with a sliding door eliminated a clearance conflict between the vanity and the bathtub, making the primary bathroom easier to navigate. Porcelain slab countertops with an integrated backsplash, a double vanity, and large-format wall tile create a clean, contemporary space that balances durability with everyday function.

These bespoke fitted wardrobes were designed with both functionality and style in mind. Inside, they feature a combination of hanging rails, adjustable shelving, and soft-close drawers, all complemented by soft-close concealed hinges for a smooth, seamless feel. Warm LED lighting, activated by sensors, adds a touch of luxury while making the interiors easy to navigate. We used Egger’s ‘Vintage Sante Fe’ for the internal carcasses, shelves, and drawers, carefully grain-matched throughout for a cohesive look. For the exterior and doors, we chose Finsa ‘Hidrofugo’ MRMDF, finished by hand in Farrow and Ball’s elegant ‘Selvedge’—a timeless shade that completes the design with understated sophistication.
