McCabe By Design LLCOur client purchased what had been a custom home built in 1973 on a high bank waterfront lot. They did their due diligence with respect to the septic system, well and the existing underground fuel tank but little did they know, they had purchased a house that would fit into the Three Little Pigs Story book.
The original idea was to do a thorough cosmetic remodel to bring the home up to date using all high durability/low maintenance materials and provide the homeowners with a flexible floor plan that would allow them to live in the home for as long as they chose to, not how long the home would allow them to stay safely. However, there was one structure element that had to change, the staircase.
The staircase blocked the beautiful water/mountain few from the kitchen and part of the dining room. It also bisected the second-floor master suite creating a maze of small dysfunctional rooms with a very narrow (and unsafe) top stair landing. In the process of redesigning the stairs and reviewing replacement options for the 1972 custom milled one inch thick cupped and cracked cedar siding, it was discovered that the house had no seismic support and that the dining/family room/hot tub room and been a poorly constructed addition and required significant structural reinforcement. It should be noted that it is not uncommon for this home to be subjected to 60-100 mile an hour winds and that the geographic area is in a known earthquake zone.
Once the structural engineering was complete, the redesign of the home became an open pallet. The homeowners top requests included: no additional square footage, accessibility, high durability/low maintenance materials, high performance mechanicals and appliances, water and energy efficient fixtures and equipment and improved lighting incorporated into: two master suites (one upstairs and one downstairs), a healthy kitchen (appliances that preserve fresh food nutrients and materials that minimize bacterial growth), accessible bathing and toileting, functionally designed closets and storage, a multi-purpose laundry room, an exercise room, a functionally designed home office, a catio (second floor balcony on the front of the home), with an exterior that was not just code compliant but beautiful and easy to maintain.
All of this was achieved and more. The finished project speaks for itself.
Corinthian Fine HomesThis delightful couple purchased this home with renovation in mind. It was situated in an ideal location, but required a serious update bringing modernization while keeping it’s 1940’s period charm. They asked us to design an elegant Master Suite, complete with a bedroom, master closet and elegant bathroom. While we make every attempt to maintain original walls and floors, this renovation required complete gutting of two bedrooms and closets to open the space and allow for all they wanted. In this process we were able to bring uneven floors and walls into level allowing for great end results. The finishing touches on this bathroom included custom white painted vanity and make-up table with White Carrara Marble countertops and a custom tile floor design using Carrara Marble tile. A free-standing tub and bridge faucets/ tub spout upped the game on a modern take on an old-world plumbing fixture. The glass shower completes this sophisticated space, which gives this master bath a modern twist on traditional.

Kimberlee Marie InteriorsThis bathroom is what dreams are made of – astonishing views, marble floors, and a floor plan big enough to do cartwheels in (which I would totally do if this were my bathroom). Built in 1942 on the top of View Ridge, our client purchased this home in 2012 and decided to remodel it in 2017. We gave this beautiful home a well-deserved "facelift," if you will, and designed a second story consisting of a primary suite and rooftop deck, a walk-in closet, ensuite laundry, 180-degree views, and french doors opening up to the deck. But the real show stopper is the luxurious primary bathroom! Quartz counter tops, custom cabinets, light blue painted walls, a heavenly soaking tub, a large walk-in shower, and a basketweave Carrara marble tile rug make this the master of all bathrooms. We added an upholstered bench and long runner to soften the finishes and create a sophisticated, feminine oasis. Take a look below to see for yourself!
Burrow & NestThis main room became the game room, as this home will serve to entertain guests as well as the family. A built in bar in the walkway beyond, it's the perfect place for a pool table, dart board and a large TV. A quad of swivel chairs can focus on conversation, the TV, the fireplace or game watching.
A custom game table was commissioned from re-claimed barnwood, as well as a bar rail for placing drinks on when playing pool.
The dart board was made custom with the family's name, and is enclosed in a handmade cabinet that serves as piece of art.
The sideboard was purchased to hold board games and the coffee table has hidden drawer storage for cards and remotes.
Juno & LilySpaces and moments... This is a little vignette in front of the fireplace in the master bedroom. It is a collection of found, collected, pieces from countries around the world. A perfect example of bringing different cultures and styles together in a way that makes sense.
NOTE: Persian Tribal rug with Asian lacquered chairs (a Restore find). Chairs were reupholstered in leopard print and accentuated with fun, glam-y blush pink throw pillows. A bit of a wink to the fun, sparkly, girly side of my personality!
Also, of note: The his and her alpaca teddy bears. A purchase from one of the artisan markets in Peru.
My foundational philosophy: If you like it... Buy it! You like it for a reason. Your environment and your personal style is expression of you! Make it work!
UserMy client was moving into a new beautiful home but knew the basic closet option the builder provided was not going to meet their needs. Budget was a big concern, as it often is when purchasing a new home. These closets met all of their storage needs and didn't break the bank. We kept the design fairly simple but layered in just a few special accessory storage options for them.
You can't go wrong with a classic white closet!
Kaplan Architects, AIAOur client purchased an apartment on the top floor of an old 1930’s building with expansive views of the San Francisco Bay from the palace of Fine Arts, Golden Gate Bridge, to Alcatraz Island. The existing apartment retained some of the original detailing and the owner wished to enhance and build on the existing traditional themes that existed there. We reconfigured the apartment to add another bedroom, relocated the kitchen, and remodeled the remaining spaces.
The design included moving the kitchen to free up space to add an additional bedroom. We also did the interior design and detailing for the two existing bathrooms. The master bath was reconfigured entirely.
We detailed and guided the selection of all of the fixtures, finishes and lighting design for a complete and integrated interior design of all of the spaces.

m studio interior designWhen all but the master suite was redesigned in a newly-purchased home, an opportunity arose for transformation.
Lack of storage, low-height counters and an unnecessary closet space were all undesirable.
Closing off the adjacent closet allowed for wider and taller vanities and a make-up station in the bathroom. Eliminating the tub, a shower sizable to wash large dogs is nestled by the windows offering ample light. The water-closet sits where the previous shower was, paired with French doors creating an airy feel while maintaining privacy.
In the old closet, the previous opening to the master bath is closed off with new access from the hallway allowing for a new laundry space. The cabinetry layout ensures maximum storage. Utilizing the longest wall for equipment offered full surface space with short hanging above and a tower functions as designated tall hanging with the dog’s water bowl built-in below.
A palette of warm silvers and blues compliment the bold patterns found in each of the spaces.
Architecture OfficeOur client purchased a disused lakefront residential plot on the border between Euclid and Willowick, Ohio. They asked Architecture Office to design a weekend retreat for them that emphasizes its striking view of Lake Erie.
This two-story vacation home opens to a breezeway that provides cross-ventilation and airflow to the second floor’s kitchen and living area. On the ground floor, the master bedroom features an en suite bathroom and walk-in closet. A storage space that is accessible from the house’s exterior sits behind this closet. A second bedroom—intended for Airbnb guests—features an en suite bathroom, closet and separate entrance. A staircase ascends from the breezeway to a combined living area and kitchen. This open space is anchored by a twelve foot window that faces Lake Erie.
The house is oriented perpendicular to Lake Erie to optimize views of the lake from the master and second bedrooms. We refurbished a previously existing deck on the property to incorporate it into the site. A gravel driveway leads to a space cleared to accommodate a garage at a future date. The house is clad in horizontal corrugated aluminum siding to provide a minimalist aesthetic. The cladding and a standing seam metal roof protects the house from frequent storms and high winds off the lake.

Jami AbbadessaThis family needed help decorating their large new home in Chino. They moved in and didn’t know where to start. We decided to start with the master bedroom. They were sleeping on a mattress on the floor with paper blinds on the windows – totally unacceptable! They had already painted and the flooring was new, so we worked with the existing color scheme, which was great, because they selected a sophisticated neutral color scheme that gave us a perfect base. The room was completely empty, so to get the ball rolling, we started by sourcing and purchasing the larger furniture items first and basing the remainder of the decor around those pieces. I really enjoy finding a good deal and gathering unique accents from multiple sources, rather than having a room decorated all from one store. I never want a client’s home to look like it came straight from a catalog page…where’s the fun in that? Luckily this client felt the same way and they were totally on board with finding special pieces from stores like: Wayfair, Home Goods and Pier 1.
