Dining room - contemporary dining room idea in San Francisco

The homeowners were ready to renovate this basement to add more living space for the entire family. Before, the basement was used as a playroom, guest room and dark laundry room! In order to give the illusion of higher ceilings, the acoustical ceiling tiles were removed and everything was painted white. The renovated space is now used not only as extra living space, but also a room to entertain in. Photo Credit: Natan Shar of BHAMTOURS

Tub/shower combo - mid-sized transitional master beige tile linoleum floor tub/shower combo idea in Vancouver with an undermount sink, recessed-panel cabinets, white cabinets, marble countertops and white walls

This master bathroom getaway in Corona del Mar was remodeled with design and space in mind. The pony wall made of porcelain allows for the illusion of a much bigger open space, separating the toilet area and the shower area. The three accent walls also give this bathroom design a unique aesthetic.

This custom master bathroom vanity was built to create a calm, elegant space while maximizing everyday functionality. Designed with function and detail in mind by @michaelashomes Featuring double sinks, a seamless quartz countertop and backsplash, and custom painted cabinetry in Sherwin‑Williams Illusion, the design blends soft colour with warm metallic accents for a refined, modern look. Wall-mounted faucets keep the countertop uncluttered while highlighting the beautiful stone surface, and the custom cabinetry provides generous storage with a clean, tailored profile. A perfect balance of style and practicality for a master ensuite.

With sweeping views of the Willamette river and Mt. Hood, this Atwater Place condo was designed with a balance of minimalism and livability in mind. A complete kitchen remodel brought a dark interior kitchen to the light and a full furnishings package welcomed Los Angeles transplants home to their new modern and bright residence. Our clients, a retired camera operator for both feature films and television and a producer/production manager on numerous television series including Weeds and The Middle, relocated from their traditionally-styled LA bungalow to Portland in the Summer of 2014. The couple sought a design departure from their long-term California residence and a fresh start for their new life in the South Waterfront. With only two pieces of sentimental furniture and a handful of artwork included in the plan, we set out to create a comfortable and clean-lined furnishings package complimenting the broad southeast views. Organically shaped upholstery pieces juxtaposed with angular steel and wood tables create a soft balance in the open floor plan. Several custom pieces, including a dining table designed by our studio and a custom hand-blown glass chandelier crafted by Scott Schiesel with Lightlite compliment timeless pieces from Knoll, Herman Miller, and B&B Italia. The kitchen is designed to reflect light and create brilliance in a space that is otherwise naturally dark. A material balance of stainless steel, back painted glass, quartz composite, lacquer, and mirror all play their part in creating a vibrant cooking environment. We collectively decided to forgo the traditional island pendant for a linear commercial fixture that provides tremendous light to the prep surface and creates an unexpected architectural element. The mirrored prep island creates the illusion of open space while concealing casework and wine storage on the working side of the kitchen. It is worth noting that this project was designed and installed almost entirely while our clients were still living in LA and wrapping up professional obligations and selling their home. This afforded us the tremendous opportunity to send our clients to showrooms not available in Portland to view key pieces before final specification. Textiles and finish samples were approved via mail and communication took place over e-mail, telephone, and an occasional office visit. This unique process lead to a successful result and a beautifully balanced living environment. Josh Partee Photography

Inspiration for a cottage bedroom remodel in Sacramento

This primary bedroom was designed with the windows in mind; meeting at the corner, the windows create the illusion of being outdoors. It's one aspect of the midcentury modern style our designer was able to incorporate in the remodel.

Entry Hall & Stair At night the full affect of the coffered stair ceiling can be appreciated. The ceiling is painted with a faux night sky paint. A pre-manufactured kit was used for the ceiling lights. They are made from varying diameter fiber optic lights, positioned with a template for proper star positions. The layout and star size depict a portion of a real solar system. The dark sky and stars seen through the stair wall windows are real! Visually, they help to fool the mind's eye and create the very real illusion of a stair open to a night sky.
