Benjamin Benschneider A Seattle family was expecting their third child and hoping to find space for an additional bedroom within their existing one-story home. A small second floor addition was considered but the cost and disruption to the family living space presented serious drawbacks. A new detached garage and DADU (Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit), to be located in the backyard, was proposed to free up the existing basement garage for the new bedroom. The new building is modest and simple, designed with a scale and character to complement the existing house and neighborhood.

A warm and inviting ambience was achieved in this Poipu condo with beautiful, lively color. Tropical floral and island inspired desiged fabrics in papaya, palm green, sunny yellow, and coco brown, plus boldly patterned area rugs, splash the rooms with energy. Rich papaya-orange wall color envelopes the guest room in a soothing sunset glow, while lime green walls enhance fabrics in the loft. Luxurious custom touches such as handpainted furniture, beautifully designed and coordinated bedding, and bathroom accessories insure that this will remain a one of a kind residence, not to be duplicated. With a minor remodel of fresh paint, upgraded light fixtures and carpet, and the addition of a few carefully selected pieces of furniture, this family retreat has become their treasured island haven.

Elaine’s all-white IKEA kitchen is a stunning combination of IKEA RINGHULT cabinetry, IKEA GREVSTA stainless steel cabinetry for the massive kitchen island, along with a variety of high-end appliances. This creates a very minimalist, sleek look throughout the layout. “I chose IKEA cabinets because it appealed to my aesthetics and fit into our busy lifestyle,” she says. “I wanted an all-white kitchen that has a modern clean design but was still family-friendly and easy to maintain.” “I also liked being able to easily replace a shelf or a drawer if I needed to make a change or if there was a minor accident by an overactive child or clumsy adult. I can see that the cabinets are extremely high quality and can withstand a few dings from a busy family,” she adds. This also includes a ton of storage throughout with the IKEA RINGHULT cabinetry featured around the upper perimeter of the kitchen; from around the refrigerator, above the countertops and Bosch induction cooktop and around the Whirlpool microwave/oven wall combo. More storage is found with the IKEA GREVSTA stainless steel cabinetry in the kitchen island. Not only is this a perfect choice as it reduces fingerprints and smudges (from active young children) but also provides an ideal spot for pots, pans or other serving dishes located conveniently near the Fisher Paykel two-drawer dishwasher. In fact, all the cabinetry drawers used not only serve a functional role for storage but also enhance the modern kitchen design as well –especially with the minimalist theme. To that end, she adds that her favorite part of her IKEA kitchen is the cooking area. “I like how the new cooktop fits seamlessly into the space, and the XO range hood is hidden inside the upper wall cabinet,” she concludes.
