Inspiration for a transitional home office remodel in Philadelphia

The main design goal for Akuma’s new office is to build a new style of modern office space that is open, cozy and relaxing without sacrificing work efficiency. The interior looked more like a coffee shop rather than a traditional office. We believed that such a design style will not only generate a lot of interest among guests but also beneficial to our work efficiency since the open cozy environment provides such a comfortable atmosphere that it should naturally stir-up our imagination and creativity. The highlight of the project is the logo at the front entrance. Upon first impression, most would refer it as just a row of twisted metal hanging from the ceiling. However, it is meant to be a piece of artistic installation that serves as the main logo as well. What really forms the logo is actually the projected shadow image from that row of twisted aluminum metal strips hanging from the ceiling. A spotlight is set at an exact, pre-determined angle towards the hanging metal strips which produced the result of the logo image on the wall behind. So in reality, the logo only exists when the shadow of the twisted art is projected. As an interior design company, having the nicest and sometimes the coolest looking office interior is the absolute top priority. However, in the path of ultimate fanciness, we still need a decent place to work. The challenge then was how to look stunning but still be an employee friendly work space. With a pivotal design element such as our new front logo, we believe we’ve succeeded in achieving a significant upgrade that’s certainly going to generate quite a splash in our community.

Located in Argyle, Texas, this comprehensive whole-home renovation was conceived by USI Design & Remodeling who reimagined the home's interior architecture, transforming a collection of compartmentalized rooms into a cohesive environment designed for modern living, entertaining, and daily comfort. The project encompassed the kitchen, family room, dining room, lounge, office, primary bathroom, and supporting circulation spaces, creating a unified experience that feels both expansive and intentional. Throughout the home, refined materials, custom millwork, and carefully curated finishes establish a sense of understated luxury while maintaining warmth and livability. At the heart of the renovation is a completely reconfigured kitchen and gathering space designed around functionality, hospitality, and visual connection. Architectural barriers were removed to improve sightlines and circulation, allowing the kitchen, dining, and family spaces to function as a single integrated living environment. A dramatic five-foot workstation sink anchors the kitchen, while custom cabinetry and furniture-inspired details elevate the space beyond conventional residential design. Adjacent to the kitchen, the former pantry, laundry, and service corridor were reimagined as a hybrid scullery and utility suite, creating a highly functional support space that discreetly accommodates food preparation, storage, organization, and household operations without compromising the elegance of the primary living areas. The renovation extends beyond aesthetics to create a home tailored to the family's evolving needs. The primary bathroom was transformed into a spa-inspired retreat, while the lounge, office, and dining spaces were redesigned to support both everyday living and entertaining. Consistent architectural detailing, layered textures, and thoughtful proportions establish continuity throughout the residence, allowing each room to feel connected to the larger design narrative. The result is a sophisticated yet approachable home that balances practical performance with timeless design, delivering a renewed living experience that is both highly functional and distinctly luxurious.

Colors play an important role in stimulating the work environment and Kanika Design used her expertise of colors to help set the tone for this interior office. PC: MJ Cohen Photography

We planned a thoughtful redesign of this beautiful home while retaining many of the existing features. We wanted this house to feel the immediacy of its environment. So we carried the exterior front entry style into the interiors, too, as a way to bring the beautiful outdoors in. In addition, we added patios to all the bedrooms to make them feel much bigger. Luckily for us, our temperate California climate makes it possible for the patios to be used consistently throughout the year. The original kitchen design did not have exposed beams, but we decided to replicate the motif of the 30" living room beams in the kitchen as well, making it one of our favorite details of the house. To make the kitchen more functional, we added a second island allowing us to separate kitchen tasks. The sink island works as a food prep area, and the bar island is for mail, crafts, and quick snacks. We designed the primary bedroom as a relaxation sanctuary – something we highly recommend to all parents. It features some of our favorite things: a cognac leather reading chair next to a fireplace, Scottish plaid fabrics, a vegetable dye rug, art from our favorite cities, and goofy portraits of the kids. --- Project designed by Courtney Thomas Design in La Cañada. Serving Pasadena, Glendale, Monrovia, San Marino, Sierra Madre, South Pasadena, and Altadena.
