When this non-descript three-story brick row house was purchased by the client, it was stripped completely bare. The owner sought to add additional space, which was achieved by extending the rear of the home by a full 16 feet on the parlor, second and third levels. This not only provided roomier living spaces indoors, it created the opportunity to outfit each reconfigured floor with identical balconies. These outcroppings, finished with matte black railings and full NanaWall folding glass doors, provide the ideal outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining, while creating a harmonious uniformity to the rear façade.

Part of the Modin Vinyl Plank Collection, Available Exclusively From www.Flooret.com $3.49 / sq ft, 22.08 sq ft per box 50% WIDER. 25% LONGER. TWICE AS DURABLE Luxury Vinyl Plank, 5 mm x 9" x 60" (1.0 mm / 40 mil wear-layer) Lifetime Residential Warranty, 20 year Commercial Warranty Refined, layered, dynamic. For spaces in search of identity, or those that don’t need one, Fogwood can be a defining statement. A combination of modern texture and high color variation, this is a floor that creates opportunities with each plank. REDEFINING DURABILITY The most important specification for determining the durability of vinyl flooring is the thickness of the wear-layer. The best wear-layers are made of thick, clear virgin PVC, which covers the paper print-film that gives the floor its unique appearance. Once the wear-layer wears through, the paper is damaged and the floor will need replacement. Most vinyl floors come with a 8-12 mil wear-layer (0.2-3 mm). The top commercial specs in the industry are higher, at 20-22 mil (0.5 mm). A select few manufacturers offer a "super" commercial spec of 28 mil (0.7 mm). For Modin, we decided to set a new standard: 40 mil (1.0 mm) of premium virgin PVC. This allows us to offer an industry-leading 20 year Commercial Warranty (Lifetime Residential), compared to nearly all other commercial vinyl floors' 10 year Commercial Warranty. Beyond our superior wear-layer, we also use a patented click mechanism for superior hold, and a ceramic-bead coating. SIZE MATTERS Wider and longer planks create a sense of space and luxury. Most vinyl floors come in 6" or 7" widths, and 36" or 48" lengths. For Modin, we designed our planks to be 9" wide, and 60" long. This extra large size allows our gorgeous designs to be fully expressed. DETAILS THAT COUNT We made sure to get all the details right. Real texture, to create the feel of wire-brushed wood. Low sheen level, to ensure a natural look that wears well over time. 4-sided bevels, to more accurately emulate the look of real planks. When added together they help create the unique look that is Modin. DESIGNS THAT INSPIRE We spent nearly a year just focusing on our designs, to ensure they provide the right mix of color and depth. Focusing on timeless wire-brush and European Oak styles, as well as more contemporary modern washes, our collection offers truly beautiful design that is both functional and inspiring.

The original treads were overly pitched such that when the stairs iced over, every family member living in the house slipped and fell at least once. Excavation for the new addition gave the Owners an opportunity to re-build the stairs in this interesting serpentine path.

The Designers for Hope Showcase, which was held on May 14-17, 2015, is a fundraising event to help support the program and mission of House of Hope. Local designers were chosen to transform a riverfront home in De Pere, with the help of DeLeers Construction. The home was then opened up to the public for the unique opportunity to view a distinctively new environment.

We have such an amazing opportunity to work with a variety of different customers! For this contractor, they were able to renovate a commercial property for one of their customers, creating a beautiful kitchenette space for employees to utilize. The outcome was truly stunning and modern. This is a great reminder of the potential found in each project!

The clean quartz counter top gives the opportunity to mix things up on the back splash. Here a travertine subway tile is paired with a small mosaic tile with a pencil tile accent.

The kitchen was relocated to what was previously the family room. This shift created an opportunity for a light, bright space that better supports entertaining larger groups and casual meals by the fireplace, all while highlighting original architectural features of the home in a new, fresh way.

Backyard Our team was excited when we received this request because it gave us the opportunity to design a backyard with an outdoor setting area as well. The client wanted their new pool house, and paved space enclosed by garden fencing so they can enjoy spending time outdoors too!

Lighting is an essential for every room in your home. Sometimes built-in lights and ceiling lights are not enough, and you have to add some extra illumination with lamps. These are an excellent opportunity to show off your decorative taste while also adding some much-needed light.

On our new series for ellentube, we are focused on creating affordable spaces in a short time ($1,000 budget & 24 hrs). It has been a dream of ours to design a vintage Airstream trailer and we finally got the opportunity to do it! This trailer was old dingy and no life! We transformed it back to life and gave it an outdoor living room to double the living space. You can see the full episode at: www.ellentube.com/GrandDesign

With a run-down outbuilding taking up valuable space in their yard, this client saw the perfect opportunity to create the ultimate zen multi-use space. Yoga, meditation, sound bowls and a calm and relaxing vibe this space is now the perfect room to relax, take in the views and get inspired.

A new 3 1/4" pre-finished from Shaw - Golden Opportunity was installed through the entire 2nd floor and all living spaces on the first floor. New hardwood stair treads and new risers for the main stair.

We love the opportunity to show off the drama created by bookmatch veining as beautifully apparent in this master bedroom fireplace. We used a 3cm polished Travertino Silverwild travertine slab for the surround with mitered returns to add thickness and a firebox opening.
