What woman doesn't need a space of their own?!? With this gorgeous dressing room my client is able to relax and enjoy the process of getting ready for her day. We kept the hanging open and easily accessible while still giving a boutique feel to the space. We paint matched the existing room crown to give this unit a truly built in look.

The master bathroom is large with plenty of built-in storage space and double vanity. The countertops carry on from the kitchen. A large freestanding tub sits adjacent to the window next to the large stand-up shower. The floor is a dark great chevron tile pattern that grounds the lighter design finishes.

The use of clear White Oak for shelving (that looks and feels like furniture), for the gas fireplace framing and hearth, cabinet drawers, a countertop, even for the stair steps ties everything together.

Tall board and batten wainscoting is used to wrap this ensuite bath. An antique dresser was converted into a sink.

Living room - contemporary medium tone wood floor and brown floor living room idea in San Francisco with beige walls and a standard fireplace

I was hired by the parents of a soon-to-be teenage girl turning 13 years-old. They wanted to remodel her bedroom from a young girls room to a teenage room. This project was a joy and a dream to work on! I got the opportunity to channel my inner child. I wanted to design a space that she would love to sleep in, entertain, hangout, do homework, and lounge in. The first step was to interview her so that she would feel like she was a part of the process and the decision making. I asked her what was her favorite color, what was her favorite print, her favorite hobbies, if there was anything in her room she wanted to keep, and her style. The second step was to go shopping with her and once that process started she was thrilled. One of the challenges for me was making sure I was able to give her everything she wanted. The other challenge was incorporating her favorite pattern-- zebra print. I decided to bring it into the room in small accent pieces where it was previously the dominant pattern throughout her room. The color palette went from light pink to her favorite color teal with pops of fuchsia. I wanted to make the ceiling a part of the design so I painted it a deep teal and added a beautiful teal glass and crystal chandelier to highlight it. Her room became a private oasis away from her parents where she could escape to. In the end we gave her everything she wanted. Photography by Haigwood Studios

Ryan Garvin photographer - Choose a breezy retreat for your home with this newly expanded 3000 sq ft beauty in the highly valued Baycrest / Dover Shores community. An abundance of natural light works beautifully for this modern Cape Cod, with a recent remodel that includes current and high end finishes and whole house solar. Families are attracted by the high rated schools like Mariners Elementary and close proximity to cultural attractions of Westcliff and Newport Beach. The recently landscaped property covers over 10,000 sq ft and with an open, breezy floor plan, you’ll hardly feel like you’ve left the beach. Once through the private courtyard entry you will find a nice outdoor entertaining area off the dining room. Enjoy a grand entry into the space with vaulted ceilings, an elegant chandelier and tons of natural light. Dinner parties are perfection, with an oversized kitchen whose designer features include reclaimed wood barn doors in pantry, Calcutta marble counters, wolf range & a large central island with prep sink & storage. The most stunning feature to this kitchen, however, are the bi-fold windows above the sink that open to reveal a breakfast serving bar, directly onto the pool patio. Everything about this home is designed to bring the outside in, with a style all its own. The spacious living room sits right next to an entertaining area, with a fireplace & vaulted ceiling. The family room boasts top of the lines surround sound & a ceiling fan to keep the light breeze flowing through its spacious interior. Sliding doors open to the pool deck, cozying right up to a new pool with Baja deck and jacuzzi spa. A large pergola, BBQ Island & outside shower round out the otherwise low maintenance yard’s features, a restful retreat within your own home. The Master Bedroom Retreat earns its name with a vaulted ceiling, more shiplap walls, chandelier & Dutch doors to reveal a private porch. The Walk in Master Closet sports custom spacious cabinets, while the bath also hosts a steam shower to complement the double sinks & built-in marble-top vanity. All 4 bedrooms showcase specialized shades, with Jack & Jill bathrooms servicing two. Then there’s the fourth bedroom, perfect for guests or a home office with separate exterior entrance. Everything about this property is modern; even the laundry room feels special with a sink, marble counters & plentiful storage. A stylish custom door brings you into the 2.5 car garage with hallway that holds a marble key drop counter, epoxy floors & a ventilated attic. It’s a unique property, updated and waiting for you to call it HOME.

The combination of natural stone walls and hedges assisted with the challenging site grading and was an opportunity to create the desired ‘secret’ garden feel.

When you enter the new space, you’ll be surprised by how bright it is. Looking to the right you’ll see a free-standing island designed for entertaining, with liquor drawer, beer and wine fridge below, and a granite countertop above. Running a support post through the countertop made the post blend into the design. Both support poles, the main beam, and all soffits were boxed in and painted light gray. The new three-quarter bath features a porcelain floor and bright porcelain tiled walk-in shower. The new laundry room and utility rooms are enclosed with matching white doors, the design makes this space bright and welcoming. An important part of good basement renovation.
