This stunning bathroom renovation in Selkirk is one of our favorites recently. Under the expert guidance of Project Manager, EJ Bonacker, and the creative vision of Designer, Sarah McDonald, our team transformed this dated bathroom into a luxurious spa-like retreat! We worked diligently to meet the client’s desire for a modern update while ensuring ample storage and a relaxing showering experience. By reimagining the layout, we optimized the available square footage, allowing for a generous shower footprint. With more space, we were able to plan a double sink with a center tower to stow away all the bathroom necessities. A soothing and soft color palette was carefully selected to create a calm and serene ambiance, promoting relaxation and tranquility. The custom ledge in the shower not only adds a touch of elegance, but serves a practical purpose as home for soaps, shampoos and other bathing necessities kept within easy reach. We are incredibly proud of this renovation and are looking forward to getting started on their other bathroom this fall. Let us help you create the perfect oasis in your home!

Rustic Lake Cottage Transformation
This charming lake cottage was completely reimagined, building up from the existing structure to create a fully functional yet spacious vacation home. The interior was entirely gutted, the ceiling removed, and a loft was added, enhancing both height and openness.
Though compact, the home feels airy and inviting, with a carefully planned layout that includes three small bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, a dining room, a walk-in pantry, a mudroom, and a full bath featuring a barrier-free shower and a standalone tub. The rustic design is brought to life with stained natural wood plank floors and ceilings, while the walls are clad in painted wood planks for a warm yet bright aesthetic.
The cathedral ceiling in the living room, bathroom, and loft bedroom adds a sense of grandeur, complemented by exposed beams that enhance the rustic charm. The open staircase with steel bar railings and open risers maintains sightlines, ensuring the space remains visually connected.
A step-down dining room features built-in storage and a TV, making efficient use of space. The gray-painted kitchen cabinets, paired with granite countertops, blend seamlessly into the great room, while a walk-in pantry provides additional storage. Compact appliances and leather furniture further optimize the home’s footprint.
Custom barn doors throughout the home serve as both functional and decorative elements, concealing the coat closet, washer/dryer closet, and bedrooms. Expansive new windows flood the space with natural light, offering picturesque lake views. Finishing touches include recessed lighting, painted gray wood siding, and thoughtful design choices that make this cozy retreat feel effortlessly spacious.
This renovation balances form and function, delivering a rustic yet refined getaway that embraces its lakeside setting.

Simplicity in Design
The kitchen design has clean modern lines without unnecessary ornamentation to create a minimalist style that promotes tranquility and order, and a sense of calm and orderliness in the space. Storage solutions were optimized to reduce clutter and make the kitchen feel more spacious and welcoming.

A testament to innovation, sustainability, and familial harmony nestled within the serene confines of a Seattle neighborhood near Dahl Playfield. An eager young family embarking on their first foray into homeownership with a vision for a home that's as unique as it is integrated.
In response to their aspirations, we crafted a residence that defies conformity—a departure from cookie-cutter designs while seamlessly blending into its surroundings. Our Dahl House features a distinctive slanted profile, subtly angled towards the sunlit south, optimizing natural light and solar panel efficiency.
With sustainability as our guiding principle, every facet of the design prioritizes eco-consciousness. From superior insulation surpassing code requirements to energy-efficient LED lighting and solar-ready infrastructure, the home epitomizes environmental stewardship without compromising on style or comfort.
Functionality meets charm in the heart of the home—the integrated kitchen, living, and dining areas—which serve as focal points for family interaction and engagement. Additionally, special provisions such as a dedicated study area for children and a whimsical loft enhance the home's livability and charm.
In essence, our design isn't just a structure—it's a canvas for vibrant family life, where innovation meets intimacy, and sustainability coexists with style. Welcome to our Dahl House—a haven designed for interactive living, where every detail fosters connection and coziness.

To optimize storage space, Bakes & Kropp installed sleek floor-to-ceiling custom cabinets. Frameless overlay doors give the impression of inset drawers, and under-cabinet lighting adds an extra layer of functionality. Finished in Benjamin Moore’s ‘Decorator’s White,’ the cabinets balance rift-cut oak for a contemporary yet classic design with nickel accents and hardware for ornamental flair.

This unique lakefront home situated in north western New Jersey is the inspiration of the owner who wanted to create a comfortable and elegant retreat. The goal was to optimize the scenic aspect of the lake front site and improving the design and flow of the living space. It was important to preserve the character of the original rustic lake cabin and retain many of the details unique to homes built in the area in the 1950’s. Modern amenities were incorporated with an emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability.

In this home remodeling project, the homeowner's goal was a more open and welcoming kitchen for his family. To create this inviting atmosphere, the wall that previously separated the kitchen from the rest of the home was removed, effectively opening up the space. With the newfound room, a larger island was introduced, becoming the heart of the kitchen and offering ample space for family gatherings and casual dining. A striking penny round tile backsplash was added above the sink, infusing the space with color and visual interest, while new appliance placements were strategically designed to optimize kitchen flow. The incorporation of cabinet accessories contributed to a clutter-free environment, and the addition of benches around the dining table added a cozy and welcoming touch, ensuring that this kitchen has become the ideal hub for family life.

The elegant entryway showcases an exquisite console table as the centerpiece. Thoughtful decor accents add style and warmth, setting the tone for what lies beyond.

This full property landscape design and build presented Pro-Land with the opportunity to creatively work with existing grades, while considering the restrictions of an abutting conservation authority. Keeping this in mind we were able to optimize the views of the greenery around the property, while creating a functional outdoor entertainment area.
The client wanted a classic design for the front; flagstone walkways to tie in with the colors from the house and an entry wall frames the front door. The goal in the backyard was to create various areas for entertaining, without sacrificing play spaces for their children – the size of the property made accommodating their wishes fairly easy. A sports court, pool with water feature, cabana, and outdoor kitchen ensure these homeowners don’t have to go far for their next vacation.

LIgne Roset - MOSTRA

The prime objective of the Mostra bed-sofa is to optimise the usage and quality of the sleep area on a day-to-day basis whilst offering the visual charm and comfort of a 'real' sofa.
Aesthetics and comfort join forces to cause the user to forget that this successfully-proportioned settee conceals an ultra-performing mechanism to more than meet the demands of daily use.
To make delivery easier it is supplied in disassembled form, in 2 packs: one for the mechanism, seat and back cushions, and the other for the sides, front and backrest.

Concealed Sliding Door System: Made of high-quality aluminium alloy, this magic hidden sliding door hardware combines aesthetics with long-lasting durability.
Its zero clearance from the wall design makes it perfect for various spaces, including study rooms, storage rooms, kitchens, wardrobes, pantries, and more.
Soft Close Barn Door Hardware Kit: The kit features a double soft close mechanism that ensures the door slides smoothly and quietly, with performance tested for over 100,000 rolls.
The high-precision aluminium track keeps the door hidden, providing a sleek and durable solution for better privacy.

We recently completed the design and construction of this beautiful 3800 s.f. contemporary Colorado mountain home, above the foothills of Boulder. We designed the house to maximize the sweeping views of Indian Peaks mountain range, while simultaneously optimizing passive solar design. The open floor plan brings natural light and passive cooling into every part of the house; the vaulted ceilings create an airy, sunny feeling. Every room opens to generous patios and decks to facilitate easy indoor/outdoor living. White Oak floors, granite counters and local flagstone finishes lend a warm modern texture to the home. We carefully preserved one hand-built quartz wall that was part of the house that formerly occupied the site, and restored the original adjacent homestead, successfully receiving Historic Landmark designation. This very energy efficient home (HERS 40 – uses 60% less energy than allowed by code), uses solar–photovoltaics, foam insulation, Energy Star windows & appliances, LED lighting, and a high-efficiency mechanical system. It uses EPA Watersense plumbing fixtures and Xeric landscaping to dramatically reduce water
