We updated this 1907 two-story family home for re-sale. We added modern design elements and amenities while retaining the home’s original charm in the layout and key details. The aim was to optimize the value of the property for a prospective buyer, within a reasonable budget. New French doors from kitchen and a rear bedroom open out to a new bi-level deck that allows good sight lines, functional outdoor living space, and easy access to a garden full of mature fruit trees. French doors from an upstairs bedroom open out to a private high deck overlooking the garden. The garage has been converted to a family room that opens to the garden. The bathrooms and kitchen were remodeled the kitchen with simple, light, classic materials and contemporary lighting fixtures. New windows and skylights flood the spaces with light. Stained wood windows and doors at the kitchen pick up on the original stained wood of the other living spaces. New redwood picture molding was created for the living room where traces in the plaster suggested that picture molding has originally been. A sweet corner window seat at the living room was restored. At a downstairs bedroom we created a new plate rail and other redwood trim matching the original at the dining room. The original dining room hutch and woodwork were restored and a new mantel built for the fireplace. We built deep shelves into space carved out of the attic next to upstairs bedrooms and added other built-ins for character and usefulness. Storage was created in nooks throughout the house. A small room off the kitchen was set up for efficient laundry and pantry space. We provided the future owner of the house with plans showing design possibilities for expanding the house and creating a master suite with upstairs roof dormers and a small addition downstairs. The proposed design would optimize the house for current use while respecting the original integrity of the house.

High-Functionality Laundry & Utility Room in Charlottesville, VA Description: As part of our extensive whole-home interior overhaul in Charlottesville, Integrity Design + Build transformed this narrow footprint into a high-performance laundry and utility hub. This project demonstrates how thoughtful space planning can turn a secondary room into one of the most hardworking areas of the home. To maximize the long, galley-style layout, we installed a seamless run of white shaker-style cabinetry paired with durable white quartz countertops. The design features a deep, integrated utility sink with a high-arc faucet, perfect for everything from soaking linens to quick clean-ups. To save precious floor space, we utilized a stacked washer and dryer configuration, allowing for additional countertop workspace and specialized storage nooks, including a dedicated area for pet needs. Key Design Features: Space-Saving Stacked Units: Maximizes vertical square footage in a compact layout. Custom Task Lighting: Bright under-cabinet LEDs ensure a well-lit workspace for sorting and folding. Integrated Utility Sink: A high-end undermount stainless steel sink that blends utility with a clean, modern aesthetic. Optimized Storage: A mix of closed cabinetry and open nooks designed to house laundry baskets and supplies. Cohesive Flooring: The wide-plank white oak-style flooring continues from the main living areas, ensuring a unified feel throughout the home. Whether you are looking to optimize a mudroom or execute a full-scale home renovation in Charlottesville, Integrity Design + Build specializes in creating spaces that are as beautiful as they are functional.

We absolutely love the final result of this unique, two-toned kitchen! Our clients came to us with the need for a lot of love in their kitchen. Their home, situated in the Fox Ridge neighboorhood of Centennial, is a lovely and spacious house with lots of potential. The kitchen, while very sizable, contained a number of super dated elements. Our goal was to give the kitchen a complete aesthetic facelift, but to also encourage better function in the kitchen. Our primary concern was disconnecting the existing (huge) peninsula and replacing it with a centralized island. This busy family of four will benefit from the gathering space the island provides. We worked with the existing ceiling condition to create a unique, recessed wood-clad ceiling that offers a gorgeous rustic aesthetic. The existing linoleum flooring was replaced with beautiful walnut hardwood. New cabinets were installed in a two-toned orientation. The upper cabinets are a soft stone gray and the lowers are a painted hazelnut. We've stacked cabinets next to the range to create a secondary pantry storage area, and repaired portions of the existing pantry to optimize shelving space and appearance. The kitchen also includes a new desk area integrated into the cabinet run for homework and to-do lists. A new large, singe-basin sink and pull-down faucet were installed, and the kitchen is brought together by the mini-stacked stone backsplash that brings texture and warmth to the room. We've offered durable and beautiful working surfaces by topping the cabinets with quartz countertops: MSI Boletus against the window wall and MSI Concerto on the island. We love the look the of this final result, but particularly love the optimized function that it offers this wonderful family!

This Seattle penthouse kitchen was remodeled to create a luxurious space for the owners to relax as well as host friends and family. The wall between the kitchen and dining area was opened up the new large peninsula with 48” Miele range and ceiling mounted hood vent take advantage of the downtown views and optimize the space for entertaining. The kitchen sink was moved to the window and a prep sink was added near the new Subzero refrigerator. The layout was optimized for food preparation, cooking and clean up with modern finishes including grey cabinetry, light quartz countertops and large scale porcelain tile. It was a pleasure to work with the busy professional couple on updating their home and they are thrilled with the finished design. Contractor and photography: Cornerstone Construction Group
