Chris and Sofia of Arlington Heights knew when they purchased their home that they would finish the basement. They needed a space for the kids to hang out, for family and friends to stay, and to have a better space for hosting holidays and parties. The dark unfinished space went mostly unused for three years, but once their kids reached the ideal age for use of a well-built basement, they moved ahead with their plan. “The old basement was dark and cold, and the kids came down and played, but they didn’t like it. The new space is like a whole other house, so we have this space for family game nights and for watching games or Super Bowl parties,” Chris said. The couple found Advance Design Studio through a friend who had their entire home renovated by the remodeling company. After the initial meeting and visiting the showroom, Chris and Sofia were positive that Advance Design was the company that could best turn their unfinished basement into a family friendly space for everyone to enjoy. “We really liked the showroom, we liked being able to choose all of those finishes and meet with them in one place,” Chris said. A Custom Space for a Family with Multiple Needs The project began with a fireplace focal point complete with an amazing entertainment wall, a fantastic full kitchen complete with every amenity, and a brand new full bath. The new basement truly has a space for everyone. If the kids want to watch a movie and hang out on the couch they can, if family wants to play games and have a pizza party on the large island they can, and if guests want to stay over night on the pull-out sofa they can enjoy the entire private “suite” complete with a full bath. It is the true definition of a multifunctional basement. The stunning, full kitchen is the highlight of this now bright and airy basement. You walk down the stairs and are immediately impressed with the detailed metal tile work on the ceiling, bringing to mind the classic feel of a comfortable old pub. Cherry Merlot cabinets provide a rich contrast against the soft neutral walls and the contrasting copper tin ceiling tile and backsplash. Rich Santa Cecelia granite countertops pair nicely with timeless stonework on the outer walls. The island is large enough to provide a more than adequate entertaining space, and provides plenty of both seating and storage. The well-appointed kitchen houses a regular size refrigerator, a full size oven for pizza parties and cookie baking anytime, a microwave oven as well as complete sink and trash set up. One could easily do without a home kitchen forever in this generously designed secondary space! The fireplace and buffet wall seating area is the ideal place to watch movies or sporting events. The coordinating stonework on the fireplace flows throughout the basement, and a burnt orange accent wall brings color and warmth to otherwise ordinary basement space. The Elite Merlot media buffet compliments the kitchen as well as provides storage and a unique functional display option, giving this part of the basement a sophisticated, yet functional feel. The full bath is complete with a unique furniture style cherry DuraSupreme vanity and matching custom designed mirror. The weathered look to the cabinets and mirror give the bathroom some earthy texture as does the stone floor in the walk-in shower. Soft blue makes the space a spa-like mini retreat, and the handsome wall to wall tile and granite speak luxury at every corner. Advance Design added clever custom storage spaces to take advantage of otherwise wasted corners. They built a custom mudroom for the kids to house their sports equipment and a handy built in bench area with basket pull outs for a custom home gym. “They were able to custom fit this second mudroom with the lockers and the bench, they were able to custom build that, so the kids could store all of their equipment down here for the sports that they are in,” Chris said. They Got The Amazing Space They Had Envisioned for Years! The basement Chris and Sofia had envisioned had come to life in a few short months of planning, design and construction, just a perfect fit in the summer months. Advance Design Studio was able to design and build a custom, multifunctional space that the whole family can enjoy. “I would recommend Advance Design because of the showroom, because of the cleanliness on the jobsite and the professionalism, combined with Christine’s design side as well as Todd’s builder’s side - it’s nice to have it all together,” reminisced Chris after the project was complete.

The mammoth phalanxes of white-brick apartment houses that proliferated in the 1960s occupy an architectural purgatory; generic, with boxy interiors devoid of detail, many aren’t even interesting enough to excite a raised eyebrow. Our solution for this exemplar near Astor Place, which fortunately was blessed with premium skyline views, was to relieve the interior ordinariness by stimulating the senses with tactile variety. Axis Mundi created a complexly layered textural palette that injects visual adrenaline into the architectural envelope: a television set into a waxed steel panel topped by clerestory windows with a built-in planter for grasses; wenge wood walls rising from richly figured walnut floors; white subway tile surrounding a subtly colored penny-tile mosaic tub and wall; in the kitchen, Venetian plaster, steel, stone and wood mix harmoniously as a surprisingly spiced exotic concoction. The interiors exude a confident masculinity that challenges the complacency of bland, white-box living.

Transforming Outdoor Living: A Case Study of Our Elegant Backyard Project In the heart of residential architecture, where outdoor spaces are extensions of our homes, a well-designed backyard can transform ordinary living into an extraordinary experience. Our latest project exemplifies this transformation by merging modern design, functionality, and aesthetic appeal into a single cohesive outdoor living space. This case study delves into the intricate details of our backyard project, highlighting the thoughtful design elements, strategic installations, and the ultimate impact on homeowners' lifestyles. Conceptualization and Planning The project's inception began with a thorough understanding of the client's vision. They desired a backyard that not only served as a retreat for relaxation but also as an elegant space for entertaining guests. The challenge was to create a multi-functional area that maintained a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. Our design team conducted several site visits and consultations, ensuring every detail aligned with the client's expectations and the spatial dynamics of their home. Design Elements The design phase was driven by the principles of modern elegance and functionality. Central to the backyard is a sleek lap pool, designed for both leisurely swims and visual appeal. The pool's clean lines and contemporary finish are complemented by a modern water feature, adding a serene ambiance with the gentle sound of flowing water. Adjacent to the pool, we installed a stylish pergola that provides shaded seating and dining areas. This pergola is not just a structural addition but a pivotal element that enhances the usability of the space. Underneath, an elegant dining setup allows for al fresco meals, while a comfortable seating area invites relaxation. The integration of outdoor lighting within the pergola ensures the space is usable and inviting even after sunset. Greenery and Landscaping Landscaping plays a crucial role in softening the modern hardscapes and adding a touch of nature. We selected a variety of lush plants and succulents, strategically placing them around the pool and along the fence line. Modern planters filled with cascading greenery add vertical interest and a touch of sophistication. The greenery not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also creates a tranquil atmosphere, making the backyard a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Functional Installations A key aspect of this project was to ensure that the backyard was as functional as it was beautiful. To this end, we included an outdoor kitchen equipped with a grill and preparation area. This setup allows the homeowners to host outdoor gatherings seamlessly, without the need to constantly shuttle between the indoor kitchen and the backyard. Additionally, the installation of high-quality outdoor furniture ensures comfort and durability. Each piece was chosen for its ability to withstand various weather conditions while maintaining its aesthetic integrity. The dining and seating areas are both stylish and practical, encouraging long hours of enjoyment outdoors. Impact and Reception The completed project has significantly enhanced the homeowners' quality of life. The backyard has become a favorite spot for both everyday relaxation and special occasions. The seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces has created a versatile environment that adapts to different needs, from quiet afternoons by the pool to lively dinner parties under the pergola. The client's feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the transformative power of thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship. They have expressed particular appreciation for the balance of modern aesthetics and natural elements, which together create a harmonious and inviting space. Conclusion This backyard project stands as a testament to our commitment to excellence in design and installation. By listening to our clients and meticulously planning each element, we have created an outdoor living space that exceeds expectations. It is not just a backyard; it is a carefully curated environment that enhances daily living and provides a beautiful backdrop for creating lasting memories. This project exemplifies how thoughtful design and strategic planning can transform an outdoor space into a true extension of the home.

In San Jose's dynamic landscape, May Construction has recently completed a kitchen and great room remodel that brilliantly showcases their expertise in blending contemporary design with practical elegance. This project, distinguished by its unique blend of modern and classic elements, stands as a testament to May Construction's ability to transform ordinary spaces into extraordinary living experiences. As you step into this newly remodeled space, the first thing that catches your eye is the exquisite kitchen. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the shaker style kitchen cabinets, made of fine maple, exude a sense of warmth and durability. The birch dovetail drawers, finished in a pristine white, complement the cabinets' elegant design, embodying both beauty and strength. Central to the kitchen's functionality are the state-of-the-art stainless-steel appliances. A standout feature is the electric double oven convection, boasting a fingerprint-resistant finish, catering to the modern San Jose homeowner's desire for style and practicality. The ceiling, adorned with new canned lights, bathes the room in a welcoming glow. A Nantucket single bowl stainless steel sink paired with an Allegro high arc stainless steel faucet; the sink area is not just a utility space but a statement of sophistication. The countertops around the kitchen perimeter are crafted from black Vermont honed granite slabs, offering a striking contrast to the white cabinetry. The kitchen island, the centerpiece of this remodel, features an exquisite Oceano polished quartzite slab, enhancing the room's luxurious feel. Surrounding the kitchen walls, Tomei Field Stratus natural tiles create a cohesive backdrop, transitioning into a serene light blue near the new window, reflecting San Jose’s vibrant yet refined style.

Wide open style with fresh, modern details update the traditional Shaker Potters Mill Reverse Raised door to create a transitional style defined by shape, texture and materials. Discover the built-in appliances cleverly concealed behind the wood panels flanking the double-oven. Attention is centered on the organic beauty of the wood, drawing in the natural light and bringing the outdoors in to this living space. Ask your designer about how to use decorative aluminum feet, glass surfaces, and multiple workspace levels to transform an ordinary kitchen island into a center for conversing and entertaining. Open floating shelves and a built-in desk space make easy work of organized living. Potters Mill Reverse Raised built-in entertainment center may wrap the television in smart storage, but when combined with modern light fixtures, glass tile and natural wood cabinetry, the effect is a flowing space for entertaining in a updated transitional style.

The homeowners in Rancho Santa Margarita wanted a kitchen that was anything but ordinary—something bold, modern, and strikingly unique. This remodel features rich walnut cabinetry paired with dramatic black quartz countertops and a matching full-height backsplash, creating an elegant yet moody aesthetic. The sleek matte black fixtures and high-end stainless steel appliances add a refined contrast, making the space feel luxurious and cutting-edge. From the moment they saw the finished design, the homeowners were in awe of how the space perfectly blended warmth and modern sophistication. Now, their kitchen isn’t just a place to cook—it’s a stunning centerpiece that brings their vision to life.

This home was stuck in the "80's" and in desperate need of a face lift. We achieved the transformation by lightening the spaces, changing the fireplaces, and completely redoing the Master Bath. The Powder Room was changed from an ordinary space into a little jewel box. Complete with 24k fixtures and tiles to complement the wall covering. The Master Bedroom became a sanctuary with its soft silver and dusty aqua tones. In the Kitchen we chose to refinish the cabinets rather than replace them. The result was stunning. What a change! The dining room is modern and sophisticated, with flashes of color in the chairs, and a giant agate centerpiece trough. Quite the upgrade from what was there before. The living room features a beautifully restored Steinway piano. Plus, custom furniture and area rug. All in all, a real showpiece. One that is sophisticated, inviting, and comfortable. A good place to call home. Abran Rubiner
