This Linworth area family friendly kitchen was remodeled by J.S. Brown & Co. with a focus on the specific needs of the homeowners. A walk in pantry, super wide farm sink, and extra tall counters are personalized to fit their wish list. Every detail was considered and accounted for!

Our custom cabinet shop did a superb job with this new primary closet cabinetry! Plenty of storage for hanging clothes, folded clothes, and shoe storage was accounted for while an island in the center provides drawer storage on both sides. The personality of these homeowners really comes through with a Rainforest Marble countertop on the island. The lighting design is flexible, allowing different settings for maximum light when using the island, or accent lighting on the clothing for a little less light in the early mornings.

Every once in a while, a project comes along that doesn’t just meet expectations—it resets the standard. That’s exactly what happened at Upper Valley project, where the team at GoDesigns El Paso was entrusted with a blank canvas and turned it into a fully integrated luxury retreat, built with precision, purpose, and passion. At the core of this dream backyard is a custom-designed pool and spa, meticulously planned and built together. The pool glows with a Pebble Brilliance finish, its deep, vibrant tones shimmering under sunlight by day and glowing softly under water-lit skies at night. Lightstreams glass tile adds a jewelry-like elegance to the raised spa and the sun shelf, creating rich reflections and textures from every angle. That sundeck isn’t just for lounging—it’s a tactile, thoughtful experience. Designed with Lightstreams glass tile, it’s where kids play, grownups cool off, and everyone can dip their toes and soak their feet in style. It’s as inviting to walk across as it is to sit beside, offering both elegance and functionality. A standout design element is the set of custom stainless steel handrails, elegantly curved and installed with sculptural intent. Not only are they beautiful, but they’re also built to last—resistant to corrosion, timeless in design, and made for safety without sacrificing aesthetics. While beauty was key, so was resilience. The entire project was engineered to meet 100-year flood zone requirements—a critical design element in this El Paso neighborhood. GoDesigns accounted for water flow, elevations, and structural integrity, ensuring that every footing, drainage channel, and grade slope works in harmony with nature. And there’s more than water to love here. The oversized mossrock boulder waterfall along the edge of the putting green is both functional and artistic. Designed as a “table rock” feature, it creates soothing sound and visual movement while anchoring the landscape’s natural side. It’s a conversation piece as much as a sensory experience. Just steps away is a personal putting green and a custom basketball half court, both thoughtfully illuminated for day-to-night enjoyment. The putting green rolls true, edged with boulders and sand pits, while the court boasts pro-level surfacing under bright, architectural pole lighting. The surrounding landscape design ties it all together. Carefully chosen plantings bring color, texture, and balance to the clean stonework and turf areas. Strategic lighting highlights not just the beauty of the plants, but also enhances safety, drama, and ambiance across the entire yard—including the fence lines, water features, and sports zones. Every inch of this Upper Valley Project was built for purpose, performance, and passion. It’s a space where families gather, grand kids play, and memories are made—all under the sun and stars of West Texas. This is what happens when GoDesigns El Paso gets to do what they do best: combine timeless design, elite materials, and masterful installation to create outdoor living environments that are not only beautiful, but unforgettable.

At our Ruyteplaats Project the 2 little girls are still young and they requested double bunks for their bedrooms which had to be in the same design. Cheryl took into account what colours, designs and patterns each child liked so that it reflected their own individual personalities. In this sweet little one’s bedroom we designed the most beautiful double bunk, with a bed above and a free standing double bed below it, making sure that it is modular so that the top section can be removed once the girls grow up and don’t want a double bunk any longer. The top section has a “roof” design, adorned with twinkling fairy lights which gives the girls bedrooms a warm and whimsical feel at night. A custom made “Narnia” chair was manufactured and upholstered in a stunning, textured boucle fabric for the corner of the room. We had hot air balloon wall paper printed as the canvas of this bedroom, which is contained inside the architectural mouldings, and we had a hot air balloon shelf made to go with this wall paper. Gorgeously patterned and tactile fabrics were used for the scatter cushions, and a chunky knit throw was made for the end of the bed. The dressing table with its Hollywood mirror and cute little dressing table stool was also custom made to fit this space perfectly. A soft luxurious round rug finishes off the room. This is truly the perfect bedroom for the cutest little Princess and she absolutely loves it, which makes our hearts very warm. This is why we love doing what we do so much. It’s all in the details, always and in all ways.

Transform Your Home with Expert Wallpaper Installation by Windy City Painters This dining room in Evanston, Illinois, recently underwent a stunning transformation, thanks to the team at Windy City Painters. As a trusted Chicago painter and wallpaper installer, we specialize in elevating spaces with expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. For this project, we installed bold, eclectic wallpaper on both the walls and ceiling—a design style that’s making a huge comeback in modern home décor. The ceiling wallpaper, in particular, is the highlight of this room. This intricate pattern required careful planning and precise installation to achieve a seamless look. Ceiling wallpaper installation is one of the most challenging aspects of our work. Gravity, delicate materials, and complex patterns make it a task that only skilled professionals should tackle. Every seam, alignment, and adhesive application must be perfect, as even minor mistakes can be glaringly obvious on a ceiling. This is why hiring an experienced wallpaper installer is essential, especially when working with expensive, custom, or delicate wallpaper. The process of wallpaper installation begins with careful surface preparation. Walls and ceilings need to be cleaned, repaired, and smoothed to ensure the wallpaper adheres properly. Next comes the meticulous measuring and cutting of wallpaper pieces, taking into account pattern repeats to ensure a flawless design flow. For ceilings, additional steps include precise alignment and support systems to keep the wallpaper in place as the adhesive sets. It’s a time-intensive process, but the results speak for themselves—creating a space that feels polished, cohesive, and unique. Bold, busy patterns, like the one used in this dining room, are becoming increasingly popular. This eclectic style is perfect for homeowners looking to add personality and drama to their spaces. When paired with complementary furniture and décor, it creates a harmonious yet striking aesthetic. In this case, the rich blue tones, paired with natural wood accents and mid-century modern furniture, make the room feel both elegant and inviting. At Windy City Painters, we pride ourselves on being a top Chicago painting contractor and wallpaper expert. Whether you’re looking to enhance your walls or tackle the challenge of ceiling wallpaper, our experienced team has you covered. Ready to bring your vision to life?

The outcome of the basement remodel turned out exceptionally well. The homeowner converted the unused 4’-high crawlspace into a daylight basement with skip trowel ceiling, Tuscan walls, concrete counter-tops and new bathroom with Jacuzzi tub. We took the uneven foundation and turned it into a shelf that goes around the perimeter. I was able to do the concrete counter-tops and they turned out really well. The shelf stands out in the room. We chose a light yellow hue for the cement to brighten up the area. The ceiling turned out to be a bit of a challenge, as we had to go around the newly installed furnace system, account to for all the angles and still allow adequate head room, especially in the bathroom. We utilized the low ceiling to put in mood lighting. The kitchen got several bright can lights in addition to mood lights. I normally prefer to use colored plaster, but on the request of the home owner, used the special Miller paint that reflects sunlight to make the daylight basement look brighter. Used the same paint on the ceiling, just ½ diluted with white. What we have done, is taken a crawl space and converted it into a lovely beautiful daylight basement with tones of room and a lot of personality.

Kitchens are seductive when photographed and published, as colors are coordinated, fruit and flowers arranged, clutter removed, lighting just so. What is difficult to tell from glossy images is how well a kitchen really works. The East Bay Kitchen for a Cook is an excellent example of a kitchen that really works. It is a kitchen for an accomplished cook. It is also a kitchen that is independent yet connected to a formal dining room, a kitchen with an informal ‘cafe nook’, and a kitchen ideal for a couple as well as a crowd. It is a true working kitchen for all occasions. There are many things to take into account when designing a kitchen - surfaces, materials, storage, circulation, spatial relationships, natural light. These are all important considerations in designing a kitchen. What is equally important in designing a kitchen is how a person works in a kitchen, and generally, what their kitchen is all about. Is it a kitchen for one or more cooks? Is there a ‘mess factor’ that the client wants to hide? Does the kitchen function purely as a kitchen or as a social center, or both? What is the relationship of the kitchen to adjacent rooms, and if there is a separate dining room, how does the circulation work between the two? For a kitchen to really work well, each one of these items need to be addressed and resolved. There are no generalized correct answers to any of these questions, only a correct answer for each individual cook. The original Kitchen for a Cook was small, dark, and cramped, with no connection to the dining room, which was the main eating area. A discourse began between the architect and the client, centered on how the client works in her kitchen and the desired relationship between the kitchen and dining room, which would remain the primary eating area in the renovated kitchen. Other important considerations were how to incorporate an informal ‘café nook’ in the kitchen, and how to have an easy circulation between kitchen and dining area, for both people and food.

Do you have a bathroom that needs to be updated? The Home Remodeling services from Cavalier Homes offer a fantastic opportunity to update a bathroom that is already functional or completely renovate one that requires a makeover. We can help with an aesthetic upgrade, whether your bathroom requires a minor repair or a complete renovation. There are various reasons why you might want to renovate your bathroom. Ultimately, there are three main reasons why most homeowners remodel their bathrooms. Increasing comfort Enhancing aesthetic Increasing the resale value There are a few things you should think about before beginning the bathroom renovation process if you want to create the bathroom of your dreams. Here are some of the important ones: Budget: Your budget should be taken into consideration first. You’ll be better able to make key choices during the renovation process if you’ve established a budget and know exactly how much you’re willing to spend on various products. Space: Since bathrooms are typically the smallest rooms in a home, it’s critical to make the most of every square inch that is available. There is nothing more annoying than buying fixtures that don’t fit, so take into account the layout of your bathroom and take precise measurements! Design and style: There are many styles and designs that can be achieved in the bathroom, regardless of whether you want it to blend in with the other rooms in your house or be completely different. Whatever style you’re trying to achieve—whether it’s something more traditional or more contemporary—we can assist you. Accessories: Small details can make a big difference, which is why you should carefully consider the style of each bathroom accessory you choose. With so many taps, showers, and other bathroom fixtures on the market today, making a decision isn’t as simple as you might think. Therefore, consider the style you want to achieve and make a decision accordingly. Storage Needs: If you’re short on space, try to be creative with your storage. Purchase furniture with lots of storage that doesn’t take up more floor space. For instance, vanity units are ideal because they are compact, offer excellent storage, and complement your preferred style. Utilize your space wisely and creatively. All shampoos and shower gels will be able to be stored in shelving units. Remember to incorporate it in the initial layout. Heating: By adding a top-notch heating system, you can keep your bathroom cozy. You can use underfloor heating systems or a conventional radiator. This will raise the temperature in each bathroom, enhancing comfort and warmth. This is not always a complete list. Many different delicate aspects that make your bathroom modern may require your consideration. The functionality of the bathroom has changed as a result of modern technology. Contact Cavalier Homes Inc. in West Islip, Long Island and one of our experts will walk you through your options.
