Our picnic-style indoor table is handcrafted of Northern European solid Nordic pine. Historically used by the British Royal Navy for ship masts, Nordic pine grows at a slower rate due to the colder climate, making it extremely strong with very few knots.

Patio - mid-sized contemporary backyard concrete paver patio idea in San Francisco with a pergola

The goal for these clients was to build a new home with a transitional design that was large enough for their children and grandchildren to visit, but small enough to age in place comfortably with a budget they could afford on their retirement income. They wanted an open floor plan, with plenty of wall space for art and strong connections between indoor and outdoor spaces to maintain the original garden feeling of the lot. A unique combination of cultures is reflected in the home – the husband is from Haiti and the wife from Switzerland. The resulting traditional design aesthetic is an eclectic blend of Caribbean and Old World flair. Jim Barsch Photography

The side yard is used for a outdoor seating and playing area. The picnic table was made out of reclaimed wood that used to be a deck. The teeter tooter is made from bike seats and handlebars. And corn hole (the red board) is hours of fun for all! Vivian Johnson

Home design - rustic home design idea in Charlotte

  Free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW   Our clients and their three teenage kids had outgrown the footprint of their existing home and felt they needed some space to spread out. They came in with a couple of sets of drawings from different architects that were not quite what they were looking for, so we set out to really listen and try to provide a design that would meet their objectives given what the space could offer. We started by agreeing that a bump out was the best way to go and then decided on the size and the floor plan locations of the mudroom, powder room and butler pantry which were all part of the project. We also planned for an eat-in banquette that is neatly tucked into the corner and surrounded by windows providing a lovely spot for daily meals. The kitchen itself is L-shaped with the refrigerator and range along one wall, and the new sink along the exterior wall with a large window overlooking the backyard. A large island, with seating for five, houses a prep sink and microwave. A new opening space between the kitchen and dining room includes a butler pantry/bar in one section and a large kitchen pantry in the other. Through the door to the left of the main sink is access to the new mudroom and powder room and existing attached garage. White inset cabinets, quartzite countertops, subway tile and nickel accents provide a traditional feel. The gray island is a needed contrast to the dark wood flooring. Last but not least, professional appliances provide the tools of the trade needed to make this one hardworking kitchen.

Patio - craftsman patio idea in Other

This 1950s Marin home underwent a dramatic transformation. We replaced sliding glass door with this floor to ceiling glass door that opens completely onto the hip patio and painted the exterior white. Its California indoor/outdoor living at its finest.

This home started out as a very typical rectangular rancher. With adding some depth and roof structures to the front façade and a beautiful timber framed covered deck in the back this home now has real character. Couple those exterior upgrades with a full interior upgrade and this home has become a real show piece.
