Retirement, and the need for a dedicated home office, prompted this Mountain Brook couple to engage in a remodel of their detached apartment-garage. This was the couple’s second remodel with Oak Alley.
Inside, the work focused on transforming and updating the old storage area into a practical office space for the homeowner and separate laundry area for the upstairs tenant. Rot was discovered and removed. New stud walls were constructed. The room was insulated with foam, and ductwork was connected to the existing HVAC unit to provide climate control. The wiring was replaced, and outlets installed. The walls and suspended ceiling system were finished in gypsum wallboard to give a clean look. To separate the laundry, HVAC system, and water heater from the office area, we installed frosted glass doors to provide access while retaining the natural light. LED lights throughout the room provide abundant brightness. The original concrete floor was stained and left visible.
Outside, the rotten and aged wood siding was removed entirely. Where water had flowed for years, copious amounts of rot were cut away. The structure was wrapped using Zip System sheathing. Allura ColorMax 7.25” smooth lap siding and ColorMax trim were used on the exterior. Excluding a few newer windows at the rear, all windows were replaced with insulated, vinyl, Low-E windows with grills. Aluminum gutters and downspouts were installed. Sherwin Williams “Aurora Brown,” was found to blend with the color of the main house’s bricks and shingle siding, bringing the exterior color as close as possible to the original color. Cedar braced awnings with cedar shingles dressed each entryway, finishing the structure in style, blending it perfectly with the existing house.

The clients wanted to separate the laundry zone from the bathroom in their basement. They also wanted a larger bathroom with a walk-in glass shower and an added large and functional laundry space across the hallway. While renovating the laundry zone we also created closed storage with sliding doors on both sides of the laundry zone. The bathroom was extended 24’’ into the adjoining family den to allow for a vary large shower. We designed a custom vanity with a rustic wood finish, recommended all the tiles and finishes as well as the ceiling lighting and vanity pendant lights. The floors are heated for greater comfort in this basement bathroom and laundry area. We designed the wall-mounted plumbing with a gorgeous royal blue arabesque wall tile and rustic wood shelf. The revamped basement bathroom is roomy, uncluttered, stylish and very practical for a growing family.
Materials used:
Schluter Ditra-Heat Floor, Uniboard custom vanity and shelving finishes, Quartz counter top, Sherwin Williams paint, Chrome industrial pendant lighting, porcelain vessel sink, Chrome Riobel wall-mounted faucet and shower fixtures, 2’’ x 2’’ grey ceramic shower floor tile, 12 x 24 grey shower wall tile, 24’’ x 24’’ heated floor tile, blue arabesque mosaic vanity backsplash with white grout, chrome 24’’round mirror, chrome Riobel paper-holder and towel ring, white storage cabinets over the washer-dryer with an added pole for air-drying.

Imagine a compact backyard home in Golden that keeps family close but gives everyone space. The Golden ADU sits west of North Table Mountain, offering owners a private retreat so their kids' family can take the main house – all while framing epic Denver views.
The owners needed independence with family ties, so we created a unit that balances privacy and proximity. South-facing design captures stunning plains and city sights for daily inspiration.
Multi-generational living can feel crowded, but this ADU provides a separate, functional space without sacrificing connection. It handles site limits by maximizing views and light efficiently.
The concept mixes sloped roofs and simple boxes for a fresh, modern feel that fits the landscape. A large deck extends the living area outdoors, inviting relaxation amid the scenery.
Standard wood framing keeps it durable and budget-friendly, built strong for Colorado's elements.
South orientation and big windows bring in passive solar warmth and natural light, reducing energy needs while keeping things cozy.
Practical main floor with one bedroom, two baths, office, mudroom, and open kitchen-living – all designed for ease and flow.
Completed in 2022, the Golden ADU is a smart solution for family living. It blends privacy, views, and efficiency, creating a peaceful space that strengthens bonds and enhances life in the mountains.

A Spa-Like Bathroom Retreat
This bathroom started out with an outdated layout that didn’t make the best use of space. The finishes felt tired, and the room lacked the kind of flow and luxury that homeowners today are looking for. Our goal was to completely reimagine the space into a bright, functional, and spa-inspired retreat that blends modern design with timeless comfort.
Here’s how we transformed it:
Custom walk-in shower: We installed large-format porcelain tiles with a soft marble veining that makes the shower feel sleek and high-end. A built-in bench and recessed niche add everyday convenience, while dual showerheads (including a rainfall option) create a spa-worthy experience. The linear drain keeps the design seamless and modern.
Freestanding soaker tub: A sculptural tub now sits by the window, giving the homeowners a relaxing place to unwind. It also adds a stunning visual element that elevates the entire room.
Bright and airy design: Soft neutral tones on the walls and floor make the bathroom feel bigger and brighter. Paired with pot lights and natural light from the windows, the room feels open and inviting at any time of day.
Double vanity upgrade: We installed a spacious dual-sink vanity with a quartz countertop that’s both elegant and practical. The soft-close cabinetry offers plenty of storage while keeping the look clean and streamlined. Polished hardware and fixtures tie it all together with a subtle touch of luxury.
Finishing details: Every fixture and finish was carefully selected to create a cohesive look — from the sleek shower glass and brushed hardware to the statement light fixtures above the mirrors.
The end result is a bathroom that feels like a private retreat. It’s spacious, functional, and stylish — the kind of space that makes you look forward to your morning routine and your evening wind-down.

Bringing visions to life. ✨
This stunning project began with the plans of the renowned architect Philip Hazan, and I had the honor of turning those plans into reality by managing the project and handling the interior design.
It started with guiding the clients through selecting the perfect stone, materials, color palette, plumbing fixtures, and other essential elements. I worked closely to tweak the cabinetry and millwork designs to reflect their unique style while ensuring functionality.
For this ensuite transformation, I began by meticulously planning the execution—creating a detailed budget, timeline, and schedule—and selecting the best skilled teams to deliver an upscale result. From complete demolition to rebuilding from the skeleton, I was on-site every single day, ensuring every design detail was executed to perfection.
