While these Lafayette homeowners were generally content with their kitchen’s overall footprint, they were discontent with the functional use of their space and the dated style. They needed more storage, better functional use of their cabinet space, and a brighter, more sophisticated design. Riverside recommended a pull and replace renovation as the perfect solution.
The first step was to remove the soffit over the bar seating area, replacing it with two beautiful bubble glass pendants that created a striking focal point for the room. The dated cabinets were replaced with Wellborn Premier Prairie Full Overlay Cherry cabinetry and 5-piece drawer fronts that were finished with a ‘ginger’ stain. The couple especially loved the practical pull-out drawers for easy access to spices and other cooking essentials.
A glossy white ceramic tile backsplash lightened up the kitchen, while the Daltile Deco Mosaic mural behind the stovetop created another decorative focal point for the room. The new Giallo Ornamental Granite countertops were finished with a half bevel edge and the flooring was replaced with Cove Creek Glazed Porcelain floor tile.

Revamping the laundry room brings a blend of functionality and style to an often-overlooked space. Upgrading appliances to energy-efficient models enhances efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.
Custom cabinetry and shelving solutions maximize storage for detergents, cleaning supplies, and laundry essentials, promoting an organized and clutter-free environment. Consideration of ergonomic design, such as a folding counter or ironing station, streamlines tasks and adds a touch of convenience.
Thoughtful lighting choices, perhaps with LED fixtures or natural light sources, contribute to a bright and inviting atmosphere. Flooring upgrades for durability, such as water-resistant tiles or easy-to-clean materials, can withstand the demands of laundry tasks.
Ultimately, a remodeled laundry room not only elevates its practical functionality but also transforms it into a well-designed, efficient space that makes the often-dreaded chore of laundry a more pleasant experience.

A Mudroom and Bar That Just Make Sense
Although the mudroom and main-level bar are not side-by-side, we designed them to complement each other, incorporating the same deep charcoal tones and shiplap detailing to create a sense of cohesion. Beyond looks, the mudroom was designed to be highly functional—a stylish yet practical drop zone for daily essentials.

This active, forward-thinking couple bought a new house in order to “right-size” for the next chapter in their lives. They found a ranch home in a neighborhood they liked, but the floor plan needed a remodel in order to fit their lifestyle.
Two small bedrooms were combined in order to make one large master. The existing living room and garage were combined to make one large living space. The floor of the garage was raised to be on an equal plane to the existing living room. Hardwood was added to match the existing flooring and then all was refinished for a fresh look.
A large ViWinco Bay Window was added where the garage door once was, and a Velux Solar Skylight was installed to add to the natural sunlight coming from the bay. Custom built-ins lined the furthest wall for storage and closet space. Sliding doors were installed as an entrance and exit to the back of the existing house.
A new extended length garage was added for the owner’s vehicles with spare room for the homeowners brewing experiments. Azek window and door trim surrounded the newly installed ViWinco windows along with Cedar Siding mimicking the house. Liftmaster Garage Doors were installed with dual controls for the car and a spare for safety and easy entry.
Hangout for Grandchildren
These two people are much too busy with their jobs and their many hobbies, from beer brewing, to gardening, and everything in between. But they needed a place where grandchildren could hang out and watch a movie when they came to visit. A part of their basement was finished into a perfect space with a lot of storage for games, books, movies and any other toys or crafts that may need to be stored for frequent visits. Custom bookshelves lined two walls and one was designed for the television and all its components. The area was carpeted and a hall was created with tile to another storage cabinet for linens. A nice basement bathroom was created opposite to the laundry area.
Basement Bathroom Remodel
A Sterling Accord, 60” Seated Shower was installed in the bathroom with a Moen 4-functioning massaging hand shower with slide bar for the shower feature. A Wellborn select vanity was selected with upgraded solid wood, dovetail drawers. Moen’s hardware on the cabinets compliments the brushed nickel plumbing fixtures in Moen’s Voss Series.
The Highline Kohler comfort height toilet, along with the Grip-tight Cachet seat added to the practicality, along with the beauty of this basement bath. A Verdera Kohler mirrored cabinet was installed, giving this homeowner more storage for all those bathroom essentials.
Kohler was also installed in this remodel, as the Caxton sink is a bathroom favorite among many of our clients.
The Caesar stone countertop in Urban Safari, along with the 12” X 12” Castelbianco Nasino Ivory tile flooring, softens the look and brings it all together. This wonderful couple can now concentrate on their gardening and savoring the long days of summer.

For this beautiful single-family home in Weston, we completed a stunning wood flooring installation using around 2,500 square feet of Hallmark Regatta Halyard Oak throughout the entire house.

Unlike traditional options, this real wood can be clicked together and installed directly over existing flooring, avoiding demolition and dust. From the kitchen to the bedrooms, bathrooms to the living room, this specific Hallmark Regatta Halyard Oak not only provides exceptional aesthetics but also offers the practical benefit of waterproof support, ensuring the floor's longevity.

We are proud to share with you an exciting cabinet project in Bellevue that involved both the kitchen and bathroom. The client desired a European style with sleek, modern aesthetics, and we were thrilled to bring their vision to life.
In the kitchen, we installed stunning flat-panel cabinets that exude a contemporary charm. The upper cabinets reached all the way to the ceiling, optimizing storage space and providing a seamless, polished look. These upper cabinets not only offer ample storage but also add a touch of elegance to the entire kitchen.
To further enhance functionality, we incorporated wide drawers into the design. These spacious drawers make organizing and accessing kitchen essentials a breeze. They provide a convenient and stylish solution for storing utensils, cookware, and other items.
For the finishes, we employed a combination of light and dark tones to create a striking contrast. The light finishes brought an airy and open feel to the space, while the dark finishes added depth and sophistication. This harmonious interplay of colors created a visually appealing and modern atmosphere in the kitchen.
In the bathroom, we continued the European influence with floating cabinets. These cabinets, devoid of visible legs or support, create a sleek and minimalist look while maximizing floor space. The floating design also makes cleaning a breeze, as there are no obstacles or obstructions to maneuver around.
The end result was a beautiful and functional space that seamlessly blended modern aesthetics with practicality.#europeanstylecabinets #modernkitchen #floatingvanity #flatdesign #seattlecabinets #moderndesigns

Before: Your bathroom is a practical space, outfitted with the basics. The walls are plain and unremarkable, while your shower essentials rest in a caddy hanging from the shower head or clutter the edges of your bathtub. Seating in the shower is non-existent, making the entire showering process a chore, especially for the elderly or those with mobility challenges. The overall design is simple, lacking a personalized touch or any element of sophistication.
After: Your bathroom has been transformed into a luxurious retreat, thanks to HPA's Tyvarian® wall surrounds. These panels, designed to emulate marble, granite, and travertine, lend a high-end feel to the space. Each handcrafted panel from Utah boasts a realistic texture due to the high-definition images incorporated into the design. The shower area is no longer cluttered, with built-in shampoo shelves providing a handy and attractive storage solution. A comfortable shower seat has been added, bringing convenience and ease to every shower. The bathroom's aesthetic is now tied together with tailored Pencil or Mini Pencil Trim options, adding to its sophistication and personal style.

As we start to notice the vibrant colors of spring beginning to peek through last week’s snowstorm, it’s the perfect time to unveil one of our recent primary bath renovations. Led by Project Manager, Steve Shanholtz, and Designers, Justina Auer and Sarah Domery, this project was a collaborative effort from start to finish. Our clients came to us with their flooring tile already selected, serving as the catalyst for our creative vision. It’s hard to find the centerpiece of this space, as so many aspects of the room elicit a “Wow!” reaction. With a palette of lush greens and crisp whites, this renovation is a testament to the beauty of renewal and rejuvenation. The Cambria Clifton countertop seamlessly carries the essence of green throughout the space with tiny pops of a bold black hardware adding to the sophistication of this modern bath – a striking choice against the pristine white cabinetry. Practicality meets elegance in the shower with the use of Onyx walls, chosen for their easy maintenance without compromising on style. A thoughtful rearrangement of the sink allowed for the addition of a linen cabinet, providing ample storage for towels and bath essentials. We are so proud of the impeccable work by our guys in the field, especially our lead carpenter on this project, Brian Halme. As we usher in the season of renewal, there’s no better time to breathe new life into your home. Give us a call so we can transform your space into a sanctuary of style and comfort!
