Alexandra Lauren Interior DesignPlayrooms are all about FUN! When we started this room was a family theatre room. With baby number three on the way, and two twins already on board, it was important for this family to have a space for the children to do what children do best…. PLAY!
Children prefer bright colors from an early age because their eyes are not fully developed yet. They perceive these colors better than fainter shades. Brighter colors and high contrasting colors stand out more in their field of vision; this is why we see so many primary brightly colored children’s toys. I wanted to set a stage where we didn’t feel like we constantly needed to clean up. We wanted to design a room that allowed you to live a realistic life over the design layer. I love how the children’s toys don’t clash with our playful rug. We customized large built ins underneath the windows seats to provide ample storage for large toys, and a space to sit and read.
We framed out an existing book case, and wired two adjustable one arm wall lamps above. The added shiplap to the back of the bookcase provided texture, dimension and interest to an ordinary bookcase. The Adjustable one arm wall lamps are available at www.AlexandraLauren.com and the Sputnick Ceiling fixture is from Wayfair.com. We framed the window with two natural woven sideboards in black for additional toy storage.
The Root Coffee table was one of my favorite features of this room. I loved bringing in a natural elements through woven doors on cabinets, a natural root coffee table, shiplap and floating natural wood shelving. I chose to do Benjamin Moore Simply White on the shiplap. It's a modern, bright, yet warm white, that absorbs and reflects beautifully on both wood and walls.
Outdoor Lighting Design by Preferred PropertiesThis is another combination landscaping and lighting result by our team at Preferred Properties. Lots of seasonal color and interest and supporting trees to blend in with the natural landscape surrounding the home and plot. It is always best to be resourceful enough to get light out in front of the home and sidelines otherwise the house lighting appears to be obviously important but linear in effect where the forward approach brings dimension to the space. The lower and brighter light levels also guide your direction of vision in the night. Lower levels of light out by the roadside planter and brighter light by the front door would guide your sense of approach to the front door. In difference to brighter levels of light in the surrounding landscape guides more awareness to the whole parcel in a much more dimensional point of view. Either way played out some light is better than none. Let us show you just how good your house looks at night. OutdoorLightingDesign.com

Dyer Studio Inc.Converted from an existing Tuff Shed garage, the Beech Haus ADU welcomes short stay guests in the heart of the bustling Williams Corridor neighborhood.
Natural light dominates this self-contained unit, with windows on all sides, yet maintains privacy from the primary unit. Double pocket doors between the Living and Bedroom areas offer spatial flexibility to accommodate a variety of guests and preferences. And the open vaulted ceiling makes the space feel airy and interconnected, with a playful nod to its origin as a truss-framed garage.
A play on the words Beach House, we approached this space as if it were a cottage on the coast. Durable and functional, with simplicity of form, this home away from home is cozied with curated treasures and accents. We like to personify it as a vacationer: breezy, lively, and carefree.
Outdoor Lighting Design by Preferred PropertiesA gem at the end of the culdesac deserving of good light. A beautiful home played out well at night. The home shows its fine detail even when lit at night. The Landscape phase in its entirety bringing trees planted in the front and side yard down along the driveway has yet to be implemented but the Outdoor Lighting design takes phase two already into consideration. That is the beauty of working with a Landscaping designer and Landscape Lighting specialist to complete the project as this new construction home begins to settle in.

Hamza RSwing sets are the most popular among families with young and energetic kids who play a lot. To keep the kids safe and secure many families prefer to install the swing sets in their homes so that kids don’t force their parents to go out to the playlands. There are many types of indoor and outdoor swing sets. You can choose the one that fits best with the age and energy of your kids. Installing a swing set is not difficult but it can be tricky and can take a lot of your time to assemble the one.
Outdoor Lighting Design by Preferred PropertiesThis Georgian Colonial anchoring the culdesac is just a beauty. It is so apparent that light defines space and more so enables us to see what we see. Strategic landscaping by our crew allowed tall slender trees to anchor the road presentation and support the landscape in the front yard. Ofcourse all the landscape design had great lighting right behind it as well. Various strategies such as cross lighting, front lighting, silhouetting, down lighting and low level lighting allowed accent lighting to shine it's thing on what I thought was some of the most interesting and striking Focal specimens in the Landscape. The levels of brightness play a dominant role in direction of the welcoming of the house to others as there are several options for entry and light brightness helps direct the guests to the door. As most homeowners drive into the garage to enter the home they don't think about the approach in the dark as much as we do. Outdoor lighting on the house and fixtures secured to the home have to be at times toned down or aligned with light intensity to match the landscape lighting. Finish pointing at night and night time photography which we do as part of our landscape lighting installation approach shows these details best.

Home ResourceThe Dining room table is the heart of every home: old and young. Family and friends all gather around the table to eat, play, have coffee and cake, do handicrafts, work or come together for festive occasions. As a family table, it is a place of enjoyment and relaxation. It also facilitates communication. Many important daily social interactions take place at dining room tables, across all cultures, regardless of what differences may exist. And that is why dining tables and their chairs deserve some special attention. How big should the table be? What material is preferred? What color? And what chairs match both one's taste and the table?

House of MerakiThis bathroom is harmonious blend of classic and contemporary design elements. The perfect combination of white and neutrals, marble, and organic textures creating a spa-like oasis that exudes timeless sophistication. The misty neutral wallpaper surrounds you to create the serene feeling our client was looking for. The focal point of the bathroom is a luxurious freestanding bathtub, under a statement multi-pendant chandelier draped to enhance the feeling of relaxation and luxury. The white and gray checkered marble floor stays traditional while the organic forms of the lighting and accents play up the organic look. A few carefully chosen decor pieces, such as potted plants or decorative trays, add a touch of greenery and elegance to the space.
BANDD DESIGNA contemporary bedroom we had the pleasure of designing, bringing to life a warm and charming interior that is timeless yet trendy enough to feel refreshing for years to come. We went with an understated gray hue as the overall backdrop color, which allowed us to play around with the textiles and furnishings.
The orange Persian area rug is the focal point, but artwork, houseplants, and a cleverly painted chair anchor down the contemporary feel. The result is a freshly designed bedroom that is warm, inviting, and playful.
