Driveways by Design is proud to showcase our latest, exclusive sealer with our signature, designer concrete driveway. This sealer creates a water resistant skin on top of the concrete, which prevents moisture from entering the slabs without altering the color. This prevents mildew and mold from growing while also protecting the concrete from the most common stains, while using the rain to wash itself.

White Shaker cabinets with molding on top. Granite counter tops, soft close mechanisms on all cabinets to prevent slamming, and pre-finished cabinet doors with a UV baked on coat of paint to resist chipping/blemishes. Special features of this kitchen are a wine rack, trash pullout cabinet, microwave base cabinet, and roll out drawers in the base cabinets for easy reaching.

Here you can see the beautiful patina that Natural Lime Plasters develop when treated with washes of natural pigment. This is true "fresco" technique because the color is applied when the lime plaster base is still fresh. Unlike a faux finish, which is generally applied with acrylic medium, these walls are completely natural and therefore will continue to age beautifully.

The entry of this beautiful Tuscan style home high in the hills of Malibu is particularly stunning in an earthy, mediterranean way. The client wanted to create "age" without resorting to faux finishing techniques. Multiple layers of natural pigments and water were applied when the base coat of lime plaster was still fresh.

2013 PROFESSIONAL REMODELER, SILVER AWARD WINNER, RESIDENTIAL KITCHEN
Located in the new Trump International Golf Course Community, this contemporary home has a great location overlooking the golf course. The current layout, however, prevented the owners from taking advantage of its breathtaking view.
Goals of the remodel were to open up the first floor layout by taking down the partition walls between the kitchen and dining room. The homeowner also wanted to update the home’s galley kitchen, replacing its dark cabinets and counters.
Once the walls were removed, major obstacles because they were load bearing, the new design could evolve. The ten foot ceilings provided the opportunity to stack up decorative glass cabinetry and highly crafted crown moldings on top, while maintaining a considerable amount of cabinetry right below it. The custom made brush stroke finished cabinetry with bells and whistles such as corbels and chimney style wood hood surrounded with leaded glass cabinetry. Pillars were all part of detailed craftsmanship of this project.
A large 5’ x 14’ island is the focal point of the design. The island consists of main sink with a pedal style control disposal, dishwasher, microwave, second bar sink, beverage center refrigerator and still has room to sit five to six people. Its darker cabinetry provides a beautiful contrast to the opaque white cabinets on the surrounding walls.
White marble counters and backsplash brighten up the kitchen and two crystal chandeliers create a timeless yet elegant feel. High-end Thermador appliances covered in custom inset panels are part of this featured project to implement the classic look the homeowner wanted for this kitchen. Finally, a featured cabinet arch with leaded glass separates the kitchen from the dining room and displays the homeowner’s fine china.
Finally, large windows and French doors offer beautiful golf course views from multiple vantage points.

Want to have the capability of drying your sweaters on a flat surface but don't have space for a traditional folding drying rack? Install one behind a drawer front. If using for drying short or flat items, it may be placed at any height. If you will be hanging longer items from it, put it in a top drawer. Remember that this drawer may need to be left open for hours. If you plan to close it while in use, be sure there is ventilation inside the cabinet to prevent mold, mildew, or water damage to the cabinet.
