This Lenexa, Kansas primary bathroom remodel was designed to create a brighter, more open space while improving everyday functionality and long-term accessibility. The existing oversized jacuzzi tub was removed to expand the shower footprint, allowing for a spacious zero-entry shower and a more efficient layout tailored to the homeowners' needs.
Thoughtful accessibility features, including heated floors, grab bars, and a curbless shower design, were seamlessly integrated into the space without compromising style. Warm wood cabinetry, marble and travertine tile, brass plumbing fixtures, and a custom makeup vanity with an LED wall mirror add warmth and sophistication throughout.
A frameless glass shower enclosure enhances the open feel of the room, allowing natural light and carefully selected finishes to shine. The result is a timeless primary bathroom that balances luxury, comfort, and accessibility while supporting the homeowners' lifestyle for years to come.

Luxurious, extra deep leather sofas adorned with custom mail sack pillows make a cozy space to take in breathtaking Catskill views, or the flames from the wood burning fireplace. Local walnut custom coffee table. Staged for long term rental.

The Roger Lee designed house from 1962 was purchased by the current homeowners in almost original condition, as the previous owners elected to defer most maintenance projects over the years. The clients were able to see beyond the dated materials and finishes, single-paned glass and uninsulated walls and they approached Klopf Architecture to help them expand and update the entire home, one the family could settle into and enjoy for years to come. It was important that the new designs were aligned with Lee's original intent not only because of the client's appreciation for mid-century modern architecture, but also because the house was deemed historical. The Stanford Real Estate Office requires a stringent design review which safeguards the integrity of the community, which Klopf Architecture was happy to oblige going into their updated designs.
As with many original mid-century modern homes, the house was scaled to the 1960s lifestyle where rooms were smaller and openings to views were limited and tightly framed. The original conditions defined the direction the family of four would take in updating the house and making it comfortable for their modern lifestyle. Klopf designed a full gut remodel and major addition to bring the house into the 21st century and provide the living area needed for the client's family. The newly expanded house added just about 1,100 sf to create an airy, comfortable and family friendly house, taking full advantage of the beautiful southwestern views that extend out to the hills beyond. The enclosed garage created an additional 240 sf of covered space for long-term storage.
A cracked swimming pool created an eyesore taking up a majority of the backyard landscape, so it was one of the first elements to go during the transformation. Working with Outer Space Landscape Architects, the family asked for a mix of relaxing outdoor patio spaces that eventually blend into the native landscaping, extending their views outward toward the natural greenery of the trees beyond their property. Filling in the old pool was a smart way to expand the living spaces outward. The orientation of the house was designed to enjoy the views, but the original architecture provided the first homeowners with mere glimpses of the landscape outside.
Klopf was able to broaden those views, continuing and extending on the original architecture to take full advantage of the unobstructed natural views across the rear facade of the house. Small horizontal openings in the primary bedroom and office were replaced with much taller windows that now follow the angled roof line upward, extending across almost all of the facade. We worked with Western Windows, whose designs included an oblique-shaped, operable casement that allowed our design to rise with the slope. A new corner office added to the primary suite, offers a bright and functional work-from-home solution that looks out at the distant views and added natural light from the expanded window configuration that now wraps around the corner.
The existing lower level was designed by Lee as a utilitarian space, serving as a wet pool room with a drain in the center of the floor, bathroom, laundry and storage areas. Without the need for a pool room, Klopf was able to convert the area into a much more comfortable and functional living space with a new family room and guest suite. The new spaces enjoy easy access to a new outdoor patio through floor to ceiling, full-width glass sliders.
Continuing along the rear facade, a previously exposed deck extending from the living room and hallway provided access to the backyard through a single set of stairs leading toward the side of the house which made sense when the pool was in place. The new deck was re-envisioned as an extension of the main living room and now serves as a second outdoor living room. A new slatted pergola above provides the homeowners welcome relief from the hot afternoon sun. A second set of stairs now creates a better connection to the redesigned lower level. Klopf was able to reconfigure the spaces, extending the living room outward toward the views, where the family now claims it as the heart of the home, spending a large majority of their time outdoors.
Back inside, the original wood-burning Malm fireplace was beautifully restored and a gas burner installed to comply with California's strict air standards. It now rests in front of a wall of Heath accent tiles where a dated red brick wall used to stand. A new taller window brings more light and views into the refreshed interior living room. The original glass doors opposite the fireplace were replaced by larger sliders that when fully opened, create a seamless transition to the new outdoor living area so the two spaces feel like one connected space. The original utilitarian kitchen was needlessly tucked into the far back corner and closed-off, out of sight from the living room, so the clients asked Klopf to open it up and expand the kitchen forward so it felt more connected. Today the much larger kitchen is connected to the living area where a short wall with a cutout offers a visual glimpse into the kitchen and a handy pass-through counter for serving guests. A new breakfast nook was also added to create another spot where the family can gather for casual meals. Just outside, a new built-in outdoor grill and prep area extends the kitchen outside and connects to a new outdoor dining spot nestled amongst the trees, taking advantage of the views out back.
Klopf was able to expand the other two bedrooms, add a new laundry room and half-bath and convert the carport to an enclosed garage to add more storage areas which was lost when the pool house was converted to the family and guest room.
To maintain a historical connection to the original designs, the exterior siding was repeated on all exterior walls, a full-height stained glass window at the front entryway restored, and an interior slatted screen element repeated outside at the exterior entry courtyard and over the new outdoor living room to create a shade trellis. The new house stands proudly and shines against it's new landscaping features, while respecting and expanding on the original intent of Roger Lee's designs epitomizing the comforts of indoor-outdoor living in Northern California.

The recent restoration of Giant View was guided by a singular principle: preserve and strengthen the spirit, craftsmanship, and mountain character of the original camp for future generations. The renovation was approached as an act of stewardship.
We invested extensively in professional arboricultural care to protect the long-term health of the immediate forest. A new engineered septic system was carefully designed to work with the site's natural topography and setting. Existing retaining structures were stabilized using approaches intended to preserve the natural appearance of the setting. Exterior lighting was designed to be fully Dark Sky compliant.

Tile floors are becoming increasingly popular in London's bathrooms due to their durability and aesthetic appeal. The tiles come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colours, so you can easily find one that suits your style. Tile floors are easy to clean, and they are resistant to moisture and mildew, making them an ideal choice for the humid climate of London. They also provide a safe, non-slip surface, making them ideal for families with young children. Tile floors can last for many years with proper care and maintenance, so they are an excellent choice for long-term use.

This primary bathroom remodel marks the first transformation in a home our clients purchased ten years ago. With plans to renovate every level over time, this space sets the tone for the style and functionality they envision throughout the rest of their home.
The original layout included a tub that was never used, so we removed it to better utilize the square footage. By relocating the shower and reworking the overall layout, we created a more open, efficient design tailored to their daily routines. Updated finishes and a refreshed color palette establish a cohesive look that finally feels personal and reflective of their taste.
This bathroom renovation is just the beginning, and we are excited to help bring their long term vision to life, one space at a time.

Problem: After we solved this client’s first problem of adding new doors and trim, he decided he wanted do renovate his lower level walkout family room to accommodate his pool table.
Solution: Our designer suggested removing the existing fake brick wall to open up the space. We added new carpet and updated the look with fresh paint and new colors. By using the customer’s existing furniture and wall art (some rescued from long term storage), we created this great pool room. There’s plenty of space for entertaining, playing pool, games or watching the game on TV.
