Kitchen - transitional kitchen idea in San Francisco

Our clients wanted to replace an existing suburban home with a modern house at the same Lexington address where they had lived for years. The structure the clients envisioned would complement their lives and integrate the interior of the home with the natural environment of their generous property. The sleek, angular home is still a respectful neighbor, especially in the evening, when warm light emanates from the expansive transparencies used to open the house to its surroundings. The home re-envisions the suburban neighborhood in which it stands, balancing relationship to the neighborhood with an updated aesthetic. The floor plan is arranged in a “T” shape which includes a two-story wing consisting of individual studies and bedrooms and a single-story common area. The two-story section is arranged with great fluidity between interior and exterior spaces and features generous exterior balconies. A staircase beautifully encased in glass stands as the linchpin between the two areas. The spacious, single-story common area extends from the stairwell and includes a living room and kitchen. A recessed wooden ceiling defines the living room area within the open plan space. Separating common from private spaces has served our clients well. As luck would have it, construction on the house was just finishing up as we entered the Covid lockdown of 2020. Since the studies in the two-story wing were physically and acoustically separate, zoom calls for work could carry on uninterrupted while life happened in the kitchen and living room spaces. The expansive panes of glass, outdoor balconies, and a broad deck along the living room provided our clients with a structured sense of continuity in their lives without compromising their commitment to aesthetically smart and beautiful design.

These courtyard duplexes stretch vertically with public spaces on the main level, private spaces on the second, and a third-story perch for reading & dreaming accessed by a spiral staircase. They also live larger by opening the entire kitchen / dining wall to an expansive deck and private courtyard. Embedded in an eclectically modern New Urbanist neighborhood, the exterior features bright colors and a patchwork of complimentary materials. Photos: Maggie Flickinger

Crema Marfil Tile and the Waterjet Mosaic Multi-Purpose Beige Tile The world keeps getting sophisticated and it’s hard to go by without noticing. And can we be amazed that this sophistication keeps creeping and has finally reach the house of the most moderately life-styled persons; even in their kitchens. I case you don’t know what I’m driving at, it may be better if I break the good news to you about the crema marfil brand of tiles. The first time I saw one, I was completely in awe. Much as tried, trust me, I could not differentiate the tile from natural marble; so clean and smoothly polished, tumbled finishes and they were such a delight to watch. I finally chose to fall in love with one though; the Basket weave crema marfil tile. You could call it moderate but I would peg that at a higher standard. This finely polished surfaces of carefully interwoven model of nature were a comfort to touch and will pass as one of the best that I have ever reviewed in my years of experience with tiles and ceramics. The Basket weave crema marfil tiles, you should know how it looks like from its name, will definitely be good for very natural settings including the floor for the summer hut on your lawn or the edges of your swimming pools and your kitchen floors and the list goes on. So this beautiful masterpiece has great prospects indeed and could prove to be extremely convenient for any commercial or residential architecture. Of course this brand of tile could very well fit any purpose but the Basket weave model is preferred as a floor tile, considering its aesthetic quality and easy to clean nature. This natural stone or “gem” comes in various ranges and sizes. Most of the customers I interviewed about the crema marfil marble tiles were particularly excited about my personal favourite the Basket weave crema marfil tiles but others were equally excited about the Crema Marfil Marble Basket Mosaic Tileand the Crema Marfil hexagon mosaics and few others also liked the Crema Marfil herringbone mosaic and the Dark emperador marble. So if you are yet to make the hard decision of choosing a range of tiles for one of your building project, well, there’s one that I can vouch for. The crema marfil brand of tiles. They come in many colors so just be ready to have a hard time making the difficult decision to choose. Remember to try the basket weave but if you don’t, any other crema marfil tile variation is a good choice well made. http://AllMarbleTiles.com
