Large kitchen with an abundance of storage provides looks and functionality. The range area is organized and provides easy access to plating, utensils, pots, pans, and spices.

Whole-house remodel of a hillside home in Seattle. The historically-significant ballroom was repurposed as a family/music room, and the once-small kitchen and adjacent spaces were combined to create an open area for cooking and gathering. A compact master bath was reconfigured to maximize the use of space, and a new main floor powder room provides knee space for accessibility. Built-in cabinets provide much-needed coat & shoe storage close to the front door. ©Kathryn Barnard, 2014

5,400 s.f. house with a large 3 car attached garage.The first floor will include: a dining room; office; mudroom (with stackable laundry) and kitchen with a pantry and adjacent breakfast room and great room.

Bring your collection to life with a beautiful window display. It offers a fantastic way to showcase a prized collection from the outside of your cellar, while providing some mystery as to what lays inside. Bottles are easily accessed from inside the cellar using a tiered angle display which provides ample room at the top for lighting. The display measures at about 4ft high by 6ft wide, holds around 160 bottles and can be customized to suit your needs.

Entryway - traditional entryway idea in Kansas City

The newly renovated home has a Brazilian Ipe hardwood deck with tempered glass railings that comply with Toronto’s 4-sided fence requirement and afford a clear view of the yard and pool. The custom stainless steel stairs with Ipe hardwood steps provide a stylish and durable way to access the backyard.

The homeowners built their barn to be more than a simple outbuilding. In addition to storing vehicles and equipment, it's decked out with space for having fun and entertaining. The landscape continues the party, providing additional gathering space while maintaining access for trailers and other large vehicles.

A second laundry area was added during an attic renovation project that included a bedroom, full bath and closet. The challenge in the laundry room was to make a small, narrow, windowless space highly functional with a full size washer and dryer, light and bright and maximize storage. The solution was to center the washer/drawer between barn doors that open to the hallway to bedroom to provide easy and full access to appliances. An outlet was added in the cabinet to accommodate charging a small hand held vacuum. Around the corner, built in shelves with woven baskets neatly contain odds and ends, while a folding counter, drawers and rod, provide a concealed area for rolling hampers and a place to hang dry clothing. Accessories personalize and warm the space. The warmer white color scheme in this room and traditional barn doors needed to tie in with the rest of the home while providing a transition to a cleaner, whiter, teen boho-style bedroom, bath and closet.

Big and roomy was just the ticket for the two young women who live in this Atlanta bungalow. The kitchen was designed with their wheelchair-accessible needs and their favorite place has turned out to be right here at the custom-made walnut bar. Just the right height for breakfast for lunch or doing a little work on the computer. Sara Hanna Photography
