This Midcentury Modern Home was originally built in 1964 and was completely over-hauled and a seriously major renovation! We transformed 5 rooms into 1 great room and raised the ceiling by removing all the attic space. Initially, we wanted to keep the original terrazzo flooring throughout the house, but unfortunately we could not bring it back to life. This house is a 3200 sq. foot one story. We are still renovating, since this is my house...I will keep the pictures updated as we progress!

Michael Crockett A small thatched country cottage. The client wanted to light the area at the back where they drove in. Primarily, we lit where the gates open linking it to the electronic gates. The features of the garden were picked up with lighting and backlight the raised bed. Layers were created with lighting.

Let us make your dream home a reality. This happy client chose a peninsula fireplace with a slate raised hearth and a floor to ceiling stone finish. Simple columns serve as visual divider without closing in this space. Visit our web site to see more of our beautiful projects. www.renehanbuildinggroup.com

The needs of an active young family were central in transforming a tired Colonial Revival into a captivating summer home. The first floor was lowered to open up a cramped interior and the glazing was greatly expanded to bring the dramatic seascape into their daily lives. The addition's folded copper roof becomes structural origami as it sweeps up and out towards the sea. Photo by: Peter Vanderwarker Photography

Living room - traditional living room idea in Wilmington

For a couple of young web developers buying their first home in Redwood Shores, we were hired to do a complete interior remodel of a cookie cutter house originally built in 1996. The original finishes looked more like the 80s than the 90s, consisting of raised-panel oak cabinets, 12 x 12 yellow-beige floor tiles, tile counters and brown-beige wall to wall carpeting. The kitchen and bathrooms were utterly basic and the doors, fireplace and TV niche were also very dated. We selected all new finishes in tones of gray and silver per our clients’ tastes and created new layouts for the kitchen and bathrooms. We also designed a custom accent wall for their TV (very important for gamers) and track-mounted sliding 3-Form resin doors to separate their living room from their office. To animate the two story living space we customized a Mizu pendant light by Terzani and in the kitchen we selected an accent wall of seamless Caesarstone, Fuscia lights designed by Achille Castiglioni (one of our favorite modernist pendants) and designed a two-level island and a drop-down ceiling accent “cloud: to coordinate with the color of the accent wall. The master bath features a minimalist bathtub and floating vanity, an internally lit Electric Mirror and Porcelanosa tile.
