MainStreet Design BuildA rare find in Bloomfield Township is new construction. This gem of a custom home not only featured a modern, open floorplan with great flow, it also had an 1,800 sq. ft. unfinished basement. When the homeowners of this beautiful house approached MainStreet Design Build, they understood the value of renovating the accessible, non-livable space—and recognized its unlimited potential.
Their vision for their 1,800 sq. ft. finished basement included a lighter, brighter teen entertainment area—a space large enough for pool, ping pong, shuffle board and darts. It was also important to create an area for food and drink that did not look or feel like a bar. Although the basement was completely unfinished, it presented design challenges due to the angled location of the stairwell and existing plumbing. After 4 months of construction, MainStreet Design Build delivered—in spades!
Details of this project include a beautiful modern fireplace wall with Peau de Beton concrete paneled tile surround and an oversized limestone mantel and hearth. Clearly a statement piece, this wall also features a Boulevard 60-inch Contemporary Vent-Free Linear Fireplace with reflective glass liner and crushed glass.
Opposite the fireplace wall, is a beautiful custom room divider with bar stool seating that separates the living room space from the gaming area. Effectively blending this room in an open floorplan, MainStreet Design Build used Country Oak Wood Plank Vinyl flooring and painted the walls in a Benjamin Moore eggshell finish.
The Kitchenette was designed using Dynasty semi-custom cabinetry, specifically a Renner door style with a Battleship Opaque finish; Top Knobs hardware in a brushed satin nickel finish; and beautiful Caesarstone Symphony Grey Quartz countertops. Tastefully coordinated with the rest of the décor is a modern Filament Chandelier in a bronze finish from Restoration Hardware, hung perfectly above the kitchenette table.
A new ½ bath was tucked near the stairwell and designed using the same custom cabinetry and countertops as the kitchenette. It was finished in bold blue/gray paint and topped with Symphony Gray Caesarstone. Beautiful 3×12” Elemental Ice glass subway tile and stainless steel wall shelves adorn the back wall creating the illusion of light. Chrome Shades of Light Double Bullet glass wall sconces project from the wall to shed light on the mirror.

Geremia DesignI loved the opportunity to collaborate with artist and designer friends on this project. Together, we created one-of-a-kind pieces that were were perfect for a Noe Valley flat, including a custom chandelier, sofa, dining table, outdoor furniture, and a floating DJ table.

This home was built by Christopher Homes in their super custom division in Las Vegas. It turned out, this home was their "gem" of that division. They sent the best of their best building specialists, Chris Baker, to oversee from ground up to completion. Chris became our dear friend; his walk-throughs were frequent. As a specialist in his field, he'd been building since the 1960's. When asked what was his favorite project, he replied, "This one".
One day, when we were just completing this hallway all the way at the other end; Chris dropped in. I saw his large football-player frame step into the front gallery and pause to look around. He just stood looking around and started to slump a bit; shoulders deflating. His long approach towards us was slow as he looked at every inch of the newly faux finished walls. His body appeared to become smaller as he got closer. When he finally stood in front of me, he looked so sad. "I was so proud of this house, until I see now that I merely built a shell. You just brought it to life." Chris brought a friend of his by 4 times that week; another builder. When I asked Chris later why this man kept stopping in, he replied, "Brian doesn't get to see this kind of craftsmanship very often. It's rare. He came to see your work". Brian was currently building Steve Wynn's brother's 20,0000 sq ft house across town. I had no idea he was making those trips exclusively to view our walls. What an honor.
We were just doing what we love to do. This was one of my favorites too.

Metal Roof NetworkA rare and spectacular early 20th century residential hillside estate in Honolulu was in need of a new roof and the owner wanted to make the roof as distinctive and special and problem-free as possible.
Weight on the old structure was a major consideration due to the age of the building, as was resistance to the persistent mold that grows readily on building exteriors in this very warm, humid environment. A vented copper tile roof solved all of the problems at once, while adding a crowning touch of elegance and old-world charm that no other roof could match. It's a gem and will only get more beautiful with each passing year and decade.

Rande Leaman Interior DesignReupholstering the sofa, chairs and bench gave this contemporary living room added warmth and texture. Interesting textures are found in the petrified wood side and chrome side table, shagreen coffee table and custom pillows. We incorporated the clients collection of rare gems and crystals throughout the space. The custom wood and chrome shelves highlights some of the collection.
