This is a baby girl nursery completed in June 2021. The crib and recliner has to be repurposed from their previous baby boy nursery so pink and cream were added for a feminine touch and a touch of gold for a bit of glam. Clients wanted some greenery or something slightly tropical but as busy professionals were concerned about keeping real plants alive so a faux palm was added and these beautiful boho tropical palm leaves were artfully designed throughout the room to add that tropical boho vibe and add a bit of life to the space. The green boho leaf crib sheets also tied in the look into sleeping space. The palm leaf decals tied together the colors in the light grey recliner and the taupe wood crib for a cohesive look. Dresser was repurposed from a yellow-ish varnished wood and painted white and old Dresser hardware was swapped with new brushed brass knobs to finish the look. The entire room was completed for under $1500.

Birch hardwood flooring shares the qualities of other North American wood such as oak and maple but has special characteristics that make it an excellent choice for flooring in the home. Birch has a Janka rating close to that of red oak - allowing for a great alternative to the standard, and the color variation from light to dark with natural highlights is likely to appeal to many decorators and home owners.

This 1933 Wauwatosa basement was dark, dingy and lacked functionality. The basement was unfinished with concrete walls and floors. A small office was enclosed but the rest of the space was open and cluttered. The homeowners wanted a warm, organized space for their family. A recent job change meant they needed a dedicated home office. They also wanted a place where their kids could hang out with friends. Their wish list for this basement remodel included: a home office where the couple could both work, a full bathroom, a cozy living room and a dedicated storage room. This basement renovation resulted in a warm and bright space that is used by the whole family. Highlights of this basement: - Home Office: A new office gives the couple a dedicated space for work. There’s plenty of desk space, storage cabinets, under-shelf lighting and storage for their home library. - Living Room: An old office area was expanded into a cozy living room. It’s the perfect place for their kids to hang out when they host friends and family. - Laundry Room: The new laundry room is a total upgrade. It now includes fun laminate flooring, storage cabinets and counter space for folding laundry. - Full Bathroom: A new bathroom gives the family an additional shower in the home. Highlights of the bathroom include a navy vanity, quartz counters, brass finishes, a Dreamline shower door and Kohler Choreograph wall panels. - Staircase: We spruced up the staircase leading down to the lower level with patterned vinyl flooring and a matching trim color. - Storage: We gave them a separate storage space, with custom shelving for organizing their camping gear, sports equipment and holiday decorations. CUSTOMER REVIEW “We had been talking about remodeling our basement for a long time, but decided to make it happen when my husband was offered a job working remotely. It felt like the right time for us to have a real home office where we could separate our work lives from our home lives. We wanted the area to feel open, light-filled, and modern – not an easy task for a previously dark and cold basement! One of our favorite parts was when our designer took us on a 3D computer design tour of our basement. I remember thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, this could be our basement!?!’ It was so fun to see how our designer was able to take our wish list and ideas from my Pinterest board, and turn it into a practical design. We were sold after seeing the design, and were pleasantly surprised to see that Kowalske was less costly than another estimate.” – Stephanie, homeowner

This basement staircase received a warm, rustic touch thanks to our distressed wood planks in the color Brown-Ish. These real, distressed wood planks are made from new, sustainably sourced wood and are easily affixed to any wall or surface. The curved wall was no problem for these panels! Our distressed wood planks were also used on the wall in their wine room behind their hanging wine racks.
