The previous award winning remodel of their Burr Ridge home brought these clients back to LaMantia and designers Jackie Prazak and Katie Suva, CKD, CBD when they decided it was time to build out their unfinished lower level. As before, their main objective was to create areas to accommodate their extended (and now grown) family.
During the 2013 main floor remodel, a bedroom and Powder Room had been given up to gain the large award winning kitchen, so recapturing those two spaces were high on the “list of desires.” Also on the list was the need for a pool table, a comfortable movie/TV space, lots of game storage and plenty of open area for grandchildren game playing.
The stairway into the lower level was the main challenge in this build-out; both the stair run and tread depth needed to be lengthened to perform to code. To create greater head room on the staircase the main beam was cut and a portion was relocated 18”. A second column at the end of the stair run was added to match the required structural column, allowing the last tread to wrap decoratively onto each side.
Throughout the design planning many details built-into the main level project were repeated to marry the main and lower levels together. The built-in cabinetry and the mirrored doors in the bedroom can also be found in the Guest Room on the main level. The mirrored element over the bed is actually an interior door glazed with mirrors and hung on its side. The parquet look tile flooring of the new bath is reminiscent of the main level wood parquet flooring while the carpenter built wainscoting also can be found in the main hall of the first floor.
The custom walnut stair spindles were fabricated from a photo the homeowner found and loved. In the Movie/TV area the theatre seats are fully powered to accept iPhones, iPads, Laptops, etc. Also note the large chalkboard scorekeeping area with seating for the game players. And, one very special detail can be found under the (now longer) staircase; a private room under the stairs was created with touch-lighting and bean bag chairs for anyone seeking a quiet space.

The goal of this project was to restore this beautiful Dundee home’s main bath to its traditional charm. It was remodeled and updated in the 70s to accommodate a growing family. The now empty nesters had a dream to recapture the homes traditional feel and enjoy all of today’s finishes and amenities. Reworking the space allowed us to remove a doorway and create the feeling of a larger space without changing the footprint of the room. Classic finishes were selected in the claw foot soaker tub, tumbled marble flooring, black granite countertops and the addition of wainscot pull this bathroom back to its original roots. The details throughout this gem; like those found the Carrera Marble framed mirror, chrome fixtures, the crystal chandelier, and crystal knobs add the sparkle to the space. Crisp whites and beautiful grays are the backdrop to the bathrooms fixtures and cabinets. The tub fixture is not only beautiful but functional as well. It allows the homeowner the spray handheld in a space that does not allow for a traditional shower. The water closet was given extra storage with a custom cabinet over the new comfort height stool. Pre-finished stock cabinets with counter tops kept the project in budget without compromising design or function.

This once charming bungalow was typical of many of the homes that were built in the Berkeley/Oakland neighborhoods that date back to the ‘20s and ‘30s—small rooms, limited counter space and closets.
We removed and replaced 85% of the foundation and did a complete seismic upgrade. Structural engineers on the project, Frameworks Engineering, designed the new foundation and the framing for the home’s 220 sq.ft. addition. We transformed the dated bungalow into an energy-efficient, bright, modern home that recaptured its previous architectural interest. Because the owner was going to flip the house, he could have minimized his construction costs with inexpensive solutions. Instead, he chose enhancements that truly added value and made this home attractive to today’s energy-conscious buyers. We installed insulation, LED lighting and dual-pane windows throughout the home. The owner also chose quality appliances, marble countertops and refinished the hardwood floors. The addition of 220 sq.ft. helped make this traditional Berkeley bungalow more attractive to potential buyers; it was quickly snatched off the market for a very good price.
