This dramatic contemporary residence features extraordinary design with magnificent views of Angel Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the ever changing San Francisco Bay. The amazing great room has soaring 36 foot ceilings, a Carnelian granite cascading waterfall flanked by stairways on each side, and an unique patterned sky roof of redwood and cedar. The 57 foyer windows and glass double doors are specifically designed to frame the world class views. Designed by world-renowned architect Angela Danadjieva as her personal residence, this unique architectural masterpiece features intricate woodwork and innovative environmental construction standards offering an ecological sanctuary with the natural granite flooring and planters and a 10 ft. indoor waterfall. The fluctuating light filtering through the sculptured redwood ceilings creates a reflective and varying ambiance. Other features include a reinforced concrete structure, multi-layered slate roof, a natural garden with granite and stone patio leading to a lawn overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Completing the home is a spacious master suite with a granite bath, an office / second bedroom featuring a granite bath, a third guest bedroom suite and a den / 4th bedroom with bath. Other features include an electronic controlled gate with a stone driveway to the two car garage and a dumb waiter from the garage to the granite kitchen.

The exterior at Tranquil Timber Lodge by Fox Construction in Steamboat Springs features rounded log walls, steep intersecting gabled roofs, and a timber-framed covered entry. Stone accents at the foundation and entry columns add weight and texture, while arched wood-trimmed windows reinforce the rustic lodge design.

A gem tucked away in San Francisco’s Sea Cliff neighborhood, walking into this house is like walking on to the set of a magazine shoot. This comes as no surprise considering the design duo Cook Construction worked with to bring this home to life. Our biggest challenge by far was engineering the impressive centerpiece of the kitchen; a custom-built, solid stone island with a floating cantilever slab. In order to create this effect, an internal welded steel frame was designed to reinforce the floating slab and create a free-standing illusion.

This renovation carefully reinterprets a 1920s Tudor home, balancing preservation with meaningful expansion. New additions and dormers are composed as if original to the house, using matching brickwork, slate-toned roofing, and traditionally proportioned gables to maintain architectural continuity. Subtle half-timbering, thoughtfully detailed masonry arches, and deeply set windows reinforce the Tudor vocabulary while allowing for significantly improved interior volume and natural light. On the rear elevation, the architecture opens to the landscape with a restrained, contemporary deck and generous glazing, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor connection without competing with the historic character. The result is a cohesive composition that feels timeless—one that respects the home’s origins while quietly elevating it for modern living.

Whole house remodel, including new flooring throughout, brand new kitchen and appliances, removed walls and reinforced ceiling, installed reading nook in a bay window area, installed new staircase railing, whole home interior paint, new upstairs guest bath remodel, Master bedroom and bathroom renovation: reshaped room, added a large walk-in closet and brand new master bathroom.

This grand great room highlights a dramatic coffered ceiling, polished marble floors, and a carved stone fireplace that anchors the space with timeless elegance. Arched openings, a statement chandelier, and expansive sliding glass doors give the room a bright, open feel while reinforcing its refined Mediterranean character.

The design of the home is inspired by the very best examples of local Spanish Colonial design as seen in the famed Palmcroft and Encanto neighborhoods in Phoenix through its carefully composed massing, fenestration, and detailing. The entry arch, door awnings, plaster grille, wrought iron details and corner chimney mass are all highly evocative of the period, and along with the use of authentic three-coat stucco over metal lath, reinforces the strong sense of authenticity which emanates from the home.

Our client wanted to keep a classic porch look that was in line with what they currently had while gaining the advantage of low maintenance products. We removed all the existing rails, posts and flooring then reinforced the floor frame. We used Azek slate grey porch flooring and the color worked great with the home and walkway. Next wrapping the structural post, we fabricated on site new custom posts using Azek trim. As part of the trim package we replaced the soffit with a beaded style (classic porch detail) and built up the girder supporting to roof before applying the trim. Finally we installed Azek premier rail and this porch was done and ready for rocking.

Mangrove Vanity and Sink – Bending branches join together in a truly organic freestanding form. Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), offers superior strength and a polished finish, for a lifetime of use. All sinks are designed and made specifically to clients’ requirements.

Innovative waste bins ELLETIPI, equipped with a patented mechanism for the automatic opening of the lids when opening the cabinet door. The lid opens and the bin is extracted when you open the cabinet door; the lid also closes automatically when the bin returns in the cabinet when you close the door, guaranteeing odor protection. This object is made of polymers, and the fitting and attachment components are filled and reinforced. This system was designed to be installed on the side of the cabinet and connected to the door (not compulsory). Its main objective is to be used internally in kitchen base cabinets, under the sink. Its installation is practical and rapid, thanks to the instructions that can be used as a drilling guide and the supplied 12 self-tapping screws.
