Awesome Norristown PA bi-level home remodel. We gutted the whole first level of this home down to the bare bones. We redesigned the space to an open floorplan. New structural framing, insulation, windows and doors, and all mechanicals were relocated and improved. Lighting! Lighting! Lighting! everywhere and it makes all the difference. Led lighting and smart switches were used for up lighting above cabinetry, task lighting under cabinetry, general room lighting, accent lighting under bar top, and all decorative fixtures as well. The kitchen was designed around a central island with elevated seating that is designed around the new structural columns required to open the whole area. Fabuwood cabinetry in Galaxy Horizon finish make up the perimeter cabinets accented by Galaxy Cobblestone finish used for the island cabinetry. Both cabinetry tones coordinate perfect with the new Luxury vinyl plank flooring in Uptown Chic Forever Friends. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, luxury vinyl is Awesome! It looks great its ultra durable and even water proof as well as less expensive than true hardwood. New stair treads, railings, and posts were installed stained to match by us; giving the steps new life. An accent wall of nickel gap boards was installed on the fireplace wall giving it some interest along with being a great clean look. The recessed niche behind the range, the dry stacked stone tile at the islands seating area, the new tile entry in a herringbone pattern just add to all the great details of this project. The New River White granite countertops are a show stopper as well; not only is it a beautiful stone the installation and seaming is excellent considering the pattern of the stone. I could go on forever we did so much. The clients were terrific and a pleasure to work with. I am glad we were able to be involved in making this dream come true.

The Cabinet Color Shift slightly warms the tone of the wood without covering the wood grain. Color shifts are generally performed to remove the yellowing look wood gets from aged oil based finishes. This is a great look for customers who want a little darker tone to their cabinets. This process is another great way to save homeowners the cost of traditional refinishing while warming-up the kitchen and giving it a great new look, especially when dealing with wear caused by sun-fading and humidity. At 1/3rd the cost of refacing and 1/5th the cost of replacement, you'll love the brilliant results and the cost savings. All of our processes use our Lightspeed Plus® refinishing process which cures instantly with a powerful U.V. light. Our process requires no sanding and all our solutions are virtually odorless – so there’s No Dust. No Mess. No Odor®. With Lightspeed, expect a beautifully refinished kitchen with little to no down time.

Example of a classic home design design in Seattle

The resident of this 1904 classic Montford home has owned it for more than 30 years. Behind the walls and under the floors of the kitchen and bathroom were a myriad problem areas that needed attention. Hanging new cabinets on walls and from ceilings that may have been plumb a hundred years ago is par for the course. Our project manager even fabricated a special switch plate from wood that was required for an awkward spot in the bathroom. LED can lights and hand-blown glass pendants brighten the kitchen. Intricate tile work and massive glass sliding shower doors bring the bathroom up to date.

The door opens to the left to reveal 4 drawers inside, above which is hanging storage that allows for up to 42.25"H of coats, shirts or other hanging clothing. Since this closet is freestanding furniture, it does not get attached to your walls and requires no kind of anchoring.

This project required a call of attention to the architectural details of the home as the main visual focal point. Additional lighting was added to the trees to visually anchor the home to the landscaping. All of the lights used are low voltage, LED lights.

Our inspiration for this home was an updated and refined approach to Frank Lloyd Wright’s “Prairie-style”; one that responds well to the harsh Central Texas heat. By DESIGN we achieved soft balanced and glare-free daylighting, comfortable temperatures via passive solar control measures, energy efficiency without reliance on maintenance-intensive Green “gizmos” and lower exterior maintenance. The client’s desire for a healthy, comfortable and fun home to raise a young family and to accommodate extended visitor stays, while being environmentally responsible through “high performance” building attributes, was met. Harmonious response to the site’s micro-climate, excellent Indoor Air Quality, enhanced natural ventilation strategies, and an elegant bug-free semi-outdoor “living room” that connects one to the outdoors are a few examples of the architect’s approach to Green by Design that results in a home that exceeds the expectations of its owners.

Inspiration for a large transitional beige floor living room remodel in Miami with beige walls

Free ebook, CREATING THE IDEAL KITCHEN Download now → http://bit.ly/idealkitchen After having remodeled their kitchen, and two other baths in the home, the master bathroom was the last on the list of rooms to update for this couple. The existing bath had a small sink area with his and hers sinks and then a pocket door into the main bath which housed the tub, shower and commode. The main problem was the outdated look of the space, which was rather dark and dreary, and the giant unused whirlpool tub which took up more than its fair share of the footprint. To brighten the space, we used a pallet of soft gray porcelain tile on the floor and ceramic subway tiles on the walls. Carrera marble and nickel plumbing brighten the room and help amplify the sunlight streaming in through the existing skylight and vaulted ceiling. We first placed the new freestanding tub on an angle near the window so that users can take advantage of the view and light while soaking in the tub. A new, much larger shower takes up the other corner and delivers some symmetry to the room and is now a luxurious, useable and comfortable size. The commode was relocated to the right of the new shower, so it is visually tucked away. The existing opening between the sink area and the main area was widened and the door removed so that the homeowners can enjoy the light from the larger room while using the sinks each morning. A step up into the tub/shower area provides additional interest and was a happy accident and solution required to accommodate running the plumbing through the existing floor joists. Because the existing room felt quite contemporary with the vaulted ceiling, we added a run of crown molding around the top and a chair rail to the top of the tile to provide some traditional touches to the room. We think this space is lovely, relaxing and serene and are so honored to have been chosen by these wonderful homeowners to help provide them with a relaxing master bath sanctuary!

Great American Fireplace installed this Kozy Heat Chaska 29 gas fireplace insert with modern glass media burner and decorative driftwood and rock accents. The ember bed on the insert lights up with your choice of crushed glass and decorative front. On some of the older wood burning models you are required to leave the louvers free and open for circulation so nothing gets overheated inside the framing cavity.

This was a half bathroom located on the first floor of the house. We expanded the bathroom into an oversized foyer space to make room for a shower. The project required breaking up some of the slab to run the plumbing lines for the new shower and toilet locations. We created a custom tile shower with a frameless glass door and accented the space with tile wainscoting. The bathroom had an entry from a common hallway area and from the living room. We installed barn doors as the entry doors to keep the inswing of a door from taking up valuable space. We also installed and stained a set of French doors to create a separate space for the living room.
