Inspiration for a transitional home design remodel in Chicago

Harmoniously blending luxury and functionality, our latest project is a testament to thoughtful design and seamless integration. A custom-designed pool takes center stage, surrounded by meticulously crafted patios and decks, offering spaces for relaxation and entertainment. Complementing the pool, a bespoke pool house stands as a retreat for both convenience and leisure. It seamlessly combines style and function, providing a space for respite and recreation. What sets this project apart is the meticulous planning and execution. Every element, from the pool to the patios, has been expertly designed to work together within a master landscape plan. The result is a cohesive and visually stunning outdoor space that caters to both aesthetics and practicality. This project is a celebration of outdoor living at its finest. It's a sanctuary for relaxation, a hub for entertainment, and a testament to our commitment to creating spaces that enhance the lifestyle of our clients. We take pride in presenting this haven, knowing it will be cherished for years to come. It's not just a project; it's a legacy of unforgettable moments and cherished gatherings, all seamlessly woven into the fabric of everyday life.

A truly beautiful addition to the Normandy Beach community, this custom home sits overlooking the Barnegat Bay. A summer escape for an ever-growing family, Falcon Industries has had the privelege of building two custom homes for this amazing family. Taking into consideration new building codes and elevations put in place following Hurricane Sandy, this home artfully meets these standards while creating a comfortable and inviting respite from the everyday. Custom furniture, including bedding and dressers hand-built by the Falcon team, are just some of the magical elements of this residence.

Since it was built in 1910 by Alfred and Grace Hare this home has been lovingly cared for by it’s past and present owners, and for that care it was declared a Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument. The home’s charm is everywhere: stone porch, shingles, original wood wainscoting and trims, glass buffet, but our clients’ young family had desperately outgrown the tiny kitchen. With thought, care, and quality workmanship an addition at the rear afforded them a new kitchen and main bedroom suite. Hive Home designed the kitchen to marry modern function with the home’s historic whimsy, creating a fresh space that feels right at home. The main bath is a soothing respite with a custom colored historic tile floor and a generous shower space. So many subtle details were decided on (keep an eye out for the hares), and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the result. We hope our clients love their new space for many happy years to come!

Trail Top is nestled in a secluded, thickly-wooded neighborhood, and its wood and brick facade and low profile blend into the natural surroundings. The home was built as a private respite from the outside world, as evidenced by the solid wood, windowless doors that grace the entrance.

This Friendswood, TX, family had a fantastic existing backyard with a large custom pool. They imagined themselves getting even more time by the pool with much-needed sun protection, a common request here in the Houston area. With substantial poolside space, Archadeck of Southwest Houston was able to design and build a large covered patio and outdoor kitchen outdoor living combination. Not only will they have a place of respite and entertainment, they now have a protected area with a built-in outdoor kitchen for cooking and eating under their covered patio. Talk about usable outdoor living space!

Our approach was to maximize natural light, enhancing the open feel of the home. We achieved this through a palette of light shades on the walls and floors, creating a tranquil backdrop for home life. In the living room, simplicity meets sophistication. The sleek open kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious living area. A unique feature of the layout is a mechanism that can transform the space from open to closed, providing both privacy and openness as desired. Natural materials prevail in the interior: wood brings warmth to each room, while the microcement floors add a touch of contemporary elegance. Elements of natural stone ground the space, bringing an organic touch to the modern home. The furniture is selected for both comfort and aesthetic appeal, with soft fabrics and a neutral color scheme. Instead of a traditional TV, we opted for a projector, adding a contemporary, cinematic feel to the living space. The fireplace has a curved metal wood shelf that is as functional as it is artistic. Upstairs is the master bedroom and a teen girl's bedroom. The master bedroom is a light-filled respite, with a feature wall of glass blocks elegantly separating it from the bathroom. This private nook is done in contemporary terracotta tones with dark hardware, creating a space that is simultaneously lush and relaxing. The teen girl's room, decorated in soft milky tones with delicate accents of light blue and light pink, is an airy and modern space for inspiration. The interior of the NOM house is designed not just to be seen, but to be lived in, creating an environment where every moment is spent in comfort and style. Size / 300 sq.m.

A limestone deck surrounds this beautiful infinity pool and negative edge spa with mosaic glass tile accents. The view from the back highlights the impressive modular retaining wall that spans the backyard. A metal pergola provides shade for a respite from the sun.

At the pool’s deep end special fibreglass walk-in steps include three moulded seats with therapeutic spa jets. After a hard day of play around the pool these three sought after spots offer a welcome respite.

A country club respite for our busy professional Bostonian clients. Our clients met in college and have been weekending at the Aquidneck Club every summer for the past 20+ years. The condos within the original clubhouse seldom come up for sale and gather a loyalist following. Our clients jumped at the chance to be a part of the club's history for the next generation. Much of the club’s exteriors reflect a quintessential New England shingle style architecture. The internals had succumbed to dated late 90s and early 2000s renovations of inexpensive materials void of craftsmanship. Our client’s aesthetic balances on the scales of hyper minimalism, clean surfaces, and void of visual clutter. Our palette of color, materiality & textures kept to this notion while generating movement through vintage lighting, comfortable upholstery, and Unique Forms of Art. A Full-Scale Design, Renovation, and furnishings project.

Tired of freezing bleak winters, this client decided to split her time between Michigan and Southern California. She bought this bright, airy home that epitomizes West Coast living, but the prior owner had not done anything to maintain the garden in many years. The grounds were filled with poorly placed and sickly-looking plants. The new homeowner wanted her garden to be a respite from subzero temperatures, filled year-round with flowers. Deciding what to keep, what to move and what to add, we came up with a plant pallet full of California and Mexico natives, and lots of succulents as well. We added over 1000 plants, filling this property with lush, year-round color that is undeniably Southern Californian.
