Leaking and freezing pipes kicked this Minneapolis bathroom remodel into gear. The bathroom was already in need of a revamp, but the plumbing emergency forced the homeowner to act quickly.
The style of this new space, the homeowners are calling, “an architect’s style.” We’d interpret this as moody grays, mixed textures, and an overall clean and crisp feeling. We used a combination of linen textured tile on the floors, paired with contrasting white tile on the walls.
Gray/brown stained maple cabinetry, custom-made by Woodshop of Avon, really gives the vanity beautiful depth; contrasting with simple Cambria quartz Swanbridge counters.
The remodel included a new soaker tub with a separate walk-in, curbless shower and new Delta plumbing fixtures. The renovated space brings luxury and function into this family’s daily routine.

For a family who routinely has 40+ family member get-togethers, an upscale house that feels grand but well enjoyed was top priority. We updated the kitchen, living room, dining room, guest house and bathroom in this custom renovation. The kitchen hosts two islands for ideal functionality for large gatherings, and flow out to the pool in summer months. Custom cabinetry hides the dishwashers, and refrigerator drawers. The stained beams in the guest house match the kitchen for a cohesive feel. The shiplap and custom stained wet bar cabinetry bring formality while the zero entry pool bath is whimsical and fun.

This master bathroom project is breathtaking blend of luxury and functionality, designed to create a serene retreat within the home. the space has been meticulously transformed, showcasing high-end finishes and thoughtful design elements that elevate everyday routines into moments of indulgence.

If you ever found yourself shopping for a new home, finding a model home, falling in love with this model home and immediately signing on the dotted line. Yet after a few months of moving into your new home you realize that the kitchen and the layout of main level will not work out for your lifestyle. The model home you fell in love with was furnished with beautiful furniture distracting you from concentrating on what is really important to you. This is what happened to this couple in Ashburn, VA, after purchasing their dream home.
The kitchen lacked natural light, while its location was not ideal and was disrupting their daily routine. After a careful review of the kitchen design, a plan was formed to upgrade the kitchen.
Their kitchen was moved to a location between the two-story family room and front dining room. To the left of the family room there was a breakfast eating area that was not serving any purpose.
Our design incorporated the breakfast area placed along a couple feet from an adjacent pantry space to create this new dream kitchen.
By knocking down a few bearing walls, we have placed the main sink area under large backside windows. Now the kitchen can look into their beautiful backyard. A major load bearing wall between the old breakfast room and adjacent two-story family was taken down and a big steel beam took the place of that, creating a large seamless connection between the new kitchen and the rest of the home.
A large island was implemented with a prep sink, microwave, and with lots of seating space around it. Large scale professional appliances along with stunning mosaic backsplash tiles complement this amazing kitchen design.
Double barn style door in front of the pantry area sets off this storage space tucked away from rest of the kitchen. All the old tile was removed and a matching wide plank distressed wood floor was installed to create a seamless connection to rest of the home. A matching butler pantry cabinet area just outside of dining room and a wine station/drink serving area between family room and main foyer were added to better utilize the multi-function needs of the family.
The custom inset cabinetry with double layers and exotic stone counter top, distressed ceiling beams, and other amenities are just a few standouts of this project.

This renovation focused on improving functionality, storage, and overall flow while creating a more refined and cohesive aesthetic throughout the primary bathroom, mudroom, laundry area, and powder room. The design introduces custom built-ins, enhanced organization, updated fixtures, and durable materials while replacing dated finishes with a cleaner, more contemporary look. The project also reimagines underutilized spaces to better support the homeowners’ daily routines.

The original kitchen in this condominium was renovated arising from the need to replace Kitec plumbing. The work triangle remained generally the same, but numerous changes were made to improve the kitchen’s functionality, aesthetics, and lighting. Automation was also introduced. The goal was to design and build a modern contemporary functional kitchen with inspiring colours accented with textured wood features.
The functionality was improved with the addition of an under counter microwave, which freed up countertop space. Additional and improved storage was also created by incorporating under cabinet drawers throughout the kitchen, a bar area with open glass shelving above, and open shelving to the right of the seating area. Upper cabinet storage was as well increased with storage above the fridge.
Numerous lighting improvements were made including the addition of potlights. This was done by dropping the ceiling in the kitchen, which also created a visual division with the dining area. Automation was introduced as well into the space with HUE under cabinet lighting, and a touch faucet. The under cabinet lights are controlled by the Phillips Hue App that programs routines, scenes, and other settings.
The kitchen features painted Shaker cabinets accented by textured wood shelving. The countertop surfaces are quartz with waterfalls on both sides of the island, which is a focal point. Shapes are also strongly identified in the design with the use of triangular tiles in the backsplash along with rectangular upper cabinets, and appliance doors and drawers. The kitchen is made most unique though with the uplifting use of colour in the cabinets that make this a bright and cheerful space.

Shale grey island is topped with a beautiful blended walnut butcherblock top. Top also has a varnished finish, so no maintenance and routine oiling to upkeep!

To fully enjoy the winter holidays, with all the snow and cold, was the basis for our client’s decision to maintain their Chicago home when they were transferred to the warm and sunny west coast. A trusted caretaker was put in place to oversee and maintain their property; however, even excellent planning sometimes runs off-track.
In the midst of winter the caretaker left on a well-planned vacation. The homeowner’s were apprised of dates and, without a worry, everyone went on about their daily routines. That is, until the caretaker returned and found the home in such utter devastation, he could not believe what had happened in such a short amount of time.
The ill-timed vacation, planned during what became an extremely cold timeframe, was the home’s undoing. With the heat in the home turned slightly lower, to accommodate the emptiness, paired with the below zero temperatures, the hot water pipe in the main floor Sunroom froze and burst. The gushing, steaming water, unchecked, moved in so many directions, it is difficult to comprehend.
As the water soaked through the Sunroom flooring to the walk-out Lower Level Area below, ice blocks were freezing before the water reached the ground; Ice blocks so thick only time and warmer temperatures were able to thaw. Since the heating systems were unaffected, the heat, paired with the steaming moisture, raised the humidity levels in the entire home; what wasn’t wet ultimately became mold covered.
The humidity in the home was raised to such a level that window and door seals were compromised and condensation clouded most of the interior glass panes. The Kitchen wood flooring, saturated with water, buckled, causing the cabinets to lift and the granite to crack.
The ceiling in the lower level Bar Area fell as the water flooded both the Bar and the adjoining Billiards Room, wreaking havoc on cabinetry, carpet, artwork, etc.
After the insurance estimation determined the home was salvageable, the design phase began in earnest headed by LaMantia’s James Campbell, CKD and aided by Katie Suva, CKD, CBD as the guides. After a very long march towards recovery, the home is now back to the pristine beauty it once was.

The library, pantries, office, laundry, and the master and guest bedroom suites encircle the Great Room, allowing the primary living space to remain open, elegant and functional. Residents and caretakers circulate seamlessly between bedrooms and the nerve center of the home. Expansive passage between each zone of the Great Room, and throughout the home, accommodates movement assistive devices. Accessible bathing, including a roll-in shower and dedicated dressing area near the laundry streamline the family’s personal care routines. Passive solar illumination, including both traditional and tubular skylights, minimizes the home’s energy consumption.

Barndominiums beautifully blend rustic charm with modern comfort. Take this 3-bedroom gem, for example. Step onto the welcoming porch and enter an open layout encompassing dining, kitchen, and living areas, perfect for both relaxation and entertainment. Discover a rear porch accessible from the mudroom, providing a tranquil retreat. Inside, the master bedroom offers a closet and attached bath for ultimate relaxation. Additional bedrooms feature their own closets, ensuring ample storage. With a common bath and convenient laundry area, daily routines are streamlined. This Barndominium creates an inviting sanctuary for all to enjoy.

Additionally, having a laundry room within the apartment building saves time and effort, making it a convenient feature for those who lead busy lives. Overall, while the laundry room in a London apartment may not be particularly glamorous, it certainly serves a practical purpose for residents.
