  Free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW   Working with this Glen Ellyn client was so much fun the first time around, we were thrilled when they called to say they were considering moving across town and might need some help with a bit of design work at the new house. The kitchen in the new house had been recently renovated, but it was not exactly what they wanted. What started out as a few tweaks led to a pretty big overhaul of the kitchen, mudroom and laundry room. Luckily, we were able to use re-purpose the old kitchen cabinetry and custom island in the remodeling of the new laundry room — win-win! As parents of two young girls, it was important for the homeowners to have a spot to store equipment, coats and all the “behind the scenes” necessities away from the main part of the house which is a large open floor plan. The existing basement mudroom and laundry room had great bones and both rooms were very large. To make the space more livable and comfortable, we laid slate tile on the floor and added a built-in desk area, coat/boot area and some additional tall storage. We also reworked the staircase, added a new stair runner, gave a facelift to the walk-in closet at the foot of the stairs, and built a coat closet. The end result is a multi-functional, large comfortable room to come home to! Just beyond the mudroom is the new laundry room where we re-used the cabinets and island from the original kitchen. The new laundry room also features a small powder room that used to be just a toilet in the middle of the room. You can see the island from the old kitchen that has been repurposed for a laundry folding table. The other countertops are maple butcherblock, and the gold accents from the other rooms are carried through into this room. We were also excited to unearth an existing window and bring some light into the room.

An 80's style concrete and brick pool patio area has been redesigned with beautiful travertine sandset pavers. The pool's facelift included raising the spa elevation to create a prerimeter overflow edge. Mosaic glass tile completely covers the entire raised spa inside and out and is also used for the waterline tile for the pool and up the face of the newly designed raised bond beam water feature wall with pot pilasters. Cut stacked travertine was used to face all of the vertical faces of the masonry pilasters, fire feature, and the three separate serving counters designed for this family who loves to entertain. The old white lattice wood patio cover is now replaced by an elegant solid roof patio cover completed by white composite columns and metal seamed roof. Expertly designed and installed landscape lighting, along with two electric heaters in the patio cover, and the fire feature extend the enjoyment of these outdoor spaces well into the night.

For a neglected 1928 Mission Revival house on San Francisco’s Potrero Hill, we were charged with enlarging it to the rear as well as reconfiguring and redesigning the entire interior. The kitchen and baths hadn’t been remodeled since the 60s and the original heavy wood detailing throughout and small rooms cried out for updating. The rear yard was overgrown and on a much lower level which required traversing a long side stair to access. We extended the ground floor 9 feet where we created a large new family room, a new bedroom, a bathroom, and wine storage with a new roof deck up top. Large sliding doors at the family room open to a new deck and terraced gardens which we collaborated on the design of with a landscape architect. At the main living level, we added a small bay addition to the rear and opened things up to create a new great room consisting of breakfast, kitchen, and dining areas with maximum glazing to open it up to the views and access a new roof deck above the ground floor addition. On the top floor, we reconfigured the bedrooms and created a new primary suite with a separate tub, shower, double vanity, water closet, and our signature slot skylight. New stairs and finishes throughout completed the modernization.

For this kitchen and bath remodel in San Francisco's Cole Valley, our client wanted us to open the kitchen up to the living room and create a new modern feel for all of the remodeled areas. Opening the kitchen to the living area provided a structural challenge as the wall we had to remove was load-bearing and there was a separately owned condo on the floor below. Working closely with a structural engineer, we created a strategy to carry the weight to the exterior walls of the building. In order to do this we had to tear off the entire roof and rebuild it with new structural joists which could span from property line to property line. To achieve a dramatic daylighting effect, we created a slot skylight over the back wall of the kitchen with the beams running through the skylight. Cerulean blue, back-painted glass for the backsplash and a thick waterfall edge for the island add more distinctive touches to this kitchen design. In the master bath we created a sinuous counter edge which tracks its way to the floor to create a curb for the shower. Green tile imported from Morocco adds a pop of color in the shower and a custom built indirect LED lighting cove creates a glow of light around the mirror. Photography by Christopher Stark.
