when i returned to my hometown of berkeley, california after living in a variety of cities over thirty years, i wanted to create a home that represented all of the adventures i shared with my family across the globe. (by the way - i was absolutely THRILLED to come home!) this 1880s farmhouse in southwest berkeley, that was completely renovated and modernized, felt like the perfect canvas for our lives. a wooden staircase leads to the home’s main entrance on the second floor, which includes the living room, dining area and kitchen, the primary bedroom and ensuite bath and another upstairs bedroom and bathroom. a long deck extends off the back of the house and is accessible from sliding glass doors in both the primary bedroom and the kitchen. the downstairs has an office, which doubles as a guest room, a third bathroom and a lounge area with floor to ceiling cabinetry and bookshelves (i LOVE cupboards!) the third floor is a long, wide library with access to the roof deck that has views of the bay bridge and san francisco. the exterior of the home is painted a deep charcoal with navy undertones and white trim. cedar siding centers the staircase and the front door. the interior palette includes clean white walls throughout, white oak flooring, cool grays in the tile and blond wood kitchen and bathroom cabinets all punctuated with matte black hardware, lighting fixtures and black steel railings. texture and color pops are brought in with the art pieces, rugs and textiles, giving the home vibrancy and warmth. the fifteen foot ceilings on the main floor give the space an open, gallery-like feel. we had so much fun playing with art placement, hanging pieces at various, sometimes unexpected heights.

Welcome to our newest kitchen transformation, where classic elegance meets modern functionality! ? Dive into the calming shades of blue and white that paint a serene yet lively canvas. The wooden beams effortlessly steal the show, giving a nod to timeless architectural beauty while adding warmth and contrast to the high ceilings. The exquisite marble countertops provide a seamless space for culinary adventures, perfectly complemented by state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances. Notice the intricate brick archway? It's a charming doorway to more wonders, enhancing the room's character. And can we talk about that sparkling chandelier? It's like a constellation, illuminating delightful conversations and cherished meals. A harmonious blend of storage and display, our customized cabinets cater to every need. Whether it's the sophisticated wine rack, the display cabinets showcasing precious trinkets, or the spacious drawers, there's a place for everything. Gather around the inviting island, where stories brew over coffee and laughter echoes over dinners. Every inch of this space radiates love, design finesse, and the joy of togetherness. We're so proud to share this gem with our Houzz family! ???

This 6,399-square-foot house in Boca Raton belongs to two surgeons who love to travel. And it needed a facelift in order to truly feel like a home that reflected their tastes, lifestyle and shared memories. So Laure Nell Interiors came on board to remodel and modernize their kitchen and dining room, create a dedicated office nook, and design an inviting mudroom clad in encaustic ceramic tile that greets the owners when they come home after a busy day at work. The owners wanted a streamlined, European-inspired kitchen with Scandinavian, minimalist details where the stone-wrapped hood would be the hero. But it would also need to function for the wife who likes to bake often with their younger daughter. We created an integrated bar to house the owners’ beloved collection of Barollo wines from Italy, and custom shelving that displays their Murano glass pieces along with ceramics that were also brought back from Europe. A creamy palette of white quartz with minimal veining provided a canvas for custom sandy-hued cabinetry—each door panel hand painted in a custom finish that preserves the natural variations of the wood. Taupe dining chairs harmonize with the color scheme, contrasted with pops of caramel from Demvel’s custom leather cabinet handles and leather seat in the mudroom, and barstools from Design Within Reach. Now the owners and their family can continue their Nordic adventures even when they’re still at home. Photography by Jack Cook

We are excited to share our latest project a Modern Farmhouse. Our client loves East Coast style this was fun to create with the best bones we had to just select phenomenal materials to make this space look fantastic! Center stage is this great window with a view of a backyard oasis. The cabinetry is special and unique with doors that you can’t find everywhere. Take a close look at the details!! We blocked out the corner of the kitchen where the subzero refrigerator freezer is located to create a space for the pullout pantries that are located on each side of the ref/freezer. It is a design element but I prefer to cover the dishwasher to have an uninterrupted are that makes the sink a focal point. This kitchen sink is a native trails concrete farm sink which pairs perfectly with the caesarstone rugged concrete countertop. Custom made hood with charred wood that is the perfect accent to a subway tile that has rustic elements. In the center is a 36" wolf range, off to the left finishing out this kitchen is a steam unit. This kitchen deliveries on style and the culinary desires of the most adventurous cooks. @SubzeroandWolf Appliances Cabinetry and Kitchen Design @signaturedesigns_kbi #customcabinets #farmhouse #blueisland
