This 1990's home, located in North Vancouver's Lynn Valley neighbourhood, had high ceilings and a great open plan layout but the decor was straight out of the 90's complete with sponge painted walls in dark earth tones. The owners, a young professional couple, enlisted our help to take it from dated and dreary to modern and bright. We started by removing details like chair rails and crown mouldings, that did not suit the modern architectural lines of the home. We replaced the heavily worn wood floors with a new high end, light coloured, wood-look laminate that will withstand the wear and tear from their two energetic golden retrievers. Since the main living space is completely open plan it was important that we work with simple consistent finishes for a clean modern look. The all white kitchen features flat doors with minimal hardware and a solid surface marble-look countertop and backsplash. We modernized all of the lighting and updated the bathrooms and master bedroom as well. The only departure from our clean modern scheme is found in the dressing room where the client was looking for a more dressed up feminine feel but we kept a thread of grey consistent even in this more vivid colour scheme. This transformation, featuring the clients' gorgeous original artwork and new custom designed furnishings is admittedly one of our favourite projects to date!

Orange County, CA - Dynamic Garage Doors include multifunctional door configurations not only for regular garages but garages that have been converted to home offices, playrooms, additional bedrooms, multipurpose rooms as well as man caves throughout the Southern California regions. This custom garage door project consisted of creating a newly renovated garage into a multipurpose room which would double as a home office as well as entertainment space for guests. The original overhead garage door was eliminated to open up the room space and give the interior of this garage a real room feel as opposed to a makeshift room with an obvious garage feel. Since the converted garage was to be used as an entertainment area as well as an office it became obvious to introduce bi-folding doors or former accordion doors that could be pushed out of the way to expand the indoors to the outdoors and thus expanding the entertainment to the exterior of the structure as well during those summer evening gatherings. The large glass panes allow ample natural light to bathe the interior of the room when being used as an office and can keep the room's climate under controlled when the accordion doors are completely closed. These custom bi-folding doors seal out the weather while allowing the outdoors in with a warm vivid shower of natural light. What a pleasure it must be to have a working office with staggering windows that can double as an entertainment center in the evenings and weekends! Dynamic Garage Doors aren't just garage doors, they are functional creations that come in unlimited configurations to suit your needs. Whether you're converting your garage to useful, liveable square footage or simply increasing your home's curb appeal with one of our world-class designed garage doors. We've got just the door solution for your garage! Call us today for project price consultation: (855) 343-DOOR

Alexandria, Virginia Transitional Kitchen Design with Intriguing Zinc Accents by #MeghanBrowne4JenniferGilmer. Taking a holistic approach to the space, we moved the doorway to the garage first and created a new entrance with a mini-mud room with shelving and catch-all space that helps contain clutter as people enter the home. With the doorway removed from the center of the kitchen, we were also able to create an expansive countertop run with the zinc hood and blue range centered in the space for an ideal work zone. On the adjacent wall, we simply replaced the windows with shorter windows to allow for the sink to sit underneath and overlook the backyard. Photography by Bob Narod. http://www.gilmerkitchens.com/

Renovation of a 1952 Midcentury Modern Eichler home in San Jose, CA. Full remodel of kitchen, main living areas and central atrium incl flooring and new windows in the entire home - all to bring the home in line with its mid-century modern roots, while adding a modern style and a touch of Scandinavia.

This old bathroom was the last to get interior design attention in an otherwise beautiful Larchmont, Westchester home. A NYC podiatric surgeon and his lovely wife/business manager desperately wanted to [finally] renovate their master bath. The new master bathroom remodel needed to be spa-like and also fit into the rest of the home that had been carefully designed and curated over many years. Their children were grown and on their own, and finally it was time to indulge for themselves. Initially the plan was to simply replace the outdated tile, but in further discussion, it was clear that a gut renovation would be best. We began with a spa-like grey and white palette. The cool 12x24 Porcelanosa porcelain tiles were the perfect jump off point to dive into the serene concept. First, the shower was redesigned with a larger footprint and encapsulating it in beautiful, clear starphire glass. We then designed a custom space-transforming floating vanity with dark grey stained oak and a super white, engineered stone counter top. Next up, we got rid of the old built in tub and installed a stunning, deep soaking tub by Victoria + Albert. The shower and sink fixtures were also carefully curated with a distinctly European feel from the Solar line by Graff. Keeping with the simple, elegant vibe, we chose sophisticated, minimal white sconces by FLOS each side of the vanity mirrors. Contemporary recessed lighting replaced the outdated grid lights of the original bath. Now that we had our clean-lined, modern grey and white bath, we needed a light fixture to top it off. A little glamorous bling to be a super star. The perfect finishing touch? A Robert Abbey Bling Chandelier, of course! Less

Jill Buckner Photography To stay on design budget, our client decided to reface their existing kitchen cabinetry and keep their existing kitchen countertops and appliances. Replacing the cabinet doors and painting the lower cabinets black and the uppers white created a fresh new kitchen look that now reflects their style. Installing antique brass cabinet pulls and a glass subway tile backsplash introduced varied design textures and warm tones. And hanging nature-inspired lighting pendants over the kitchen peninsula transformed the kitchen so that it now relates to all the other furnishings and finishes in the home. There is now a sense of design harmony, inspiring the couple to spend quality time in their kitchen, either cooking together or simply enjoying a cup of coffee or a bottle of fine wine.
