Completed in 2013, this house started as a traditionally-styled 1,800 sf., single story, two bedroom, one bath home and became an all-new warm contemporary 2,700 sf., two story, four bedroom, three bath residence for a family of five. The budget dictated the re-use of the existing foundations, garage and far right ground floor bedroom footprint. The City of San Mateo had strict planning rules prohibiting contemporary design, but the end result, a blend of traditional and contemporary, has become a model project for the city. Being environmentally conscious, the owners utilized radiant hydronic heated engineered fumed-oak floors. They opted for fully operable windows with good cross-ventilation and a whole house fan instead of installing gas furnaces, ductwork, or air conditioning. The new second floor conceals a 3 kW solar photovoltaic system that cannot be seen from the street. The rock formation in the front yard is one of two bioswales that hold roof rainwater temporarily for slow dissipation into the city's storm water system. Photo Credit: Paul Dyer Photography

Designing our clients’ space in Alta Vista, the concept was to accentuate the room’s architectural beauty while infusing pattern and color to pull in the natural splendor of the outdoors. We incorporated bold colors, loved by our clients, pairing them with neutral tones to create balance. Each element packs a punch individually yet allows the eye to cohesively perceive one space. This inviting room emits warmth and comfort for all seasons and entertaining occasions.

The homeowners wanted a rustic country kitchen and the knotted alder cabinets with the oil rubbed brass handles made that idea come true. The alder has a clear satin finish to had a little sheen but still show the detail of the wood. -Allison Caves, CKD Caves Kitchens

This project was a complete renovation of a single-family residence perched on a mountain in Lake Tahoe, NV. The house features large expanses of glass that will provide a direct connection to the exterior for picture-perfect lake, mountain and forest views. Created for an art collector, the interior has all the features of a gallery: an open plan, white walls, clean lines, and carefully located sight lines that frame each individual piece. Exterior materials include steel and glass windows, stained cedar lap siding and a standing seam metal roof. Photography: Leslee Mitchell
