Pull-out waste
Inspiration for a transitional medium tone wood floor kitchen remodel in Milwaukee with recessed-panel cabinets, white cabinets, granite countertops, gray backsplash, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and an island

This cozy Mid-Century Modern kitchen was a fun collaboration between Cabinets & Such and the Homeowners. The cabinetry is by Bauformat USA in their Burger "Bosco Cameo" finish on the upper cabinets and "Nougat" on the base cabinets. Why waste precious space with knobs and handles? These cabinets utilize the sleek channel system and tip-on/push-to-open mechanisms. Countertops in "Frost" by Arizona Tile and Luxury Vinyl flooring in "Essential Oak". Chunky stainless steel floating shelves allow for a smart display of their colorful tea pot collection. Photography by Dave Clark with Monterey Virtual Tours.

Bigger is not always better, but something of highest quality is. This amazing, size-appropriate Lake Michigan cottage is just that. Nestled in an existing historic stretch of Lake Michigan cottages, this new construction was built to fit in the neighborhood, but outperform any other home in the area concerning energy consumption, LEED certification and functionality. It features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an open concept kitchen/living room, a separate mudroom entrance and a separate laundry. This small (but smart) cottage is perfect for any family simply seeking a retreat without the stress of a big lake home. The interior details include quartz and granite countertops, stainless appliances, quarter-sawn white oak floors, Pella windows, and beautiful finishing fixtures. The dining area was custom designed, custom built, and features both new and reclaimed elements. The exterior displays Smart-Side siding and trim details and has a large EZE-Breeze screen porch for additional dining and lounging. This home owns all the best products and features of a beach house, with no wasted space. Cottage Home is the premiere builder on the shore of Lake Michigan, between the Indiana border and Holland.

SF fam ?—Castro lofts or Mission studios feeling like a Tetris game? Meet your new “small space storage bible”: 1. Vertical Wall Theft: Ditch wasted square footage. Grab reclaimed wood shelves (vintage finds from Buffalo Exchange) for pots/spices—saves half the space of overhead cabinets. 2. Attic “Fold & Transform”: Sloped ceilings suck? Snag a foldable wooden stool-ladder (Target’s retro-industrial pick)—fold it for steps, unfold it as extra seating, and stash 3 storage bins no problem.

Architectural Resource is extremely excited to share with you the 'River View' house. This very special remodeling project was the first remodeling project in S.E. Michigan to achieve Emerald Certification (the highest level possible) in the National Association of Home Builder’s (NAHB) National Green Building Certification Program. This home combines smart, sustainable design; advanced construction techniques; and integrated solar panels for renewable energy capture. The result… our clients received a Credit for net excess electrical production in July of 2014, the hottest July on record to date! This state of the art remodel and addition project includes a new two-story addition, master suite and kitchen remodel, and a view of the Huron River valley that one reporter exclaimed was "the most beautiful view in Ann Arbor!" -Beth Singer Photography

This scullery combines smart storage with clean design. Sage green shaker cabinets conceal a pull-out trash and recycling system that keeps waste organized and out of sight. A built-in wine refrigerator, quartz countertops, and open shelving create a practical prep and beverage station that supports the main kitchen while maintaining a clean look.

Organize your shoes as you add style! This chic shoe storage cabinet designed with glass Shaker style doors in a White finish will hold close to 100 pairs of shoes. This unit was designed on a master bedroom corner where the wall juts out, not wanting to waste that space we created a wall unit in two separate depths. 9" on the left and 14" on the right. Unit is 95 ¼” tall, 3 ft wide, it has adjustable shelving and 2 Shakers glass doors.

Smart technology was incorporated into this Needham bathroom remodel as part of a whole house overhaul. The client was looking for a clean, modern look while maximizing space. Lighting was critical as there are no windows in this pass-through bathroom. The mirror uses an environmentally-friendly LED light strip which reduces energy waste. Also, the backlit design is a natural and soft light, your eyes can easily adapt and is more suitable for makeup. There is a USB port and two additional outlets inside. An organizer on the first shelf keeps clutter off the counter.

This beautiful white kitchen belongs to a home in Saratoga Springs, NY nearby Saratoga Lake. The kitchen layout was redesigned, and the whole space remodeled completely to showcase its full potential, seen from the open living room and breakfast nook. The Beaded Inset cabinetry is from Shiloh, in Arctic white painted Maple, and the Square Flat Panel style. The cabinetry range hood is a beautiful focal point, along with the glass doors highlighted by LED lighting, and the detailed moldings throughout. The hardwood floors were refinished, and the kitchen along with adjacent rooms were painted a complimentary blue. The stunning Quartzite counter is called Wicked White from the Granite & Marble Works in nearby Wilton, NY, and the tumbled marble subway tile back splash coordinates well with the cabinets and counter. There is also undercabinet LED lighting, and the hardware used is from the Forte 2 Collection from Berenson. A Kohler Farm Sink was installed in the large island, and convenient storage solutions are hidden around the kitchen--such as a pull-out spice rack behind a filler, deep drawers for pots and pans, and a door mounted waste base cabinet.

We pride ourselves on creating uniquely personal solutions for our customers. For this customer, in the same room as the fireplace and the 2 large tower speakers, we also connected their turntable to the audio system. In another situation, a subwoofer was desired for the master bedroom. To not waste space we installed a slim sub under the bed. Turntable with 2.1 channel performance audio
