Our clients wanted to create a backyard that would grow with their young family as well as with their extended family and friends. Entertaining was a huge priority! This family-focused backyard was designed to equally accommodate play and outdoor living/entertaining. The outdoor living spaces needed to accommodate a large number of people – adults and kids. Urban Oasis designed a deck off the back door so that the kitchen could be 36” height, with a bar along the outside edge at 42” for overflow seating. The interior space is approximate 600 sf and accommodates both a large dining table and a comfortable couch and chair set. The fire pit patio includes a seat wall for overflow seating around the fire feature (which doubles as a retaining wall) with ample room for chairs. The artificial turf lawn is spacious enough to accommodate a trampoline and other childhood favorites. Down the road, this area could be used for bocce or other lawn games. The concept is to leave all spaces large enough to be programmed in different ways as the family’s needs change. A steep slope presents itself to the yard and is a focal point. Planting a variety of colors and textures mixed among a few key existing trees changed this eyesore into a beautifully planted amenity for the property. Jimmy White Photography

Inspiration for an industrial great room remodel with white walls

This was a fun remodeling project for us and our client. They had an older house with a closed off kitchen that they wanted to open up more. We designed a kitchen where we removed a wall and sealed up a doorway to make a more conventional layout. We also removed the plaster from the chimney to showcase the exposed brick, which the customer loved. The new cabinets for the kitchen were done in a light American walnut wiping stain and hickory wood. The door style was our shaker door from our Kitchen Solvers Legacy Collection. To add a little contrast, we did the island and coffee bar in a sage color. Next, we installed a new Matterhorn quartz countertop and a 2” x 5” Pickett mosaic backsplash in Aqua. To finish this transformation, we installed a new LVP in the house to make the rooms feel more cohesive.
