Living room - mid-sized craftsman formal and open concept light wood floor living room idea in Detroit with beige walls, a standard fireplace, a tile fireplace and no tv

While the majority of APD designs are created to meet the specific and unique needs of the client, this whole home remodel was completed in partnership with Black Sheep Construction as a high end house flip. From space planning to cabinet design, finishes to fixtures, appliances to plumbing, cabinet finish to hardware, paint to stone, siding to roofing; Amy created a design plan within the contractor’s remodel budget focusing on the details that would be important to the future home owner. What was a single story house that had fallen out of repair became a stunning Pacific Northwest modern lodge nestled in the woods!

Hide, hang and find safe harbor for your possessions, plus do it stylishly, with these custom storage units featuring the attractive Sundown finish. With the recent snows, you can see clearly now what awaits this season. The splashy, splashy, sloppy mess of winter can be corralled with the slanted shoe shelves for boots in this slat wall. Slip off the footwear and rack them to dry and they will be ready when you next need them to ward off winter. Hanging hooks, that come in a design to accommodate almost every need, complement the slanted racks and help you fulfill your need for organization. While you can’t stave off winter, you can help control its effects with this storage system. Chicagoland Home Products realizes that your storage solutions might require an application very specific to your situation and look forward to designing and supplying that for you.

This modern custom home is a beautiful blend of thoughtful design and comfortable living. No detail was left untouched during the design and build process. Taking inspiration from the Pacific Northwest, this home in the Washington D.C suburbs features a black exterior with warm natural woods. The home combines natural elements with modern architecture and features clean lines, open floor plans with a focus on functional living.

"Should I put the TV in the bedroom or not?", is the magical question and surprisingly 71% do have them. If so, "where do I put it so it is not the center piece in my bedroom?" Here is a special designer TV lift furniture piece at the end of the bed with faux leather, Mahogany wood boarders and nail heads. Having a hand-made TV lift cabinet in your home is the ultimate in bespoke luxury – so why not take that indulgence a step further by placing a gorgeous, handmade TV stand at the foot of your bed? Cabinet Tronix is a leading US manufacturer of the finest pop-up TV stands, and their specialist team of craftsmen can create tailor-made units which sit perfectly at the end of any bed. With a range of models and designer finishes to choose from, Cabinet Tronix can help give any bedroom that touch of A-list luxury that takes it from drab to fab. A poll by the National Sleep Foundation found that an overwhelming 71% of Americans have a TV in their bedroom – but many of them are wall-mounted or positioned precariously on dressers or other stands. The end-of-bed TV lift units at Cabinet Tronix are specifically crafted to store flat-screen televisions safely and securely, while also complementing the existing interior beautifully. With so many people choosing to bring a TV into their bedroom, why not ensure it’s positioned perfectly, with a unit built to your specifications? Trace McCullough, Director of Cabinet Tronix, says, “So many of us bring televisions into our bedroom so that we can catch up on our favorite shows or have movie marathons from the comfort of our own bed. Here at Cabinet Tronix, we say: if you’re going to have a TV in the bedroom, why not give it the platform it demands? Our handcrafted end-of-bed TV lift cabinet position television screens perfectly, with optimal viewing angles for those reclining against their pillows. Our stunning designs can also complement any existing bedroom space, whether you prefer a traditional look or a more contemporary style.” The Toscana end-of-bed TV lift unit is one of the most sought-after designs at Cabinet Tronix, and a real favorite in bedrooms across the US. The chic studded design makes the unit a real focal point within the room, and the telescopic TV lift offers smooth and silent operation – so when you’re having a late-night Netflix marathon, you won’t wake the other half! These end-of-bed cabinets have been specifically designed to look great from any angle – there are no trailing wires or fake back panels; just a 100% high quality cabinet that is worthy of being the centerpiece of any bedroom.

The objective was to create a warm neutral space to later customize to a specific colour palate/preference of the end user for this new construction home being built to sell. A high-end contemporary feel was requested to attract buyers in the area. An impressive kitchen that exuded high class and made an impact on guests as they entered the home, without being overbearing. The space offers an appealing open floorplan conducive to entertaining with indoor-outdoor flow. Due to the spec nature of this house, the home had to remain appealing to the builder, while keeping a broad audience of potential buyers in mind. The challenge lay in creating a unique look, with visually interesting materials and finishes, while not being so unique that potential owners couldn’t envision making it their own. The focus on key elements elevates the look, while other features blend and offer support to these striking components. As the home was built for sale, profitability was important; materials were sourced at best value, while retaining high-end appeal. Adaptations to the home’s original design plan improve flow and usability within the kitchen-greatroom. The client desired a rich dark finish. The chosen colours tie the kitchen to the rest of the home (creating unity as combination, colours and materials, is repeated throughout). Photos- Paul Grdina

The Loon Room: Kids bunk room- As a weekly rental property built specifically for family vacations and group trips, maximizing comfortable sleeping space was a top priority. We used the extra-large bonus room above the garage as a bunk room designed for kids, but still comfortable enough for adult guests in larger groups. With 4 twin beds and a twin over full bunk this room sleeps 7 with some leftover space for a craft area and library stocked with children and young adult books. While the slanted walls were a decorating challenge, we used the same paint color on all of the walls and ceilings to wrap the room in one cohesive color without drawing attention to the lines. The faux beams and nautical jute rope light fixtures added some fun, whimsical elements that evoke a campy, boating theme without being overly nautical, since the house is on a lake and not on the ocean. Some other great design elements include a large dresser with boat cleat pulls, and some vintage oars and a boat motor mounted to the wall on the far side of the room.

Erin Bucia from Reico Kitchen and Bath in Springfield, VA, created a transitional-style inspired kitchen design featuring Merillat Autograph cabinets in the door style Bayard. The wall cabinets are in Dove White, while the base cabinets are in Evergreen. The kitchen also includes Calacatta Viraldi quartz countertops, KitchenAid appliances and a full height Daltile Mesmirist Allure MM33 3x12 backsplash. The client shared their experience: “While I love everything about my kitchen, the green tile backsplash is especially stunning. Erin suggested adding an extra cabinet for my baking supplies, which I really appreciate. The corner cabinets meet my specific needs. I couldn’t have done this without Erin’s help.” Erin commented, “The biggest challenge was providing enough storage for the client's baking and cooking supplies while still staying within budget. I loved incorporating their favorite color, green, into the design, and their enthusiasm made this project a joy to work on.” Photos courtesy of BTW Images.

Stacy's master bathroom was in dire need of an upgrade. The shower space was uncomfortably small and outdated, causing continual frustration. She asked us for a solution that would provide both ample space and visual appeal. Our in-house designer worked closely to understand her specific requirements. By utilizing 3D renderings, we were able to present a design that not only looked stunning but was tailored to her needs. To enhance the functionality, we removed the tub and built a custom shower featuring a pony wall and a flexible dry-off area. We also installed tempered frameless glass panels to the pony wall, creating a sleek and modern look. The new shower boasts a fresh and stylish design. The Michelangelo Extra White Porcelain creates a striking look on the shower wall, combined by the sleek Idyllic blends Tranquil Snow Mosaics utilized as well in the wall niche. The vanity area is a true masterpiece. Every detail has been carefully considered, including the Sollid Value Shaker White cabinets and Viatera Everest Quartz Countertops, and the exquisite Jeffrey Alexander Sutton Cabinet handles. To maximize storage space, tower cabinets were mounted on the countertops. The aesthetic is enhanced by the Jeffrey Alexander Cade framed mirrors, the sleek Delta Kayra faucets and the Craftmade Bolden 18-in 3-Light vanity lights. We are thrilled to have been able to provide Stacy with a bathroom that perfectly suits her desires. The process, from initial planning to final construction, was seamless and personalized to her specifications. It brings us great joy to see her dream bathroom become a reality.
