"Transitional" -- what exactly does this term mean? Especially, when describing interior design. Transitional style design, usually means that you have characteristics of both modern and traditional in your space. You kind of fall in that even middle ground between both styles. For this dining room, our client was just that. However, she wasn't aware of it. She was trying to pair multiple traditional elements together, but it left her feeling unhappy. The space was feeling dark, filled with heavy furniture and nothing was popping or even uplifting. She knew she liked to mix patterns and textures, but was also unsure of how to achieve that. As I looked around her home, I realized that their art collection definitely leaned more on the modern and colorful side of the spectrum. This was a big indicator to me, she wasn't fully traditional at all, she was more transitional! That was my que, and we got to work and this is the result. Native House Photography

The original kitchen was standard builder-grade oak cabinets with laminate flooring. Upstairs had carpeting in the bedrooms, as well as the main walk areas. Our customer picked a 5" wide plank Hickory wood floor throughout the home. The cabinetry they chose was a shaker-style, White painted cabinet from Merillat. To lighten up the home we added fresh coats of paint on all of the walls and trim, and replaced their outdated lighting with new fixtures.

A very Traditional Design featuring a Double V-Shape, top and bottom This pair of doors each have a panel that measures - 11-1/8" x 29-13/16". The glass used was Spectrum Glass - A/100Flute - Clear Fluted Glass, ran vertically. This is a very, very subtle glass and almost impossible to take good pictures of. For the Lead Came we used a Traditional Antique Lead Came which worked great with the cabinet hardware and very much in keeping with the period.. .

On the exterior, the desire was to weave the home into the fabric of the community, all while paying special attention to meld the footprint of the house into a workable clean, open, and spacious interior free of clutter and saturated in natural light to meet the owner’s simple but yet tasteful lifestyle. The utilization of natural light all while bringing nature’s canvas into the spaces provides a sense of harmony. Light, shadow and texture bathe each space creating atmosphere, always changing, and blurring the boundaries between the indoor and outdoor space. Color abounds as nature paints the walls. Though they are all white hues of the spectrum, the natural light saturates and glows, all while being reflected off of the beautiful forms and surfaces. Total emersion of the senses engulf the user, greeting them with an ever changing environment. Style gives way to natural beauty and the home is neither of the past or future, rather it lives in the moment. Stable, grounded and unpretentious the home is understated yet powerful. The environment encourages exploration and an awakening of inner being dispelling convention and accepted norms. The home encourages mediation embracing principals associated with silent illumination. If there was one factor above all that guided the design it would be found in a word, truth. Experience the delight of the creator and enjoy these photos.

Inquire About Our Design Services What we did: I started with color. With the current state of the room covered in red I knew they were so over it. Carol requesting warmth in their home so I had to do it with adding textiles while using a cooler color palette. Upon digging deeper I realized that both Carol and John were exactly 2 opposites of the style spectrum. Carol loved the beach she loved anything Cape Cod she liked the grays the beiges the neutrals while John had a more modern condo bachelor city style to him. The toughest part was finding the furniture style balance that complemented both of them, so that they can live in this house comfortably and enjoy forever. Here are the highlights of the rest of the project: Came up with a spacial plan, color, and fabric scheme that worked for where the couple is today. Used seating groupings to break up a otherwise large room Reused a couple pieces of furniture and accessories. Selected all furnishings, accessories, and art. Customized an entertainment piece that has since kept John in the living room and out of the basement. What I love: They gave me the go ahead to mix up styles, all while keeping the palette fresh and clean. Those damn rugs. I have since ordered 1 for my own home The art on the fireplace. We were able to go BIG and dramatic since we had the ceiling height Marcel Page Photography

SKP Design has completed a frame up renovation of a 1956 Spartan Imperial Mansion. We combined historic elements, modern elements and industrial touches to reimagine this vintage camper which is now the showroom for our new line of business called Ready To Roll. http://www.skpdesign.com/spartan-imperial-mansion You'll see a spectrum of materials, from high end Lumicor translucent door panels to curtains from Walmart. We invested in commercial LVT wood plank flooring which needs to perform and last 20+ years but saved on decor items that we might want to change in a few years. Other materials include a corrugated galvanized ceiling, stained wall paneling, and a contemporary spacious IKEA kitchen. Vintage finds include an orange chenille bedspread from the Netherlands, an antique typewriter cart from Katydid's in South Haven, a 1950's Westinghouse refrigerator and the original Spartan serial number tag displayed on the wall inside.

Here's a fantastic example of 3 Lights Design's Collaborative Construction approach to design. A contractor craftsman, and a practicing Buddhist, who was also part of a group of conscious investors, approached 3 Lights Designs to carry out a set permit drawings. Even though the plans seemed mostly done, and even though they were building the project to sell, we insisted that he go through our Full-Spectrum Client Intake to get to know him better and to see the project through his eyes. Instead of envisioning his own home, the zen master craftsman envisioned a home for the ideal clients, creating a space, as he put it "that 'sings' when they walk into it." Guided by the vision, we all worked together, taking a fresh look a the project, revealing heretofore unseen opportunities that opened up the space, connected it more with the surrounding redwoods, repurposed materials from other historic Bay Area buildings, and, ultimately added 1,200 square feet of premium space without changing the footprint. When it when up for sale, it was the hottest home on the market, ultimately adding over 40% to the original asking price. The real secret: This was no "flip". It was a labor of love to honor the materials, the builder professionals, the building's remarkable setting and, ultimate, to connect the home with the perfect clients, clients who eventually said this in their offering letter: "We wouldn't change a thing. We absolutely loved everything about it."
