This homeowner was ready to say goodbye to what they called the “art gallery tunnel” — the long hallway you had to pass through just to reach the kitchen and living room. Their goal was to open up the space and create a larger, more functional kitchen with a full remodel.
To start the transformation, we removed the hallway completely, expanding the kitchen and creating a much more open flow. We also squared off and widened the archway entrances, helping the kitchen connect seamlessly with the surrounding living spaces.
Before construction began, we carefully de-installed the existing LVP flooring and leveled the entire floor. The flooring had previously been installed over multiple layers of older flooring, which left the surface uneven. Once the remodel was complete, we reinstalled the LVP throughout the home — except for the master bedroom, which received new carpet. This approach also allowed us to reuse the flooring in the newly expanded kitchen areas.
The new kitchen design features beautiful perimeter cabinetry that extends around the corner into the dining area, where we created a dedicated appliance wall. A standout feature is the 48-inch-wide appliance garage cabinet, which we customized with floating shelves for both style and functionality. At the center of the space, we installed a large island designed to maximize the slab size and create the perfect gathering place.
In the pantry, we built custom wood shelving and installed a new door featuring a customer-supplied stained glass window — a unique and personal touch. We also updated all the lighting in the kitchen, living room, and bathroom to complement the new layout, adding recessed task lighting and pendant fixtures.
To complete the transformation, we installed elegant 7-inch crown molding along the high ceilings in the entryway, kitchen, and living room — adding a beautiful finishing detail to the newly opened space.
The result is a bright, spacious home with a kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining.

Every once in a while, a project comes along that doesn’t just meet expectations—it resets the standard. That’s exactly what happened at Upper Valley project, where the team at GoDesigns El Paso was entrusted with a blank canvas and turned it into a fully integrated luxury retreat, built with precision, purpose, and passion. At the core of this dream backyard is a custom-designed pool and spa, meticulously planned and built together. The pool glows with a Pebble Brilliance finish, its deep, vibrant tones shimmering under sunlight by day and glowing softly under water-lit skies at night. Lightstreams glass tile adds a jewelry-like elegance to the raised spa and the sun shelf, creating rich reflections and textures from every angle. That sundeck isn’t just for lounging—it’s a tactile, thoughtful experience. Designed with Lightstreams glass tile, it’s where kids play, grownups cool off, and everyone can dip their toes and soak their feet in style. It’s as inviting to walk across as it is to sit beside, offering both elegance and functionality. A standout design element is the set of custom stainless steel handrails, elegantly curved and installed with sculptural intent. Not only are they beautiful, but they’re also built to last—resistant to corrosion, timeless in design, and made for safety without sacrificing aesthetics. While beauty was key, so was resilience. The entire project was engineered to meet 100-year flood zone requirements—a critical design element in this El Paso neighborhood. GoDesigns accounted for water flow, elevations, and structural integrity, ensuring that every footing, drainage channel, and grade slope works in harmony with nature. And there’s more than water to love here. The oversized mossrock boulder waterfall along the edge of the putting green is both functional and artistic. Designed as a “table rock” feature, it creates soothing sound and visual movement while anchoring the landscape’s natural side. It’s a conversation piece as much as a sensory experience. Just steps away is a personal putting green and a custom basketball half court, both thoughtfully illuminated for day-to-night enjoyment. The putting green rolls true, edged with boulders and sand pits, while the court boasts pro-level surfacing under bright, architectural pole lighting. The surrounding landscape design ties it all together. Carefully chosen plantings bring color, texture, and balance to the clean stonework and turf areas. Strategic lighting highlights not just the beauty of the plants, but also enhances safety, drama, and ambiance across the entire yard—including the fence lines, water features, and sports zones. Every inch of this Upper Valley Project was built for purpose, performance, and passion. It’s a space where families gather, grand kids play, and memories are made—all under the sun and stars of West Texas. This is what happens when GoDesigns El Paso gets to do what they do best: combine timeless design, elite materials, and masterful installation to create outdoor living environments that are not only beautiful, but unforgettable.
