A kitchen with sunlight and views to the beautiful surrounding woods. The house is set on 30 acres but the existing kitchen was stuck in the middle of the house and got very little natural light. The dining room was a formal separate room and didn't suit the client's lifestyle. The remodel opened up the kitchen and dining room to the adjacent sunroom and created spaces that flow together and open up views to bring in plentiful sunlight. The main feature of the remodeled kitchen is a large island that serves as a new family center.

With such a large family and such a broken-up kitchen/ entertainment space failed to meet this client's needs to successfully entertain for the holidays. She felt bad there was no place for people to sit and felt left out when she was stuck cooking in the kitchen. Blowing out the kitchen and completely opening the three seasons patio to make it into a heated/ cooled entertainment space is exactly what the client needs. Now they can enjoy the space year-round without any stress about fitting everyone in their home.

Designer Sarah Robertson of Studio Dearborn helped a neighbor and friend to update a “builder grade” kitchen into a personal, family space that feels luxurious and inviting. The homeowner wanted to solve a number of storage and flow problems in the kitchen, including a wasted area dedicated to a desk, too-little pantry storage, and her wish for a kitchen bar. The all white builder kitchen lacked character, and the client wanted to inject color, texture and personality into the kitchen while keeping it classic.

Example of a farmhouse staircase design in Birmingham

in the master bath i was stuck with a "utility" column from an upper condo unit but when the builders tore it up i found the plumbing stacks were only in the two walls on either side, so i made towels bins above, but below was not wide enough for just a cabinet door. so i made it a pullout with shelves for cleansers and such.

This master bathroom was stuck in the 1980's and was in need of major help. We reworked the space, replacing the dated and unused whirlpool tub with a tiled walk-in shower. The old fiberglass shower was removed to accommodate a separate water closet. New vanities, linen closet, counter tops, fixtures, lighting and mirrors complete the update.
