In addition to using natural light to great effect in the kitchen, the family also selected IKEA’s lighting system, using light bars for under the cabinets. “We love them. They provide plenty of light, and installation was quite simple,” he says. Unique pendant lighting hangs over the new extended island as well.According to Nathan, there were two main drivers for the new center island. “We wanted a place our three boys could work while my wife is cooking and we also love to host parties with 25-75 people so we wanted a large island to stage all of the food for serving,” he says. The island provides ample seating plus drawers for storage and outlets to charge phones or computers while the children are studying or for cooking equipment when preparing meals.

This innovative three-story staircase showcases engineering and design in perfect harmony. Each level cantilevers from two central spine beams, creating a floating effect that spans the entire vertical space. Thick dark-stained oak treads appear to hover without visible support, while the absence of risers maintains complete transparency. The defining feature is the glass landings at each level. Combined with the open-riser design, these transparent platforms allow natural light to cascade freely through the stairwell and into adjacent living areas. The result is an ultra-modern staircase that transforms vertical circulation into a study of light and space. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

I am proud to present New, Stylish, Practical, and just Awesome ) design for your new kid's room. Ta -da... The space in this room is minimal, and it's tough to have two beds there and have a useful and pretty design. This design was built on the idea to have a bed that transforms from king to two tweens and back with ease. I do think most of the time better to keep it as a single bed and, when needed, slide bed over and have two beds. The single bed will give you more space and air in the room. You will have easy access to the closet and a much more comfortable bed to sleep on it. On the left side, we are going to build costume wardrobe style closet On the right side is a column. We install some exposed shelving to bring this architectural element to proportions with the room. Behind the bed, we use accent wallpaper. This particular mural wallpaper looks like fabric has those waves that will softener this room. Also, it brings that three-dimension effect that makes the room look larger without using mirrors. Led lighting over that wall will make shadows look alive. There are some Miami vibes it this picture. Without dominating overall room design, these art graphics are producing luxury filing of living in a tropical paradise. ( Miami Style) On the front is console/table cabinetry. In this combination, it is in line with bed design and the overall geometrical proportions of the room. It is a multi-function. It will be used as a console for a TV/play station and a small table for computer activities. In the end wall in the hallway is a costume made a mirror with Led lights. Girls need mirrors ) Our concept is timeless. We design this room to be the best for any age. We look into the future ) Your girl will grow very fast. And you do not have to change a thing in this room. This room will be comfortable and stylish for the next 20 years. I do guarantee that ) Your daughter will love it!

The client: Mr & Mrs Warner I am thrilled with my blinds. They are unobtrusive when put away which was what I was looking for. I can see clearly through them in to the garden and I can protect myself from the heat and glare of the sun. The blinds help to provide a comfortable dining environment - they do exactly what I wanted them to do, and the best thing is they don’t need cleaning. The Brief: Mr and Mrs Warner were searching for stylish window dressings for the kitchen and study areas that offered ease of use and provided protection from the sun although did not block out the view of the garden. The Broadview solution: To maintain a sense of space, Broadview recommended the installation of blinds from the contemporary Luxaflex® Facette Shades collection. These pioneering new textile shades combine all of the practical functionality of traditional Venetian blinds with the elegance of soft fabrics. The unique 3D fabric features alternating, moveable layers of integrally woven transparent and opaque segments, allowing the user to raise or lower the shade to any height in either open or closed position. Hanging from a durable, elegant cassette rail, made to measure Facette shades have been fitted to cover seven windows of differing width and drop in the kitchen and one 2026mm by 1430mm window in the study. Operation is easy via slim, matt stainless steel chain. Luxaflex® Facette Shades are available in 16 colours, and ‘beach beige’ was selected for the kitchen and ‘cappuccino’ was selected for the study installation. The soft, stylish fabric is made of high quality fire retardant 100% Trevira CS yarn. The results: With alternating vanes of opaque and translucent woven fabric, the Facette® Shades create a unique soft effect allowing light to penetrate gently into the home. The clean, space-saving design offers the convenience of a shade, complemented by the beautifully understated elegance of textile composition.Sliding the opaque and translucent sections past one another enables Mr and Mrs Warner to enjoy the full spectrum of light as well as control privacy at their fingertips.
