The homeowners loved the lot this home sat on, but it lacked a garage and the exterior suffered from years of deferred maintenance before they purchased. With new siding, windows, roof, and an attached two-car garage addition with bonus room above, they have more living and storage space, and a clearly dedicated path to the front door — the addition also added a foyer. Corrugated metal accents add interest. The new screened porch is convenient to the pool and house. Photo by Liz Smutko

To create this semi-traditional kitchen, Art of Kitchens have taken a standard layout and combined Vivid White Polyurethane cabinets, white tiles and Calcutta marble tops to create a semi-traditional kitchen that is anything but average. A breakfast bar with minimalist black stools breaks up the cabinetry facing the living rooms, and offers the perfect position to take in the pristine white of the cabinets and tiles, the thick Calcutta marble tops and the traditional tapware and stainless steel appliances. Despite the open-plan space, the kitchen originally suffered from a lack of natural light. The owner wanted to keep the existing footprint, but also wanted a semi-traditional kitchen in keeping with the rest of the recently renovated apartment. The design team used white cabinets and tiles to enhance the light, and added Calcutta Marble tops and classic tapware to achieve some real wow factor in an otherwise traditional layout. As with all Art of Kitchen projects, design doesn’t stop at the kitchen door. The Calcutta marble tops and Vivid White cabinets are continued in the dining room, perfectly balancing the primary colours of the artwork above, and creating a lovely contrast to the dark wood of the floors. The result is a quality contemporary kitchen that will remain fresh for many years to come.

This charming house was built in 1924 with all the aspiration of the California transplants of that era - mimicking a traditional, English cottage built into the hillside of scenic Los Feliz. When our clients moved in, nearly 100 years later, the house was suffering from a poorly-built, 2006 addition which was a jumble of walls and bathrooms that also turned out to be a breeding ground for black mold. After careful remediation, the clients decided to make the most of the fact that their primary suite had been taken down to the studs by reconceiving the layout of the 300 sf wing to accommodate a generous new primary bathroom, walk-in closet and convertible home office / guest bedroom.

After years of suffering through a poorly designed kitchen that didn’t meet her needs, our client made the difficult decision to re-remodel her kitchen.

This backyard had tremendous issues from weather and wear. The original deck suffered from wood rot and some of the siding near the bay window was falling apart. There was also noticeable over spray from the deck staining that had been completed previously. All was completely fixed with a newly paved patio. Photography by Ashley Sullivan Exposurely
