My Client wanted to dress up her existing blinds in the master bathroom with a custom window treatment. I designed an elegant valance with trimming and accent lining to compliment her shower curtain. She fell in with her new valance, and now wants a new shower curtain! I suggested custom since it's clearly the way to go.

Client had procured my services because she was unhappy with the layout designed by a previous firm. I needed to first confirm that this Client was willing to relocate appliances. When I heard YES - then I suggested to relocate the range and fridge. Sink in the corner had to stay. pure lee photography

Kirk Bianchi created the design for this residential resort next to a desert preserve. The overhang of the homes patio suggested a pool with a sweeping curve shape. Kirk positioned a raised vanishing edge pool to work with the ascending terrain and to also capture the reflections of the scenery behind. The fire pit and bbq areas are situated to capture the best views of the superstition mountains, framed by the architectural pergola that creates a window to the vista beyond. A raised glass tile spa, capturing the colors of the desert context, serves as a jewel and centerpiece for the outdoor living space.

The consultant from Betz suggested raising pool and deck to mitigate the change in grade of the sloping lot. The far side of the 16’ x 38’ custom vinyl pool, which is elevated three steps above the sports court, serves as a retaining wall. The sports court’s closely cropped artificial turf is ideal for basketball and soccer.

This bathroom was part of a whole house renovation from top to bottom. The basement was stage two of the project. We recommended to add a few design elements that would spruce it up. Our client Daniel loved the black and white so it was suggested to install a few key areas of white hexagons contrasted with the black in the floor. The white brick pattern tiles in the shower with dark grout also give it a rustic feel.

The clients were thrilled when we suggested removing a sink from their existing wet bar (which was rarely used) and moved the wet bar drain to the new laundry room, located on the backside of the wet bar.

The Cabinets AFTER:To mimic the glass-front cabinets I loved so much, Megan suggested a simple change: Remove the doors on the upper cabinets and fill them with new, simple glassware. With the cabinets’ interiors painted and the glassware in place, I sometimes forget that I don’t actually have the custom glass cabinetry. Photos by Lesley Unruh.

Aesthetic Value: Client required an upscale classical European look with minimalist features. Spiral became dramatic feature in customers home office. Stair Safety: All the local municipal codes were followed and met. Quality of Workmanship: Twelve sided mortised center column with minimalist engineered outside sawtooth stringer which is a very rare type of spiral stair. Technical Challenge: It was the owners lack of vision at beginning of project that challenged us to make numerous aesthetic suggestions and mock ups until owner finally feel in love with the sawtooth spiral with 12-sided column design.

This partially wooded, acre and a half lot in West Dundee presented many challenges. The clients began working with a Landscape Architect in the early spring, but after not getting the innovative ideas they were seeking, the home builder and Architect suggested the client contact our landscape design/build firm. We immediately hit it off with the charismatic clients. They had a tall order for us: complete the design and implement the construction within a three month period. For many projects this would be a reasonable time frame. However construction delays and the coordination of multiple trades left a very short window to complete the work. Beyond the tight time frame the site required specific care in preserving the many mature surrounding trees, as well as addressing a vast grade change. Over fifteen feet of grade change occurs from one end of this woodland property to the other. All of these constraints proved to be an enormous challenge as we worked to include and coordinate the following elements: the drive layout, a dramatic front entry, various gardens, landscape lighting, irrigation, and a plan for a backyard pool and entertainment space that already had been started without a clear plan. Fortunately, the client loved our design ideas and attention to detail and we were able to mobilize and begin construction. With the seamless coordination between our firm and the builder we implemented all the elements of this grand project. In total eight different crews and five separate trades worked together to complete the landscape. The completed project resulted in a rewarding experience for our firm, the builder and architect, as well as the client. Together we were able to create and construct a perfect oasis for the client that suited the beautiful property and the architecture of this dream home.
