The owners of this beautiful home and property discovered the talents of the Fred Parker Company "Design-Build" team on Houzz.com. Their dream was to restore and renovate an old barn into a new guest house and to design and build an elaborate outdoor kitchen (See Separate Houzz Project- "Rustic-Luxe" Guest House- Barn Renovation ). The elaborate “Gourmet” Outdoor-Kitchen was designed and built to be utilized with their existing outdoor living and swimming areas. The husband loved outdoor cooking and wanted to fully incorporate all the latest accessories which included a stone pizza oven, gas grill, smoker, refrigerator, sink, storage, and leathered granite countertops. The structure was architecturally designed to blend with the existing residence, which included plaster stucco finish, steep pitch hip roof with turned overhang, custom metal gutters, and 12’ ceilings with decorative ceiling beams.

We worked with the talented Katie Porter of KP Design studio to help bring her design of this bedroom set to life. The Bed is made of solid Ash wood finished with a rich dark brown which is a lovely contrast to the lighter colors in the finished space. The headboard is constructed with floating mortise and tenon joinery to ensure its stability over time. The framed upholstery makes for a nice place to settle in for some night time reading or catch up on favorite TV shows. The frame of the bed is connected by solid hardwood slats with a center brace and legs to ensure a nice firm platform for the mattress. The base of the bed is recessed behind the outer frame to give the bed the appearance of floating when you are standing in the room. It is a subtle but fun little detail we enjoyed about the design. We are thrilled with the look of this bed and bedroom set! Our only regret is that we didn't get more pictures of the details!

It was important not to interrupt the dynamic of this home's historic Church Hill neighborhood, and so all the exterior changes were kept to the back of the house, with the front remaining mostly unchanged. Although the front of the house doesn’t give away its secrets, the back of the house is an unexpected but delightful surprise. Embracing the new rear addition is the home’s original brick wall. Architectural design as well as Commission of Architectural Review requirements put a lot of emphasis on keeping the original masonry intact, which was no small feat. It took a lot of planning, some delicate demolition and talented carpentry to ensure this piece of history remained. In addition to the brick wall, other original aspects of the home were carefully preserved including the windows, floors and much of the trim work. Meanwhile all new, modern plumbing and fixtures were installed and custom cabinetry with inset routed “handles” were fabricated by Polosko Woodworks. Inside the home is even more appreciation of the original masonry with exposed brick walls in the primary bath.

The Branch residence is a private home located on Bassi Ranch, designed for Clifford and Lynette Branch. The California Coastal design incorporated stucco, stone, and steel. Soaring volumes and intricate detailing merge the talents of the architect, Steven Puglisi, with the owner’s desire for a timeless design that effortlessly nestles into the landscape. “The Bassi Ranch development consists of 24 residences located within a 220 acre parcel in Avila Valley, approximately six miles from San Luis Obispo. As the original developer of the project in the mid 1990s, my wife and I desired to have our own residence constructed on one of the parcels. The site we selected in Bassi Ranch had a wonderful view but the designated building envelope was steep and it appeared that there was very little “usable” land. I had previously worked with Mr. Puglisi on commercial projects, and again turned to Mr. Puglisi for our residential design work, as I had long-admired other residences that his firm had created. What impressed me most was that Steve and his staff listened carefully to our personal ideas and came back with a design that surpassed our expectations. Suffice to say, we are very happy campers.” - Cliff Branch

Nancy "Soheil and his wonderful crew did a kitchen refresh for us - new quartz countertops, backsplash, lighting, installation of new appliances, which required some reconfiguration of the spaces for them. The work is beautiful, and everyone involved was a skilled tradesman, and friendly and on time every time. The communication between everyone on the team, and with us was outstanding - each trade knew when the other had been there, or would be there, and were completely up-to-date on what each had done or would be doing. Soheil has a strong team of talented and friendly people. When it was time to gut (to the studs) our master bathroom, we only considered Canadian Homestyle to do the work. This time Sareh led the project, and our experience was exactly the same - strong and frequent communication, skilled and friendly trades, always on time, and Sareh really listened to us, and made us feel that our wants and opinions were valued, while adding her own expertise to help us make the best choices of materials and changes. We can't say enough about working with Canadian Homestyle. A+++++++ !!!!!!!"

Abigail Gervais, photographer. Modern + Antique=authentic. For the dining area, I suggested built in bookshelves to flank the only window. Bright white kept the room airy and matches the white kitchen cabinets (not shown). We maximized both storage and display opportunities. Very talented carpenters navigated the baseboard heaters (I am still impressed). For this room I pulled together a palette of lavender, purple and aqua. We moved an antique rug into the space and the deeper purple tones are accentuated by painter Tom DePaul's "Conversations". The focal point of the room is "Fine Arts Quartet Sequence". by Sante Fe artist Frank Ettenberg. He painted this while listening to Shostakovich's string quartets and if you look closely you can see music stands within painting. He was only willing to sell all 6 together as they correspond with different movements in the music.

Concrete Wall Plaster - "Venetian Concrete" Huntington Beach, California Interior Designer, Rona Graf of Grace Blu Designs This office space/studio for a well-known photographer was transformed by the very talented Rona Graf of Grace Blu Designs. She wanted the side wall as a gallery-style focal wall as a backdrop to the photographer's artwork in her studio office. This project became what we call an "Intention Wall" as we encouraged the owner/photographer to write down her dreams and intentions all over the wall previous to our starting the artwork. The vibrational imprint of all she desired to accomplish in this space, and in life, was the foundation of our concrete wall finish, and built upon by the Artist, Jacqueline Coburn, with every trowel mark and brushstroke. Talk about transformational and inspiring!

This property in Rosedale was completed in phases over a three year period. Many quality professionals were involved in the planning and construction of this project. Pro-Land was given the opportunity to design and install phase one of this property in 2014. This included the main patio, deck, feature walls, planting beds and outdoor kitchen area. The homeowner then reached out to Janet Rosenberg & Studios in 2016 to complete a Garden Renovation, which included a new pool, a spa hot tub, green house and perimeter planting design. Pro-Land began construction of phase two in 2016 and completed works in 2017. Finally, the homeowner brought her own expertise in design to contribute to the overall composition of the space. A true collaborative effort from many talented professionals made this project a success.

This recently retired chef and candy maker requested a brightened and open kitchen in her 1960’s condo. Most important to the customer was to enlarge and maximize the kitchen’s workspace, so she could now enjoy her talents in her own home. Due to the cement condo construction, some preliminary minor demo was required so we knew exactly what design options she had for the new kitchen. Most importantly, we opened up the kitchen by removing the wall separating it from the living and dining areas. A large island was a must so the homeowner could roll out her delicious homemade caramels. The island would also house a wine and open bookcase end for a relaxing, cozy feel.
