After: Dressing up the panels by hanging art from the ceiling tracks really did the trick to make the installation look like a wall. I also added a pendant lamp in the corner for much needed lighting and ambiance. The next phase of the makeover will be to upgrade the existing window treatments.

This alcove, recessed into the garage is not full-height because of the garage door tracks. So we trick the eye. See the next photo.

As shown, Hunter Douglas Heritance hardwood shutters on sliding glass doors. These shutters are on a bypass track system so that you can move the entire panel over one another for easy access to the outdoors. A nice trick is to make one panel a rear tilt and one panel a front tilt. This way, when they are in front of each other, you can still open the louvers on each for a slightly unobstructed view.

“I have a big ask,” wrote this Berkeley, California, homeowner, explaining that she wanted a yard where her young children could spend as much time outdoors as possible, but she also envisioned a garden that would feel like an extension of the small bungalow-style house, which offered little space for entertaining and hanging out. She wanted to keep the front yard open to the street and inviting, while also creating a bit of privacy for a dining area in the front window that felt too exposed. With lots of DIY experience and skills, this family was ready to roll up their sleeves and install a new landscape, but they knew that before they started, they needed some expert design help. An online search brought them to Home Outside. The Home Outside designer studied their goals and preferences and created a landscape design in which the front yard is partially screened by a flower garden and a fence that swoops upward to form an arbor over the front walkway. The existing wooden deck is extended to accommodate dining, while a pea-stone terrace with firepit forms an outdoor living room, with space for the potted plants the owner loves. A lattice-topped fence creates privacy and offers a vertical surface for lush vines to grab onto—a great trick for a small property. A corner of the yard is dedicated to children’s play, with a round lawn, play structure, and secret hiding places under the shrubbery. Finally, we recommended that they turn their driveway into a sustainable “garden” by laying pervious concrete planks for the tire tracks, with low groundcover plants along the center strip and repurposed brick (already on site) to walk upon. The homeowner wrote to Home Outside to say, “We love how it is turning out, and several of our friends have commented that it is like stepping into a yard out of Sunset magazine. The design investment and the hard work have been one of the most transformative and positive projects we have taken on.”

The 3-second spa trick designers love ? Boca Raton bathroom refresh: translucent roller shades give full privacy without killing the daylight. We custom-built a paint-matched wood valance so the corner looks seamless and set the shades to reverse-roll, tightening the corner meet for a near-zero light gap. Powered by Somfy battery motors (wire-free, whisper-quiet, safe, easy recharge) so you tap once and relax while the tub fills. Why it works: • Bright, airy light, no “cave” effect • Moisture-friendly fabric ideal for baths • Clean, minimalist lines with hidden hardware • Remote/app control + simple scheduling Designers in South Florida ? We handle measure, fabrication, & white-glove install from start to finish. DM “Boca Bath” to collaborate or book a site visit.

At Craft-Bilt we call this a hat trick! This project features our Skyview translucent patio cover, Craft-Bilt glass railing, and 4 Track Stacking Windows. The second-floor patio cover was actually built a couple of years ago, and the client asked Haight's Carpentry to come back and enclose the area underneath the deck.
