The word "basement" can conjur thoughts of dark, damp, unfriendly spaces. We were tasked with transforming one of those basements into a space kids couldn't wait to spend time. A trundle daybed anchors a cozy reading nook built for two, with enough bookshelves to keep any bookworm entertained. Dad's childhood kitchen invites culinary creativity, and a playful craft table does double duty as a snack station when friends come to play. The space caters to adults, as well, with a comfortable sectional to lounge on while the kids play, and plenty of storage in the "mud room" and wall of built-in cabinetry. Throw open the custom barn doors and the treadmill is perfectly positioned to catch your favorite show on the flat screen TV. It's a comfortable, casual family space where kids can be kids and the adults can play along.

Elongated white subway tiles are used in the floor-to-ceiling backsplash for a simple, casual look.
Vivid green kitchen cabinets with brass pulls and knobs against white subway tile backsplash create a fun and dynamic design along with a T shape eat in island. Warm wood floors infuse the room with warmth along with a wire brushed oak countertop connected to a Carrera marble countertop island. Bunker Hill green cabinets by Kelly Green compliments a black and white round wicker stool at the eat-in island that sits under a tiered chandelier. Stainless steel appliances such as a fridge, stove, and hood and a polished nickel faucet, add to the updated design.

Modern Retreat is one of a four home collection located in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The site, formerly home to the abandoned Kachina Elementary School, offered remarkable views of Camelback Mountain. Nestled into an acre-sized, pie shaped cul-de-sac, the site’s unique challenges came in the form of lot geometry, western primary views, and limited southern exposure. While the lot’s shape had a heavy influence on the home organization, the western views and the need for western solar protection created the general massing hierarchy.
The undulating split-faced travertine stone walls both protect and give a vivid textural display and seamlessly pass from exterior to interior. The tone-on-tone exterior material palate was married with an effective amount of contrast internally. This created a very dynamic exchange between objects in space and the juxtaposition to the more simple and elegant architecture.
Maximizing the 5,652 sq ft, a seamless connection of interior and exterior spaces through pocketing glass doors extends public spaces to the outdoors and highlights the fantastic Camelback Mountain views.

This home remodel is a celebration of curves and light. Starting from humble beginnings as a basic builder ranch style house, the design challenge was maximizing natural light throughout and providing the unique contemporary style the client’s craved.
The Entry offers a spectacular first impression and sets the tone with a large skylight and an illuminated curved wall covered in a wavy pattern Porcelanosa tile.
The chic entertaining kitchen was designed to celebrate a public lifestyle and plenty of entertaining. Celebrating height with a robust amount of interior architectural details, this dynamic kitchen still gives one that cozy feeling of home sweet home. The large “L” shaped island accommodates 7 for seating. Large pendants over the kitchen table and sink provide additional task lighting and whimsy. The Dekton “puzzle” countertop connection was designed to aid the transition between the two color countertops and is one of the homeowner’s favorite details. The built-in bistro table provides additional seating and flows easily into the Living Room.
A curved wall in the Living Room showcases a contemporary linear fireplace and tv which is tucked away in a niche. Placing the fireplace and furniture arrangement at an angle allowed for more natural walkway areas that communicated with the exterior doors and the kitchen working areas.
The dining room’s open plan is perfect for small groups and expands easily for larger events. Raising the ceiling created visual interest and bringing the pop of teal from the Kitchen cabinets ties the space together. A built-in buffet provides ample storage and display.
The Sitting Room (also called the Piano room for its previous life as such) is adjacent to the Kitchen and allows for easy conversation between chef and guests. It captures the homeowner’s chic sense of style and joie de vivre.

An original Ziegler Garage door design that has been one of our best selling and most talked about designs. The clean lines and square edges really shows the modern contemporary look and the stainless steel accent makes this door pop. This is what we call the modern 007, not only is this one of our best selling designs, it is also one of the most economical real wood doors in our product line. In order to accomplish this contemporary look we used a marine grade ply with a thick mahogany veneer for the wood base and then cut and folded stainless steel strips and embedded them into the face leaving this smooth seamless finish to this modern contemporary door and gate. Selecting a dark color stain for the wooden garage door made a fantastic contrast against the home's light white stucco and brick walls while pulling in some of the low slung roof tonalities.
We are the oldest original wood door manufacture in California dating back to its origination by Ziegler Sr. in 1968 we have always built our doors by paying special attention to the existing home's style and architectural elements. Creating a world-class garage door and gate combination that takes the natural modern architectural design of this home and embracing that same modern charm into our spectacularly built garage doors and pedestrian gates. Ziegler always delivers the best! 714-437-0870

This impressive detached building is located in the heart of the bustling Dundas West strip, and presents a unique opportunity for creative live + work space.
Designed by Kohn Shnier Architects, the building was completed in 2008 and has been owner-occupied ever since. Modern steel and concrete construction enable clear spans throughout, and the virtual elimination of bulkheads. The main floor features a dynamic retail space, that connects to a lower level with high ceilings – perfect as a workshop, atelier or as an extension of the retail.
Upstairs, a spacious loft-like apartment is spread over 2 floors. The mainfloor includes a decadent chef’s kitchen finished in Corian, with a large eat-at island. The combined living & dining rooms connect with a large south-facing terrace with exceptional natural light and neighbourhood views. Upstairs, the master bathroom features abundant built-in closets, together with a generous ensuite bathroom. A second open space is presently used as a studio, but is easily converted to a closed 2nd bedroom.
Parking is provided at the rear of the building, and the rooftop functions as a green roof. The finest materials have been used in this very special building, from anodized aluminium windows paired with black manganese brick, to high quality appliances and dual furnaces to provide adequate heating and fire separation between the retail and residential units.

The clients’ wish-list, for this mid-sized coastal master bathroom, was very specific. It was to have a light, airy, and open feeling; raised ceilings; a window in the shower area; a soaking tub; double sinks; inclusion of the clients’ stained-glass window; and specialty tile.
To create this light, airy, and open feeling, half of the old interior wall [hiding the old shower area] was removed. In its place, is an open shower. Water flows from a large rain showerhead mounted on the raised ceiling. The floor under the showerhead slopes, on all four sides, so that water can funnel into the floor drain. The shower window [with obscure glass, to bring in more light], shower bench, recessed-shampoo niche, and electronic temperature-control unit [on the wall panel] add to the shower’s ambiance and serviceability.
Unique details, that balance and enhance the dynamics of the bathroom, include: quartz solid-surface material on top of the shower bench, undermount tub, and undermount sinks’ counter-top; vintage-styled light fixtures over the two sinks; grey recessed-paneled linen and vanity cabinets, that compliment the white walls and vertical tiles; dark ceramic flooring; large-awning windows that swing open; pivot mirrors; a colorful-interior stained-glass window, that can be seen from both the new bath and adjacent master bedroom; and a specialty tile [of a person relaxing in a tub] positioned flush with the large-white wall tiles.
After seeing the original bathroom, it is hard to imagine, that this renovation includes all of the Broadwater’s wish list. They are more than satisfied with their new crisp, clean, airy space.

Scheurer Architects and Keller Homes designed a beautiful, award-winning community on a mountainous site located just outside Colorado Springs, Colorado. Their goal was to create something special by presenting fresh, new site plans within the local housing market while remaining sensitive to the traditions and benefits of rustic, mountain living. In order to remain true to the area in which the property is located, they made a joint effort to maintain the simple warmth and agricultural base found in the surrounding communities.
Three unique floor plans and living space designs were developed and had an average 2,667 square feet in size, with 2 bedrooms/2 bathrooms and full basements. There was a focus on indoor and outdoor living, reminiscent of historic village homes that were organized in clusters to maximize space, preserve views, and encourage spending time in nature.
Since the land was originally occupied by a dairy farm, the dynamic teams found existing stone on an old barn as well as retaining walls and wanted to incorporate these old stones into their new design. However, that meant that they needed to find just the right stone for the homes in an effort to blend the existing stone not only with the new stone, but also with stone that was being used for landscaping purposes. Eldorado’s blend of Fieldledge and Hillstone combined with the custom overgrout technique added the authenticity that the project called for.

Imagine a floor that seems to meld two entirely different materials - soft, sensual fabric and strong, solid wood. This gorgeous hardwood has a delicately sueded surface that actually feels soft to the touch. Each unique plank is hand-brushed with firm wire implements, which dig into the soft portions of the wood, leaving the harder minerals intact. The result is a new emphasis on the grain and the six color variations - the grain stands out dynamically, and the colors are enriched.

We special in custom residential designs ranging in size from modest renovations to large oceanfront homes. Our design style continues to seek unique aesthetic solution that reflect our clients tastes

For this project, we transformed the top floor of a Park Slope brownstone into a modern, lightfilled
home tailored to the needs of a busy couple. The original space was outdated and lacked
cohesion, so our design focused on creating a harmonious and functional layout that reflects the
clients’ lifestyle while introducing moments of drama and creativity.
At the heart of the penthouse is an open-concept dining room, living room, and kitchen. The
living room accommodates multiple areas, including a cozy seating nook illuminated by
multicolored glass pendant lights. A dramatic custom-built feature spans the entire length of the
living room, integrating storage, display areas, and a unique guardwall that separates the
staircase to the couple's rooftop garden from the living space. This built-in showcases a dynamic
geometric design, with select sections backed in soft mauve for depth and visual interest. Along
the front of the space, a bespoke oak window seat with modern slatted wood fronts conceals the
AC and radiators while providing ample storage. The main seating area centers around a creamy
marble fireplace surround, a refined focal point in the living area. Wide-plank oak flooring
extends throughout the apartment and up the staircase, where a minimal aesthetic enhances the
clean, modern feel.
The kitchen continues the theme of modern sophistication with a palette of soft white lacquered
lower cabinets and oak upper cabinetry. The countertops and backsplash are crafted from a
striking quartzite in cream, peach, and mauve tones, adding a subtle vibrancy to the space. A
cream-enameled range takes center stage, complemented by a hidden coffee station and a
dedicated cabinet for AV supplies, ensuring a clutter-free aesthetic.
The hall guest bathroom is a playful yet refined mix of materials and textures. Peach-toned
concrete tiles cover the walls, while the floor features cream zellige tiles. Brass fixtures, a brass
mirror, and a brass wall sconce lend a touch of warmth and luxury, harmonizing with the custom
pecan-veneered vanity and custom concrete sink,
The primary bedroom suite is a serene retreat, painted in a rich, deep blue that sets a calming
tone. Accessed through a bespoke millwork closet, the ensuite bathroom is a small yet striking
space, showcasing impeccable craftsmanship. The rear wall of the shower is clad in floor-toceiling
slabs of light blue quartzite, creating a dramatic focal point visible from the bedroom.
This quartzite extends seamlessly to form a sculptural bench within the shower, which transitions
outward into a custom sink. Beneath the sink, two wood drawers provide discreet storage. The
remaining walls are finished in soft beige Moroccan tadelakt plaster, adding a warm contrast to
the cool tones of the quartzite.
This Park Slope penthouse is a carefully curated blend of modern elegance and thoughtful
functionality, with bespoke details and rich materiality that celebrate both the character of the
space and the needs of its owners.

This structure is on the grounds of the project and uses the arched wood process to create the roof, windows and doors. This project was a redevelopment of a hotel suites into residential apartments by Shelter Dynamics, inc. The builder used boat-making skills and materials to create interesting and unique structures.
