This kitchen was designed for the MAXIMALIST in mind. A homeowner who enjoys displaying all their antiques and chosen novelties from all over the world. No space was to be left untouched. Special attention was designed around custom detail beaded inset cabinetry, walnut countertops, polished lacquered bar with a tribute to their Naval background. Even the refrigerator is to be displayed through the glass

Nestled in the heart of Denver's historic Park Hill neighborhood, Park Hill Haus is a complete luxury home renovation and interior design project that reimagines a 1946 residence into a refined yet deeply livable family retreat. Designed for two medical professionals seeking sanctuary from demanding careers, this full-scale transformation was guided by a vision of creating a home that feels elevated, peaceful, and effortlessly welcoming. Every inch of the home was thoughtfully redesigned and renovated from top to bottom, with no detail overlooked. While the residence underwent a comprehensive modernization, great care was taken to preserve the character and architectural heritage that make Park Hill homes so beloved. The result is a seamless blend of old and new—a modern transitional home that honors its roots while embracing contemporary luxury living. Inspired by the clients' love of international travel and iconic luxury fashion houses, the interiors draw subtle influence from the timeless sophistication of Chanel. Layered textures, restrained elegance, and carefully curated materials create a sense of understated luxury that feels both aspirational and approachable. Rather than designing a home that feels formal or untouchable, the goal was to create spaces that invite connection, comfort, and everyday enjoyment. Throughout the home, a palette of warm neutrals and earthy tones establishes a calming foundation. Natural materials, rich textures, and globally inspired details reflect the clients' travels around the world, adding depth, personality, and a collected feel to each space. The design balances refinement with warmth, creating an environment that feels luxurious without ever feeling cold. Family-centered living was at the heart of every design decision. Gathering spaces were thoughtfully planned to support both intimate moments and effortless entertaining, while private areas provide a serene retreat for rest and restoration. The home's atmosphere evokes the feeling of a boutique luxury hotel layered with the comfort and authenticity of a well-loved family home. Park Hill Haus stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful luxury interior design—where heritage architecture, modern functionality, and worldly inspiration come together to create a home that is timeless, inviting, and uniquely personal.

This project is one of the most extensive TVL scopes to date! This house sits in a phenomenal site location in Golden and features a number of incredible and original architectural details. However, years of shifting had caused massive structural damage to the home on both the main and basement levels, resulting in shifting door frames, split drywall, and sinking floors. These shifts prompted the clients to seek remodeling assistance in the beginning of their renovation adventure. At first, the scope involved a new paint and lighting scheme with a focus on wall repair and structural improvement. However, the scope eventually evolved into a re-design of the entire home. Few spaces in this house were left untouched, with the remodeling scope eventually including the kitchen, living room, pantry, entryway and staircase, master bedroom, master bathroom, full basement, and basement bedrooms and bathrooms. Expanding the scope in this way allowed for a design that is cohesive space to space, and creates an environment that captures the essence of the family's persona at every turn. There are many stunning elements to this renovation, but a few favorites include the insanely gorgeous custom steel elements at the front entry, Tharp custom cabinetry in the kitchen and pantry, and unique stone in just about every room of the house. Our clients for this project are both geologists. This alone opened an entire world of unique interest in material that we have never explored before. From natural quartzite countertops that mimic mountain ranges to silky metallic accent tiles behind the bathtub, this project does not shy away from unique stone finds and accents. Conceptually, the clients' love for stone and natural elements is present just about everywhere: the dining room chandelier conceptually takes the form of stalactite, the island pendants are formed concrete, stacked stone adorns the large back wall of the shower, and a back-lit onyx art piece sits in a dramatic niche at the home's entry. We love the dramatic result of this renovation and are so thrilled that our clients can enjoy a home that truly reflects their passions for years to come!

The owners of this wooded property on Whidbey Island came to H2D Architecture + Design with a vision to build a high-performance compact new home on the site. The goal of the design was to limit the impact and footprint on the site in order to maintain as many of the trees as possible. A select number of trees were removed to accommodate the new driveway, house and shed location, and a small yard area. The remainder of the site has been left untouched to remain a wooded sanctuary around the home. The home design was developed around a desire for creating only the minimum amount of space necessary for this family of two. The final design is a one-story home with approximately 1350 sf including two bedrooms, two bathrooms, laundry, storage, mechanical, and open living area. The open living area has a vaulted ceiling, wall of windows looking out to the yard, and connection directly out to a covered patio area. The structure of the home was designed to be built with SIPS (Structurally Insulated Panel System). Both the walls and roof were built with the SIPS panels creating a highly energy efficient building envelope. The cabinetry in the home was built by the homeowner. + Architecture: H2D Architecture + Design + Interior Design: H2D Architecture + Design www.h2darchitects.com + Green Consultantation and Built by: Zero Energy Homes and Clifton View Homes + Photography: Anastasiya Homes

Originally built in 1970, this later-model Eichler—designed by architect Claude Oakland—features a distinctive “Model 14” roofline with a clipped gable, a subtle nod to the charm of English thatch-roof cottages. Acquired from the original owner, the home remained in untouched, original condition—offering a rare opportunity for restoration, but also presenting an urgent need for updates. Our approach was grounded in respect for Oakland’s original design intent, while thoughtfully incorporating essential upgrades to meet modern building codes and today’s lifestyle expectations. Eichler homes were originally built using modest, cost-effective materials to make modern architecture accessible to the growing mid-century middle class. While iconic, elements like laminate countertops, particle board cabinetry, and vinyl composition tile flooring haven’t stood the test of time. We carefully replaced these with more durable, high-quality alternatives—granite countertops, maple-ply cabinets, and luxury vinyl tile—ensuring the home remains true to its spirit while standing strong for decades to come.

This 'playhouse' has a beautiful lake view. The exterior is stained natural to highlight the cedar siding. The arched windows and decorative timber trusses are key architectural details. The Muskoka bedrock landscaping was left untouched.

Gorgeous ensuite bathroom in a new home. With a basketweave marble tile path leading you throughout the space, from the water closet to the sauna, this bathroom leaves no details untouched. We mixed marble with affordable porcelain tile that looks like marble to achieve a high end look. Dark cabinets, freestanding tub, walk in shower and a gas fireplace complete this stunning bathroom that is an open layout space with the master bedroom.

Project: Residential interior refurbishment Site: Kensington, London
 Designer: Deik (www.deik.co.uk) Photographer: Anna Stathaki Floral/prop stylish: Simone Bell We have also recently completed a commercial design project for Café Kitsuné in Pantechnicon (a Nordic-Japanese inspired shop, restaurant and café). Simplicity and understated luxury The property is a Grade II listed building in the Queen’s Gate Conservation area. It has been carefully refurbished to make the most out of its existing period features, with all structural elements and mechanical works untouched and preserved. The client asked for modest, understated modern luxury, and wanted to keep some of the family antique furniture. The flat has been transformed with the use of neutral, clean and simple elements that blend subtly with the architecture of the shell. Classic furniture and modern details complement and enhance one another. The focus in this project is on craftsmanship, handiwork and the use of traditional, natural, timeless materials. A mix of solid oak, stucco plaster, marble and bronze emphasize the building’s heritage. The raw stucco walls provide a simple, earthy warmth, referencing artisanal plasterwork. With its muted tones and rough-hewn simplicity, stucco is the perfect backdrop for the timeless furniture and interiors. Feature wall lights have been carefully placed to bring out the surface of the stucco, creating a dramatic feel throughout the living room and corridor. The bathroom and shower room employ subtle, minimal details, with elegant grey marble tiles and pale oak joinery creating warm, calming tones and a relaxed atmosphere.

Before photo: This is the rear before the addition. We met with the historic review board. One of their requests was to leave the 2nd story enclosed sleeping porch untouched. Our designer fit the 1st floor addition under the sunroom. The addition is modest at 96 square feet, but was enough to expand and update the original pink kitchen!

You don't have to own a big celebrity mansion to have a beautifully appointed house finished with unique and special materials. When my clients bought an average condo kitted out with all the average builder-grade things that average builders stuff into spaces like that, they longed to make it theirs. Being collectors of colorful Fiesta tableware and lovers of extravagant stone, we set about infusing the space with a dose of their fun personality. There wasn’t a corner of the house that went untouched in this extensive renovation. The ground floor got a complete make-over with a new Calacatta Gold tile floor, and I designed a very special border of Lunada Bay glass mosaic tiles that outlines the edge of every room. We ripped out a solid walled staircase and replaced it with a visually lighter cable rail system, and a custom hanging chandelier now shines over the living room. The kitchen was redesigned to take advantage of a wall that was previously just shallow pantry storage. By opening it up and installing cabinetry, we doubled the counter space and made the kitchen much more spacious and usable. We also removed a low hanging set of upper cabinets that cut off the kitchen from the rest of the ground floor spaces. Acquarella Fantasy quartzite graces the counter surfaces and continues down in a waterfall feature in order to enjoy as much of this stone’s natural beauty as possible. One of my favorite spaces turned out to be the primary bathroom. The scheme for this room took shape when we were at a slab warehouse shopping for material. We stumbled across a packet of a stunning quartzite called Fusion Wow Dark and immediately fell in love. We snatched up a pair of slabs for the counter as well as the back wall of the shower. My clients were eager to be rid of a tub-shower alcove and create a spacious curbless shower, which meant a full piece of stone on the entire long wall would be stunning. To compliment it, I found a neutral, sandstone-like tile for the return walls of the shower and brought it around the remaining walls of the space, capped with a coordinating chair rail. But my client's love of gold and all things sparkly led us to a wonderful mosaic. Composed of shifting hues of honey and gold, I envisioned the mosaic on the vanity wall and as a backing for the niche in the shower. We chose a dark slate tile to ground the room, and designed a luxurious, glass French door shower enclosure. Little touches like a motion-detected toe kick night light at the vanity, oversized LED mirrors, and ultra-modern plumbing fixtures elevate this previously simple bathroom. And I designed a watery-themed guest bathroom with a deep blue vanity, a large LED mirror, toe kick lights, and customized handmade porcelain tiles illustrating marshland scenes and herons.

Step into the captivating mid-century-styled living room of this home, where sophistication meets comfort. A large reflector chandelier sets the tone and highlights the existing wood panel and beamed ceiling. Stacked stone fireplace, left untouched, now seamlessly blends with the room, while the replacement of three separate windows with black-framed stacking slider doors brings a modern architectural element, facilitating indoor-outdoor entertainment. Clean lines and thoughtful touches, like leather patches on custom swivel chairs and a modern dark wood coffee table, provide subtle elegance. With a contemporary and welcoming design, this living room is an ideal space for relaxation and gatherings.

This was a whole home renovation where nothing was left untouched. We took out a few walls to create a gorgeous great room, custom designed millwork throughout, selected all new materials, finishes in all areas of the home. We also custom designed a few furniture pieces and procured all new furnishings, artwork, drapery and decor.

An untouched kitchen for 18 years was transformed into a light and airy space for the client to prepare meals in. A cozy corner nook was created for client to relax and watch TV (wall mounted flat screen). Custom cabinetry including custom solution for hidden recycling bins was incorporated. 24' x 24' porcelain tiles give the space a more airy feel.

A Lovely 1100 sq. bungalow in the heart of Silverlake stood untouched for almost half a century. This home as built was a 2 bedrooms + 1 bathroom with a good size living room. Client purchased it for the sake of turning it into a rental property. With a few good internal twists and space planning we converted this little bungalow into a full blown 3bed + 2.5 bath with a master suite. All of this without adding even 1 square inch to the building. Kitchen was moved to a more central location; a portion of a closet was converted into a powder room and the old utility room/laundry was turned into the master bathroom.

Renovation and expansion of a 1930s-era classic. Buying an old house can be daunting. But with careful planning and some creative thinking, phasing the improvements helped this family realize their dreams over time. The original International Style house was built in 1934 and had been largely untouched except for a small sunroom addition. Phase 1 construction involved opening up the interior and refurbishing all of the finishes. Phase 2 included a sunroom/master bedroom extension, renovation of an upstairs bath, a complete overhaul of the landscape and the addition of a swimming pool and terrace. And thirteen years after the owners purchased the home, Phase 3 saw the addition of a completely private master bedroom & closet, an entry vestibule and powder room, and a new covered porch.

The project involved renovating the Kitchen, the only room untouched by a prior remodel of the home. The Clients asked us to impart the space with a classical, traditional flare, and to fill it with natural light. They also asked us to make it warm and welcoming, and light in color but not stark. To accomplish the Clients’ goals we designed cabinets with simple but elegant detailing in a combination of off-white glazing and natural dark stain; a coffered ceiling with leaded glass panels over the island which allow the kitchen to be bathed in natural light from skylights above; and a rich fusion of natural slate flooring and granite and wood countertops. To break the formality of the strict “kitchen” formula, we also introduced a free-standing, custom-made bar cabinet to separate the Kitchen and Sitting Room, and a hutch cabinet which opens up into a desk. photos- Jonathan Katz
