This young family had a virtually empty formal living room except for a great geometric shag rug in it. We used the rug and created a 'bar room' suitable for a young family. The adults could entertain in this space and easily transition to new formal dining room that is more relaxed than the previous space. We added all new furniture in the bar room and dining room, a new rug in the dining room, new dramatic paint, and capped off the space with custom window treatments.

Cabinets, counter top and flooring were all upgraded to transform an ordinary kitchen to match the rest of this elegant home. John at Village Cabinet Design suggested adding a door between the kitchen and a small unused office off the adjacent hallway to give the homeowner a much needed pantry as well as a cubby space in the hallway for an attractive yet easy way to keep clutter under control.

This yard was unusable by the resident grownups and unsafe for their kids who wished they had a place to retreat from city hazards. We refurbished the crumbling concrete retaining wall at the bottom. built another wall above that using dry-stacked broken concrete pieces, and a third wall at the top using decorative dry-stacked cement blocks. Between the upper two walls, we carved out a space for a patio, which we paved with Mediterranean style pavers. At the patio's front edge, we built a safety railing of redwood and vertical steel tubes, which gave it a classy look.
