Visbeen ArchitectsForget just one room with a view—Lochley has almost an entire house dedicated to capturing nature’s best views and vistas. Make the most of a waterside or lakefront lot in this economical yet elegant floor plan, which was tailored to fit a narrow lot and has more than 1,600 square feet of main floor living space as well as almost as much on its upper and lower levels.

TRUE TO FORM DESIGNCrisp lines and soft wood tones are the key design elements in this simple two wall TV Display w/floating shelves. This was a repeat client that moved across town and really wished the previous TV Wall Unit/Bar would have fit in their new house so I gave the new project a similar theme on a smaller scale. Plenty of lower storage to house the A/V equipment and overflow from the dining room. The upper columns framing the TV also serve as secondary storage cabinets. The flanking floating shelves break the plain of the curved back panels that give this project some personality. The adjacent wall carries through with the same heights surrounding the existing painting

Dynia ArchitectsThis residence, sited above a river canyon, is comprised of two intersecting building forms. The primary building form contains main living spaces on the upper floor and a guest bedroom, workroom, and garage at ground level. The roof rises from the intimacy of the master bedroom to provide a greater volume for the living room, while opening up to capture mountain views to the west and sun to the south. The secondary building form, with an opposing roof slope contains the kitchen, the entry, and the stair leading up to the main living space.

Trout Design StudioThe new "U" shaped kitchen configuration with mirrored backsplashes and an open counter to the main living space, visually expand this new space to create a sense of generosity in this modest configuration. The upper wall cabinets were designed so Mrs. Kam, who has limited vertical reach, can easily access a lower tear of cabinets designed to provide for all the daily needs and storage, while a second upper tear expands the storage capacity of the kitchen for storage of dry goods, extra dishes and secondary use items. New cherry floors were added to compliment the new cherry kitchen cabinetry, unifying the wood elements in the space creating an expanded sense of the millwork component of the project.

Misiaszek Turpin pllcThis 4-acre site hosts three new structures, which include a large workshop, main residence and an independent art studio. Situated within a beautiful wooded environment, the edge of the site abuts a peaceful pond, which brought inspiration to the material and stylistic choices of the structures. The two-story barn is home to a complete workshop, equipped with the necessary machinery and a hearty wood storage space on the upper level. The timber frame structure was clad with stained shingles on the exterior and left with a light natural stain on the interior wood, bringing a light, warm atmosphere to the entire space.

Metropolis Drafting and Construction IncComplete overhaul of the common area in this wonderful Arcadia home.
The living room, dining room and kitchen were redone.
The direction was to obtain a contemporary look but to preserve the warmth of a ranch home.
The perfect combination of modern colors such as grays and whites blend and work perfectly together with the abundant amount of wood tones in this design.
The open kitchen is separated from the dining area with a large 10' peninsula with a waterfall finish detail.
Notice the 3 different cabinet colors, the white of the upper cabinets, the Ash gray for the base cabinets and the magnificent olive of the peninsula are proof that you don't have to be afraid of using more than 1 color in your kitchen cabinets.
The kitchen layout includes a secondary sink and a secondary dishwasher! For the busy life style of a modern family.
The fireplace was completely redone with classic materials but in a contemporary layout.
Notice the porcelain slab material on the hearth of the fireplace, the subway tile layout is a modern aligned pattern and the comfortable sitting nook on the side facing the large windows so you can enjoy a good book with a bright view.
The bamboo flooring is continues throughout the house for a combining effect, tying together all the different spaces of the house.
All the finish details and hardware are honed gold finish, gold tones compliment the wooden materials perfectly.

VisionScapesSet in the community of Eagle Ridge, this is a masterpiece of modern design and outdoor luxury. An exposed aggregate driveway complete with a secondary entrance was designed around the 50 to 60 year old birch tree in the front yard. The rebuilt and redesigned composite upper deck afforded an opportunity to create a space that was 100% waterproof below by using a torch on a membrane and a floating sleeper system for the upper deck. 10mm glass completes the expansive views of the backyard and the pool area. The two-sided gas fireplace offers unmatched ambiance in the hot tub with elegance in the covered sitting area directly on the adjacent side of the hot tub. The custom stainless steel spa is just steps from the expansive pool deck that surrounds the heated in ground pool. A large grass area surrounded by shrubs set in black mulch is the perfect contrast and finish this modern masterpiece.
