Upon acquiring the property, the homeowner faced a compact backyard dominated by a neglected lawn that offered little usability. The ambition was not only to enhance the outdoor space's utility but to inject it with vibrant aesthetics and dynamism through the hardscape. To bring this vision to life, we embraced a palette of colorful materials, choosing multicolored concrete, pavers, and tiles that introduce a playful yet sophisticated charm. Further creativity was applied in the design through the use of curvy lines that flow organically throughout the space, leading the eye and inviting movement. Beach rocks were thoughtfully embedded into decorative bands, adding a tactile and visual texture that complements the curvilinear approach. This strategic combination of color, texture, and form transformed the backyard into a visually stimulating and highly functional outdoor living area.

This mid-century modern laundry room and mudroom combination in Oklahoma City showcases a playful yet highly functional design. We paired custom flat-panel cabinets in a vibrant avocado green with a matte black gooseneck faucet and a round under-mount sink. The retro geometric backsplash tile in shades of peach adds a warm, mid-century vibe, beautifully complemented by the durable speckled terrazzo flooring. To maximize functionality, we integrated a under-counter beverage cooler and a built-in pet door into the striking mustard yellow entryway door. Perfect inspiration for anyone looking to add bold color to a utility space, laundry room, or secondary kitchen prep area.

Waterstone Wheel faucet, The Galley bar workstation, quartzite full splash and mitered floating shelf. THE SETUP This project was a natural extension of a nearby kitchen remodel, emphasizing seamless integration and enhanced functionality. By removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room, we transformed a previously underutilized space into a central hub for both daily living and vibrant social gatherings. This transformation capitalized on the dining room’s potential, turning it from a cluttered storage area to a key entertaining space. Design Objectives: Foster an open-air design that harmonizes with the adjacent kitchen, enhancing the flow of both spaces. Infuse the dining room with design elements that reflect the client’s dynamic personality and make it ideal for large gatherings. Integrate a multifunctional wet bar to elevate the room’s utility and entertainment capacity. Design Challenges: Rerouting necessary HVAC ductwork due to the removal of the wall shared with the kitchen. Relocating essential appliances such as a fridge/freezer and double oven without compromising the room’s aesthetic. Incorporating bar-specific appliances in a way that avoids a commercial appearance. Retaining the client’s large, marble dining table while maintaining a cohesive design that aligns with the new kitchen aesthetics. Introducing plumbing into a space previously devoid of such infrastructure. THE RENEWED SPACE Design Solutions: Added a secondary HVAC unit on the upper floor and adjusted the ductwork to accommodate the open layout. Strategically relocated the fridge/freezer to a more functional location in the kitchen and substituted the double oven with an oven/steam oven combination, placed near the kitchen for accessibility yet distanced from heavy traffic areas. Employed wood paneling extensively along the new bar/appliance wall, concealing most appliances while tastefully displaying essential ones. The wall now features a sophisticated ensemble of a wine dispenser, wine fridge, ice maker, refrigerator drawers, and the new oven duo. Meticulously designed the bar/appliance wall to parallel the large marble dining table, ensuring it complemented the table’s grandeur while enhancing functionality. The wall is not only aesthetically aligned with the kitchen’s new look but also offers ample counter space to support dining and social activities at the table. Installed new plumbing lines to support the wet bar and sink installation, ensuring all new fixtures were fully operational and aesthetically integrated into the design without disrupting the room’s overall style. The new dining room/wet bar has quickly become the centerpiece of the home, captivating guests upon entry and drawing them into its stylish and inviting ambiance. Designed for versatility, it excels in hosting both intimate dinners and large-scale gatherings. The client is thrilled with this transformation, which not only meets but surpasses her expectations for a space that combines everyday functionality with exceptional hosting capabilities.

Steeped in history, this Historic Forest Park Carriage House underwent a transformative renovation to accommodate the evolving needs of its owners. Tasked with creating a vibrant ground floor space for a bike and training studio, our challenge lay in balancing preservation requirements with modern functionality. Preservation guidelines dictated that exterior details remain intact, posing a unique set of challenges as we sought to rejuvenate the structure. Crumbling stone pilasters and deteriorating windows and doors demanded meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship. Structural adjustments were made to support the load of the second-floor apartment, while new plumbing, electrical, and insulation were seamlessly integrated to enhance comfort and efficiency. The interior design embraced an industrial aesthetic, with exposed ceiling frames and polished concrete floors, lending a sense of character and authenticity to the space. Custom solutions, such as a tile pedestal for the utility sink and a double wall for bicycle storage, were implemented to maximize accessibility and durability. Replacement windows and doors, meticulously crafted to match historic details, preserved the integrity of the structure while enhancing functionality. Despite the challenges posed by preservation requirements, the Historic Forest Park Carriage House stands as a testament to the seamless integration of heritage preservation and modern design. Through careful planning and execution, we were able to breathe new life into this historic gem, creating a space that honors its past while embracing the needs of the present.

A boho-inspired house with an attached ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) combines eclectic charm with practical versatility. The open concept first floor of the main house features an array of vibrant textiles and plenty of greenery, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Earthy tones and natural materials, such as wood and rattan, dominate the interior, while colorful, patterned accent walls. The spacious layout is enhanced by a cozy breakfast bar in the kitchen and a stylish wet bar in the dining room, allowing for a seamless flow between living spaces. A gas fireplace, framed by artisanal tiles and surrounded by comfortable seating, adds warmth and serves as a central gathering point. Conveniently located off the kitchen is a functional laundry room, designed to blend with the bohemian aesthetic while providing essential utility.

A family that spends a lot of time in and around their beautiful saltwater pool, did not have a place in their home that provided them a visual or physical connection. They also lacked any storage for all their pool “stuff”. With small children and a love for entertaining, they needed a room that served and supported their watery lifestyle. We took over an empty and unused notch along the back of the house adjacent to the pool patio to create a new bright and airy pool house. The new out building attempts to unify 4 areas; an existing deck, an upper master bedroom balcony, a lower lawn, and the pool itself, and provide the missing storage. By locating the pool house at the juxtaposition of these areas, the new room was able to provide a new expanded rooftop balcony for the master, anchor and define the dining and barbeque deck, extend and connect to the pool and patio, and create a new access to integrate the lower lawn – and carve out the much needed storage for the variety of pool toys and equipment. The building itself is 400 sf with bath, laundry, storage, mechanical, kitchen, and living. A single new secure connection is made into the house through the existing mudroom. Clad with crisply detailed ship lap cedar, it draws on the existing material palate of the house and nods to the boat aesthetic in expression and efficiency. With pocketing glass walls the pool house is both the utility building needed, and an expansion of the vibrant pool scene itself, inside and outside, along the poolside.
