Photography by John Gibbons This 28 unit project consists of four seven unit multi-family homes just two blocks away from Sloan’s Lake. The design takes advantage of city and mountain views while gathering around a private urban park and garden. The genesis of the project creates a community within the neighborhood. This project is designed for LEED Gold certification, is solar ready, and utilizes a district geothermal (ground source) heat-pump system for mechanical heating and cooling .

We recently finished this landscape design and installation project in the Tanglewood neighborhood of Houston, Texas. Our client, a Louisiana native who loves entertaining and wanted to stay connected to her NOLA roots, desired a space that could comfortably accommodate 30+ guests on a regular basis. We deliberately designed the outdoor kitchen without a cover to preserve the view of the magnificent oak trees. Our aim was to create a kitchen that is both durable and visually appealing. The countertop is made of leathered granite, a material that can withstand the unpredictable Texas weather. All the appliances, including the grill, refrigerator, sink, and double side burner, were locally sourced and are made of stainless steel. Additionally, we utilized Austin limestone, which was quarried right here in Texas. To infuse a touch of New Orleans charm into the backyard, we incorporated a fountain. The surrounding black star gravel was designed as a versatile space that can be used for additional dining, seating, or even as a meditation area. To ensure privacy and shade as the plants mature, we strategically planted Eaglestone Holly and Japanese Yew along the fence line. Completing the landscape, we selected Amerishade grass for its excellent shade tolerance.

Master bath redesign and remodel by Advance Design Studio. A note from the designer on this project: I love the combination of the Acacia Haze painted cabinetry from Bridgewood. The unique flat double shaker door style is a fan favorite! The classic black hex was utilized in both a large and mosaic format in the space which creates understated drama and continuity in the design. The show stopper is the slab porcelain walls by Stile by MSI in Statuario Polished! Super low maintenance with one slab per wall and a custom framed niche!! This material offers the elegance of marble without the porosity and grout lines! The client opted for a sandblasted privacy stripe, and a modern lighted mirror which provides amazing light as a primary light source. Some cool features include its color temperature adjustability, dimmable option and fog-free aspect keeping your mornings flowing! Delta has introduced a pull-down faucet that allows for easy cleanup of your vanity bowl! The bidet seat is now a common stream request! One of my favorite clients now has a space deserving of her beauty!

This unique home is located on a ridge with fantastic views to the rugged Gore Range from one side and down a dramatic ravine on the other. While the home resembles a European castle, it is interpreted in a modern way and utilizes the latest in building technology. The stone on the front facade is Colorado sourced granite. The main level features a very private master suite and study.

We created a contemporary aesthetic & design that will withstand the test of time to create an inviting and serene space throughout for our clients. First, we replaced their flooring with a wide plank oak flooring, expanded existing standard doors to soaring black steel framed doors and painted Sherwin Williams West Highland White throughout. The powder bath and laundry room were also given a complete renovation with new tile, cabinetry, plumbing, lighting and fixtures. As renovations took place, we began sourcing furnishings, linens, lighting and more. We utilized a neutral palette and use of mixed finishes to each space includes various textures such as linen, wool, boucle, leather & wood to create a symbiotic sense of unity.

The Sleek Hermosa Beach Exterior Renovation was designed to give the homeowners a modern and durable update that could withstand the coastal weather. The project included installing new energy-efficient windows that not only improved the home's curb appeal but also helped with insulation and noise reduction. We applied smooth stucco to create a sleek, contemporary look while enhancing the property's overall resilience. To further protect the home, we implemented top-notch waterproofing techniques, crucial for the beachside location of Hermosa Beach, ensuring long-lasting durability against the ocean air and moisture. Throughout the project, the homeowners shared their vision of a stylish yet low-maintenance exterior. With that in mind, we sourced materials from local suppliers and utilized our extensive experience in coastal renovations to bring their dream to life. The end result is a stunning transformation that not only reflects the homeowner's style but also improves the home's structural integrity, making it a true standout in the neighborhood.

The mid-century modern design trend is a throwback to the design style of primarily the 1950s and 60s when lighting was a source of beauty as well as illumination. The Harrow 1-Light Wall Sconce utilizes a stunning shape, a matte black finish and gold accents to bring mid-century modern design into your home. The curved clear glass shade is a mid-century shape while the matte black finish and gold accent socket has a modern touch. Attached to the wall with a round backplate the Harrow Wall Sconce has a pivoting head to complete the mid-century modern design. Check out the other items in the Harrow collection - with a hanging pendant and a semi-flush mount ceiling light you can decorate your whole home with one trendy style.

Solid Wood entry doors are known for their elegance and high quality appearance and function. However, they are at a higher risk to of being negatively impacted if exposed to harsh weather and direct sunlight. We have sourced a solution to still provide the solid wood feel and look, but without the risk of wear and tear. Our Modern Euro-Technology construction utilizes a sandwich technology that can withstand the elements, while maintaining its structure and beauty. We have also gone a step further to protect against the elements, by incorporating aluminum shield technology.

While working with this couple on their master bathroom, they asked us to renovate their kitchen which was still in the 70’s and needed a complete demo and upgrade utilizing new modern design and innovative technology and elements. We transformed an indoor grill area with curved design on top to a buffet/serving station with an angled top to mimic the angle of the ceiling. Skylights were incorporated for natural light and the red brick fireplace was changed to split face stacked travertine which continued over the buffet for a dramatic aesthetic. The dated island, cabinetry and appliances were replaced with bark-stained Hickory cabinets, a larger island and state of the art appliances. The sink and faucet were chosen from a source in Chicago and add a contemporary flare to the island. An additional buffet area was added for a tv, bookshelves and additional storage. The pendant light over the kitchen table took some time to find exactly what they were looking for, but we found a light that was minimalist and contemporary to ensure an unobstructed view of their beautiful backyard. The result is a stunning kitchen with improved function, storage, and the WOW they were going for.

Designed by The Kitchen Source and Heritage Design Studio, this English Arts and Crafts inspired kitchen was created to feel like the English countryside. Located in Texas, the open plan home combines the kitchen with an informal seating area for guests to chat with the cook, in addition to a bright and airy breakfast room off the left, and a formal dining room off the right. The kitchen is a masterpiece of design, utilizing a combination of Wood-Mode door styles - Colony Recessed, Edgemont Recessed, and Lancaster Recessed – in complementary English-inspired colors of Pale Spring and Vintage Cadet Blue. No detail was overlooked from hand-hewn beams to custom-made solid wood countertops, and custom appliance panels with diamond shaped Gothic mullion inserts. And the details aren’t simply superficial. Behind every drawer and cabinet door hides organizational extras such as a peg drawer to hold dishware; Walnut adjustable drawer partitions and cutlery dividers; and integrated lighting within drawers and cabinets and under-cabinet and wall cabinet integrated lighting makes it easy to find whatever cooking essential is needed.

In the heart of Concord, Massachusetts, a vision for a brighter, more expansive kitchen and dining area has been realized thanks to the collaborative expertise of Sunspace Design and fellow local professionals. Our home-owning clients sought to infuse their living space with natural light. Sunspace Design—renowned for crafting exquisite custom skylights and glass structures—delivered a stunning solution. This project showcases our ability to seamlessly integrate bespoke glass construction into any project. The centerpiece of this transformation is a meticulously crafted 10’ x 17’ double-hip skylight framed in rich mahogany and clad in elegant cold rolled copper. The skylight’s design was engineered in-house and pre-assembled in our workshop to ensure a perfect fit while minimizing installation time. Utilizing high-performance Solarban 70 argon gas-filled insulated glass, the Sunspace team achieved exceptional thermal performance and optimal light transmission to provide a comfortable and luminous environment. We further enhanced the home’s existing Velux skylights with custom copper cladding to ensure a cohesive aesthetic. The copper exterior adds a touch of timeless elegance while the insulated glass secures year-round comfort. As always, we believe in the value of collaboration. This project demonstrates that value. By working closely with Richard Gerace, a skilled general contractor, and Céline Riard of CHIC Redesign, we were able to create a stunning living space for our clients. The detailed craftsmanship—from the mortise and tenon joinery to the precise installation of the glazing system—reflects our commitment to quality and the attention to detail our reputation is built upon. We understand that a skylight is more than just a source of light. Each unit is an opportunity to create a transformative, space-redefining portal to the skies above. Whether you’re a homeowner looking for a sun-drenched interior or a professional aiming to integrate innovative glass solutions into your projects, we’re here to help.

Both the design and construction teams put their heart into making sure we worked with the client to achieve this gorgeous vision. The client was sensitive to both aesthetic and functionality goals, so we set out to improve their old, dated cramped kitchen, with an open concept that facilitates cooking workflow, and dazzles the eye with its mid century modern design. One of their biggest items was their need for increased storage space. We certainly achieved that with ample cabinet space and doubling their pantry space. The 13 foot waterfall island is the centerpiece, which is heavily utilized for cooking, eating, playing board games and hanging out. The pantry behind the walnut doors used to be the fridge space, and there's an extra pantry now to the left of the current fridge. We moved the sink from the counter to the island, which really helped workflow (we created triangle between cooktop, sink and fridge/pantry 2). To make the cabinets flow linearly at the top we moved and replaced the window. The beige paint is called alpaca from Sherwin Williams and the blue is charcoal blue from sw. Everything was carefully selected, from the horizontal grain on the walnut cabinets, to the subtly veined white quartz from Arizona tile, to the black glass paneled luxury hood from Futuro Futuro. The pendants and chandelier are from West Elm. The flooring is from karastan; a gorgeous engineered, white oak in herringbone pattern. The recessed lights are decorative from Lumens. The pulls are antique brass from plank hardware (in London). We sourced the door handles and cooktop (Empava) from Houzz. The faucet is Rohl and the sink is Bianco.
