In Seattle's Fremont neighborhood SCJ Studio designed a new landscape to surround and set off a contemporary home by Coates Design Architects. The narrow spaces around the tall home needed structure and organization, and a thoughtful approach to layout and space programming. A concrete patio was installed with a Paloform Bento gas fire feature surrounded by lush, northwest planting. A horizontal board cedar fence provides privacy from the street and creates the cozy feeling of an outdoor room among the trees. LED low-voltage lighting by Kichler Lighting adds night-time warmth .

We executed a full-scale renovation that included the kitchen, bathrooms,and living spaces. The kitchen was upgraded with state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinetry, and elegant countertops. Bathrooms received spa-like upgrades with high-end fixtures, custom tiling, and modern lighting. Living areas were redesigned to create an open concept, enhancing natural light and flow throughout the home. Results: The home's value almost doubled, and the homeowner realized a return on investment that was three times what they put into the project. This was evidenced in 2023 when they sold the home and a neighbor who had not updated their condo sold for a million less. Our meticulous attention to detail and dedication to excellence ensured that every aspect of the remodel met and exceeded the homeowner's expectations.

Adding a custom closet to your Orange County home is more than just a practical upgrade—it’s a way to transform how you live. With personalized closet solutions, you can maximize every inch of space, keeping your wardrobe organized and accessible. Whether it's walk-in closets with built-in shelving or smaller, efficiently designed reach-ins, custom closets bring order and style to any room. I recently worked with a client in Newport Beach who struggled with a cramped closet space in their master bedroom. After a custom redesign, we added adjustable shelves, shoe racks, and a hidden hamper, instantly creating a functional and enjoyable area to start their day. From improved storage to increased home value, custom closets are an investment that pays off in both form and function.

A 3-season porch kit can provide similar livability (except on very cold days) but remain low cost and simple enough for do-it-yourself homeowners. It can add resale value to your home, without increasing your property taxes.

Embarking on a garage remodeling project is a transformative endeavor that can significantly enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of the space. By investing in tailored storage solutions such as cabinets, wall-mounted organizers, and overhead racks, one can efficiently declutter the area and create a more organized storage system. Flooring upgrades, such as epoxy coatings or durable tiles, not only improve the garage's appearance but also provide a resilient surface. Adding custom workbenches or tool storage solutions contributes to a more efficient and user-friendly workspace. Additionally, incorporating proper lighting and ventilation ensures a well-lit and comfortable environment. A remodeled garage not only increases property value but also opens up possibilities for alternative uses, such as a home gym, workshop, or hobby space, making it a worthwhile investment for both practicality and lifestyle improvement.
