Another cabinet with retractable doors houses a bake center. The mixer and blender can remain easily accessable but don't crowd the countertops of the main kitchen space. Note the rollout shelving below. A spice pullout is also housed in the base cabinetry right under the cookbooks. Photography by Chrissy Racho.

Clear cedar screening visually de-clutters the space and the deck built on top provides support for the hedging planter boxes. The stepped planter boxes further screen the rock retaining wall behind it and climbing vine plants can be grown to further screen the existing fence and take advantage of warmer micro-climates. NOTE: Use the cedar deck post as reference point between before & after photos

Careful edits and updates were needed in our client's guest bedroom. Their current metal sleigh bed was far too bulky and heavy visually in addition to taking up too much precious space in this tiny bedroom. The room felt cluttered with far too much furniture, cold and downright unwelcoming. For balance, the bed was relocated to the opposite wall. A bold Nikki Chu wallcovering with a playful abstract design was then added to create a focal point and interest. To free up space and to add balance to this room, a 'headboard only' design (minus the footboard) was selected. The headboard's teak and jute elements paired well with this new backdrop to add great texture and interest to the room. Less furniture, visually exciting feature wall and crisp draperies in a free form pattern helped to complete the look.

This Coastal kitchen renovation was a detail-oriented renovation, as every small detail made up the greater difference between an outdated kitchen and a Coastal-inspired gathering place. Every detail was meticulously tailored to open up the space and harness the natural light, culminating in a sanctuary of timeless elegance. With the removal of overhead cabinets, dark appliances and a cluttered backsplash, the kitchen instantly opened up, creating an airy, light-filled atmosphere. From white walls to white countertops, predominantly white features were strategically chosen to reflect and amplify the abundant natural light streaming through the expansive windows, creating a luminous and inviting environment. The backsplash, positioned horizontally to visually widen the space, creates a visual sense of expansiveness. Silver appliances contribute to a cool tone which ultimately creates a calm feeling. The accentual wood elements bring warmth and charm, seamlessly blending with the Coastal theme while adding a cozy ambiance. From the removal of clutter to the strategic use of white hues and natural materials, small details contributed to the greater whole to create a serene haven for culinary creativity and cherished gatherings to come to this kitchen.

With a multi-purpose space it's helpful to create working areas to avoid visual clutter and confusion. Beveridge bar by day and studio work space by evening this set allows my Client to offer her clients a drink of water, tea or coffee and offers my Client's counterpart a good sturdy work surface with seating for four. Funny enough I started looking for a console table but happened upon this patio set. It came with the stools, was at standing working height which is a bonus for art making and has masculine lines which balance out the feminine qualities of the other pieces of furniture in the room.
