This backyard landscape design is inspired by our Blu Grande Smooth patio slab. Perfect paving slab for modern poolsides and backyard design, Blu Grande Smooth is a large concrete patio stone available in multiple colors. It's smooth texture is sleek to the eye but rougher to the touch which avoids it from getting slippery when wet. The large rectangular shape works as an easy add-on into Blu 60 regular modular patterns but can also work as a stand-alone to create a very linear look. Check out the HD2 Blu Grande Smooth which is all about seamless looks with a tighter/poreless texture and anti-aging technology.

This pool and spa is built in an affluent neighborhood with many new homes that are traditional in design but have modern, clean details. Similar to the homes, this pool takes a traditional pool and gives it a clean, modern twist. The site proved to be perfect for a long lap pool that the client desired with plenty of room for a separate spa. The two bodies of water, though separate, are visually linked together by a custom limestone raised water feature wall with 10 custom Bobe water scuppers. Quality workmanship as required throughout the entire build to ensure the automatic pool cover would remain square the entire 50 foot length of the pool. Features of this pool and environment that enhance the aesthetic appeal of this project include: -Glass waterline tile -Glass seat and bench tile -Glass tile swim lane marking on pool floor -Custom limestone coping and deck -PebbleTec pool finish -Synthetic Turf Lawn This outdoor environment cohesively brings the clean & modern finishes of the home seamlessly to the outdoors to a pool and spa for play, exercise and relaxation.

This condo underwent an amazing transformation! The kitchen was moved from one side of the condo to the other so the homeowner could take advantage of the beautiful view. This beautiful hutch makes a wonderful serving counter and the tower on the left hides a supporting column. The beams in the ceiling are not only a great architectural detail but they allow for lighting that could not otherwise be added to the condos concrete ceiling. The lovely crown around the room also conceals solar shades and drapery rods.

Smokey Blue Kitchen: A Blend of Classic Elegance and Modern Flair This kitchen design showcases a harmonious balance of sophistication and warmth, where smokey blue cabinetry sets the tone for an inviting yet stylish space. Thoughtful details such as brass hardware and a striking black island create depth and visual interest, while natural stone countertops bring a touch of organic beauty. Key Features of This Kitchen Design: Smokey Blue Cabinets: The cabinetry’s soft, smoky blue color adds a layer of elegance and tranquility, making the kitchen feel welcoming and refined. This hue serves as the perfect backdrop for other design elements, exuding both charm and contemporary appeal. Natural Stone Countertops: Luxurious, natural stone countertops with subtle veining offer durability and timeless beauty. Their organic patterns pair perfectly with the blue cabinets, adding texture and a natural touch that grounds the space. Brass Hardware: Polished brass handles and knobs introduce warmth and a hint of luxury, standing out against the smokey blue and complementing the black island. The brass accents elevate the overall design and tie in seamlessly with transitional or traditional styles. Black Island: The bold, black island serves as a dramatic centerpiece, providing a striking contrast to the softer tones of the surrounding cabinets. This focal point not only enhances the color palette but also adds a touch of modernity. Pops of Color: Thoughtfully chosen decorative elements, patterned textiles, add personality and liveliness without overpowering the sophisticated color scheme. Glass Elegance: Glass-front cabinets or pendant lights with glass detailing contribute to an airy, open feel while adding a touch of refinement. These elements subtly reflect light and elevate the kitchen’s ambiance. This smokey blue kitchen is a masterful blend of classic and contemporary design. The use of brass hardware, natural stone, and a bold black island alongside glass details creates a space that is not only elegant but also rich with character and warmth.

Built on Frank Sinatra’s estate, this custom home was designed to be a fun and relaxing weekend retreat for our clients who live full time in Orange County. As a second home and playing up the mid-century vibe ubiquitous in the desert, we departed from our clients’ more traditional style to create a modern and unique space with the feel of a boutique hotel. Classic mid-century materials were used for the architectural elements and hard surfaces of the home such as walnut flooring and cabinetry, terrazzo stone and straight set brick walls, while the furnishings are a more eclectic take on modern style. We paid homage to “Old Blue Eyes” by hanging a 6’ tall image of his mug shot in the entry.
