Sometimes you get an opportunity to completely transform and improve the function of a space. This job was so fun. The townhouse front door opened directly into the kitchen space- which left no walls for appliances and counters. The kitchen only had 7.5 linear feet of countertop- and the fridge stuck out opposite the sink, creating claustrophobia at best, a traffic jam at worse. The owner was willing to think outside the box- and we designed a layout that actually built walls and closed the kitchen off from the entrance, creating a new pantry, a recessed spot for the fridge, and freed up space to add an L-shaped sit down counter height eating area. Now the kitchen has 17 1/4 linear feet of counter space and feels so much larger. The owner chose the beautiful countertops, backsplash and color scheme. This is definitely one of the most transformed spaces I've ever worked on!

Bright white kept the room airy and matches the white kitchen cabinets (not shown). We maximized both storage and display opportunities. Very talented carpenters navigated the baseboard heaters (I am still impressed). For this room I pulled together a palette of lavender, purple and aqua. We moved an antique rug into the space and the deeper purple tones are accentuated by painter Tom DePaul's "Conversations". The focal point of the room is "Fine Arts Quartet Sequence". by Sante Fe artist Frank Ettenberg. He painted this while listening to Shostakovich's string quartets and if you look closely you can see music stands within painting. He was only willing to sell all 6 together as they correspond with different movements in the music.

Welcome to Top Tread Stairways! Well, this is the fun I've been having lately. I just built 4 stairways that are headed to commercial building in a small town in southeast Alaska called Skagway. These are open-riser stairs with Beech treads and flat-grain Doug Fir stringers which gives them somewhat of a contemporary look. Today we're packing everything in a crate along with all the railing parts and iron balusters and shipping to the Port of Seattle where it enters the care of Alaska Marine Lines. We're heading to Skagway, AK to install these in 2 weeks, Lord willing. I thought you might enjoy seeing a shot of these before they leave my shop. HAVE A GREAT DAY and please let me know if I can help you with any custom stair projects. 916-991-9700

Despite its curated appeal, Stacy has dubbed the room as Will's "man cave". "He watches sports in there every night!" she says with a laugh. Not ones to trade in pieces for the sake of age, Weiss and Carpenter have carried many of their furnishings with them as they moved from place to place. "We did a few new things ... as configurations had changed," Stacy explains, "but I usually hang onto my furnishings." Case in point is the couple's 18-year-old Italian sofa. "The fabric was shot, so I bought blue denim and had a local seamstress recover it," she says. Sofa: Charles, B&B Italia

The Kiguchi family moved into their Austin, Texas home in 1994. Built in the 1980’s as part of a neighborhood development, they happily raised their family here but longed for something more contemporary. Once they became empty nesters, they decided it was time for a major remodel. After spending many years visiting Austin AIA Home Tours that highlight contemporary residential architecture, they had a lot of ideas and in 2013 were ready to interview architects and get their renovation underway. The project turned into a major remodel due to an unstable foundation. Architects Ben Arbib and Ed Hughey, of Arbib Hughey Design were hired to solve the structural issue and look for inspiration in the bones of the house, which sat on top of a hillside and was surrounded by great views. Unfortunately, with the old floor plan, the beautiful views were hidden by small windows that were poorly placed. In order to bring more natural light into the house the window sizes and configurations had to be addressed, all while keeping in mind the homeowners desire for a modern look and feel. To achieve a more contemporary and sophisticated front of house, a new entry was designed that included removing a two-story bay window and porch. The entrance of the home also became more integrated with the landscape creating a template for new foliage to be planted. Older exterior materials were updated to incorporate a more muted palette of colors with a metal roof, dark grey siding in the back and white stucco in the front. Deep eaves were added over many of the new large windows for clean lines and sun protection. “Inside it was about opening up the floor plan, expanding the views throughout the house, and updating the material palette to get a modern look that was also warm and inviting,” said Ben from Arbib Hughey Design. “Prior to the remodel, the house had the typical separation of rooms. We removed the walls between them and changed all of the windows to Milgard Thermally Improved Aluminum to connect the inside with the outside. No matter where you are you get nice views and natural light.” The architects wanted to create some drama, which they accomplished with the window placement and opening up the interior floor plan to an open concept approach. Cabinetry was used to help delineate intimate spaces. To add warmth to an all-white living room, white-washed oak wood floors were installed and pine planks were used around the fireplace. The large windows served as artwork bringing the color of nature into the space. An octagon shaped, elevated dining room, (named “the turret”), had a big impact on the design of the house. They architects rounded the corners and added larger window openings overlooking a new sunken garden. The great room was also softened by rounding out the corners and that circular theme continued throughout the house, being picked up in skylight wells and kitchen cabinetry. A staircase leading to a catwalk was added and the result was a two-story window wall that flooded the home with natural light. When asked why Milgard® Thermally Improved Aluminum windows were selected, the architectural team listed many reasons: 1) Aesthetics: “We liked the slim profiles and narrow sightlines. The window frames never get in the way of the view and that was important to us. They also have a very contemporary look that went well with our design.” 2) Options: “We liked that we could get large sliding doors that matched the windows, giving us a very cohesive look and feel throughout the project.” 3) Cost Effective: “Milgard windows are affordable. You get a good product at a good price.” 4) Custom Sizes: “Milgard windows are customizable, which allowed us to get the right window for each location.” Ready to take on your own traditional to modern home remodeling project? Arbib Hughey Design advises, “Work with a good architect. That means picking a team that is creative, communicative, listens well and is responsive. We think it’s important for an architect to listen to their clients and give them something they want, not something the architect thinks they should have. At the same time you want an architect who is willing and able to think outside the box and offer up design options that you may not have considered. Design is about a lot of back and forth, trying out ideas, getting feedback and trying again.” The home was completely transformed into a unique, contemporary house perfectly integrated with its site. Internally the home has a natural flow for the occupants and externally it is integrated with the surroundings taking advantage of great natural light. As a side note, it was highly praised as part of the Austin AIA homes tour.

A 100 year old home gets a much needed kitchen renovation. The owner desperately needed a more functional space to suit their family of five. Adding stacked white cabinetry for added storage and a faux wall behind the refrigerator gives this kitchen a better layout and more storage. Upgrading the materials to cater to a more modern design while honoring the home's history was a task Bella Domicile was willing to help with. S. Photography Dura Supreme Cabinetry
