Pore-less, stain proof, heat resistant, fade resistant countertop material: Porcelain Slab : Calcatta Luxe Color This beautiful new color is is trending strongly in the market. Calacatta is the most popular marble looking color and this new "Luxe" variant includes veins of gold, brown and black allowing it to match with many different color themes while giving chic radiance and energy to your space.

You can purchase this product as material only to be delivered as slabs from our local warehouse in Houston, TX or select our professional installation services to ensure top quality workmanship.

This recent remodel was a full gut down to the stubs and sub floors. The biggest challenge in the space was creating a single room from 2 separate areas. The original galley kitchen and a 1980’s add-on breakfast room. The breakfast room was cold and had old mechanicals emphasizing the need for a continuous space. The existing kitchen area was small, cramped and did not fit the lifestyle of the homeowners. The homeowners wanted a hidden pantry for large and seasonal items as well as for food storage. I planned for a portion of the garage to be transformed to a full size, walk-in, hidden pantry that catered to the needs of the family. Three of the most important design features include the hidden pantry, “other room” storage such as the mudroom seat and window bench, as well as the eat-in counter. Other notable design elements include glass cabinets, under-cabinet lighting, a message center and built-in under the counter appliances. The coffee system is plumbed allowing for immediate hot coffee and specialty drinks at the touch of a button. Dimensions: 27’X12’ Cabinetry: KEMPER Flooring: MAPLE HARDWOOD with Radiant floor heat. Countertops/Vanity Tops: Quartzite/MARBLE (Donna Sandra) Sinks: BLANCO Faucets: DELTA with Touch2o-technology. Dishwasher: MIELE Cooktop/Range: WOLF Lighting: FEISS Refrigerator: SUB-ZERO Oven: WOLF Plumbing Supplies: DELTA POT FILLER Hardware: ATLAS

e took this 1989 kitchen and created an open concept floor plan that flows into the family room for the retired empty nesters. The homeowners wanted a kitchen remodel to expand within their home to have the option to entertain comfortably and upgrade to a kitchen that is future proofed so it hold its value into their retirement years. The center wall was knocked out to open up the space. We took out the bulk heads and rerouted the infrastructure (plumbing and HVAC) to make way ceiling height cabinets. Warm natural hardwood and granite meets the modern stainless steel appliances that are timeless trends that have style. This includes Kraftmaid Marquette Full Overlay in Cherry. The island was finished in a Kaffe Cherry whereas the cabinets on the perimeter are a Natural Cherry with Typhoon Bordeaux countertops. The backsplash is done in Impero Reale honed marble and Merrilee Coffee Bar mosaic focal point above the sink. Brushed nickel and stainless-steel sink, faucet and cabinet hardware are all a nice compliment to the Cherry Cabinets. More lights for a brighter kitchen with under cabinet task lighting, beautiful pendant lights and recessed lighting scheme never leaves you in the dark. Under the cabinet beverage cooler keeps the drinks cold and at the ready for the owner and their guest. Tuscan Hickory engineered hardwood flows from the kitchen into the family room.

Setting the new standard for modern farmhouse luxury. This breathtaking exterior is anchored by a massive 5x8 custom pivot door crafted from premium natural white oak. The sheer scale of the oversized entrance creates an immediate architectural impact, while the organic warmth of the wood perfectly balances the crisp, clean lines of the home's contemporary facade. Because solid wood doors of this magnitude are inherently prone to bowing and sticking, this grand entrance is engineered with Pivot Door Company’s signature hidden steel-core technology. The result is a 100% warp-proof, commercial-grade entrance that operates with weightless precision, providing custom builders and architects with a stunning, zero-callback statement piece.

To take advantage of this home’s natural light and expansive views and to enhance the feeling of spaciousness indoors, we designed an open floor plan on the main level, including the living room, dining room, kitchen and family room. This new traditional-style kitchen boasts all the trappings of the 21st century, including granite countertops and a Kohler Whitehaven farm sink. Sub-Zero under-counter refrigerator drawers seamlessly blend into the space with front panels that match the rest of the kitchen cabinetry. Underfoot, blonde Acacia luxury vinyl plank flooring creates a consistent feel throughout the kitchen, dining and living spaces.

The nook to the right of the fridge was the perfect place to store daily use appliances like coffee makers and toasters. It completed the beverage station which is now equipped with a beverage cooler, coffee maker and storage for glasses. Photo by Janee Hartman.

This home bowling alley was installed in a multi-purpose entertainment and recreation basement that includes a home theater, bar with wine cooler, cocktail table, benches, and game nook. The pinsetters were enclosed in a closet with sound-proofing panels and two sets of double doors on the rear side. This bowling equipment package included a computer scoring system with overhead TV monitors, guest bowling balls and shoes, and a lane maintenance kit.

Beautiful home with a living room that needed a lift. We kept the existing wall color and added a beautiful blue to accent the two recessed walls left and right of the fireplace. The existing sectional was replaced with an oversized 3-seater and a matching love seat for lots of room when guests are over. Couches have tufted backs, fabric is stain proofed. Adding side tables and side lamps balances the set-up. Room had a tendency to be dark, adding light furniture and installing recess lights on dimmers were a must to keep it light and airy, even on days when the sun is not out. The reclaimed nesting tables added a bit of rustic to the space and also function well when pulled apart for placing drinks etc. The rug was selected to tie in with the furniture and the accent walls. The Art work was picked by the client, it is just perfect for the space! The fireplace was outdated and received a new cover with stackstone and a new deep Mantel. The left side of the fireplace, recessed in, was perfect for the reclining chairs that invite to sit and read or can be pulled up to the main area for additional seating. The right side of the fireplace received a sideboard that added storage.
