Before and After Gallery

Hyridge Problem

This small bathroom was tight and outdated. The closet was too small and this master bathroom did not have a shower. All surfaces were dating the bathroom and the cabinets had water damage. When two people were using the vanity area at the same time they would bump into each other making the space seem even smaller.

Hyridge Solution

The closet was located at one end of the bathtub with the adjacent wall shared with the garage. This was ideal for a large walk in closet that was built using the space we captured from the garage. Next, we were able to use the old closet space to add a new shower and open the bathroom up.

North Bend Problem

This kitchen was outdated with dark walls, tiny pantry, and outdated appliances. A wall next to the pantry was keeping the space shut off and leaving the room with a cramped feeling.

North Bend Solution

To bring this kitchen alive we removed the wall to open up the room allow more space. The green walls and wallpaper were replaced with white paint to brighten the room. We redesigned the cabinets and pantry for better functioning and more storage space. We then added a new island and appliances.

Capella Trail Problem

The original bathroom lacked any focal points or redeeming functional qualities. The bulky scale and dark colors, typical of the Tuscan style, didn’t suit the client’s “restoration Hardware inspired home.

Capella Trail Solution

The new master suite boasts a refined aesthetic with a crisp, contrasting color palette. Touches of rustic and organic elements sit juxtaposition to the modern freestanding vanities and sleek tile work. An elegant arabesque-tile pony wall runs behind the lady’s vanity and pierces the shower glass acting as a visual element of interest and functional ledge. Finally, a backdrop of split-face stone sets the stage for an inviting freestanding tub.

Oakshire Problem

This dark gallery kitchen called for a drastic makeover. The kitchen ceiling was low with dark walls and dark cabinets which made the kitchen feel small. The location of the refrigerator restricted the view between the breakfast nook and cooking area.

Oakshire Solution

The kitchen’s limited width inspired a design of light cabinetry with open shelving. The refrigerator was relocated opening up the breakfast area. Removing the dining room wall allows natural light in. The existing ceiling light box was replaced with recessed can lights, task lights recessed into the open shelves illuminate on all work areas. Granite countertops where selected for durability and clean up. A microwave drawer provides more counter-space and cabinet drawers maximize storage. The existing pantry was enlarged which now allows for the refrigerator to be built-in.

Trail Ridge Problem

The homeowners desire to remove the bottlenecks at the main entrance and table entrances into the kitchen was the challenge.

Trail Ridge Solution

The result was accomplished by relocating the laundry room to the upstairs and deleting the pantry. Then shifting the Livingroom wall created a large soapstone workspace with a deep single basin sink with two faucets. Floor to ceiling custom cabinetry and drawers, and angles provide for better flow while maximizing storage, including a baking station with power and light. The Benchmark induction cooktop and under-counter refrigerator increase the client’s efficiency. Task and recessed can lights illuminate the entire kitchen.
