Bathroom renovation
San Jose, California
Each project begins with an idea. This homeowner wanted clean lines with craftsman accents to open up the dark existing space. For openness, we removed a wall, added a high window for natural light, and constructed a half-wall for openness with privacy. After building a deep pantry behind the shower, we added a second fixture on the opposite shower wall, framed a curb for the enclosure, and installed high-end custom marble tile high to balance the tall ceiling space. To create a seamless leveled transition between wood flooring and tile, we built up the sub-flooring. The client was thrilled with craftsmanship features: molding on the pony-wall, around the window, and above the mirrors, and accents integrating pantry cabinetry with the vanity. The color palette of soft gray and white allowed for the smaller tiles - modern with a vintage flair, which the homeowner loved - to fit in a big space. These were many of the unique details that resulted in tremendous customer satisfaction. The final product was exactly as the excited client had hoped and imagined.

Kitchen Renovation
Monte Sereno, California
This client's eye for detail created fun challenges for us. The client wanted to optimize the existing space. With vaulted ceilings, our challenge was to open-up the kitchen in a big but non-dominating fashion. Every decision was towards a streamlined, clean, utilitarian style. While constructing the infinity/waterfall edges on the island, we created a seamless transition from the countertop to the side. We built it to accommodate an occasional fourth chair without the appearance of wide unused space without the extra chair. The specialized pendant fixtures were 30 lbs each, requiring special ceiling support. To maintain the client's desire for a flat/straight style, we were meticulous with alignment; any slight error would have been discernible. We enjoyed all the modern, engineered, high-quality materials we worked with: the amazing backsplash tile, quality countertops, candelabra lights, under-the-cabinet LED lights, and high-end appliances. The crown molding and custom windows were finishing touches on a beautiful project.
