Making a House a Home

 

We work directly with homeowners, designers, and architects. Most of our clients come to us directly asking for help with their homes, although not always being able to describe specifically what they want.  Our job is to work collaboratively with all parties to help shape, refine, and execute the work that brings a smile to our clients every time they come home.  Here are a few brief examples:

 

Kitchen Remodel for Residential San Francisco Home

Remaking a City Flat

The client had purchased a remodeled flat, but was unsatisfied with various finish selections and a loss of original detail. In the kitchen we swapped a tile backsplash for a subtle stone thus allowing the existing counters to really shine. Cabinetry was painted, lighting revised, a new hardwood floor installed, and the door openings corrected.

 
Custom Mantle and Bookcase for Marin Residential Client

A New Study For Her

Our client wanted a new home office/study that would allow her to run her business and allow the family to use the room for game nights and weekend gatherings.

 
Custom Coffered Ceiling for Marin County Remodel

A Ceiling Not Forgotten

Because of existing roof framing challenges, we designed a coffered ceiling that nested within the existing structure which maximized ceiling height and minimized the framing issues. We strive to best accommodate our homeowner’s visions throughout the home renovation.

 
Herringbone floor for residential San Anselmo client

Herringbone Flooring

We specified and installed a new herringbone floor pattern with a black walnut feature strip. Nearly four thousand individual pieces went into this creation, requiring expertise and skilled craftsmanship, but the client was thrilled with the result as were we.

 
Custom tilework for mill valley residential bathroom remodel

Transforming Tile

The client was also unhappy with the existing shower tile prior to their bathroom remodel. During a business trip to New York, he found this handmade Italian glass tile and wanted to bring it home. We removed the existing shower walls, installed insulation and wallboard, and laid the new tile. We also installed a new custom-built walnut vanity and improved the lighting and ventilation. This bathroom remodel provided our craftsmen a new medium to show their incredible talents.
