The Carrs decided to make a great change in there master bathroom. And after asking around for contractor referrals, GC was suggested by a neighbor and interior decorator Cindy Easley. With computer in hand we went to work. The design presented a few problems. First they had a beautiful barrel ceiling (which was not accented flanked by soffits. The soffits were small and also lacked definition. Second when you got in the shower, it felt like you just stepped into a telephone both. Once the design was finished GC had a roomy glass shower to build, complete with a steam unit. After deciding on a tile ceiling for the half barrel and built in tub unit the only thing left was to choose a custom built in cabinet set to finish the new Master bath. Needless to say this was a hugh transformation. The before and after shots are amazing.

I needed to keep my same basic footprint and my appliances were a couple years old and I didn't want to replace them. I did purchase a new stovetop and wine refrigerator. I also kept my same floor which is throughout most of the house and removed the soffits and retextured ceiling and changed the lighting.I did splurge on the quartz countertops, glass tile, travertine backsplash and Grohe faucet.

We recently updated our master bedroom. My husband tore out the existing ceiling and put in a coffered ceiling to give the room an illusion of more size. He built bookcases and cabinetry to showcase the addition of a fireplace. With the addition of elegant lighting and draperies the room has exceeded our expectations. We decorated the room using a monochromatic theme to give it a warm and comfortable "hotel suite" feel.

A highly traditional kitchen turned TRANSITIONAL beauty!! This beautiful "white kitchen" encompasses many custom features. The needs of this functional kitchen were an open concept for easy entertainment, a light and airy feeling with updated appliances, and an additional counter prep for mail station. After relocating the stove and refrigerator and designing a new, larger custom island, we met each and ever need for a clean, contemporary kitchen. The shaker style custom cabinetry was detailed exquisitely, and the white marble backsplash and granite countertops added to the custom finishes. The superior craftsmanship in this white kitchen was highlighted throughout the lighting and upper cabinet muntin grids with glass fronts.

Hotel Chic

In 2008 an extension was added to this small country home thus allowing the clients to redesign the main floor with a larger master suite, housing a separate vanity, and a bathroom filled with technology, elegance and luxury.
Although the existing space was acceptable, it did not reflect the charismatic character of the clients, and lacked breathing space.
By borrowing the ineffective space from their existing “entrance court” and removing all closets thus permitting for a private space to accommodate a large vanity with Jack and Jill sinks, a separate bathroom area housing a deep sculptural tub with air massage and hydrotherapy combination, set in a perfect symmetrical fashion to allow the beautiful views of the outdoor landscape, a thin 30” LCD TV, and incorporating a large niche wall for artful accessories and spa products, as well as a private entrance to the large well organized dressing room with a make-up counter. A peaceful, elegant yet highly functional on-suite was created by this young couple’s dream of having a contemporary hotel chic palette inspired by their travels in Paris. Using the classic black and white color combination, a touch of glam, the warm natural color of cherry wood and the technology and innovation brought this retreat to a new level of relaxation.

Jelly Bean Kitchen

We bought a house with an extremely small kitchen, tin cabinets, wild striped paint which covered the walls and cabinets, old checkered tiled floor, a purple door.

Our plan was to remove a wall, expand the kitchen into the old dining room, build a whole new family room, and use the old living room as our new dining room. Our objective was to create a space that was elegant, functional, and great for entertaining. Tell us if you feel we've created this effect.

This dated 1970's childhood home to them was a place where Mardi grew up and now took possession with her husband and children years later which was full of memories. They gave us the opportunity to transform this house to a masterpiece that they now have enjoyed for the past year.
This is a 3 story home in Irvine Turtle Rock area that has a magnificent view but unfortunately was blocked by 3 interior walls on the 1st floor. We removed all interior walls and install approx 5000 lbs of structural I-Beams that now hold the house up. The kitchen was in the middle of the house which was relocated to the opposite side giving it a larger kitchen area and opening up the house so when you walked in the door your eyes never stopped looking. Where once your eyes stopped at the wall when you walked in now carry out down the stairs through the room and off into the city lights. Every square inch of this home was remodeled 3 bathrooms, outside hard cape and soft cape. This house has the coolest railing that I designed. All the wood in the house is African mahogany and stained with 2 part golden oak and 1 part red mahogany with a semi gloss clear. The entire bathroom ceiling was raised from 7’6” to 10’4” to make it feel more spacious. Thanks a lot for taking the time to visit and appreciate your feedback.

Updated from white on...

Original kitchen was the 1966 white laminate with plastic drawers, metal edge laminate tops, sheet flooring over glue down VCT. In a 1,200 sq. ft. home I needed to open the kitchen up to make it feel larger and I was able to do this by lowering the wall between the kitchen and living room to 40" and creating a seating area. Lack of lighting while I cook drives me nuts so I have 600 watts of adjustable lighting now. Very important to me to do the 30" deep cabinet over the refridgerator with a side panel as I see to many $20,000 kitchens that the fridge sticks out, no need for this. Tile installed diagonally for nice look, contrary to what installers tell us this cost no more to do. All work completed by myself.
