Los Altos Hills - home office

September 04, 2009 in Completed projects, Los Altos Hills, Projects

The office space was a new addition to the house and needed all new custom cabinetry and furnishings. There are a few key pieces to be completed before we can take some decent photos of the space.

A young girl's bedroom

September 03, 2009 in Completed projects, Design, Los Altos Hills, Projects

My Los Altos Hills clients have two children - a boy and a girl. I was asked to come up with a proposal for the 5 year old girl's bedroom. My design included a color & paint scheme, custom bedding design and furniture selections. The idea was that the pieces and bedding are to be able to grow with her - so not be overtly age specific or juvenile. The room needed to feel fresh, youthful, bright and stylish.

BATHROOMS - Seatoun Heights Rd

These are photos from a project I designed for a home in Wellington, New Zealand. The cabinetry was wholly designed by myself and the aim was to have a contemporary clean look with a nod to the craftman style of the house. The designs incorporated elements of recycled wood taken from the house during demolition.

KITCHENS

Snapshots from various kitchens I have designed - ranging from high end completely custom kitchens to kitchens using modular cabinetry.

Stainless steel & wood

A pared back kitchen design for a bungalow style home. The kitchen design incorporated wood & stainless steel counters and solid wood cabinetry.

Contemporary kitchen for a brick Arts & Crafts cottage.

This project involved opening up the floor plan in the cottage, removing walls and relocating the kitchen to its current position. Originally the kitchen was located at the back of the house and was disconnected from the living areas, views and decks.

Butcher Block Island

Being a small cottage the kitchen needed to utilize every available space without compromising the design. The island with a Australian jarrah wood top housed the concealed dishwasher and also provided open storage for the most often used dishes and mugs.

Midtown Palo Alto cottage. Semi custom kitchen.

For this kitchen the owners wanted to use a modular kitchen system, with custom stone counters. I designed the kitchen (including the tile work) and helped them choose the cabinet style and finish colors. This project also involved removing the walls between the kitchen and the living areas and putting in new french doors & window in the kitchen area to allow access to the patio and garden.

Contemporary kitchen for a bungalow style home.

A new kitchen for a 1930's bungalow. A second story was added to the house and the new kitchen, living room and dining room were located upstairs in the new addition to take advantage of the hilltop position with views of the ocean.

Wood salvaged from the home during the demolition phase was reused for details in the kitchen and bathrooms.
