Spiral staircases although beautiful can be difficult and possibly dangerous for some people. We were able to make this homeowner’s dream come true by removing the existing spiral staircase and installing a pneumatic elevator in its place.
This bathroom actually had ample space to begin with but the design choices did not make it appear so. By removing the shower wall and installing a glass shower enclosure we were able to make the bathroom feel much larger. The gorgeous square glass tiles we used in the shower give a beautiful pop of color. We also replaced the old dark floor tiles with a travertine tile to once again brighten up this space. The cabinets were handmade by Kanga in our woodworking shop out of a beautiful Walnut and topped off with a gorgeous quartz countertop. To finish off this much needed update we replaced the old built-in tub with a modern freestanding tub and added recessed lighting throughout to really show off all the new design choices.
We gave this outdated kitchen a new life. We removed the soffits and lofted the ceiling to give this kitchen more height. We also removed walls at either end of the kitchen to really open up the space. At one end we replaced the exterior wall with a glass door to allow easy access to the porch as well as provide plenty of natural light. To do this we needed to move the stove to the adjacent wall. We also replaced the existing wood floor with a fun black and white checkered tile. We then replaced the existing green cabinets with white shaker style cabinets for a much cleaner and brighter look. The three old smaller windows in the kitchen were removed and replaced with a large Euro-Wall accordion style folding window which fully opens allowing the outside and inside to become one. And the other wall that was removed now lets the kitchen flow straight into the dining room creating a nice open floor plan. Such an amazing transformation of this space!
