RJ Austin Interior DesignThe main objective was to optimize storage and function. We chose a 18" wide dishwasher to save on space, added blind corner units with pull out trays, and built in a table accessible behind a drawer front.

Isaman design, Inc.At the start of the project, the clients proposed an interesting programmatic requirement; design a home that is comfortable enough for a husband and wife to live in, while being large enough for the entire extended family to gather at. The result is a traditional old world style home that is centered around a large great room ideal for hosting family gatherings during the holidays and weekends alike. A 9′ by 16′ pocketing sliding door opens the great room up to the back patio and the views of the Edna Valley foothills beyond. With 14 grandchildren in the family, a fully outfitted game room was a must, along with a home gym and office.
The combination of large living spaces and private rooms make this home the ideal large family retreat.

R.A.W. ConceptsThe kitchen and family room was reconfigured to create two new bays, which overlook a newly landscaped rear garden. This lends a feeling of light and harmony to the kitchen and family room. The arch top windows and doors reaffirm the style of the home. New arched openings and a barrel-vaulted arch to the stair leading to the home office and garage area continue the efforts to develop this unique space. High ceilings with crown molding, dark stained hardwood floors, mahogany cabinets, and granite countertops with full bullnose edge detail all combine to add a warm flavor to the heart of this home.

Sprucehill Custom Homes & RenovationsBy opening up the wall in the loft and adding a glass railing we were able to bring some natural light through to the dark entry area.

Michael BagleyIn order to add drama to the entry to the residence, we removed all of the door frames and visible hinges and paneled the right side of the 23' passage in a satin finished Sycamore thus masking the fact the a large closet, guest bedroom and Master suite are accessed through this area. The opening on the left takes one to the kitchen, utility closet and 3rd bathroom. The original kitchen entrance was where the black console now sits, was relocated by MB Designs, LTD to, a. make the entrance more dramatic and elegant, and, b. to create a more functional kitchen. The recessed ceilings on this level of the residence were defined by creating soffits housing inset lighting that both provided illumination and defined the areas of the entrance, Dining Room and Living Room. This subtle division was further enhanced by creating a carpet in each respective area all sharing the same filed while each having its own accent colored band. The 3 entry pendants are custom fixtures of Mica and like the carpets and all interior details, designed by MB Designs.
