A kitchen remodel is the perfect time to add thoughtful features that enhance style, function, and convenience. Small details can make a big impact—whether it’s maximizing storage or creating a space that’s perfect for entertaining. From built-in spice storage to a bar overhang for indoor-outdoor hosting, here are five fun features to consider for your dream kitchen.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are a smart way to add living space, whether for family visits, rental income, or a private retreat in your own backyard. In this post, we’re sharing some of our standout tiny homes that make the most of every square foot.
Glass partitions are an excellent design solution for homeowners who want a defined space without making a room feel smaller or darker. Some benefits include natural light flow, visual connection, noise reduction, and modern style.
The Watergate’s close proximity to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was a major draw for our clients. As passionate music lovers, they wanted a home that allowed them to entertain before and after performances with ease. They also have a deep appreciation for Art Deco design, but the condo’s original aesthetic felt outdated, and its layout didn’t align with their needs. A key goal of the remodel was to enhance the westward-facing views of the Potomac, which required strategic changes to the floor plan. Condo renovations come with unique constraints—many walls are structural and cannot be moved. However, by carefully removing select partitions in the living area, we were able to create an open and inviting space that seamlessly connects the kitchen and living room while drawing attention to the river views.
Green kitchens are having a moment, and for good reason. Whether dark and dramatic or light and refreshing, green cabinetry brings depth and personality while remaining versatile enough to suit a variety of styles. From deep emerald to soft sage, these hues can make a statement without overpowering a space. In this blog, we’re showcasing three of our recent kitchen remodels, each featuring a unique take on this timeless yet bold color.
Our clients, a busy family in Washington, DC, cook almost every meal at home and wanted an updated kitchen that better fit their needs. They also requested a new staircase that matched the Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic found throughout the rest of their home. We had previously remodeled their bathroom and were thrilled to help them transform their kitchen into a modern, functional space.
This ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) project was driven by Alexandria’s citywide effort to refine zoning regulations, making it easier for homeowners to add these standalone spaces. Often, principal dwellings face occupancy restrictions, and additions can be disruptive to the main home during the build. A backyard ADU, however, offers a practical solution—providing a private retreat for the homeowners and their children, as well as the flexibility for use as an in-law suite or short-term rental. These benefits made an ADU an ideal choice for our clients, and the design was carefully planned to meet these unique considerations.
