Recently, we have been installing a lot of custom built-in cabinetry, shelving, and entertainment centers. Almost all of our larger design build renovations include at least one custom cabinet or vanity, and in some kitchen remodels, we design and build all of the cabinetry. The beauty of these custom pieces is that they can be
Remodeling in Washington, DC can be tricky for many reasons; not the least of which is that you are frequently working with limited space. Particularly in multi-unit buildings, kitchens and bathrooms present design challenges as they are often confined to only a few square feet. When remodeling a kitchen, we are often able to increase

The Fairmont living room was designed with entertaining in mind. This theme called for a largely open floor plan that provides a close connection to the kitchen. In place of a structural wall, we used a salvaged oak post and beam to shore up the floor above. Aside from being structural, this post and beam
The master bath was a design challenge due to the relatively small size, and the fact that we needed to fit in closet space as well as a functional bathroom. Rather than squeezing in a bathtub, we decided to stick with a walk in shower. A floating vanity is designed to allow the eye to
