1930’s Cottage Revival
Get the full story on how we transformed a 1930s cottage that most overlooked.
Once dismissed and sitting on the market, this home found new life through vision, design, and strategy. We helped the homeowner see its hidden potential, completely reimagining the interior - and the result was so loved that the next owners brought us back for a second phase addition.

1970’s Tract Home to Californian Modern
Get the full story on how we transformed a 1960s tract builder home into a Californian modern expanded family living.
This 1970s tract home was completely reimagined by reconfiguring existing spaces and adding a two-story addition with an expanded kitchen and great room for indoor-outdoor entertaining, a proper primary suite with outdoor terrace for the stunning views, and additional bedrooms and baths - all finished with refreshed mid-century curb appeal.
