Here are a few samples of work from my design/build remodeling days:

Oak kitchen with maple countertops:
These four views show the four corners of a kitchen plus dining room alteration.
The clients for this oak kitchen were accustomed to entertain socially by putting on gourmet Chinese meals for friends. The project involved incorporating the dining area with the kitchen area so that the cook could work and visit with guests at the same time.

                 



One of my specialties in kitchen remodeling was maximizing convenient storage space.

Drawers:
full-extension hardware brings the entire drawer clear of the cabinet for full access.

 

 

Blind corner storage:
a 'lazy susan' revolving shelf won't work here, so a half-circle shelf rotates out and then extends.

1.    2.    3.    4.


In addition to designing efficient storage, a constant design goal of mine was to find details that would create harmony among different structural elements.

Making a Graceful Entrance:
Functionality and elegance enhance each other in places besides the kitchen. Changing levels in a home provides an opportunity for an inviting transition.
