Before and After: Lake Greehaven Remodel

Often, it's hard to truly appreciate an after photo until you see where it all started.  Today I'm featuring a few photos from one of my recent kitchen and bath remodels which has easily become one of my favorites.

Before and After: Hillside Home in San Francisco

On this gray and potentially rainy day (in Sacramento anyway), I thought I would brighten it with some color from my Before and After photos of my recently completed client project, which was a hillside residence in San Francisco that had some lovely south bay views.

This project was a marriage of French antiques and African vibrancy.  It was a slight challenge to find the right blend but in the end came together beautifully!  I laid the base colors of gray and yellow (French influence) and added pops of orange and purple (African influence).  I had fun with this unique palette!

Master Bath Remodel: Before and After

I have another recent project reveal for you!  This bathroom remodel was so much fun because I got to do a bit of tile design, which I haven't been doing as much of lately. 

The original bathroom was designed about 20 years ago by another designer when my client was into the southwestern look. Notice all the salmon color...

My client wanted a more modern and spa-like feel without going too dark.  We brought in a lot of reflective material in the glass wall behind the Robern Uplift medicine cabinets.  We also used the glass in the waterfall effect in the shower.

I love how it turned out and so does the client, more importantly!  I'm ready for another!

Anatolia Remodel: Before and After- The Master Bedroom

The final reveal of the Anatolia Remodel is the Master Bedroom.  It was become such a nice retreat with new window coverings, new dresser and media stand, new corner chair and ottoman to lounge in, new lighting, new area rug that is velvety soft under foot and new bedding!

Anatolia Remodel: Before and After- The Great Room

Today's reveal for the Anatolia Remodel is the Great Room.  The owners weren't sure what to do with this space except they knew they wanted to keep Grandma's dining room set.

We opened the wall to the family room, added a little paint, recovered the dining chairs, changed out the boring builder light fixtures, added window coverings and new furnishings for a conversation area.  The room has a purpose now and looks great when guest arrive.

Anatolia Remodel: Before and After - The Family Room

A few weeks back I posted a teaser photo of one of the projects I just completed.  Here is the first reveal of the before and afters, as promised, of this fun remodel.  The scope of the project included taking a newly purchased home and furnishing the Family Room, Great Room and Master Bedroom.  Today's reveal is the Family Room.  We opened the wall between the Family Room and Great Room to allow more natural light into the Family Room which really felt small and closed in:

Ooh!  You even get a peak into the Great Room!  More on that later....

Chan Residence: Before and After

I spent Monday down in Las Vegas at the World Market Center looking at some great furniture and accessory vendors so I haven't had a lot of time to edit photos.  However, I did a quick pass on a few from the Chan Residence to bring you the beloved Before and Afters! It really is all that anyone asks to see anymore.  It gives the viewer such a great grasp as to the extent of the remodel.  This remodel included replacing the carpet with hardwood floors, a custom hounds tooth rug (love!), built-in cabinets, mixing new and existing furniture and accessorizing.  Take a look:
