Beacham ArchitectsExtension and refurbishment of a semi-detached house in Hern Hill.
Extensions are modern using modern materials whilst being respectful to the original house and surrounding fabric.
Views to the treetops beyond draw occupants from the entrance, through the house and down to the double height kitchen at garden level.
From the playroom window seat on the upper level, children (and adults) can climb onto a play-net suspended over the dining table.
The mezzanine library structure hangs from the roof apex with steel structure exposed, a place to relax or work with garden views and light. More on this - the built-in library joinery becomes part of the architecture as a storage wall and transforms into a gorgeous place to work looking out to the trees. There is also a sofa under large skylights to chill and read.
The kitchen and dining space has a Z-shaped double height space running through it with a full height pantry storage wall, large window seat and exposed brickwork running from inside to outside. The windows have slim frames and also stack fully for a fully indoor outdoor feel.
A holistic retrofit of the house provides a full thermal upgrade and passive stack ventilation throughout. The floor area of the house was doubled from 115m2 to 230m2 as part of the full house refurbishment and extension project.
A huge master bathroom is achieved with a freestanding bath, double sink, double shower and fantastic views without being overlooked.
The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe room with its own window.
The children's bathroom is fun with under the sea wallpaper as well as a separate shower and eaves bath tub under the skylight making great use of the eaves space.
The loft extension makes maximum use of the eaves to create two double bedrooms, an additional single eaves guest room / study and the eaves family bathroom.
5 bedrooms upstairs.
York House DesignsThis mesmerising floor in marble herringbone tiles, echos the Art Deco style with its stunning colour palette. Embracing our clients openness to sustainability, we installed a unique cabinet and marble sink, which was repurposed into a standout bathroom feature with its intricate detailing and extensive storage.
Lydia Allen InteriorsInspiration for a small eclectic bathroom in Cornwall with white cabinets, a wall mounted toilet, ceramic tiles, ceramic flooring, feature lighting, a single sink, a built-in bath, a shower/bath combination, green tiles, green walls, quartz worktops, grey floors, a hinged door, white worktops and a freestanding vanity unit.
Cathie Hong InteriorsThis project was a joy to work on, as we married our firm’s modern design aesthetic with the client’s more traditional and rustic taste. We gave new life to all three bathrooms in her home, making better use of the space in the powder bathroom, optimizing the layout for a brother & sister to share a hall bath, and updating the primary bathroom with a large curbless walk-in shower and luxurious clawfoot tub. Though each bathroom has its own personality, we kept the palette cohesive throughout all three.
Hercules Design BuildThe newly remodeled hall bath was made more spacious with the addition of a wall-hung toilet. The soffit at the tub was removed, making the space more open and bright. The bold black and white tile and fixtures paired with the green walls matched the homeowners' personality and style.

This unit, located in a 4-flat owned by TKS Owners Jeff and Susan Klimala, was remodeled as their personal pied-à-terre, and doubles as an Airbnb property when they are not using it. Jeff and Susan were drawn to the location of the building, a vibrant Chicago neighborhood, 4 blocks from Wrigley Field, as well as to the vintage charm of the 1890’s building. The entire 2 bed, 2 bath unit was renovated and furnished, including the kitchen, with a specific Parisian vibe in mind.
Although the location and vintage charm were all there, the building was not in ideal shape -- the mechanicals -- from HVAC, to electrical, plumbing, to needed structural updates, peeling plaster, out of level floors, the list was long. Susan and Jeff drew on their expertise to update the issues behind the walls while also preserving much of the original charm that attracted them to the building in the first place -- heart pine floors, vintage mouldings, pocket doors and transoms.
Because this unit was going to be primarily used as an Airbnb, the Klimalas wanted to make it beautiful, maintain the character of the building, while also specifying materials that would last and wouldn’t break the budget. Susan enjoyed the hunt of specifying these items and still coming up with a cohesive creative space that feels a bit French in flavor.
Parisian style décor is all about casual elegance and an eclectic mix of old and new. Susan had fun sourcing some more personal pieces of artwork for the space, creating a dramatic black, white and moody green color scheme for the kitchen and highlighting the living room with pieces to showcase the vintage fireplace and pocket doors.

Harris Renovations, LLCWhat was once a dark, unwelcoming alcove is now a bright, luxurious haven. The over-sized soaker fills this extra large space and is complimented with 3 x 12 subway tiles. The contrasting grout color speaks to the black fixtures and accents throughout the room. We love the custom-sized niches that perfectly hold the client's "jellies and jams."
White Sands Coastal DevelopmentIn Southern California there are pockets of darling cottages built in the early 20th century that we like to call jewelry boxes. They are quaint, full of charm and usually a bit cramped. Our clients have a growing family and needed a modern, functional home. They opted for a renovation that directly addressed their concerns.
When we first saw this 2,170 square-foot 3-bedroom beach cottage, the front door opened directly into a staircase and a dead-end hallway. The kitchen was cramped, the living room was claustrophobic and everything felt dark and dated.
The big picture items included pitching the living room ceiling to create space and taking down a kitchen wall. We added a French oven and luxury range that the wife had always dreamed about, a custom vent hood, and custom-paneled appliances.
We added a downstairs half-bath for guests (entirely designed around its whimsical wallpaper) and converted one of the existing bathrooms into a Jack-and-Jill, connecting the kids’ bedrooms, with double sinks and a closed-off toilet and shower for privacy.
In the bathrooms, we added white marble floors and wainscoting. We created storage throughout the home with custom-cabinets, new closets and built-ins, such as bookcases, desks and shelving.
White Sands Design/Build furnished the entire cottage mostly with commissioned pieces, including a custom dining table and upholstered chairs. We updated light fixtures and added brass hardware throughout, to create a vintage, bo-ho vibe.
The best thing about this cottage is the charming backyard accessory dwelling unit (ADU), designed in the same style as the larger structure. In order to keep the ADU it was necessary to renovate less than 50% of the main home, which took some serious strategy, otherwise the non-conforming ADU would need to be torn out. We renovated the bathroom with white walls and pine flooring, transforming it into a get-away that will grow with the girls.
TVL Creative Ltd.Our client’s charming cottage was no longer meeting the needs of their family. We needed to give them more space but not lose the quaint characteristics that make this little historic home so unique. So we didn’t go up, and we didn’t go wide, instead we took this master suite addition straight out into the backyard and maintained 100% of the original historic façade.
Master Suite
This master suite is truly a private retreat. We were able to create a variety of zones in this suite to allow room for a good night’s sleep, reading by a roaring fire, or catching up on correspondence. The fireplace became the real focal point in this suite. Wrapped in herringbone whitewashed wood planks and accented with a dark stone hearth and wood mantle, we can’t take our eyes off this beauty. With its own private deck and access to the backyard, there is really no reason to ever leave this little sanctuary.
Master Bathroom
The master bathroom meets all the homeowner’s modern needs but has plenty of cozy accents that make it feel right at home in the rest of the space. A natural wood vanity with a mixture of brass and bronze metals gives us the right amount of warmth, and contrasts beautifully with the off-white floor tile and its vintage hex shape. Now the shower is where we had a little fun, we introduced the soft matte blue/green tile with satin brass accents, and solid quartz floor (do you see those veins?!). And the commode room is where we had a lot fun, the leopard print wallpaper gives us all lux vibes (rawr!) and pairs just perfectly with the hex floor tile and vintage door hardware.
Hall Bathroom
We wanted the hall bathroom to drip with vintage charm as well but opted to play with a simpler color palette in this space. We utilized black and white tile with fun patterns (like the little boarder on the floor) and kept this room feeling crisp and bright.

Background/description: The house was built in 1908, my clients are only the 3rd owners of the house. The prior owner lived there from 1940s until she died at age of 98! The old home had loads of character and charm but was in pretty bad condition and desperately needed updates. The clients purchased the home a few years ago and did some work before they moved in (roof, HVAC, electrical) but decided to live in the house for a 6 months or so before embarking on the next renovation phase. I had worked with the clients previously on the wife's office space and a few projects in a previous home including the nursery design for their first child so they reached out when they were ready to start thinking about the interior renovations. The goal was to respect and enhance the historic architecture of the home but make the spaces more functional for this couple with two small kids. Clients were open to color and some more bold/unexpected design choices. The design style is updated traditional with some eclectic elements. An early design decision was to incorporate a dark colored french range which would be the focal point of the kitchen and to do dark high gloss lacquered cabinets in the adjacent coffee bar, and we ultimately went with dark green.

Ron and Kathy Chaisson have lived in many homes throughout Orange County, including three homes on the Balboa Peninsula and one at Pelican Crest. But when the “kind of retired” couple, as they describe their current status, decided to finally build their ultimate dream house in the flower streets of Corona del Mar, they opted not to skimp on the amenities. “We wanted this house to have the features of a resort,” says Ron. “So we designed it to have a pool on the roof, five patios, a spa, a gym, water walls in the courtyard, fire-pits and steam showers.”
To bring that five-star level of luxury to their newly constructed home, the couple enlisted Orange County’s top talent, including our very own rock star design consultant Richard Bustos, who worked alongside interior designer Trish Steel and Patterson Custom Homes as well as Brandon Architects. Together the team created a 4,500 square-foot, five-bedroom, seven-and-a-half-bathroom contemporary house where R&R get top billing in almost every room. Two stories tall and with lots of open spaces, it manages to feel spacious despite its narrow location. And from its third floor patio, it boasts panoramic ocean views.
“Overall we wanted this to be contemporary, but we also wanted it to feel warm,” says Ron. Key to creating that look was Richard, who selected the primary pieces from our extensive portfolio of top-quality furnishings. Richard also focused on clean lines and neutral colors to achieve the couple’s modern aesthetic, while allowing both the home’s gorgeous views and Kathy’s art to take center stage.
As for that mahogany-lined elevator? “It’s a requirement,” states Ron. “With three levels, and lots of entertaining, we need that elevator for keeping the bar stocked up at the cabana, and for our big barbecue parties.” He adds, “my wife wears high heels a lot of the time, so riding the elevator instead of taking the stairs makes life that much better for her.”
Design Set MatchThis tiny bathroom wanted accessibility for living in a forever home. French Noir styling perfectly fit this 1930's home with modern touches like curved corners on the mirrored medicine cabinet, black grid framing on the shower glass, and an adjustable hand shower on the same bar as the rain shower head. The biggest challenges were finding a sink with some countertop space that would meet code clearance requirements to the corner of the closet in the adjacent room.

Отправной точкой в идейном и стилистическом направлении послужила давняя мечта заказчиков жить не просто в новом доме, а создать дом с историей. Интересно, что еще задолго до строительства заказчица получила в подарок прелестные вазоны 18 века, можно сказать с них все и началось. Вместе с заказчиком мы объехали несколько стран в поиске нужных предметов, что-то привезли сами из поездок. Работали с антикваром в Париже. Нами было подобрано искусство близкое по духу.
Владельцы дома - Успешные предприниматели и энергичные люди средних лет, живущие вдвоем, но часто принимающие в гостях своих детей, внуков, родственников и друзей. Предпочитают слушать хорошую музыку на виниле, собираться шумной компанией в кабинете главы семейства, хозяйка дома играет на барабанах, при чем их группа даже сделала камерный концерт «для своих» прямо в гостиной после сдачи объекта. Главное пожелание было создать интерьер с ощущением, что в этом доме прожило уже несколько поколений семейства, создать дом с историей семьи и ее духом.
Основной функциональной задачей было создать закрытую террасу-оранжерею, в которой можно было бы отдохнуть от городской суеты, трансформирующуюся в открытую веранду в теплое время года, спроектировать изразцовую печь, для приготовления блюд и создания особой атмосферы с помощью открытого огня.
Спроектировать кухню, объединённую с гостиной, таким образом, чтобы выделить немалое пространство для отдыха и релаксации у камина, без вмешательства в пространство приготовления блюд.
Так же необходимо было проанализировать оптимальныt маршруты передвижения владельцев по дому, учесть все требования к приватным зонам и спроектировать их максимально комфортно и с учетом ритма жизни хозяев. Исходя из этого родилось планировочное решение, отвечающее требованиям всего семейства.
Планировка создавалась нами с нуля, так как мы вели проектирование с самого начала, еще до возведения конструкций. Поэтому все что было необходимо учесть мы учли на начальных этапах и необходимости в переносе стен и других конструкций не возникло.
Что касается систем хранения. К этому вопросу хозяева дома относятся очень щепетильно и взвешено. Поэтому мы организовали целое помещение площадью 30 м2 в подвальном этаже здания, для хранение сезонных вещей и постирочной, где располагаются как системы хранения, так и техника по уходу за одеждой.
В приватной зоне хозяев на первом этаже мы расположили гардеробную комнату, для хранения вещей владельцев дома.
При входе расположен большой шкаф, для верхней одежды, обуви и других предметов.
Под лестницей мы так же заложили большое пространство для хранения инвентаря для уборки.
Помимо этого, каждая жилая комната имеет внушительный платяной шкаф и другие системы хранения.
Отдельное место в проектировании занимает раздел освещения. Разработаны разные сценарии, как повседневный для уютных посиделок в семейном кругу, так и парадный вариант для встречи гостей. Так например в кухне-гостиной мы разместили две люстры с плафонами в несколько ярусов, т.к высота потолка восемь метров и добавили технический рассеянный свет. В зоне камина расположили две напольные лампы для придания уюта. В зоне кухни продумана подсветка рабочей поверхности. В приватных зонах дома так же использовался технический свет, люстры больше выполняют декоративную функцию, прикроватные лампы для чтения. В зоне террасы располагается верхний свет, люстра над столом, бра и настольные лампы в мягкой зоне.
Цветовая палитра дома выполнена преимущественно в светлых оттенках с добавлением акцентов. В главной парадной части дома палитра возникла из маленького образца ткани для портьер. В других помещениях отправными точками стали винтажные предметы мебели, ковры купленные на антикварных рынках. Стены мы оставили нейтральными чтобы со временем можно было менять настроение с помощью замены текстиля и оббивки мебели. Но одно помещение все же получилось отличным от остальных- это винотека. Там мы создали атмосферу камерную в достаточно насыщенных древесных оттенках, природных зеленых, терракотовых. Терраса получилась садом, и сама продиктовала спокойную серо-древесную гамму.
Предметы мебели тщательно подбирались на протяжении нескольких месяцев поиска. Заказчики очень любят предметы с историей, большинство винтажных привезли из Франции. Хотелось создать смесь Европы и Азии, мы побывали в Китае и привезли несколько аутентичных вещей. Многие вещи коллекционировались годами и были перевезены из прежнего дома. Столярные изделия выполнялись под заказ по нашим эскизам. Кухню заказывали у фабрики Scavollini. Два спальных гарнитура Francesco Pasi в спальне хозяев и гостевой спальне.
К выбору декора мы отнеслись с неменьшим энтузиазмом, получилось целое приключение, в котором участвовали мы и заказчики. Поиски были по разным странам, что-то куплено у нас. Сказать можно одно, что каждую вещь, что вы видите на снимках не была привезена на объект для красоты кадра, а это именно те предметы, которые живут в доме. Например, у заказчицы огромная коллекция фарфора.
Текстиль во многом предопределил интерьер в доме, его мы выбрали практически первым с чего и завязалась цветовая гамма. Ткани преимущественно использовались английские и французские.
Стиль интерьера предопределила архитектура дома, а прежде всего посыл заказчика.
Работали мы в команде с архитектором, т.к считаем важным создавать цельные, гармоничные проекты, где все слажено и дополняет друг друга. Определить стилевое направление достаточно сложно, мы создавали портрет обитателей этого дома с их характером, дом получился очень персонализированным. Но есть одна примечательная черта, в новый дом мы внесли оттенки старины, будто дом живет уже не одно десятилетие.
Как же без сложностей! Кто вам скажет, что можно построить дом мечты легко, слукавит! В процессе стройки возникает множество вопросов, которые требуют четкости, слаженной работы команды, компетентных подрядчиков. В этом проекте сложным узлом было проектирование лестницы и финишных покрытий. Мы перебрали не один вариант и никак не могли найти нужное решение. Но упорство и картинка в голове сделали свое дело, решение было найдено и воплощено в жизнь.
Сроки вместе с проектированием, стройкой дома и отделкой заняли 2,5 года.

Bathroom with Ceramic Tiles and All Types of Wall Treatment Ideas and Designs
Whether you’re doing a bathroom renovation or just a refresh; making your bathroom design brighter, cleaner and more attractive will make you feel happier to use it every day. If your bathroom is a small space in your home where you don’t spend much time, it’s time to think about alternatives. Browse the pictures to find inspiring bathroom ideas on Houzz, including stylish vanities, fancy toilets, taps, shower tiling, as well as storage ideas for small bathrooms. 
Shelves and shelving units, like ladder shelves, will give you extra space without taking up too much floor space. Also look for wire, wicker or fabric baskets, large and small, to store items under or next to the sink, or even on the wall. 
The sink, the mirror, shower and/or bath are the places where you might want the clearest and strongest light. You can use these if you want it to be bright and clear. Otherwise, you might want to look at some soft, ambient lighting in the form of chandeliers, short pendants or wall lamps. You could use accent lighting around your bath in the form to create a tranquil, spa feel, as well. 
How do I find bathroom ideas for my renovation?
If you’re starting your bathroom renovation from scratch, or ripping out and starting again, then once you’ve sorted the plan and the plumbing you’ll need to think about what kind of ideas you’d like. The easiest option is to get inspiration from bathroom professionals. However, if you’ve dreamt of a roll-top bath or a walk-in shower with heating at, then you might want to take longer looking for each item individually. Choosing all white elements will obviously tie everything together, but also think about the style you’re going for – ultra modern taps will clash with traditional Victorian-style wash basins. And it’s probably good to consider your flooring or surfaces, and walls to make sure everything will complement. Take a look through the different styles of bathroom designs on Houzz to get some inspiration. How do I select the right bathroom decor & furniture?
Selecting bathroom decor such as cabinets, mirrors, shelves or other furniture for bathrooms can be tricky. You want to consider the storage they offer while also making sure they make an attractive feature as you enter your bathroom. Don’t forget you need them to be durable and withstand the damp conditions, e.g. if you’re going for a painted cabinet make sure the paint is suitable for baths. For medicine cabinets you will find most have mirrored fronts, but you can find extra features such as clocks and shaving sockets built-in.What bathroom storage ideas should I look at?
While bathroom storage ideas is not the first thing you think of when it comes to bathrooms, you’ll be surprised at how much difference it makes when your bathroom is organised – specially if you’re dealing with a small bathroom, this is essential. We all know how accessories like bottles, toiletries, lotions and potions can pile up next to the bath. And where to put the cotton buds, painkillers, plasters, other medicine, creams and sanitary products? That’s not even considering using your bathroom as a place to store your towels and bathrobes. The first thing to consider when reviewing bathroom ideas is if you can invest in built-in bathroom storage. Large vanity units will have drawers and compartments to store a great number of toiletries and bathroom necessities, and if your bathroom or cloakroom has room for a built-in cupboard you can start storing small accessories and larger items there. If you can’t do anything on this scale, you could investigate built-in storage around the bath or look at less permanent options. Shelves and shelving units, like ladder shelves, will give you extra space without taking up too much floor space. Also look for wire, wicker or fabric baskets, large and small, to store items under or next to the sink, or even on the wall. What's the best ideas for lighting?
Water and electricity don’t mix, so make sure your bathroom lights are safe, first and foremost. There are actually regulations around what type of light fittings you can use and where – IP67 rating lights for submerged areas e.g. inside baths and sinks (Zone 0); IP65 for any area above a shower or bath (Zone 1); and IP44 rating for anything 0.6m from a bath or basin (Zone 2). After you’ve made sure your light fittings are safe and to-code, you can consider the type and style you’d like as your working through your bathroom ideas. The sink, the mirror, shower and/or bath are the places where you might want the clearest and strongest light. You can use these if you want it to be bright and clear. Otherwise, you might want to look at some soft, ambient lighting in the form of chandeliers, short pendants or wall lamps. You could use accent lighting around your bath in the form to create a tranquil, spa feel, as well. Bathroom tiles – what should I go for?
It’s rare to find bathrooms without tiles. Although it can be done with panelling, materials like tadelakt, waterproof paint, wallpaper or well-treated wood; bathroom tiles are so copious and easy to apply that it’s hard to avoid going with tiles in the bathroom. The great thing is that both floor tiles and wall tiles come in a huge variety of sizes, styles, colours and patterns, so you can remodel your room completely with whatever tile choices fit with your bathroom ideas. When it comes to flooring, tiles will be durable, easy to clean and deal well with water, but if you want something different you could go with modern concrete, traditional or country-style treated wooden floorboards, or a bit more quirky bamboo, cork or vinyl. What to do with small bathrooms?
The best small bathroom ideas will maximise the space you have. From installing a bidet to simple decorative tips there are plenty of things you can do to make it look bigger. Recessed shelves can make a huge difference both visually and practically to small bathrooms, so if you are able to have these installed when your walls are being renovated you could add some to your shower or sink area. You could choose pale colours and iridescent tiles that reflect the light, keep walls and ceilings the same colour and texture, and use complementary shades throughout the bathroom– fewer contrasts and transitions will help maintain the sense of space. Floating bathroom units also draw the eye to visible floor space underneath them, and clear glass shower screens will keep the room feeling open and airy. Finishing touches like artfully placed large mirrors will also make small bathrooms appear more expansive.1
