Here’s a sneak peek at our kitchen remodel that is nearly complete, just waiting on new chairs, stools, and a dining room pendant to tie the space together.

Raising a family is part organization and part time management, at least those were our observations when approaching the kitchen design for this Cedar Mills residence. One of the most important goals was providing additional storage while maintaining flow and function of the space.

With so much centering around the kitchen these days that means overlapping programs from different members of the household. The kitchen can be a sanctuary for some, a place for studying and doing homework, or a gathering space when hosting parties - (everyone always gravitates to the kitchen island!). The kitchen is the heart of the home that greets you in the morning, and should inspire you with a beautiful design throughout the day.

The design included a larger pass through window from the kitchen to the exterior patio complete with an exterior bar counter. All new walnut casework throughout, new counters, lighting, and accent tile work behind the sink. Our favorite feature is the new coffee station and drink bar that turned a morning routine into an experience. With the help of a digital family calendar, it turned this wall into an organized eye catching moment.

With the few remaining items needed for completion, this kitchen remodel completely transformed the space into an open, airy and sophisticated experience. The best part was seeing empty cupboards, a good sign that the extra storage goal was met.

We can’t wait to start the primary bath remodel next!

Located in Monmouth, Oregon, the inspiration for this custom residential home came from the prohibition era as Monmouth was the last dry city along the west coast. The concerted efforts by city officials to enforce social order was a form of control, a set of rules imposed on the population. With order inevitably comes rebellion and disorderly conduct. However, order can also bring harmony through repetition, cleanliness in standardization, and uniformity.

The house design is segmented by vertical load bearing walls, parapets that rise above the roof forms creating a sense of order between programmatic living sections. Within that order is rebellion and chaos as each segment varies in height and width. Order and chaos each fighting for dominance creates harmony in the building form and function.

What once was a customs house built after 1869 is now a popular cafe and bar located directly on the waterway. The Neo-gothic brick structure is now a heritage monument located in the heart of Hamburg, Germany’s famous warehouse district.

If viewed from the street, one would never know the structure touches the canal via staircases weaving through massive stone columns. The frozen waterway makes it all the more magical.

Our second derm clinic with Defining Dermatology is now open! Check out D(x)D in Stanwood, Washington for all your medical and cosmetic needs.

This location may not have been as intensive as the Portland buildout, but it was still important to maintain the brand aesthetic and signature green of the original D(x)D. Clean, bright and sterile (but not dull) were the driving factors for the interior design at this space. Vinyl wayfinding graphics with meaningful clinic names carried over into this space, along with the floating glass shelves for product and foliage display, all drawing the eye to the floating aluminum D(x)D logo.

Cheers to the second location and many more years of success and growth .omarqutub !
