East Sac Post-War
Originally the client’s grandparents’ home, the 1300-square-foot house built in 1949, got a whole-house refresh without changing the existing footprint. They entrusted us to preserve the charm and relevance to the post-war neighborhood, while integrating modern design elements and updating finishes throughout.

Kitchen
Integrated appliances blend with the cabinets, and sleek edge pulls help make the kitchen look and feel more steamlined while the avocado green floor tile brings in the retro feeling they love.
We maximized the space by the back door by narrowing the cabinet depth, which allowed for additional storage while maintaining functionality. By blending open shelving with closed cabinetry, we achieved a balance between practical storage and an airy, open feel in a small space.
DINING ROOM
The doorway was widened into the kitchen created a stronger connection to the dining room without sacrificing cabinet space. We added drama by painting the walls a deep wine color and continued it on to the custom arched wall-to-wall cabinetry.
PRIMARY BATH
In the main bathroom, we prioritized functionality and quality materials to make the most of the limited space. Despite the size constraint challenges, we were able to give the clients a separate soaking tub and shower to meet their wishlist.
POWDER BATH
This narrow powder room was added in the third bedroom and we wanted to have fun with it. We accomplished this with a bold geometric wallpaper offset by a bright orange wall-mounted sink and a matte white faucet.
