Every kitchen redesign and remodeling project comes with its own set of challenges, and this one was no exception. With this particular kitchen in the beach community of Cardiff, located in the North County region of San Diego, California, our task was to take a small space and turn it into a usable, attractive, welcoming, and integral part of the house.

Move aside, tone-on-tone…it’s all about high contrast in this Santa Luz kitchen remodel. See how we used CoreTec, Cleaf and Quartz contertops to create a piano-inspired space for our music teacher clients!

Lights, camera, action! Lighting can make a huge difference in how a space looks and functions. Long gone are the days of teeny tiny island pendants and make way for the big, the bold and the bright! Here are our tips for selecting over the counter light fixtures.

Every late 90s early 2000's builder seemed to love the California Tuscan aesthetic, expecially in Southern California. Those homes are now approaching 20 years old. Here's how we tackled those architectural nuances with what we've dubbed as 'Spanish Modern' style. Patterned graphic tiles, earthy textures and reclaimed wood pull this space from dated to dreamy.

Although beautiful to look at, we know more than anyone that bright, white kitchens aren't the most kid-friendly. Dirt, grime and grubby fingerprints are enough to make any clean freak shake in their boots...but fear no more! We've made some smart design swaps in this kitchen remodel to cut down on child-sized damage and keep the family unit around for many more "pizza nights."
