New Client

We have a new client down in Hollywood. It's official, we have stepped into the game big time! Probably no photos of this project, but updates for sure!

South Bay Project

The South Bay project is coming along. We are about to jump in with both feet in about a week or so. If all goes well we should be finished my Mid May or so....photos coming soon.

Some very interesting news is coming soon....perhaps our most high profile client is in the works right now & we cant wait to tell you more....stay tuned!

Published Again

In the Jan/Feb 2009 issue of California Home and Design, the Academy of Art University team was published again. The photo is located on Page 142, with some help from Photoshop I updated the photo that they decided to use. Their selection was not very flattering so I swapped it for a photo taken by http://www.unniphotography.com/.

Enjoy!

New Project!!

We just got a new project in the South Bay. It will be a very challenging kitchen update. All of the existing cabinets need to stay because of structural integrity of the house. The home was built in 1922 and the construction is very reflective of that time period, we are going to have to be very creative in our approach and really think differently.

We will keep you updated with photos and progress as it happens!

Also, on the horizon....3 more projects might be coming our way....fingers crossed!

Old Hollywood Style

Ann Sacks has an incredible tile collection called Beau Monde. The new design for the collection is called 'Rose' and it is a combination of heavenly crème, thassos, rosa portugalo and rainbow onyx. Each piece of the 'Rose' is water jet cut, refined by hand and then pieced together in a mosaic format....the end result is amazing!!!

Here is a link to Ann Sacks' video that describes the process:

Random Inspiration....it comes from everywhere....even theme parks

I recently took a trip to Florida for a family gathering. While we were in the area we took a side trip to Walt Disney World; we had been several times before and I remembered our meals at The Brown Derby ( modeled after the original in Los Angeles ). I thought about how great the design was and how timeless and emotionally charged the enviroment was. I thought I should share a few of my favorite photos and details from inside the restaurant.






Here are some from the inside of the Tower of Terror...
