What were your clients looking to update and why?
They were looking to remodel the entire basement to add a larger family room, bar, bunk room, office, and bathroom. The rest of the home focused on mainly cosmetic updates, space planning, and new furnishings and accessories.
What was the process like for this project?
Since this is remodel, we had to start by figuring out what the scope of the project was and what the clients were looking for. After meeting with them, talking through how they’ll be using their home, and honing in on their style, we moved into the design set phase. The general contractors then take over and we act as their right hand with anything they need design related. Once construction was finishing up, we went through the same process for furnishings.
What’s something unique about this remodel?
This ski-in, ski-out home was built in 1975. You can see how different these spaces feel simply by updating the floors, paint, and ceiling.

What were they looking to update and why?
The clients were looking to update the kitchen and living spaces on the main floor, the place where they gather and entertain most. We pushed the kitchen island out, created a custom wet bar, updated to neutral washed cabinets, lighter tile, and new hardware. We also stripped the dark, traditional look of the log accent wall and added a neutral wash to make the room look larger and brighter. All the details and pieces were thoughtfully chosen to reflect their lifestyle and aesthetic.
What’s something unique about this remodel?
Textures play a huge role in making a space warm, inviting ,and unique. We were able to work with our clients to design stunning, custom area rugs which tied it all together.

Everything besides the roof and the walls. We completely stripped the house down to the studs. We rebuilt the existing garage to create 3 new bedrooms, added a new garage with a rooftop deck, ripped out the original bedrooms to be an entertaining space and incorporated an open concept in the kitchen, living and dining areas. The clients wanted more sleeping capacity, a new master bedroom larger than the existing bedrooms, and fun areas for gathering.
What’s something unique about this remodel?
When we use the term, “remodel” or “renovation”, it’s typically a change to a portion of the home. An addition is a singular space that’s added, like a new master suite or new garage. This home is a remodel with an addition, making it unique in itself. The project was a lot like a new construction build because of its huge undertaking and we’re doing so much.
