Kitchen Remodel
130 sq. ft.
Berkeley, CA
2019
A historic kitchen was refreshed as an optimized family space. This Berkeley kitchen began compact and cramped. With no option for expanding square footage, layout changes were proposed to give more breathing room and much-needed additional storage. Doorways and other architectural features were redesigned to restore some of the home's historic charm.
Willow Creek Cottage
550 sq. ft.
Jenner, CA
2020
As an unplanned full-time residence during the pandemic, this mini-remodel provided a quick refresh and some modern amenities to the delicate hundred-year old cabin. After nearly 100 years within the same family and only limited use in recent years, the cabin transformed to a cozy family-ready space with improvements made to appliances and fixtures, room layouts and finishes. The home maintains its rustic charm and historic character while now offering a few necessary conveniences. The cabin fosters togetherness with flexible sleeping options, including a bunk room and lofts that altogether accommodate up to eight guests.
Midcentury ADU
1,064 sq. ft.
Menlo Park, CA
2020
A new detached ADU structure maximizes livability for a multi-generational family at this serene midcentury site. Both an ADU and Junior ADU were added to the property in keeping with the existing midcentury-home and beautiful, sprawling yard.
Woodside Ranch ADU
1,064 sq. ft.
Woodside, CA
2019
This ADU is a fitting addition to a pastoral California property. The structures sit comfortably across the landscape with the new ADU close to the existing ranch home, separated by redesigned outdoor spaces.
