Luxury can come in many forms. In this Master Suite it shows itself through soothing colors, a rich tapestry of textures, and comfort galore. Hidden indulgences such as heated tile floors, motorized shades, and beefed-up insulation pamper the homeowners with the ease and coziness they were seeking. Work-horse tile exudes the opulence of marble with the ease of porcelain. Beautifully layered lighting amps up the illumination while bathing the space in warmth. The Suite further benefitted from the wonderful collection of art that the clients wished to have framed. The result? A Suite with tons of personality and a very personal touch.

Reuse of homeowners furniture piece (painted white), with onyx top and self rimming sink. New tub and wainscoting, custom built-in storage above the tub. Custom mirror made for existing mirror frame that was cut down to fit the existing bathroom space.

A black glass Geberit Monolith toilet lends a sleek style to this masculine powder room.

This is a walnut burl vanity that we custom-made. We worked closely with the homeowner and architects to achieve the look they wanted. This walnut burl veneer was hand stitched by our craftsmen. There is a nice curve on the face of this vanity that really makes a statement. Photo Melis Kemp

In the summer of 2012 we embarked on a remodel of our 1912 Craftsman. We wanted to redo the kitchen and the upper floor which contained the master bedroom, bathroom, guest room and office. We interviewed approximately 5 other architects prior to finding Mark. We knew right away he was the right person for the job. He was patient, thorough and we could tell he truly loved our home and wanted to work with us to make it even better. His vast experience showed through during the interview process which validated his portfolio. Mark truly became a trusted advisor who would guide us through this remodel process from beginning to end. His planning was precise and he came by many times to re-measure to get every detail accounted for. He was patient and helpful as we made decisions and then changed our minds! He was with us every week of the 10 weeks of the remodel. He attended each weekly meeting with the General Contractor and was at the house numerous other times guiding and really looking out for our best interests. I came to trust him enough to ask his opinion on almost everything from layout to colors and decorating tips! He consistently threw out ideas....many of which we took. Additionally Mark was a tremendous help in referring us to contractors, designers, and retailers to help us along the way. I am ecstatic over the results of the remodel. The kitchen and bath are truly beautiful and full of modern conveniences while maintaining the integrity of the 1912 structure. We were right about our decision to hire Mark and we wholehearted recommend him as an outstanding architect, and more!!
