What a dreamy transformation of a dull kitchen and drab guest bathroom! The guest bathroom was also gutted and reinvented! We tore out the old shower, and built a larger, walk-in shower with a curb. Our clients sought after a relaxing spa-like feel in their bathroom. Pebble tile, green tinted glass, and waterfall features in the shower highlight the spa feel. New Medallion cabinets with an Islander Sheer finish, embrace a feeling of tranquility. Pure serenity. Are you thinking about remodeling your kitchen and bathroom? We offer complimentary design consultations! Call us today to schedule yours! 602-428-6112 www.CustomCreativeRemodeling.com

This duplex conversion took a marginal property in North Portland and transformed it into a celebration of sustainability, affordability and design quality. Featured on the Build It Green! Home Tour 2010, the project was a design-build collaboration between design-savvy clients, Hammer and Hand, and Departure Design. The project showcases affordable and green kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, and re-imagined living and bedroom space.

Designed for a young girl, this funky yellow and plum purple bedroom design is fresh and will last her for many years. The custom headboard, window cornices, and pillows as well as the ghost chair are a few of the details that pull the whole design together.

This small tract home backyard was transformed into a lively breathable garden. A new outdoor living room was created, with silver-grey brazilian slate flooring, and a smooth integral pewter colored concrete wall defining and retaining earth around it. A water feature is the backdrop to this outdoor room extending the flooring material (slate) into the vertical plane covering a wall that houses three playful stainless steel spouts that spill water into a large basin. Koi Fish, Gold fish and water plants bring a new mini ecosystem of life, and provide a focal point and meditational environment. The integral colored concrete wall begins at the main water feature and weaves to the south west corner of the yard where water once again emerges out of a 4” stainless steel channel; reinforcing the notion that this garden backs up against a natural spring. The stainless steel channel also provides children with an opportunity to safely play with water by floating toy boats down the channel. At the north eastern end of the integral colored concrete wall, a warm western red cedar bench extends perpendicular out from the water feature on the outside of the slate patio maximizing seating space in the limited size garden. Natural rusting Cor-ten steel fencing adds a layer of interest throughout the garden softening the 6’ high surrounding fencing and helping to carry the users eye from the ground plane up past the fence lines into the horizon; the cor-ten steel also acts as a ribbon, tie-ing the multiple spaces together in this garden. The plant palette uses grasses and rushes to further establish in the subconscious that a natural water source does exist. Planting was performed outside of the wire fence to connect the new landscape to the existing open space; this was successfully done by using perennials and grasses whose foliage matches that of the native hillside, blurring the boundary line of the garden and aesthetically extending the backyard up into the adjacent open space.
