Upland Full Kitchen Renovation

This renovation began with a closed-off kitchen and living space that lacked flow and natural light. Our clients—a young family—wanted something fresh, functional, and family-friendly. The solution? We opened up the floorplan to create a seamless, light-filled kitchen and living area that feels both modern and welcoming.

Anchored by a full suite of ZLINE appliances, this kitchen was designed to let the finishes shine. From the all-white cabinetry to the sleek porcelain countertops, every element was carefully selected to frame and enhance the beauty of the appliances.

Featured selections include:

A showstopping 60” built-in refrigerator and freezer with polished gold handles

A bold 48” ZLINE range paired with a custom ZLINE hood in matching gold trim

A built-in microwave, pot filler, and Kohler pull-down faucet for performance and polish

To add warmth, we installed light oak flooring throughout the space, balancing the clean palette with natural texture. At the entry, we replaced the original front door with a 42” modern upgrade, complete with an extra-long handle that ties into the kitchen’s elevated aesthetic.

The ZLINE Showcase is the perfect blend of luxury, livability, and statement-making design—crafted for a growing family who wanted both function and flair.

Modern Exterior Renovation

What began as a tired, rock-heavy yard is now a luxury, beach-inspired resort—right at home. Our client envisioned a space that felt like a getaway, and we delivered a complete transformation that blends comfort, style, and high-end functionality.

The heart of the project is a fully renovated pool, now finished in crisp white PebbleTec with a wireless Hayward system, color-changing LED lighting, and two waterfalls that bring movement and serenity to the space.

Adjacent to the pool, we created a dedicated floating seating area anchored by a porcelain-clad linear fire pit, offering a relaxing and stylish place to unwind poolside. Just beyond that, a 43’ x 19’ custom patio cover houses a second outdoor living zone—complete with a 60” gas fireplace, Lynx ceiling-mounted heaters, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen for effortless entertaining.

The outdoor kitchen, built right into the covered patio, features porcelain countertops and a full Lynx product suite:

42” Asado grill

45” gas grill

Single burner cooktop

Built-in sink with garbage disposal

Ice maker

Two glass-front under-counter refrigerators

For the ultimate backyard experience, we also installed a custom underground lift system for a 65” flat screen TV, allowing guests to watch the game from the spa, protected by a sleek custom cover.

And for the family’s four-legged friends? We created a thoughtful dog run, finished in smooth white plaster and covered with a corrugated roof—providing shade and comfort all year long.

This backyard was more than a renovation—it’s a resort-style lifestyle upgrade, designed with intention, elegance, and all the extras.

Paonazzo Marble Kitchen

In the City of Orange, California, this full kitchen renovation—paired with a 200 sq. ft. addition—completely transformed the way this home functions and feels. That small square footage gain made a huge impact, allowing us to open up what was once a maze of small rooms into a spacious, flowing kitchen and living area made for gathering.

Aesthetically grounded by eight slabs of stunning Paonazzo marble, the space is both refined and dramatic. The addition of arched hallway entries pays homage to timeless architectural charm, while Brizo black and gold finishes, including a sleek pot filler, bring in a bold layer of luxury.

The kitchen was built around Viking appliances, including a 60” range, tower-style refrigerator and freezer, and thoughtful additions like a plate warmer, under-cabinet refrigeration, and a dedicated coffee and beverage station. A 42” workstation sink anchors the prep area, and a 32-foot frameless glass door floods the space with light and seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

Designed and built for a pair of loving grandparents, The House of Paonazzo is more than just a kitchen—it’s a heart-of-the-home space built for hosting, storytelling, and creating memories for generations to come.

Riverside Second Story ADU

When our client made the decision to sell her Long Beach home, she wasn’t downsizing—she was upgrading her lifestyle. Nestled above her daughter’s home, this custom-built second-story ADU is a one-bedroom, one-bath retreat with all the comforts of independent living, beautifully integrated into the main residence.

Designed around the client’s love for Southwest-inspired aesthetics, the space features warm earth tones, curated finishes, and a dreamy walk-in closet with a built-in laundry area. Structural modifications were extensive—from foundation reinforcement to framing upgrades—but our team managed every trade, detail, and inspection to ensure a seamless build.

This ADU is more than an extension—it’s a sanctuary that brings family close while preserving privacy and personal style. Built with care and intention, The Sunset Nest is proof that home is wherever you feel most yourself.

Norco ADU

This 500 sq. ft. ADU, paired with a matching 500 sq. ft. garage, was thoughtfully built on a hillside lot in Norco, California—a location that added complexity (and excitement!) to the build, including the use of a crane to install the roof trusses. Designed as a one-bedroom, one-bath living space with dual mini splits for year-round comfort, this unit was created for a client who sold her Orange County home to invest in something closer to family while still maintaining her independence.

Every inch of this space was customized, managed, and built out by our team—from site prep to finish selection to final walkthrough. We worked closely with our client to ensure her new home felt peaceful, private, and personal—all within walking distance of her daughter’s home.

From foundation to finishes, the project took 8 months to complete, transforming an empty slope into a cozy, modern retreat that perfectly balances connection and autonomy.

Corona Modern Kitchen

This sleek, modern renovation features a bold black-and-white palette with striking black shaker cabinets and ultra-durable porcelain countertops that bring refined elegance to the heart of the home. A custom coffee bar and black finishes throughout add depth and cohesion, while a streamlined fireplace renovation ties the aesthetic seamlessly into the adjoining living space.

One standout feature is the Zip Water faucet system, chosen specifically for our tea-loving client from England, who wanted instant boiling water on demand—a thoughtful blend of style, function, and cultural comfort. The result is a minimalist, highly functional space with every detail curated to enhance daily rituals in a luxurious setting.
