Repost from @blueanchorbuildingcompany Simplicity Repost from @blueanchorbuildingcompany Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication - and this kitchen is the perfect example. One of the first Henry Built Kitchens we ever made was back in the mid 2000s with John Lum and his team. Solid walnut bodies and doors, with Quartzite counters. Thanks to @henrybuilt on this beautiful collaboration! Kitchen: @henrybuilt Architect: @johnlumarch Stonework: @irg_stoneboutique

#TT to our Buena Vista project. This garden is a t #TT to our Buena Vista project. This garden is a transformative study of form and volume. It begins solidly in and of the earth, with strong rectangular forms arising and containing water, plantings and passage. The resulting garden feels powerful, monumental and visually compelling. Garden and house are linked at two elevations. Space is created and maximized by the stacking of program functions. Long views are made accessible from the deck above, while visual focus is created in the main garden.

How do you design and pick out paint colors to go How do you design and pick out paint colors to go with cherry wood and red-colored or red-stained wood? "By treating cherry wood as an architectural material‚ for cabinetry, trim, casework—one can achieve a more contemporary feel and look," Lum comments. "For more contemporary interiors, a light blue or gray color will give a more energetic feel to make the cherry wood pop." — @thespruceofficial To learn more, read the article: https://www.thespruce.com/what-color-paint-with-cherry-wood-5442898 📸: @dyerphoto #designtips #cherrywood #redwood #architecturalmaterials #interiordesign #interiorarchitecture

With less than 4 months to complete the task, time was our biggest challenge. With our planning and collaboration with the architecture team, we were able to move them in, on time and under budget. . . . . . #construction #interiordesign #sanfrancisco #craftmanship #architecture #architecturelovers #contractors #remodeling #twinpeaks #constructionmanagement #luxury #marincounty
