Category Winner: Modern/Contemporary Singular Space
This is a singular space that draws you in, beckoning you to pour a drink and stay awhile! Graceful lines with luxurious textures, materials, and furnishings were employed to create an adult-space within the home. The stunning wine wall illuminates for beautiful dinner parties, elevating the dining room to a luxurious level. The end result is a sophisticated, glamorous space nestled within the home, framed with stunning architectural detail, setting off the space beautifully.

Category Winner: Traditional/Transitional Bathroom
Creative solutions were implemented to bring these clients the master bathroom of their dreams! With the challenge of not moving existing plumbing, the designers incorporated custom vanities with a substantial furniture-like feel, to work perfectly for the existing space. The stunning shower tile, glistening light fixtures, and detailed hardware add a level of sophistication to this space reminiscent of old hollywood. The thoughtfully designed separate make-up vanity adds to the glamour and elegance.

Category Winner: Traditional/Transitional Singular Space
When our clients decided to put in a Home Bar within the guest quarters on their Historic Downtown Los Gatos property, we thought it was an amazing use of space! A dedicated space for overnight guests to make the stay comfortable for everyone, but also, a brilliant and beautiful feature for the homeowners themselves, to entertain or just hang out in style. With every inch of space used to perfection…it's Elevated Entertaining at it’s finest!
