Whether your Condo, Villa or Townhouse needs a face-lift (be it minor or complex) or you simply want a change of pace, we are experts at working wonders on any home, even those with tight budget restrictions. First, we evaluate what can be accomplished given existing conditions such as ceiling heights, hidden plumbing, electrical & a/c ducts, etc. Then, working around existing conditions, we design a plan that maximizes the best possible options for your home. Working in coordination with outstanding local Contractors, our Customers have been thrilled when they see just how creative, beautiful and interesting a new renovation has enhanced and transformed their existing home. Sometimes even the most minor in changes can make a huge difference: from simply changing paint-color schemes, adding crown-moulding, changing flooring (new carpet, tile or wood flooring), to the most complex renovations, in which old cabinetry, wall & shower tile, flooring, doors, windows, plumbing fixtures, lighting fixtures, appliances, door hardware, etc. are removed & replaced with new and perfectly coordinated materials & fixtures. Please meet with us at your Condo, Villa or home so that we may show you our exciting ideas for your residence. Examples of some of our renovated designed condos & villas shown below:

Our Proposed Design for the North Wall of Kitchen
Problem Solving: Our Design removed the existing ceiling soffit, relocating & re-directed utilities & air ductwork where able, to expose as much ceiling as possible in the Kitchen, thereby gaining 'height'. Also, our design combined electrical & utilities in wall next to person shown above, and around existing un-removable 6" pipe, ganging them into the vertical round column to 'open up' this space.

Our Proposed Design for the view of Kitchen from Living and Dining Rooms
Bathroom
Problem Solving: Our Design removed the entire upper portion of the existing wall which blocks critical natural day-light from this tiny bathroom, and made the existing bathroom feel 'closed-in'. Also added a few inches of length to remaining portion of same wall to help 'hide' toilet from view. Replaced outdated and worn cabinets, top & faucet with new louvered cabinets, updated hardware, and new sink, faucet, mirror, light fixture, and our custom-designed wall & back-splash tile layouts/patterns.
