A sharper image
Just a landing...
...where a deck should be
Original kitchen
Now we're cooking
Closed-in kitchen
Let it flow
Now who put that wall there?
Views, not walls
Wood stoves are nice and all...
Just not where a dining room should be
Nice but missing something...
... our wood stove, where it belongs
Once upon a time that tile was in style
Switching to that timeless look
Master BR with a closet....
Where the bed should be (views for breakfast)
Old master, but not a suite
New master, ensuite
Slightly sad studio
Spiffed-up studio

A 50s bungalow and lawn
Welcome to the 2020's!
What's in that white box?
It's a kitchen!
A time capsule in green (linoleum!)
A study in fresh and function
Ye olde master, bright but cramped
Master 2.0, let the outside in!
A bath from another time
A new clean classic for today

New beginnings
Hoops anyone?
Better yet, a brand new deck
The old country kitchen
City cooking, country style
Dated but solid wood cabinets
Paint it black
Living room. The difference...
...is in the details
From dark and dated...
...to bright and inviting
From (extra) dark space...
...to an office with a view!
Old master/library
Updated with new reading nook
From the quaint approach....
... to the sleek subway look
An old art studio...
...waiting for the modern touch
From workshop-worthy...

New "arty" outdoor shower
A tear down?
Much better yet, a new old barn
Country livin'

A dreary palette
A fresh coat of Craftsman blue

Still original, only better
New kitchen to dining to deck flow
The new cozy industrial vibe
New 2nd floor master
New master bath ensuite
A backside to forget

A study in open space
Open space, continued
Breakfast and bed

1444 Stannage Ave, Berkeley

A little old bungalow
Ready for a refresh
A tired old entrance
Come on in!
Living room to short order kitchen?
Let there be light!
That short order kitchen
That new kitchen
Kitchen close up
The re-animated bath
Ready for a soak?
From janky stoop...
...to sunny deck
From old shack...
...to Western Chic
Inside shack
Inside chic

1079 61st St, Oakland

The basics
With flair and a fresh coat
From cheapo Home Depot...
...to era appropriate entrance
Well, that is a kitchen
But that's a better kitchen
A study in blah
Brighten up that bedroom!
The beige bath department...
... vs. the better bath bureau
Chain link, anyone?
The wood look wins
Open is not always inviting
Ah, now that feels better
