Olivenhain Remodel
Chad describes this project…
It’s always a pleasure to do projects for people that are fun, intelligent and easy to collaborate with. These special clients are at the top of the list in all those categories.
We had a lot of fun utilizing existing materials on the project, such as the floors and the fireplaces. We were even able to keep existing window and wall locations in order to make the budget go a lot further on things that were important to them, such as high end appliances and a crafty indoor-outdoor space.
Because our clients have a large family and love to entertain in a big way, including ample seating and multiple vignettes for hanging out in our design was tantamount.
It’s easy to see that conversations and wine tasting will be effortless at one of their three new custom island/peninsula seating locations.
Things are well rounded off with their new built-in banquette for their more quaint day to day activities.
