KITCHEN
Do you know what you want? Ready to turn your inspiration photos into a reality? Now would be a great time to contact Kurt. He can work with you to determine how to maximize your budget and get the results that you are looking to achieve.
Do you know that you want to make changes but need some guidance? Kurt can help you visualize what is possible with varying levels of intervention. If you have a limited budget, changing or adapting a few choice elements while maintaining the original layout may give your kitchen the refresher that you are looking for. For example, you can reface cabinets by replacing doors and drawer fronts, change out drawer boxes and guides and add new cabinet accessories.
If you are interested in completely re-configuring and updating the space but are overwhelmed with the possibilities, Kurt can help you narrow it down.
Important design considerations for the Kitchen:
-
Cooking. Do you plan to cook many gourmet meals, do a lot of baking, or looking for more convenience when putting together busy weeknight meals? What are the appliances most important to you?
-
Entertaining. The kitchen is a natural gathering space at the heart of the home. Do you need a dedicated space for dining or serving many guests?
-
Layout. Can the configuration of your space be improved to better meet your needs? Do you see these needs changing in the future? Designs can reflect major life changes such as a growing family or accommodate aging in place.
-
Ergonomics. Cabinetry and appliances should be placed according to national standards to avoid unnecessary bending or stretching.
-
Ventilation. Proper ventilation reduces toxic emissions, and stuffy air so that you can spend time in your kitchen worry-free.
-
Storage. Reserve enough dedicated space to house your food, pantry, and kitchen accessories.
-
Style. Choose the counter tops, cabinetry, and flooring that reflect your design aesthetic. Popular kitchen design styles include: Industrial, Traditional, Transitional, Farmhouse, Craftsman, Modern and Contemporary.

Details. Don't underestimate the vibrancy that good lighting and hardware brings to a space.
BATHROOM
The master bathroom suite represents the ultimate retreat. It is a place where you can pamper yourself with all of the security and convenience of being in your own home. Do you find yourself dreaming of a freestanding soaking tub or relaxing in a jetted tub? Consider an investment in your bathroom as investing in yourself.
Do you cringe sending guests to the powder room because it is so outdated? Kurt can suggest many options that align with your style and transform the space into something that you are proud of.
Additionally, Kurt can help you modify your bathroom to your needs. If aging in place is something that you are considering, or if you need it to be ADA compliant, he'll work with you to make sure that you have everything you need, where it needs to be.
Important design considerations for the Bathroom:
-
Luxury. The bathroom is a relaxing getaway inside your home. What features are you interested in to treat yourself?
-
Beauty & Grooming. Do you need a dedicated space to get ready? How many outlets do you require?
-
Layout. Improved configuration of a compact space maximizes the amount of features you can fit in and allows more breathing room.
-
Ergonomics. Cabinetry should be placed according to national standards to avoid unnecessary bending or stretching.
-
Ventilation. Proper ventilation reduces humidity and stuffy air so that you can enjoy your bathroom for a long time.
-
Storage. Reserve enough dedicated space to house your towels, toiletries, and bathroom accessories.
-
Style. Choose the counter tops, cabinetry, and flooring that reflect your design aesthetic. Popular bathroom design styles include: Traditional, Craftsman, Farmhouse, Eclectic, Modern and Contemporary.

Details. Good lighting and hardware pulls the space together
CUSTOM FEATURES
When you hear cabinetry, the first thing that comes to mind may be kitchen or bathroom. However, built-in cabinetry can help solve storage issues in bedrooms, living or dining rooms. They can help you organize a pantry, closet, laundry room, or mud room.
Kurt can help you add to your home's value and realize its potential.
An underutilized space in the kitchen can be transformed into a kitchen nook. A window that gets good sunlight can be upgraded into a window seat.
If you are looking for drama and craftsmanship, Kurt is especially skilled with ceiling features, incorporating light and woodwork. His attention to detail is evident in his millwork (molding and trims).
Don't forget about Kurt's outdoor structures. They add valuable living space by allowing you space outdoors while protecting you from the sun and rain which is particularly important here in the Pacific Northwest.
Important design considerations for the Home:
-
Storage. If you find yourself lacking storage, customize your home to give each of your belongings a proper place.
-
Layout. Do you have areas of your house that you don't use because they don't "work"? Re-imagine areas so that you can use them.
-
Style. If you have a certain design aesthetic, custom features can tie everything together and make your home unique for you.
-
Lighting. If you have dark areas or important features that you want to highlight, add lighting to give your home varying light options.
-
Details. Proper materials combined with skilled craftsmanship make all of the difference in elevating a design solution into a work of art.
