Before and After 2

 We hope everyone had a great weekend!  Here is small renovation and staging we did for a client who is about to put the house on the market.  The house has a great Ocean view and beautifully landscaped yard, and located in pristine Lions Bay.   Be sure to check back as there will be more photo's to follow.

CAKE!

Just when you think Friday couldn't get any better, another happy client drops off CAKE!  KCD would like to wish everyone a happy weekend, and cheers to the first day of summer!

Garage Sale

I'm not really into garage sales, but I might attend this one;

Kitchen Dreams

The functionality of kitchens has diversified quite a bit, gone are the days where if you were in the kitchen you would be ostracized from the rest of your family.  Kitchens of today are the base of operation and serve as multifunctional, social spaces where you'll find, kids doing homework,  families catching up with each other and we all know the sign of a good party, is when everyone ends up in the kitchen.

Here is one of our favorite kitchen renovations.

Goals

Setting goals for yourself is an important part of personal development,  goals keep you focused and on the right track.  One of my design related goals is one day to purchase a Eames Lounge Chair.  For me it was love at first sight, and to this day no chair gets me excited enough to run over and sit in it.  I love the chair for its ability to seamlessly fit into any space, and its iconic presence bring a level of mature respectability to any space.

Patio Bliss

With all the beautiful weather we've been having lately, we thought we'd show you some of our favorite patios we've had the pleasure of working on.  Often neglected, patio's are still an extension of your home and outdoor living space and can really compliment your home.   Here are some patios I'm sure you wouldn't have too much trouble picturing yourself on.
