Artist’s Retreat
Artist's Retreat
The homeowners love the Pacific Northwest forest feel of their location and wanted to bring those elements into their Kitchen. We removed their peninsula-style Kitchen and completely transformed the look, function and size. The full-height backsplash tile is a clean look that brings in color and frames the view out of the windows. We also transformed the unfinished shed into an art studio, providing a functional retreat for the homeowners.
“The house is so comfortable and welcoming and I feel very privileged to live in such a lovely place. The Aeroseal was a major advantage. Considering the house was partly constructed out of toothpicks, it is now a warm house, which is easy to heat. Also, we get ZERO insects in the house! ”

Project Details
Maximum Storage
Our designer adapted the kitchen design to the existing window locations and placed lower cabinets below the larger window to increase the counters and storage space.
Corner Pull-out
In order to solve the problem of unused corner cabinet space, we often install a Kessebohmer LeMans storage organizer. This cabinet organizer swings the contents out in front for ease of access. We also installed a large window behind the sink to maximize daylight and take advantage of the view of the tranquil landscape.
Art Studio
We converted the existing shed into a fully heated, insulated, functional art studio. Barn doors were replaced with beautiful French doors, creating a more accessible entrance. The rafters were painted blue to match the floor, creating a cohesive look.

“Always very satisfied. Will certainly have you again when needed.”
Pat Wallace, Corvallis
“We felt our ideas were listened to, incorporated, and enhanced in the final plans. Elizabeth did a nice job adding architectural interest with the arch above the stove and continuing that feature in the new opening connecting the living room to dining space. Eliminating the wall between dining room & kitchen allowed for a much better flow addressing our desire for a more spacious-looking interior without adding additional space. The hot tub cover is a special feature that enhances our ability to use it daily. And creating a space for the washer/dryer in the house instead of the garage was a real win. ”
