Complete Renovation, Redondo Beach
This house was completely dismantled down to the bare studs. We removed some bearing walls to create an open space in the living room, kitchen, and dining room, and create cathedral ceilings. We added more living area for the master suite and changed the layout of the rest of the rooms and bathrooms.

The wall between the existing kitchen and the low leveled laundry was demolished.

SMART HOME SYSTEM
We wired the house to have seamless internet access throughout every room and patio by installing several Wi-Fi hot spots so that every wireless device has a strong connection. Every TV has an Apple TV with a wired connection so that the wireless devices are not affected. We installed a 4k video security camera system that records video locally.

This space was completely remodeled, and made bigger. A walking closet and bathroom with a beautiful free standing tub was added, definitely a great place to rest

Custom Pipe Metal Cover
Our client did not want to see a cold, complicated, and industrial-looking pipe installation while enjoying her rear patio. It took some creativity to address her request. We brainstormed and proposed a custom-built metal cover. She was happy and satisfied with the result.
