Exposed wooden beams on the ceiling are an elegant architectural feature that adds charm and character to any home! Many older homes in San Diego already have a wood-beamed ceiling, but with the recent popularity of this style, many new homes are also being built with exposed wood beams. If you love this look, but your home doesn’t have this type of ceiling, DIY options are available! Below, we collected some of our favorite pieces of inspiration:

Design Trends: Kitchen Backsplash

Published on January 30, 2019 by susanmeyerspykecppLeave a comment

Updating your kitchen backsplash is a good way to revive the space and give it a fresh look. Especially if you have a tract home, this is a good way to make your kitchen stand out on resale. For the best results, don’t DIY unless you really know what you’re doing. Always work with a professional: we’d be happy to recommend some. And if you’re planning to sell your home in the future, don’t get too crazy with the tile design. It may turn off some buyers who can’t look past the tiles in the kitchen or who don’t want to invest the money to change it.

A large contemporary kitchen features a Calcutta marble waterfall kitchen island seating five white and gray upholstered counter stools sat on blonde wood floors lit by two nickel and glass diamond pendants hung from a tray ceiling.

The kitchen was remodelled and a long island bench installed to direct the eye through the house and out to the sunny courtyard.

Design Trends: Granite Composite Sinks

Published on November 19, 2018 by susanmeyerspykecppLeave a comment

Granite composite sinks are incredibly durable and stain resistant while also providing a sleek and modern environment to any kitchen. If you’re considering a granite composite sink, they are heavier than stainless steel sinks, so you may want to consider adding structural support to accommodate for the extra weight. Take a look below at a few granite composite sinks for inspiration!

Design Trends: Chevron Tile Layouts

Published on November 8, 2018 by susanmeyerspykecppLeave a comment

Chevron tile is one of the most popular design trends for homes at the moment. Chevron is a zigzag pattern that comes to a sharp point: imagine the letter “V” on repeat. The neat way the tiles fit together, the sharp central line where the V meets, and the textured zigzag horizontal pattern all work together to make this tile pattern super chic. Using slightly contrasting tiles colors to subtly define the zigzags, or blending block-color tiles with wood-look ones are very on-trend ways to work this look. Chevron tile can be used in flooring, on a backsplash, in rugs, or even on your walls!
