DIY Personal Home Coffee Bar

DIY @ Home Coffee Bar  

September 29th marks National Coffee Day, but for most of us every day is a national coffee day. Are you among the majority of people whom start their day off with your morning dose of caffeine? Like many, I too start the day off with a coffee, whether it is hot or cold, it’s become my routine. My brain is wired to the coffee machine right when my eyes open, then check my email and then on to the rest of the day. Lacking counter space I wanted to create my own little piece of the coffee shop right in my own home.

Why not have my own coffee bar at home and save a few trips to the coffee shop? DIY Coffee bars are becoming a trend that you will want to be part off. Step up your plain coffee bar for a more elegant set up.

Ample storage for your coffee mugs and supplies is important when planning your home coffee bar.

Try your hand at DIY and Upcycle an old microwave cart with a new coat of paint and wicker baskets to give your coffee bar new life. Don’t be afraid to scavenge local thrift stores for used furniture, a little sandpaper and paint never killed anyone.

The storage unit above this coffee bar is a pallet project that has been remade into a shelf, with added hooks to hang your coffee cups. The idea here is to be simple, yet creative and your coffee bar will never fail. With the right décor you won’t even need to repaint your coffee cart. Take this red coffee bar for instance, it has seen better days – but the cute décor and coffee theme draw your eyes away from the peeling paint.

You don’t need a large kitchen or large space to have a great coffee bar in your home. Try repurposing an old end table for you coffee bar. Hang artwork or floating shelves above the end table to add extra flair and make known that this is your coffee bar.

This vintage end table would be nothing without the décor and table lamp. Perfect example of how simple can be elegant! Stick a theme to your coffee bar and don’t forget about décor.

Pros and Cons of Flooring Options

Pros and Cons of Flooring Options When remodeling your home you may feel overwhelmed with the many choices of Flooring Options. And there are many options! You may want to consider a few things before you lay down that floor solely because it looks good. We will help you make smart choices before your regret the floor you picked out.

Spazio LA will break down the options and factors that will help you make the right choice.

Things to consider when doing your flooring are:

1. Cleaning and Durability:

If you have pets and kids you may want to consider an option that is easy to clean. Choosing an option that will hold up to traffic and accidents is important.

2. Cost and Value:

It is important to consider the quality of the flooring and the value for your money. You don’t want to throw away money to replace a floor that you had remodeled only a few years back because you went with a cheaper option.  Also, installing quality flooring adds value to your home for years to come.

3. Location, Location, Location:

The ideal flooring can change based on where you are installing it as well. Rooms used more often will require durable flooring. Bathrooms will require flooring that is moisture and water resistant- and safe! Some flooring options and the way it is installed can make an area look larger, or smaller. You want durable flooring in a kids rooms but it needs to be safe and warm also.

Here we lay out the pros and cons of only a few different flooring options. Never the less if you are in doubt call a professional to help you with your home remodeling needs.

Pros & Cons

                       

Carpet

Pros -Carpet can act like another layer of insulation and help keep cold or warm drafts from seeping through the floor.

-It goes without saying that carpet is always going to be the softest of any type of flooring. -Carpet helps to reduce sound and noises from one floor to the next. Cons -Regular vacuuming is needed (every one to two days for high traffic areas) frequently. Spills need to be removed immediately to prevent staining and liquid to seep deep into fibers to cause mold and mildew.

Hardwood

Pros -An upgrade to hardwood floors will add a lot of value to your home. -Hardwood floors are easy to care for by sweeping or vacuuming them daily and wiping them with an approved wood cleaner. -There are many different types of woods, stains and plank sizes to choose from.

Cons

-Every step that is taken on wood floors can be heard. Not to mention, furry friends can slip and slide because their padded feet can’t grip the shiny, smooth surface.

Laminate

Pros -The protective layer on laminate helps protect it from something that would normally stain easily. -Vacuum away loose dirt and debris and mop with a damp mop.

Cons                                                                                                                                                                     -Laminate may look like hardwood, but doesn’t have the value like hardwood. -Laminate flooring is easily dented. Laminate flooring cannot be sanded or refinished. Areas with large scratches or gouges need to be replaced with new laminate flooring.

Tile – Ceramic/Stone/Porcelain

Pros -Easy, fast clean up – and great for high traffic.

-Adds a clean and elegant finish to a room.

- Nontoxic and great for those who suffer allergies as it doesn’t harbor allergens.

Cons -Not a good insulator for heat.

-Dangerous when wet!

-Tiles can crack and need to be replaced.

Radiant Heated flooring keeps more than your toes warm

Radiant Heated flooring keeps more than your toes warm Stepping on toasty warm floors every day is no longer a dream, radiant heated flooring is what you need. Heated flooring originally came from the ancient Romans whom had workers below their marble floors fanning fires to heat the floors and home above. We now have radiant heating systems installed below our floors to give us heated flooring rather than hiring staff to do the job of the Roman workers. Read on if you are ready to pull up your old floor or are in the stages of a new floor.

Radiant heated flooring comes in a few different types of systems but, Electric and Hydronic systems are more popular. These systems produce infrared radiation that rises from the floor to warm up the house or building mass, making sure heat isn’t lost on contact surfaces. This Radiant Heat keeps your whole body comfortable and warm, not just your toes. This alone will have heating efforts as you won’t have the need to crank up your forced heating system during those colder times.

Electronic vs. Hydronic: Electronic heating systems utilize electric cables or mats installed below your floor, though they can put a damper on your electric bill. One way to offset the cost of electric heated flooring is to balance the cost through solar energy. The benefits of electric systems are the ease in installation, cost to install and the luxury of on demand heating. Hydronic systems use the water from your water heater to push around water tubes that are installed below your floor. This method is best for large scale heated flooring needs where you will love year round heated floors. Hydronic systems heat the slab as a whole, and can be more energy saving than electric systems. Radiant heated flooring gave your comfort a whole new level. (Hydronic heated flooring installation)

Why don’t you just turn up your heater instead of having heated flooring installed? This question comes up a lot, and for valid reasons. The answer may surprise you. Regular forced air heating systems heat the air only to have the heated air rise to the ceiling and drop back down toward to the floor once it cools. (Hot air rises)This makes it very difficult to keep your feet warm, as well as could be the reason you feel cold even though your thermostat is at the temperature you want it at. Heating flooring will allow you to heat your whole room to a comfortable temperature, and not lose the heat that you are paying for.

(Electric heated flooring installation in bathroom)

Thinking of heated flooring but don’t know what flooring material to use? All flooring materials can be used with heated flooring, though some work more effectively than others. Materials like stone, concrete, and ceramic tile conduct, transfer, and hold heat better than other materials. Carpet, to my amazement can be used with heated flooring systems – but does not encourage the flow of heat, therefore it may be crossed off your list. Vinyl and laminate flooring have certain heat limits, and may not be able to be warmed up to the temperature you are looking to achieve. Lastly wood floors should only be installed by a professional that can account for the shrinking and expanding of the wood with a heated floor system in place. This should take some of the guess work out of heated flooring.

With a better understanding of radiant heated flooring systems we all can say goodbye to freezing floors!

Los Angeles Remodeling – Why you can remodel too!

Los Angeles Remodeling – Why you can remodel too! Stop looking at all the reasons why you don’t think you can remodel your home, and start dreaming of what your home will look like after we are done with it. I am sure you can list all the cons and reasons to validate your reason for thinking negatively. We can list all the reasons why you should think different about kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, and remodeling in general.

What your list looks like against remodeling:

1. You think that your house, kitchen, bathroom, or square footage is too small for a nice remodel.

This is the perfect reason to start a remodel! We can increase square footage with an addition; this can transform your home and give you the space you want. We have experience tuning 750sq ft into over 2,000sq ft. If you don’t want to do an addition, we can change the layout of your room to function better and feel larger.

2. The only thing that would make you happy is if your whole home layout where changed. You can’t see remodeling the kitchen because you hate that it is in the front of your house. You hate that you do not have an en suite master bathroom.

Nothing is permanent. We can move walls, remove walls, change the layout and plan of your house, add bathrooms, move your kitchen, make your home an open floor plan. You name it, we can do it. There is nothing more important to us than making our clients happy. We will take all your ideas and dreams and build them for you.

3. You don’t think that you can afford a remodel.

The fact is that remodels can be expensive; there is no hiding that truth. You can afford a remodel, and we will tell you why. There are options for financing an eco-friendly remodel with a program called HERO. This program is an easy way to get your home updated and save the environment. Not only is there this program that we offer, but we can tell you what other options you have. You don’t have to live in a house that you hate anymore.

Fall in love with Fall Decor

Decorate your home inside and outside with gourds, leaves, pumpkins, nuts and other seasonal materials for beautiful fall DIY displays. Squash, pumpkins and a twig of ginkgo leaves (inserted in a flower pick) on mounded moss command attention in this bell jar set atop a terra-cotta dish. Substitute a terrarium, large jar or even a glass cake cover, if desired. Arrange a few spillovers outside the glass for a touch of spontaneity.

Vibrant dahlias in carved-out mini pumpkins delight at place settings. We used a candle carver—a small tool that removes candle-size chunks from fruits and veggies. Insert a votive holder as the "vase" for water and blooms.

Clear glass containers show off both candlelight as well as colorful materials.

Nestle a candle in popcorn kernels or other seasonal materials, such as candy corn or colored clear round stones (available in crafts stores). If you prefer, use a battery-powered candle for safety.

White pumpkins encircled by bittersweet vine and set along an orange table runner create a striking table arrangement.

Use repurposed candle holders for easy fall displays of small pumpkins and gourds. Look for inexpensive candle holders in varying heights at a garage sale or antiques store, then spray-paint black for a unified look.

While the trees may be dropping leaves outdoors, you can preserve them inside on this tree -- perfect for an entry display or party centerpiece.

Anchor a branch (we used manzanita from a floral shop) in a decorative potwith floral foam or rocks, then cover the top with moss. Decoupage color copies of gathered leaves onto small cards or hot-glue pressed leaves to cards. Tie to branches with twine or raffia. Add lines of favorite seasonal poems to the back, if you like.

Create simple but striking arrangements with autumn beauties. Try cattails, ornamental grasses, cone flower seed heads or dried hydrangea blooms.

Create this beautiful fall wreath with a variety of materials that reflect autumn's hues: gold, red, orange and brown.

Both your yard and a crafts store should provide a bounty of choices. A mix of fresh and dried materials looks lovely, but a wreath of all dried materials lasts longer.

Lightly soak a 10- or 12-inch ring of Oasis floral foam in water. Group your materials by color to plan each section of the wreath, then insert materials by the stems. We used tree leaves and fresh mums for red and orange bands of color, tree leaves and dried yarrow for gold, and dried oak leaves and pine cones for brown. Hot glue or T-pins help hold materials in place.

Make a leafy monogram to hang on your door for a touch of fall flair. Paint a papier-mache letter and let dry, then hot-glue dried or silk leaves to the layer in letters. Hot-glue a wire loop to the back of the door for hanging.

Clues your water heater is junk

Clues your water heater is junk You wake up to take your morning shower and there is ice cold, Alaska water coming out of your showerhead. This could be a very good sign that your water heater is not functioning at all anymore and it’s time to get a new one.  If you wait too long it may lead to bigger problems as well, such as large leaks and water damage to your home. So aside from complete catastrophe know when to replace your water heater from the small signs.

1. Water Temperature – Water temp variance could be a good indication that the water heater is getting ready to call it quits. If your water heater doesn’t get as hot as it used to be or the temperature comes in waves, invest in a new one before you are left in the cold water!

2. Age – Electric water heaters usually only last for 8-10 years, while gas water heaters last 6-8 years. You may even be making a eco friendly upgrade when you swap your old water heater for a newer model.

3. Leaks – If your water heater is creating an ocean or lake in your garage or basement, fixing it is recommended before water damage arises. You can trouble shoot your water heater but depending on the age you may just need to replace it.

4. Rusty water – A gush of rusty colored water when you open the hot water faucet is a major indicator of an aging water heart. Generally this is caused by years of sediment that has been deposited in your tank. When you turn on the hot water the sediment is stirred up and comes out. Usually seeing this rust colored water is a sign that corrosion and leakage is on its way. Draining and flushing your water heater can help, but when this is not enough – replace.

5. Drain issues - Over time, sediment builds up inside a water heater. Flushing your water heater once a year will help solve this and extend the life of your water heater. However, if this task isn’t performed for an extended period of time then the sediment build-up will eventually reach a point where it can no longer be resolved. At this point a water heater replacement will be necessary.

When deciding to replace your water heater, you will want to decide if you would like one powered by electricity, natural gas or propane gas. Water heaters these days are amazingly efficient. Look for models that sport the government-appointed Energy Star label. The tag also is supposed to indicate the annual operating cost of the device. You also will need to determine the size of the water heater you need, in gallons. After choosing your water heater, you will want to either hire a qualified installer or learn how to do it yourself.

Common Backsplash issues that will make you glad you hired a contractor

Common Backsplash issues that will make you glad you hired a contractor

Your kitchen backsplash may be just one of the simplest parts or your home. However, you could have so many dilemmas when it comes to the installation and probably with remodeling in the future. When you look at a backsplash area, it seems so simple being a rectangular space on your kitchen wall. When you try to work on it and improve it the way you like, you come to find that it is not that easy to handle the job. Working on any vertical surface can be challenging. You may need to find a contractor for your Los Angeles Kitchen remodel to assist you and take some work off your hands.

Why hire a contractor to work on your backsplash project?

Here are some common problems about kitchen backsplash that would require help from a professional contractor, and make you thankful that you have some professional help.

1. Timing in placing the backsplash – everything should start with planning, most especially when it comes to the kitchen backsplash. What most people have dilemmas about is when to fix the backsplash. Do you install backsplash before the cabinets go in? Do you do the backsplash last? The say of a professional contractor is needed in this case. The experts will know when to take care of the backsplash, appropriately, to make sure that everything will turn out with the best quality. For example you won’t ruin a new countertop by dropping grout.

2. Right height for backsplash – this is a common problem for most homeowners. They end up doing the backsplash themselves but are not sure about the right height for it. Would it be alright to keep it low or high? Should the height be dependent with the width of the kitchen counter? A contractor will be able to measure the perfect height for it, and make sure that the wall is ready for any height and weight you choose.

3. Tiling process – it could be easy to place the tile on the wall, but which tile should be used for the backsplash purposes? You may need to contact a professional to help you in choosing the right type of tile to use. You can let them do the installation as well for better results. Although you can install the tiles yourself, a professional contractor can do it expertly in a timely manner. Get the best results for your money, after all this is an investment.

4.  Backsplash design – how should a backsplash look like? Is it a must for it to match the tiles with the designs on the kitchen floor? What material should you use? What angle should the backsplash be installed?  Your contractor can answer all these and more questions about back splashes and remodels.   

A good contractor can help you fix your kitchen backsplash in Los Angeles homes or even your business. If you have any more problems with installation and maintenance of backsplash for your kitchen you could always ask your contractor. Look for the right contractor to help you expertly with your project. Make sure all your kitchen backsplash dilemmas are resolved by hiring a professional contractor

Waterwise plants for a low maintenance yard of Los Angeles

Waterwise plants for a low maintenance yard of Los Angeles

A lawn might be lovely, but it takes a lot of hard work to make it so; you’ve got to mow, weed, thatch, reseed, aerate. Then repeat. If you’d rather spend more time enjoying the outdoors instead of working on it, switch to one of these low-maintenance yard ideas. As a bonus, you’ll also save on your water bill because these alternatives use less water.

Low maintenance does not necessarily mean that you will avoid plants all together; the use of water wise plants will require less water and grow well in your area. As well as water wise plants, use of rocks in your yard will allow run off water to collect and feed your plants.

Gardeners wishing to live in a sustainable way will want to plant water-wise plants in their gardens. Indeed, many cities may soon require it. Waterwise plants have developed qualities that help them tolerate low rainfall, high heat and drying winds. These characteristics are taproots, leaves with fine gray hairs or high oil content, and bulbous, water-storing roots.

Here are  a list of water wise plants and alternatives:

Perennials, Shrubs, and Ornamental Grasses  Agave species (Agave)  Alyogyne huegelii (Blue Hibiscus)  Arctostaphylos species (Manzanita)  Artemisia species (Sagebrush)  Ceanothus species (California Lilac)  Chamelaucium uncinatum (Geraldton Waxflower)  Cistus species (Rockrose)  Dudleya species (Live Forever)  Echeveria species (Hens-and-Chickens)  Encelia californica (California Encelia)  Galvezia speciosa (Island Bush Snapdragon)  Grevillea species (Grevillea)  Heteromeles arbutifolia (Toyon)  Lavandula species (Lavender)  Leucophyllum species (Texas Ranger)  Lobelia laxiflora (Mexican Bush Lobelia)  Mahonia nevinii (Nevin’s Barberry)  Melalueca nesophila (Pink Melaleuca)  Myrtus communis (Common Myrtle)  Nassella species (Needlegrass)  Penstemon species (Penstemon)  Rhus species (Sumac)  Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary)  Salvia, selected species (Sage)  Sisyrinchium bellum (Blue-Eyed Grass)  Tapetes lemmonii (Copper Canyon Daisy)  Verbena, selected species (Verbena)

Trees  Arbutus unedo (Strawberry Tree)  Chitalpa tashkentensis (Chitalpa)  Geijera parviflora (Australian Willow)  Laurus nobilis (Sweet Bay)  Olea europaea ‘Swan Hill’ (Swan Hill Olive)  Pinus eldarica (Afghan Pine)  Prosopsis chilensis (Chilean Mesquite)  Quercus agrifolia (Coast Live Oak)  Rhus lancea (African Sumac) Vines  Bougainvillea species (Bougainvillea)  Macfadyena unguis-cati (Cat’s Claw)  Vitis californica (California Wild Grape) Turf  Buchloe dactyloides (Buffalograss)  Cynodon dactylon (Hybrid Bermudagrass)  Zoysia ‘Victoria’ (Victoria Zoysiagrass) Ground Cover  Acacia redolens ‘Desert Carpet’  (Dwarf Prostrate Acacia)  Achillea species (Yarrow)  Baccharis species (Coyote Brush)  Cotoneaster dammeri (Bearberry Cotoneaster)  Lampranthus species (Ice Plant)  Lantana montevidensis (Trailing Lantana)  Myoporum parvifolium (Myoporum)  Sedum species (Stonecrop)

Backsplash meant to catch your eye

Backsplash meant to catch your eye Every square inch of your kitchen should be used to improve the flow and design of your newly remodeled kitchen. Homeowners are no longer ignoring the space between the kitchen counter and the cabinets, and back splashes are no longer only 4 inches tall. Now colorful and eye catching backsplashes are being installed. Backsplashes are reaching new heights and design; even new materials are taking the kitchen remodel by storm. No longer are stone, subway tiles, and stainless steel the only “trend” when it comes to backsplashes.  Tile will remain in the number one spot for 2016 with stone falling shortly behind at number 2. Although the materials used for tiles and backsplashes are ever growing.

If you do want to stick to the older trend, you can buy your subway tiles for cheaper than regular tiles, and natural stone will give your kitchen a durable edge. Though the latest rage in tile is now 3D tile and textured tile. Textured tile can add depth to your kitchen backsplash wall, and create a cool piece of art to look at. If you spend time in the kitchen you will more than likely look at your new backsplash, so make it something worth looking at.

But if you want to liven up your kitchen and install eye catching backsplash, you will need to match your backsplash to your personality. Try mixing it up with White marble and a flashy wallpaper or river rocks. Our Advice: If you want something amazing and fit for your personal style – go with a material that complements your life. Green gurus and ecofriendly homeowners are reaching for the reclaimed wood and antique wood tiles for their kitchen backsplashes. Ever have left over wood from your homes’ flooring? Now you can put it to use by using it as backsplash. But your wood backsplash doesn’t have to match the color of your floors – opt for staining your left over pieces to your taste. Even concrete can be an ecofriendly option for backsplash. Embossed concrete will be seen on kitchen walls – and can be embossed to look like individual tiles – though with less work.

Small kitchens are happy to get a backsplash made of tile mirrors! These mirrors come in any shape or size and can really reflect the light a small kitchen may be lacking. We first saw them in kitchens of the 80’s – but they are making a strong come back for 2016. The reflective power of a mirror can catch what small light you have in your kitchen and make it appear brighter and larger. Say good bye to dark and dingy – get yourself mirrored backsplash tiles.

As you can see there are so many more options rather than simple subway tile or natural stone for your kitchen backsplash and it doesn’t take much more than a creative idea to get a cool backsplash. Some installations take less work and time than others. If you have questions or need help with a remodel project don’t be afraid to reach out and contact us. 1.877.642.7772 Spazio LA

Where do you start fixing up a fixer upper?

Where do you start fixing up a fixer upper? Buying a brand new house or even newer house isn’t feasible for everyone. Buying a fixer upper could have been your dream, who knows. Though now that you are all moved in, where do you start when you can’t fix up the whole house at once? It seems like there is an issue every corner your turn and the issues keep adding up.

If you haven’t ever experienced a fixer upper or older house, the experience is like this; kitchen & bathroom sink backs up and wont drain, bathroom shower is slow to drain (so you are standing in dirty water),  the washer is flooding your laundry room or garage, your windows are all single paned and have no barrier to the outside elements, you have a leaky roof, your lights only turn on half the time you flick the on switch, let’s not even talk about the flooring (it’s that bad). The kitchen layout is horrible – don’t even think about having more than one person in the kitchen at any one time, mismatched cabinets, no garbage disposal or dishwasher,  ONE electrical outlet, and the appliances are not energy saving friendly. Now on to the bathroom- it may be shaped like a hallway – long and narrow, or it may be the size of a closet. It is outdated, no ventilation, and the word relaxing doesn’t pop into your head. Older houses have either very small closets or no closets, this just spells disaster. This is just the start to what a fixer upper has in store for you.

All you can see in your head is knocking down walls to make that grand open floor plan, a large chef’s kitchen, walk-in closets, spa style bathroom, new floors throughout, and to have your electrical and plumping situation in working order. All you can see is your fixer upper looking like a brand new house .The whole house remodel is nice, but sometimes you have to start small, and that’s perfectly fine. You have to figure out where to start before you start.

Make a list of all of the major issues, like the sinks not draining, leaks, plumping and electrical issues – make a list of all the major things that have to work before anything else. There is no point in remodeling the kitchen if the ceiling leaks so bad it’s like the kitchen is raining. Once you have the major issues listed you can now move on to the things that you need to change or fix, then a list of the things you want to add. Rome wasn’t built in a day, so your house doesn’t have to be remodeled in one either. Consulting a remodeling company after you have created your list is recommended.

A remodeling company isn’t you worst enemy. You may be thinking that they are more expensive than you can afford, but this may come to a surprise to you, you can afford them. Remodeling and interior design teams can help look at your house and your list of issues and break down where to spend your money first, where you can save money, and if they can help you finance the remodel projects.

Sherman Oaks Remodel goes from 700 sq feet to over 2000 !

Sherman Oaks Remodel goes from 700sq feet to over 2,000

This Sherman Oaks home is a great way to display the love and passion we have for what we do here at Spazio LA. We were able to build a home of our client’s dreams as well as bring our creative expertise to another level. After 7 months of hard work and over 1300sq feet added on to this beautiful home, we are proud to go ahead and share all details with you.

750sq feet before – 2150sq feet after: Smooth grey stucco, Brazilian Ipe siding, modern metal and glass gates and beautiful landscaping makes for this gorgeous house front. Can you say major curb appeal right off the back? I think we can be safe to say that this makes you want to come on in and see what’s on the inside.

Let’s get started with all the great details that made this remodel whole.

Master Bedroom and Kid’s Bedroom:

This beautiful master bedroom has lots of natural light thanks to the use of the world famous NANA wall (retractable glass door panels, we have a great blog about them and how to get your own) as well as the 14 foot vaulted ceilings. The NANA walls open up to the IPE deck and patio area.  Some will argue that the NANA walls make this room feel so huge, some will argue that the incredibly tall ceilings make this room feel huge – but we will tell you that the combination of the two make for one amazing sight to see. The art work on the walls are all original pieces, and the bed frame was designed and fabricated specifically for the client. We will always go above and beyond to make sure our client is entirely happy with their space.

The beautiful kid’s room has zebra hardwood floors, a custom aluminum and glass doored closet, and a custom blue ocean chalk wall mural. This room was designed for a younger child – but the design can most certainly grow with your child or become an office later on when they fly the nest.

Open floor plan:

 

Our design for the sunken living room was to and depth and dimension, maybe even bring in some drama. This open floor plan needed a little change in level, so we sunk the living room and opened it up with more 11ft NANA walls. This makes for the perfect indoor/outdoor experience, just open the glass walls to bring the life to the party.

An open concept design and polished concrete floors, Spazio LA was able to achieve a loft feel in this large home. Concrete flooring throughout the kitchen, island with seating – plus room for a dining table, are just a start to this great kitchen. This contemporary kitchen shows off master chef appliances and became an entertainer’s delight.

This bathroom design incorporates concrete onto the walls with a beautiful green color pallet and black slate tile on the floors.  The shower has large Italian porcelain tiles complemented by a Brazilian teak wood floor. For those of you whom don’t know much about Brazilian Teak Wood it is durable, and will not absorb water – which makes it good for showers or saunas as it will never rot.

We spent a lot of time on this project from the design to the build, but we are very proud to share this with you. Spazio LA hopes to inspire you to believe that your home can be just as beautiful as you dream it to be.
