Victorian Cottage Facade Restoration


I restored the facade of this quaint little Victorian cottage which was featured on HGTV's hit show "Curb Appeal", and this home was also featured in a home improvement book published with the same name.  Located in the Bernal Heights neighborhood of San Francisco, it had been stripped of much of its original detailing, and the windows had been altered on the front.  I used the proportions and period details typical to this type of Victorian residence to bring it back to its glory. I selected a paint color scheme made up of soothing blues, greens and a little gold leaf to show off the new facade.

Mid Century Addition

This Marin County home was designed by Joseph Eichler in the 1950's. The owners wanted a new privacy fence, entrance gate, new paint, front steps, and landscaping in order to blend with the original Mid Century Modern look of the home.  I used my attention to detail to create new additions to the home which would not take away from the original aesthetics that Joseph Eichler had intended. My design process of this residence was featured on an episode of HGTV's "Curb Appeal".

French Provincial Influence

I remodeled the front of this Novato, California ranch home and its front landscaping to give it a French Provincial feel for the HGTV show "Curb Appeal". Some architectural details were updated such as new stucco and window trim, and I designed a bistro style stone courtyard for outdoor entertaining. We added a wall fountain and iron dining table to create an inviting environment for eating or just enjoying the outdoors. A wrought iron entrance gate, driveway lanterns, and detailed new front door added the perfect touches to tie together my concept.
