Historic Eastside Remodel

Project Description

The Story

Testimonial

Project Description

This 3,700 square foot, Historic Eastside property required the design, preservation, demolition and rebuild of our clients home. Our clients purchased this property as a project home with the intent to transform it into wonderful, welcoming space for their family. With a modern, simple aesthetic in mind, our team transformed the master bedroom, living room, kitchen, dining area, entry way, and upstairs library into the home of their dreams.

This home won the Excellence in Remodeling Award from the Home Builders Showcase.

The Story

Our two individual clients (owners of the same property at different times), linked by two separate whole house remodels have two distinct, however, different backgrounds and histories. The first whole house remodel was completed by Fabuwallous, for a Native of Santa Fe, whose family was prominent in the world of tennis, before she entered the entertainment world as successful Rock & Roll celebrity with a second passion and flair for design filled with creativity. She has remained a client and friend for over 12 years and remains in the Santa Fe area. The client for the second whole house remodel has an equally interesting background. Reigning from a 5th Generation family in the oil industry, she has been involved with many philanthropic associations and activities, traveling worldwide. She is equally passionate and accomplished with design and outside of the box world class creativity. Santa Fe is a second home for approximately half of the year while spending the other half of the year in Houston. Today her life is full with travel, actively involvement with select organizations, and especially her family and friends. She is a true delight as a client and now friend.

This two-storey house radiates a minimalist charm with its white walls, ceilings and contrasting laminated wood flooring. The stainless steel handrail staircase draws the eye, leading to a second floor complete with a built-in bookshelf, merging style and functionality.
The second floor is enhanced by wall-hung solid brass seagull decorations and a vibrant, multicolored modern chandelier. A floral rug lies adjacent to the bookshelf, adding a touch of warmth and charm to the room.
The end of the wooden hallway reveals the house's standout feature: a modern platform lift, made of glass and metal, positioned beside the staircase. An oversized pendant light hanging from the ceiling enhances this unique attraction.
The kitchen exudes a contemporary feel, with its bamboo-slated bar counter, oversized stainless countertop, and built-in freezer. Adding to the functionality and modern design are a hanging condiments organizer and automated roller blinds for the kitchen windows.
