During the strange and uncertain times that descended upon us in 2020 and the subsequent shift to working from home, a client contacted me about the possibility of converting her garden shed into an additional home office.
The biggest visual change was in the original office where we painted over the honey wood tones on the original panelled walls with a crisp white palette. To freshen and update this craftsman home we chose a modern farmhouse style with some added industrial elements.
This home had many great features including large living spaces, good flow throughout and spectacular views from almost every room.

We introduced a contemporary, industrial theme by adding the black metal railings, several concrete and stone tile finishes as well as new, modern light fixtures.
