Our relocation services are a favorite of mine because I love having the opportunity to unpack and organize a home efficiently from the start. When a client is moving into a new home or a major remodel is involved, we are often brought in during the planning and building phases to help with the storage design and plan. This Portola Valley project is one of those cases. I began working with this client six years ago at their ... Keep Reading >>
Portola Valley Perfect Pantry
I love it when something new gives a nod to something old and this Portola Valley custom pantry does not disappoint. Our clients completely remodeled a beautiful country estate with antique elements that had me questioning, "is that original" every step of the way. This pantry cabinet is within a large open pantry with a wet bar, window seats, and storage for paper products and pet supplies. Just off the mudroom and on the way ... Keep Reading >>

Lucky for me we were organizing this project (a complete home relocation) at the same time that I was choosing the finish ... Keep Reading >>
Dream Home Kitchen & Pantry Organization
My team and I were able to unpack and organize this expansive custom kitchen in record time for two reasons... #1 because we paired down and purged so much at their old house and #2 because of the thoughtful attention to detail from the designer and our clients when creating the space. When we setup organized kitchen systems we use a common sense approach that is mixed with the needs and goals of the users. In this space ... Keep Reading >>
