The owners loved their 1930s Berkeley home but lived around its flaws — a closed-off kitchen, a choppy main level, and never quite enough room for a growing family. They wanted something warm and timeless that finally fit the way they actually live.
So we took it down to the studs: dug out and added a full basement, restructured the layout, and rebuilt the kitchen, living and dining, every bathroom, and the laundry around natural oak, hand-troweled plaster, and deep heritage greens — then styled every last detail.
Dark, busy cabinets and a closed-in layout gave way to natural white-oak millwork, deep heritage-green accents, and brass dome pendants over a generous island — the room the whole family gathers in.

The heart of the home. A boxed-up, mismatched great room opened into one light-filled space for living and gathering — warm oak floors, a layered gallery wall, and a tiled dining niche beneath a brass chandelier.

The whimsical wallpaper stayed — everything around it grew up. A fluted vanity, marble chevron floors, and warm brass against deep, moody green.

Small room, big moment. We carved a jewel-box powder room out of a raw basement corner — teal raised-panel millwork, an oval mirror, and a cheeky fox portrait.
