Written by BGD on April 30th, 2015 Spring is here and it is time to get our gardens ready! When starting a project or beginning a renovation, the landscape design is done concurrently with the design of the home. Below are examples of landscape design in several of our projects!

How the functionality of the design serves the family is the most important aspect when designing a kitchen for a home. The style of the cabinetry is where we start as this is the main focal point of most kitchens. Below are images of cabinetry styles and hardware chosen and designed by bgd.

Though it seems far off, Spring is almost here and it is time to start planning for summer barbecues and outdoor relaxing! Here is an example of one of our completed outdoor projects. Our client wanted several areas within their outdoor space that served different purposes. As seen in the plan, we created an area for dining, an area for comfort and entertaining and an area for a more playful environment for the kids! What makes the division of areas successful here is that each space does not feel overcrowded. The distances between them allow for interaction but also a separation providing a different atmosphere whether it be for entertaining or for family time.

Art is  one of the most important focal points in any commercial and residential space. When starting a project, the first area of interest that we address is what art is being used where in the space and if art is needed to be picked out and bought for the space. Once we determine these details then we choose how to design around the art. The reason being is that art similar to past times reflects interests, cultural pursuits and personalities. A space that feels complete and is designed well integrates art, furniture and personal items throughout. On the topic of arranging or executing a gallery, we think of it like a collage by mixing colors, forms, sizes and patterns as well as mixing personal items displaying current interests as well as items collected in the past. Here are a few spaces that do just this!
