San Jose Residence
A Minimalist Makeover That Feels Like Home
Clean lines and efficient planning bring ease, warmth, and flexibility to a small-scale space.
A creative transformation of a compact condo into a light-filled, functional, and welcoming home for a family of four. The goal was to maximize space and storage without sacrificing warmth or style. Walls were opened, soffits removed, and every detail was considered to create a home that supports everyday life and effortless entertaining. Clean lines, natural materials, and a neutral palette give the space a modern feel — while thoughtful layout choices ensure it feels lived-in and personal.
A modern kitchen that balances minimalism with warmth. We opened up the layout to maximize light and work surfaces while integrating hidden storage and custom details like a cookbook shelf and streamlined appliances that support daily family life and entertaining.
Stainless steel appliances are integrated seamlessly for a clean and modern look with a reflection of everyday life adding warmth.
In this compact condo, the dining area opens to the outdoors, allowing space to grow and connect. Designed for a family that loves to host, this setup transforms everyday moments into memorable gatherings.
A place to gather.
A small backyard transformed into a warm and welcoming space for hosting, with built in seating, layered plantings, and flexible outdoor dining. Native plants and low maintenance materials create an inviting California retreat for entertaining year round.
