The Kim house that I designed is now completed here are some pictures. I designed and hand built most of the furniture and a few cabinets for the home.

A little "California" for my taste Mark, but exquisitely done and furnished. You have done yourself proud. I know you worked hard and long on both the house and the furniture. It must be really gratifying to have the chance to design the home and then make sure that the furniture fits it.

here they are

[Don Bullock]

That's quite an accomplishment Mark. You did a wonderful job on the whole project. Congratulations.

The wood gives a very contemporary home some nice warmth. Although not my style, it is beautiful to see. Thanks for sharing Mark

[Mark Singer]

since we are at it

[Matt Meiser]

Also not my style, but another incredible house. I can see some definite similarities in some of the materials in your house and this house.

And that dining room table and chairs looks familiar

This is your updated craftsman ....period style for 2007. It may be modern yes....but it also feels old in certain ways....kind of like I do for spending so much time on it. She is a great client . For a successful project you need a good team...Architect , Client and Contractor and here it came together. We respected each other and the care is evident in the finished product. The attitudes were always positive . The contractor and I have worked together for 20 years!

I love it - the pictures take my breathe away! I can see your hand print in every aspect of this home. It is modern, yet warm and inviting, like I am standing in the living room when viewing the pictures. Your use of wood in strategic place - ceiling, furniture and in combination with the stainless is striking. I am incredibly impressed. Great work - and kudos for building such a great team.

Congratulations.

This is your updated craftsman ....period style for 2007...

I guess that's why I really like it. This place has the warmth of the "Craftsman" style. It really fits well into that setting and the furniture "fits" the house - something that many of the "great" architects like Frank Lloyd Wright were known for.

"Modern" as such isn't my style at all, because it ususlly reminds me too much of the "modern" homes in housing tracts that were somewhat popular in the '50s and '60s that weren't pleasing to my eye.

Very nice Mark. It all works together well.

[John Schreiber]

Congratulations Mark. That is beautiful at every level. I especially admire the way that the details and the whole work together. As I look at the pictures, details keep coming out - especially the light entering from the outside during the day and leaking from the building during the night.

I confess that as much as I like it, I can't imagine living in it. I'd love to visit, but I think it would feel to too spare and "hard" for me to live in.

I'm sure your client is looking for something different from me and that she is pleased. Another magazine spread coming?

Looking again: Are the interior light sources natural light with a translucent cover, or are they fluorescent fixtures, or something I haven't seen before?

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Very nice Mark. Open, airy, modern and yet inviting........ a contrast in materials that go well together. Yes......very nice!

Another magazine spread coming? --- I would say is deserves one.

The night pics are great.
