THEGARDENSTUDIO

Walnut Creek, California(scroll to discover)

The Garden Studio is a whole house remodel design for a single story home in Walnut Creek, California, where New Key Construction paired cream stucco with cedar cladding and added a detached studio in the garden.

The kitchen combines oak cabinetry with a cream plaster hood and a simple island, and the living room looks through a wide picture window into Japanese maples. Bedrooms, a child's room, a laundry room and calm stone bathrooms complete the main house. Across the lawn, a cedar clad garden studio gives the family a quiet place to work and create, connected to the house by a terrace and outdoor dining area.
