Heirloom & Ivy

Heriloom & Ivy’s transformation was designed around the idea of slowing down and creating a daily ritual of comfort. Centered on a freestanding soaking tub framed by natural light, the space balances timeless architecture with carefully layered textures and warm, inviting finishes.

Classic patterned floor tile grounds the room with character, while crisp white wall tile and polished nickel fixtures bring a sense of freshness and refinement. The adjoining shower incorporates built-in niches for practical storage, seamlessly integrated into the design to maintain a clean and uncluttered aesthetic. Soft furnishings, natural greenery, and thoughtfully curated accessories introduce warmth and livability, creating a space that feels collected rather than decorated.

The result is a bath retreat that blends traditional charm with modern functionality—a serene sanctuary designed for quiet mornings, long evenings, and everyday moments of restoration.

This lovely “New Traditional” kitchen renovation transformed an outdated space into a modern, stylish family hub – and earned Normandy Designer Laura Barber a Master Design Award from @qualifiedremodeler ! The redesign traded an awkward, two-tiered island and an unused desk area for a more streamlined layout, including a chef-worthy 48-inch range and a home bar for entertaining. The color palette features soft blue cabinetry paired with a stained walnut island, all grounded by breathtaking natural quartzite countertops and a seamless, full-height slab backsplash. Details such as gold mesh cabinet door inserts and antiqued mirrors create a casually elegant vibe. The new kitchen is a timeless dream space, perfectly suited for cozy family mornings and sophisticated evening entertaining.⁠

FORMA has won GOLD for Residential Specialty in the #2026MasterDesignAwards, presented by @qualifiedremodeler, for the #SubterraneanWineRoom.

No above-grade volume was permitted on the historic property, so the new room is fully subterranean, sitting six feet below the adjacent entry level. To protect the existing house, the fully concrete structure required soil grouting and seismic underpinning to thirty feet.

A custom swing bookshelf door, built to support a full load of books, opens into the hidden, library-inspired space. A hallway with built-in spirits storage leads to the main room, with a game table, wet bar, and walk-in wine cellar. LED lighting creates a cinematic atmosphere.

The Master Design Awards recognize residential remodeling projects nationwide across 22 categories. Congratulations to the entire team, including our amazing partners, interior designer Lizette Marie, and architect Geddes Ulinskas. 👏👏👏

FORMA has won SILVER for our Potrero Bathroom Renovation with Heidi Kim in the #2026MasterDesignAwards, presented by @qualifiedremodeler.

This full gut renovation in San Francisco stripped away all existing finishes and reset the room's function, privacy, and aesthetic character. The plumbing layout was largely preserved to control costs, with one exception: the toilet moved from its exposed position at the room's entry into a new enclosed water closet, created by converting one end of the oversized two-headed shower.

Calacatta marble mosaic floor tile, limewash paint on the walls and ceiling, and rich walnut millwork bring a sense of craft and history to a contemporary home. Sheer alpaca and linen drapery replaced wood slatted screens behind the freestanding tub, introducing softness and movement.

The Master Design Awards recognize residential remodeling projects nationwide across 22 categories. Congratulations!! 👏👏👏

🏆 A little recognition worth celebrating.

Meadowlark Design+Build received a Silver Award in Qualified Remodeler’s 2026 Master Design Awards for a kitchen remodel in the Kitchen Remodel Under $100K category.

Now in its 48th year, the Master Design Awards recognize remodeling projects from across the country. This year’s 65 winning projects were selected across 22 categories, with an emphasis on thoughtful design, creative problem-solving, and technical skill.

That last part feels especially meaningful to us. Great remodeling isn’t just about creating a beautiful space — it’s about finding smart solutions for the way people actually live.

For this Ann Arbor kitchen, the design focused on improving storage, creating better flow, adding useful seating, and incorporating thoughtful details for everyday life-including a custom rolling gate for the family dog that integrates seamlessly into the cabinetry.

We’re proud to see this project recognized alongside exceptional remodeling work from across the country, and grateful to our clients and the Meadowlark team who brought it to life.

Thank you, @qualifiedremodeler Qualified Remodeler, for the recognition! See the link in bio for the full article.

A great transformation deserves a moment in the spotlight.

Our 1950’s Residence Reimagined project in Pittsburgh received an Honorable Mention in the Exterior Facelift category from the 2026 Master Design Awards. Transitioning a traditional 1950s home into a contemporary residence with a Pacific Northwest-inspired exterior was an exciting design challenge, with updated living spaces and a generous outdoor pool and terrace helping create a more open, casual environment.

We’re delighted to see this work recognized and proud of the architectural design, interior renovation, and thoughtful transformation behind the project.

FORMA has won GOLD for Residential Interiors in the #2026MasterDesignAwards, presented by @qualifiedremodeler, for the #PreWarPenthouse.

The gut renovation of a penthouse apartment in San Francisco meant craning 350 tons of material through one 18-square-foot window. All millwork, cabinetry, and stone elements were pre-cut off-site to the maximum passable dimension and reassembled on-site to finished spec.

Attic expansion raised the ceilings from nine to ten feet without altering the 1926 building's roofline. The team upgraded all MEP systems and installed European oak chevron floors, custom millwork, and dedicated gallery wall space for the owner's collection.

The Master Design Awards recognize residential remodeling projects nationwide across 22 categories. Congratulations to the entire team, including our amazing partners, interior designer Sindhu Peruri, and architect Sean Bailey. 👏👏👏

We’re in a project-highlight kind of mood this month! This one is definitely worth celebrating. Our outdoor living project, complete with a gorgeous pool house built by our friends at @thelevinegroup brought home some BIG recognition!

We’re thrilled to have received a National Silver Award for Outdoor Living projects over $200,000 from @qualifiedremodeler. Beyond the award, this project is a great example of what’s possible when you think creatively about a small urban backyard. With thoughtful design, smart space planning, and a little GDC magic, this city lot became a true backyard oasis.

Have a backyard that could use a little more oasis and a lot more livability? Send us a DM, we’d love to help you dream it up!
