The backdrop of the home sits between large rocky boulders, so the team incorporated a palette that blends with the desert, carries a cohesive scene throughout, and allows our clients to feel calm in their space. 

As business owners, these clients needed a space that was predictable, less stimulating and extra comforting. This was achieved through a clear delineation of space in the open floor plan and the strategic use of select materials to unify the home. Additionally, attention was paid to sound absorption, light reflections and other sensory cues to create a calming effect. 

The project also had a ‘wow’ factor with the stone island and the primary shower, which dances with liveliness and opens out to an upper-side patio. 

Artfully layered materials gave a full-bodied result, while the overall still reads clean and minimalist. The result? A warm, organic desert dwelling.

What began as a simple kitchen redesign quickly evolved into a home remodel. With one partner favoring clean-lined contemporary pieces and the other drawn to traditional warmth, the goal became blending their styles into one cohesive space.

The kitchen was recentered around a custom plaster hood, which grounded the open floor plan. Soft dove white cabinetry contrasts with a dark-stained island. At the same time, Montblanc quartzite countertops and backsplashes, brushed brass fixtures, and minimalist pendants create a clean, layered look that balances both aesthetics.

Black and brass elements repeat throughout the living spaces for continuity. In the living room, a classic rug and tailored sofa meet structured upholstered chairs and a geometric coffee table. A dramatic chandelier now anchors the dining room like a sculptural centerpiece.

This project reflects the thoughtful fusion of two distinct design perspectives, resulting in a timeless yet modern home tailored to the clients’ lifestyle.

For the Venado project guest house transformation, the clients wanted their guests to feel as if they were retreating to a luxury boutique hotel. The goal was to create a calming, elevated space with a minimal, earthy vibe, channeling textures that complement the rammed earth architecture. Every detail was thoughtfully curated to blend beauty with function, ensuring an effortless and comfortable experience.

The team designed custom logos for each room and had them laser-cut onto the doors, adding a bespoke touch that reinforces the hotel-inspired aesthetic. The interiors feature a warm, neutral palette with layered textures, grounding the design while keeping it soft and inviting. Every material was meticulously selected to create a luxurious yet understated atmosphere, perfectly balancing hospitality and home.

This project was completed in just three months, thanks to the dedication of the incredible team and talented craftsmen.

This modern desert home was designed to blend indoor and outdoor living while remaining grounded in its natural environment. The goal was to create a warm, livable space that felt open, natural, and connected to the landscape. Clean lines, a mix of stone and stucco, and large glass walls help blur the boundaries between inside and out.

One of the most important design elements was the roofline and overhangs. They were thoughtfully planned to provide consistent shade, ensuring the outdoor areas remain comfortable and usable year-round. The layout wraps around a central courtyard that preserves a mature tree, now a key focal point visible from multiple rooms.

The outdoor areas have a seamless flow to the pool, fire features and lounge spaces that encourage gathering. Inside, the palette is soft and natural, using textures and tones that echo the desert surroundings.

The architect’s “finale” project before he retired was his personal home. The firm was asked to join the team to help facilitate and edit the ideas, ensuring the home remains consistent while reflecting the homeowners’ personality and supporting the way they live. 

 

The architecture was innovative and unique. The team helped support and enhance these elements with specific materials that were unique to their home. This also included making the home a space constructed for the client’s hearing disorder and fabricating every inch of the house’s ceilings with acoustic panels to help with sound absorption.

The home features unique stone slabs and wood species as well as customized furnishings that incorporate luxe textures and pops of color throughout. The spaces in this home were highly dynamic and offered one-of-a-kind geometry in each room. The elements were balanced with feminine touches to create a unique juxtaposition of styles overall.

When the clients moved into their new home, they were underwhelmed with the living room area, the wet bar and the adjacent outdoor space. The aim was to revitalize the space with a modernized look while creating a cohesive and inviting indoor/outdoor environment that would be cozy and comfortable.

With clients gravitating toward an achromatic color scheme, texture played a crucial role in the design. Texture was thoughtfully incorporated through a variety of textiles and hard surfaces. Keeping with the principle of high-low contrast in color selection, small touches of gold were strategically incorporated throughout the design. 

Through careful space planning and attention to detail, this living room exemplifies a harmonious blend of style and functionality, ensuring that the space is a comfortable gathering spot and a stunning focal point. The strategic integration of textures, contrasts, and metallic accents creates a sophisticated environment that reflects the clients’ desires.

The heart of the Serenity project is a living room that captures the essence of modern desert living—expansive, intentional and rooted in nature. Designed for a family who values connection and clean design, this space blurs the boundary between indoors and out.

A sculptural basalt fireplace wall makes a bold architectural statement while doubling as a spatial divider, creating distinct zones within the open-concept layout. The material palette is soft but substantial. Layered organic materials and clean-lined forms create a space that feels elevated yet livable.

The furnishings were carefully selected for their comfort and sculptural quality. A tonal, checker-patterned rug anchors the space, adding a quiet visual rhythm. 

This living room embodies the firm’s design philosophy—every detail serves a purpose, every texture invites touch, and every element is meant to foster presence.

The client previously had homes that were very old-world in aesthetic and included a lot of glamor and over-the-top elements. While she was ready to transition into a more modern home, she desperately wanted to keep many of the elements she loved. The team created a space that incorporated aspects of her old world aesthetic, done in a cleaner and modern fashion. 

Wood floors and tongue-and-groove ceilings fill the space with warmth, and paired with these elements is a limestone fireplace, which makes the room feel classic overall. Additionally, washed linens, velvets, furs, marbles and bronze materials were utilized in the furnishings, which were accessorized with European antiques. The ensemble was topped off with two six-foot custom crystal chandeliers to achieve an old-world element in a modern interior.

This great room was designed to evoke a sense of quiet luxury through scale, natural materials and seamless indoor-outdoor living. At the heart of the space is a soaring vaulted ceiling clad in white oak, with exposed beams and subtle architectural steel details.

A floor-to-ceiling fireplace wrapped in Calacatta Macchia Vecchia marble introduces organic movement and texture. At the same time, vertical oak paneling above draws the eye upward and brings warmth to the expansive space.

One of the most dramatic architectural features is the fully retractable sliding pocket door system, which opens the entire room to the outdoors. This strong connection to the outdoors is at the core of the home’s design intent—creating a livable retreat that celebrates the Arizona lifestyle.

Wide-plank oak floors, clean-lined built-ins, and restrained detailing allow the finishes to shine while supporting the home’s overall soft contemporary aesthetic.

The Curated Escape is a sweeping great room designed to evoke emotional impact and architectural harmony. As the heart of a hillside home, it dissolves the line between structure and scenery, supporting the rhythm of daily life. Soaring wood-clad ceilings extend seamlessly to the outdoors, while sculptural soffits add movement and a living, breathing quality that shifts with the light. A custom bar with built-in refrigeration, mitered countertops, and bespoke lighting offers sophisticated gathering without pretense. A dedicated piano alcove with integrated soundboard detailing enhances acoustics. Opposite, a monolithic stone fireplace anchors the room, recessed into the wall for seamless integration of structure and sculpture. Furnishings frame the view, layered lighting and textures balancing intimacy and grandeur.

This kitchen was part of a comprehensive home renovation in the luxury golf community of Estancia in Scottsdale, Arizona. The design directive was to breathe fresh, modern style into a previously rustic Southwest kitchen.

The exterior of this home features rustic stone partially sheathed in stucco, intended to evoke an aged Tuscan look. To respect that architectural aesthetic, the remodeled kitchen incorporates wire-brushed rift-cut oak cabinets, mesh-covered antique glass cabinet fronts, a hot-rolled steel hood and light fixtures that bridge the style gap between traditional and modern. 

The window was removed where the sink had been and replaced with the range and hood, allowing for a functional and pleasing layout of cabinets that enabled the homeowner to face and entertain guests gathered around the island.

New wood lentils were added at door openings, a farm sink with bridge faucet was added, and island-countertop edges were detailed to add rustic charm.

This Scottsdale kitchen renovation transformed a typical tract home into a warm, elevated space reflecting the home’s architectural roots and the client’s clean, minimal aesthetic. With little detailing to preserve, the design reimagined the layout, adding character through thoughtful finishes.

Drawing subtle cues from the home’s Spanish Mission–inspired architecture, light, airy walls set the tone, while a segmented arch over the built-in coffee bar reflects original motifs. A statement plaster hood with a pseudo four-centered arch became the central feature, grounding the space with graceful curvature while maintaining minimalism. 

A new layout improved flow and created two focal points: the hood and a new architectural window above the relocated sink, enhancing light and functionality. A strategic mix of high and low finishes allowed for splurging on Taj Mahal quartzite countertops. This project shows how intentional choices can elevate a standard kitchen into a refined, livable space.

This kitchen anchors the home both functionally and visually, featuring a contemporary Italian design that balances clean geometry with rich material contrasts. With high ceilings, the space feels expansive and airy.

Materiality is central to the design. Matte-lacquered Italian cabinetry in a neutral tone runs full height, concealing storage for a seamless wall plane. 

Stone is used across the backsplash, hood surround and island cladding, lending a monolithic quality that’s offset by soft veining and warm undertones. Brass inlays and accents subtly frame the volumes, bringing a refined edge. 

The island’s layout was designed with multiple functions in mind, without disrupting the surface or introducing clutter. A secondary walnut dining table extends from the island, adding organic warmth to the composition.

Every element was considered to support daily use and larger gatherings. The result is a kitchen that feels tailored and modern, anchored by craftsmanship and a strong architectural presence.

The rustic wood finishes were contrasted with polished Calacatta gold countertops and brass plumbing. The large working island incorporates a unique waterfall end detail, with the slab only three-quarters of the way down. 

The vent hood was concealed to maintain the soft, contemporary interior aesthetic.

Just beyond the central working kitchen is a large nook and back kitchen, adding additional storage and conveniences.

Conceived within a 28-year-old residence, this kitchen underwent a radical transformation, peeling back structure to reimagine how modern luxury unfolds. Outdated walls hid massive posts; entire rooflines were lifted to remove columns and unlock flow, creating a bold, open concept with sightlines stretching from curated interiors to the outdoor bar.

At its core, leathered Dedalus Antolini marble slabs cascade across countertops, anchoring the space in movement and texture. The island, wrapped in smoked Japanese-fired wood, contrasts with vertical grain white oak perimeter cabinetry.

This is a kitchen designed to perform, seamlessly integrating a Wolf stove, Ventahood ventilation, Miele coffee system, and Monogram refrigeration. The adjoining bar extends the kitchen’s sleek rhythm, while a hidden butler’s pantry maintains the illusion of effortless minimalism.

A 441-bottle wine cellar turns function into seduction. Framed like art, it becomes integral to the design. This kitchen is made to host, linger, and stun.

The client sought a sleek, contemporary redesign of the kitchen and kitchen bar area, defined by clean lines, refined materials, and high functionality. The vision was to create a striking yet practical entertainment space with integrated accent display areas.

The outdated layout lacked separation between work zones and entertaining areas, compromising flow and function. The design was optimized by reducing the number of cabinets while enhancing storage capacity. This created a more open and streamlined environment with clean, uninterrupted lines, complemented by frameless glass cabinets that achieved the client’s elegant display goal.

The kitchen bar’s back showcased a backlit semi-precious stone panel, floating custom metal-and-glass shelves, and integrated LED lighting to enhance depth and ambiance.

The client was thrilled with the final result, which surpassed her expectations in both functionality and visual impact.

Moody Modern is set on a hillside near Mummy Mountain in Paradise Valley, AZ. With its exposed concrete block walls, black aluminum composite fascia, and porcelain tile flooring, it has an intense, powerful energy. The four-bedroom residence reflects the owners’ affinity for dramatic modernism.

Designed for the hot desert climate, the home is bookended by the primary and secondary suites, allowing the pool and patio to be protected from the sun on both the east and west sides. 

Because of the kitchen’s exceptional views, the architect didn’t want upper cabinets on its north side, which allowed for an entire wall of windows to be installed that look out to the desert landscape. The dining area, across from the kitchen, has a direct line of sight to Camelback Mountain.

Wellness and high-vibrational living were the primary focuses of this home renovation, which meant selecting materials and design elements that cultivated the homeowner’s well-being and deepened the project’s connection to the natural world.

Designed as an expression of the client’s personality—glamorous, bold, and timeless—this one-of-a-kind indoor-outdoor bar is a sculptural centerpiece. While surrounded by full-height glass that frames the vast desert and mountain landscape, the design team intentionally turned inward, curating an immersive and atmospheric experience. The palette—rich blacks, warm whites, and opulent golds reflect the client’s classic style and love of sparkle.

Seven slabs of granite were sculpted into a geometric form, engineered to support their own weight while housing delicate, edge-lit panels. The lighting required close collaboration between steel fabricators and lighting consultants.

Every component—from the steel framework to the final granite installation—was executed with surgical precision.

The result is a bespoke environment rich in materiality and artistry. Black porcelain floors in a chevron pattern ground the space. At the same time, hand-painted ceilings, artisan tilework, custom millwork and a celestial chandelier of hand-blown glass stars echo the bar’s dynamic geometry.

The client envisioned a serene spa retreat that seamlessly merged a resort-style spa with a modern casita—a sanctuary designed to indulge the most discerning guests. The request included a steam room with showers, dual water closets, a revitalizing sauna and a private bathroom featuring a spacious shower and double vanity.

Faced with limited space and an ambitious program, the design features an innovative and efficient floor plan that accommodates all elements while preserving a sense of luxury and openness.

A glossy, turquoise epoxy leads to a semi-circular steam room inspired by ancient Greek caves, clad in shimmering mosaic tiles. Ergonomically shaped turquoise benches and a built-in steam unit create a true sensory haven. 

An adjacent mirrored hallway extends visual depth, enhanced by glowing screen doors that evoke a glistening cavern.

This spa is a living art piece, where functionality and sensory immersion harmonize seamlessly.

Every element of the restaurant has been meticulously crafted in-house, from the structural design to the small design details. Following the success of the Santa Monica location, this Arizona outpost adapts Mediterranean coastal design with organic textures and warm desert tones.

The space blends indoor and outdoor elements through retractable walls, creating an airy atmosphere inspired by the owners’ travels to Mediterranean destinations. 

The restaurant sourced artwork from international artists to complement the space’s aesthetic. Custom pieces include raw cotton art pieces, custom natural plant-dyed artwork, and large-scale African baskets. 

The central bar serves as the heart of the restaurant. It creates a connection between all the distinct dining spaces and the open kitchen. High shelving was chosen to provide a visual connection across the bar. 

The layout accommodates both the culinary and beverage teams, with custom storage solutions for the extensive wine collection.

Housed in a meticulously restored mid-century building, the venue is a multifunctional concept combining a restaurant, indoor-outdoor bar, market and private event spaces.

The interior draws heavily from Art Deco influences, inspired by The Great Gatsby, featuring walnut paneling, geometric tilework, fluted wood detailing and brass fixtures. A restored original ceiling crowns the space, adding a layer of historic texture that honors the building’s roots. The material palette is rich yet approachable, striking a balance between vintage elegance and a sense of modern ease.

A marble-topped community table anchors the main dining room, while plush banquettes along the perimeter offer intimate gathering zones. Custom lighting fixtures create a soft glow during evening service, large roll-up garage doors seamlessly connect the indoor space with the covered patio, which features a fireplace, lounge seating and integrated planters.

Innovative Wine Cellar Designs 

Located in Caesars Republic Scottsdale, a custom wine cellar was designed as a bold architectural statement. The cellar serves both functional and experiential purposes, offering nearly 1,000 bottles of storage while establishing a dramatic sense of arrival for guests entering the space.

The design is clean and modern, achieved through the use of transparent acrylic racking. Four illuminated display rows draw the eye across the collection, while a large Starphire glass shelf creates a dedicated pouring station that balances form and function.

LED lighting plays a key role in the overall impact. Perimeter lighting around the glass enclosure subtly highlights the structure, while integrated lighting behind the racking adds depth and emphasizes the linear design. These lighting elements elevate the cellar from a storage solution to a focal point.

The result is a sleek, contemporary installation that seamlessly blends architecture, lighting, and wine preservation into one cohesive and memorable feature.

This full-home renovation was nothing short of a transformation. The house initially featured dated finishes, outdated fireplaces, builder-grade lighting and an overall lack of personality.

The goal was to reflect a sexy, sophisticated vibe. The primary suite is wrapped in warm, charcoal tones, featuring a Roman clay ceiling and a tucked-away reading nook. The primary bathroom showcases luxe Calacatta Viola marble, rich walnut cabinetry and a steel-framed shower enclosure.

In the living room, a striking selenite log-inspired feature and marble bench span wall to wall. The original art pieces set the tone for the classic vibe of the space. 

The teen lounge was transformed into a stylish guest bedroom en-suite and a stunning in-home gym. The powder bath features Mother-of-Pearl wallpaper, a marble pedestal sink and a sparkling crystal pendant. 

This renovation didn’t just update a home—it completely redefined it. The project is now sophisticated, layered, and ICONIC.

Located in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale, our #TulumRetreatProject transforms a modern, sterile condo into an earthy, organic haven inspired by the relaxed luxury of Tulum. Our goal was to bring warmth, texture, and cohesion to the space while working with some of our client’s existing furniture and finishes.

The design is rooted in natural materials and a muted color palette that balances sophistication with laid-back desert vibes. Custom details—like bronze-finished cabinetry hardware and thoughtfully curated decor—help create a seamless flow throughout the home. The result is a cozy yet elevated retreat that blends the essence of Tulum with the Arizona desert.

ICONIC Award
Janet Brooks Design

The design approach was rooted in deep respect for the home’s original architectural integrity and the cherished memories it holds. Built in the 1990s by the clients’ parents, this custom residence embodies a timeless quality deserving thoughtful preservation. The parents, still living in and loving this home, initially didn’t understand why their children wanted to remodel a space so full of history.

The vision was to create subtle, natural interiors allowing the home and its breathtaking surroundings to take center stage. Working closely with an architect, the team opened interior spaces to embrace natural light and panoramic views. The greatest impact was in the kitchen and family room, where enlarged spaces introduced a vaulted ceiling oriented toward mountain views. The primary bedroom was opened to create a spacious, light-filled retreat.

Reclaimed beams and carved fireplace surrounds were preserved, ensuring the renovation balanced preservation with renewal, honoring the home’s history while embracing timeless, desert-inspired design.

Intimate and inviting, this contemporary home captures timeless style through every detail.

In the kitchen, flat-panel walnut cabinetry adds warmth to the space. The countertops are made from white Lunation quartzite, bringing a bright and luxurious feel to the space. A white limestone was selected as a complementary backsplash. Floating walnut shelves and warm bronze plumbing fixtures further the room’s luxury appeal.

In the dining and great room, a three-sided fireplace offers a gentle separation between the open-concept spaces. A double-sided sitting space was also constructed in the great room, using beautiful back-to-back sofas and Mid-Century Modern chairs. 

Being able to enjoy the Arizona sunshine was a priority for these clients, and a patio space designed with a fireplace, comfortable seating and a kitchen and dining area captures their love of the outdoors. 

The result is a home that feels classic and modern, capturing the eye at every turn.

Set amidst Sedona’s picturesque landscape, every detail of this modern mountain home sets the gold standard for wellness.
