inSite Design recently completed a large remodel in the San Francisco Laurel Heights area. This remodel included converting a storage space into a family room, performing a green deconstruction process and updating the existing rooms of the house. Read more about this remodel below.
Conversion of 1st level storage space into a family room:
inSite converted the first floor storage space into a comfortable family room. To make the space accessible, a stair connection was made to the second floor.

Green Deconstruction process to salvage fixtures, hardware and lumber:
inSite managed a “Deconstruction” process that salvaged all of the fixtures, hardware, old fashioned radiators and lumber for re-use rather than dumping into landfill. The deconstruction process does cost more than a typical demolition process, but when the items were appraised, our clients were able to claim a significant write-off for the donated salvaged materials that more than offset the increased demolition cost.
Transformation of Existing spaces:
Existing spaces can be drastically transformed using paint colors, interesting tile in high impact areas, molding details and wallpaper.
