Development
& Design

We create lasting value through thoughtful renovation and development — homes that honor their context, elevate the neighborhood, and stand the test of time. No shortcuts. No McMansions.

Development as a responsibility, not just an opportunity.

We believe that every renovation and development project carries an obligation — to the future owner, to the neighbors, and to the neighborhood fabric. We don't build to flip. We build to last.

Our approach starts with deep respect for the existing structure and its surroundings. We look for opportunities to add square footage intelligently, upgrade quality without erasing character, and make design decisions that appreciate in value over decades, not just years.

Tasteful means honest materials, proportional additions, and finishes that belong — not trend-chasing, not excess.

Current Projects

Cheviot Hills, Los Angeles CA
Current2025
Cheviot Hills
Los Angeles, CA

A full-scale renovation of a landmark family home that hadn't changed hands in over 50 years. We're restoring and elevating every inch — interior, exterior, and grounds — while preserving the original character and scale that made it special in the first place. No reinvention, just refinement done right.

Truckee, Lake Tahoe CA
Current2025
Truckee
Lake Tahoe, CA

A ground-up luxury build on a prime Truckee site with commanding views. Designed for multi-generational living, the home balances generous shared spaces with private retreats — built to the highest standard and conceived to be enjoyed by families for decades to come.

Almaden Valley, San Jose CA
Current2025
Almaden Valley
San Jose, CA

A thoughtful upgrade of a previously flipped home that lacked soul. We're adding the character the flip left out — redesigning the landscaping from the ground up and reconfiguring the layout to work beautifully for the couple who calls it home, with functionality and comfort at the center of every decision.
