THE RIGHT STAGE Building & Remodeling
Mid-Century Meets Modern
Annemarie Diaz, Development and Engagement • April 7, 2021
What was your experience as a client with THE RIGHT STAGE?
“THE RIGHT STAGE was an absolute pleasure to work with. I worked with THE RIGHT STAGE to remodel (almost) my entire house with a focus on main living areas and kitchen. Their spirit of collaboration and transparency led to the best possible outcome - a house that is loved by the owner as well as guests! I would use them for any future remodeling efforts.
- Philip R, Review posted on Houzz
When we met Philip, we knew we would work well together. He had a clear and beautiful vision for his Austin home overlooking the hills off of Capital of Texas highway. And best of all, his enthusiasm for his project was infectious! Two key features with this project were the removal of a fireplace, mantle and chimney encased with windows overlooking the pool, and a complete renovation of the kitchen to modernize and dramatically improve functionality with a new layout and cabinetry with all the gadgets.
Whereas many of our clients look to THE RIGHT STAGE to provide design, layouts, and material selections through completion of construction, Philip had already made many selections on his own and was looking for a company that could be flexible and work with him as a team to create his vision.
We were thrilled when he decided to work with us. We began with the living area!
Let’s Open the Living Area
A key challenge with this project - removing a fireplace, mantle and chimney encased in glass overlooking the pool. THE RIGHT STAGE safely demolished the fireplace, mantle and chimney, prepared the wall for the installation of new windows, and patched and secured the roof where the chimney had once been.
An Entertainer’s Kitchen
For the kitchen, we worked with our cabinetry team to help Philip select the perfect cabinetry and colors to create the modern kitchen he was looking for.
White carrara quartz countertops with European lacquer white and dark grey cabinets provide both the functionality needed in this high-use kitchen and a beautiful modern integration with the mid-century theme for living, dining and breakfast areas. The white and grey glass mosaic backsplash was the perfect selection to keep the clean look.
Moving the oven from the island to the wall allows for use of the island as a prep area and the range cooktop to be vented to the outdoors via a wall hood.
It was great working with Philip!
For us at THE RIGHT STAGE, providing value and quality come after listening to our client and ensuring a clear understanding of their goals and concerns. We were very grateful for the open channel of communication we had with Phillip, his trust in our company, and the results reflected it!
Thank you, Philip, for choosing and trusting us, we had a great time with you!
