An Irvington kitchen remodel collaboration between Bright Designlab and Hammer & Hand balances industrial and modern. Cabinetry looks sleek enough to be European, but was built for the project in Portland.

The galley kitchen plan can be just as efficient as the typical kitchen "triangle" layout.

Counters are thick, polished concrete, a smooth contrast to the shiny gloss of the white cabinets.

Details include the simple wood shelves contrasting with clean, white subway tile.

A minimalist maximalist remodel of a master bathroom suite in Vancouver: "We clad the bathroom in white horizontally stacked tile, Athens Silver Cream heated marble floors from Ann Sacks, and a mosaic shower."

The mosaic-tiled double shower gets an elegant, frameless and nearly invisible glass enclosure.

Bright Designlab and Hammer & Hand custom designed the white concrete trough sink. Faucets are wall-mounted, and lighting is recessed.

8 of 14

The sink and faucet could not have cleaner lines.

Bright Designlab remodeled the kitchen of a Pearl District loft for a couple who've lived there for years and were finally ready to get the kitchen they really want. The custom-built walnut shelf "winds through the space - connecting the contrast of elements."

Bright Designlab used open grain walnut lower cabinets to contrast with glossy white/back painted glass upper cabinets.

Striated glass stacked tile backsplash is from Ann Sacks; open shelves are walnut.
