One notable project involved a transformation in Newport Beach. Originally a 1958 cottage, the residence was reimagined for a family of four. Extensive renovations included raising the roofline, adding square footage and a pool, and reconfiguring interior walls for modern living.
Each room was meticulously tailored to the client’s preferences, featuring custom cabinetry, opulent marble, statement lighting, and plumbing selections that made a bold statement. The project exemplified collaborative excellence with a dedicated team ensuring meticulous execution.
Zehner’s commitment to infusing homes with both function and beauty is the hallmark of her design ethos, and her career journey reflects her unwavering dedication to this pursuit.
