125 E Claremont is neither a restoration nor a renovation; it is instead a ground-up re-examining of the characteristics and influences of the Arts and Crafts movement. Led by Patrick Maziarski, owner and principal of Beau Geste Interior Design, this charming Craftsman uses an atmospheric color palette, rich materials, and a variety of unexpected textures. This elevated design approach evokes the feeling of a lived-in, historic home, with appropriate and cohesive details that are both current yet timeless, unique yet familiar. The kitchen presents an inviting balance of custom and vintage pieces, including custom sawn oak millwork throughout, a custom banquette upholstered in Kravet textiles, and locally sourced vintage pendant lighting. The cross-reeded glass along the upper kitchen cabinetry, inspired by Japanese Tonsu cabinets, and the Noguchi dining pendant are subtle nods to the Japanese influence on the Craftsman aesthetic. The integrated Liebherr fridge and stacked washer and dryer are artfully concealed, letting the richer details like the custom patina brass range hood and elegant brown marble counters shine. The bathroom stays true to the Craftsman spirit with tile from Mission Tile West, green marble, and rich oak, while playing with a highly saturated color palette and proportions that enlarge the space. The view from the kitchen's Dutch door gives a glimpse at the flat backyard with its red brick pathways, decomposed granite, lime, avocado, and mature olive trees, and a detached garage that's been converted into useable flex space perfect for office or studio. All major systems have been updated, as well as the roof and HVAC, and a full list of upgrades is available upon request. 125 E Claremont St sits in Pasadena's historic Garfield Heights, the city's second landmark district after Bungalow Heaven.
