If you are like me, the new year comes with resolutions. For many of us, one of those resolutions is related to transformation – eating more healthfully, getting organized or updating our homes. About this time each year, I start to wonder whether my resolution is actually achievable and I search for encouragement to keep me on the right track.

This full home renovation by Stefani Stein for a Silver Lake, California family gives me hope that large transformation is not only possible, but also worth the hard work entailed in achieving it. I promise that these beautiful images will give you the inspiration you need to carry on with your own resolutions.
