After
Jeff and Alex Schaffer moved into their canyon-area home several years ago. Since then they've tailored nearly every room to suit their needs and maximize their scenic view. All that's left is the room above their garage, which the couple hopes to turn into a combination gym and guest apartment.

The Schaffers decided to use the expertise of Adele Taylor, who has designed an eclectic space that serves the couple's needs, as well as those of their guests. Taylor uses a shoji screen to separate the guest area from the gym. The soothing colors, new window treatments, and more modern furniture transform this space into the perfect Zen retreat.
