Counting inches Most people begin a renovation with a stack of inspiration photos. When photographer Aya Brackett and her husband added a second bedroom to their home, they started with just a bed. "We bought it for the style, but also for its storage capacity," she says of the piece with built-in drawers. "We designed everything else around it." The result--a 330-square-foot master suite--makes up the third floor of their 1895 Oakland home. Because of city setback rules, "everything was negotiated on inches," Brackett says. Custom furniture makes the most of the space; the cherrywood and white palette keeps it serene. "We like the minimal."

"It didn't feel like we had a lot of space for furniture," Brackett says, "so we wanted to streamline as much as possible." Brackett worked with a friend to design the built-ins, custom-fitting them to the available space--and adding features like drawers in the window seat for storage.
