Restorative Dentistry

Our practice provides dental care for crowns, fillings, plus more for rebuilding your smile with naturallooking results using modern technology.

Cosmetic Dentistry

From whitening to veneers and smile makeovers, we combine artistry and advanced technology to help you feel confident showing off your best smile.

Creating healthy and beautiful smiles since 2008.

How it works:

EMFACE uses synchronized radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity facial muscle stimulation (HIFES) to lift, tone, and smooth—naturally boosting collagen and elastin, while strengthening the underlying facial muscles. This means tighter skin, reduced wrinkles, and restored structure… without surgery, needles, or downtime.

∙ It treats both the skin and the underlying muscle, something filler can’t do.

∙ It strengthens the levator and orbicularis oculi muscles, lifting the brow and tightening skin for a brighter, more open look.

∙ It improves natural volume loss without risking puffiness, migration, or overcorrection like filler sometimes can.

∙ It’s a non-invasive alternative to blepharoplasty or laser resurfacing, making it ideal for clients not ready—or not a candidate—for surgery.

Data-backed results:

Up to 26% increase in collagen | Up to 30% reduction in crow’s feet 23% more lifted facial structure | 64% reduction in dark circles

Learn. Certify. Succeed.

Home Sweet Home

Home. Just four letters, yet it holds so much meaning. It’s our sanctuary, our foundation, and the place where life unfolds. Home is where we begin and end each day, where our lives take shape, and where our hearts find rest. While the specifics of what “home” looks like vary for each of us, its significance is universal.

Author Wendy Wunder captured it perfectly: “The magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave, and it feels even better to come back.” With that in mind, this month’s issue focuses on what makes home special— from the warmth of shared meals and thoughtfully designed spaces to the people who bring it all to life.

This month, we had the privilege of connecting with local businesses and individuals who shape this community. Their stories highlight the creativity, resilience, and heart that make this area feel like home. We hope that as you turn these pages, you’ll be inspired to strengthen your connections—whether within your neighborhood, your city, or your own walls.

Many of our readers tell us they hold onto this magazine long after the month on its cover, treasuring it as a piece of home—whether as coffee table art or a source of inspiration. That’s a tradition we’re proud to uphold, and we remain committed to delivering the value you expect each month.

Thank you for welcoming us into your homes. Here’s to making this March a celebration of the spaces and people that matter most.

Happy March!

URBAN KITCHENS

Specializing in residential kitchen, bath, whole-home renovations, and fully-custom cabinetry, 2026 marks Urban Kitchens’ 27th year in business. This Belmont Farms Chef’s Kitchen epitomizes a move toward staying in place as real estate prices rise. For ease of use and to accommodate the Owner’s storage needs, more drawers and organizing inserts were included in this remodel. Creative design showcasing family mementos, such as the Owner’s 50 year old still oil painting, and layers of lighting bring warmth to this traditionally utilitarian space. Stained hickory cabinets with hidden hinges and a paneled refrigerator anchor the large wall that opens to the family room while a creamy white island and quartz countertops reflect the light from the generous windows. The subtly-textured custom hood helps to break up the long wall of cabinets, while wood flooring provides a seamless transition between the kitchen and family room. With plenty of room for family gatherings, this kitchen will be a memory-making space for years to come! For design ideas and cabinet demonstrations visit Urban Kitchens’ Showroom at 4205 N Western Ave in Oklahoma City or call (405) 702.7747.

MONTE CRISTO IRONWORKS

At Monte Cristo Ironworks, material is never just a component of construction—it is a statement of permanence, proportion, and intention. Nowhere is that philosophy more evident than in the arched entry of this $2.5-million Spanish Revival estate in Adero Reserve, where custom doors and window systems establish the home’s first—and most lasting—impression.

The entry is defined by a sweeping, oversized arched window unit that houses an impressive pivot door, both crafted by Monte Cristo Ironworks. Framed by soft plaster arches and patterned tile, the composition introduces a quiet strength that feels refined, timeless, and architectural. Natural light pours through the opening, while the weight and precision of the craftsmanship ground the space. Rather than competing with the architecture, these elements elevate it, setting a tone of restraint, confidence, and enduring quality.

The residence at 13500 Adero Drive in Jones, Oklahoma (MLS® 1208602) provides an ideal setting for this level of work. Built by Silver Stone Homes and set on five wooded acres behind the gates of Adero Reserve, the nearly 6,900-square-foot estate blends Old World Spanish influence with modern luxury—an ideal canvas for architectural detailing that is both bold and disciplined.

Throughout the home, custom doors and expansive window systems frame views of the surrounding landscape, flooding the interiors with light while reinforcing the home’s arched geometry and Mediterranean roots. The result is a seamless dialogue between structure and scenery, where each element feels purposeful and integrated rather than decorative.

The Fresh Start

ARTICLE BY HEATHER SPINKS

There’s something about this fresh, ethereal feeling that not only melts away the last traces of winter but also sparks a quiet urge to refresh our surroundings. The cupboards that need decluttering, the baseboards that have gone untouched for months, the unworn clothes that no longer serve us—it all calls for renewal. This is the essence of spring cleaning: clearing out the old to make space for the new, both in our homes and in our minds.

For some, the idea of cleaning feels anything but peaceful. The thought of tackling clutter and dust can be overwhelming, turning what should be a refreshing transition into a dreaded chore. That’s why we’ve created a simple, practical guide to help you navigate spring cleaning with ease, turning it into a rhythmic, intentional process that mirrors the calm of the season itself.

Week 1: Refresh and Declutter

• Open windows for fresh air and let the natural light in.

• Declutter surfaces—countertops, coffee tables and shelves—removing anything unnecessary.

• Go through kitchen cabinets and toss expired pantry items and mismatched containers.

• Sort through closets, donating or repurposing clothes you haven’t worn in the past year.

• Wipe down baseboards and dust ceiling fans, light fixtures and vents.

Week 2: Deep Clean and Rejuvenate

• Wash windows and mirrors to welcome in the sunlight.

• Deep clean the fridge and pantry, wiping down shelves and organizing items.

• Launder curtains, cushion covers and throw blankets.

• Vacuum and shampoo rugs and carpets for a fresh start.

• Rotate and flip mattresses; wash all bedding, including pillows.

Week 3: Outdoor and Seasonal Transitions

• Sweep porches, patios and outdoor furniture, preparing for warm-weather gatherings.

• Check gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage.

• Tidy up gardens and potted plants, removing dead leaves and refreshing the soil.

• Store winter coats and boots, making space for lighter spring essentials.

• Replace seasonal decor—bring in fresh flowers, soft pastels and airy textures.

Week 4: Finishing Touches and Maintenance

• Touch-up scuff marks on walls and doors.

• Stock up on cleaning supplies to maintain a fresh environment.

• Set a simple weekly cleaning routine to keep your home feeling refreshed.

• Light a scented candle or diffuse essential oils to celebrate your clean, peaceful space.

LUXURY ON THE GRAND LAKE: A BRENT GIBSON DESIGN

This featured home, designed by Brent Gibson, was recently built by builder Kenton Levings on the North Shore at Grand Lake. This beautiful modern-style lake home features all the amenities for luxury lake-style living.

The design process began during an initial site visit at the property, where Brent discussed and designed the lake home concepts and sketches to ensure a proper fit.

Upon entering the large entryway, your eye is immediately drawn to the cathedral ceilings and large windows beyond in the living room, taking in a gorgeous view of the lake. The large kitchen area and island seating is a prominent feature of this home which also overlooks the lake, as well as the master bedroom. Other "grand" amenities include a full-service back kitchen and pantry for hosting large family gatherings.

The owners are especially fond of the lower living area and game room, which flow out onto a covered porch running the length of the home. Numerous guest bedrooms abound for the family and guests as well.

About the Designer Brent Gibson has designed numerous custom homes throughout the state, many on lakefronts and in exclusive neighborhoods. His 40-plus years of custom residential design have earned him top honors and awards among his peers.

He starts each home design meeting with the clients on their property to capture the vision of their dream home and begins concept drawings right there with them. His design process has helped hundreds of people attain the home they desire.

BUILT WITH PURPOSE: THE COROIU HOMES STANDARD

In a housing market often defined by speed and mass production, finding a builder who prioritizes legacy over volume is a rare discovery. For Coroiu Homes, building isn't just about erecting walls; it is about creating a sanctuary that is personal, intentional, and enduring. Founded on the principles of military discipline and architectural integrity, this veteran-owned firm is bringing a new level of precision to the custom home market.

The company’s ethos is deeply rooted in the founder’s background, where discipline and excellence were non-negotiable.

In an industry where cutting corners can be common, Coroiu Homes takes the opposite path. They deliberately limit the number of homes they build each year, ensuring that every single project receives undivided attention. This refusal to chase volume allows the team to reject production-line plans in favor of "strong bones, bold design, and homes that are built to outlast trends."

The result is a home that feels grounded—one that utilizes timeless materials and smart floor plans to create a space that feels like it truly belongs to the land it stands on.

For the client, this approach translates into a relationship built on trust and clarity. The building process can often be chaotic, but Coroiu Homes strives to make the experience "as solid as the home itself." Whether a client arrives with full blueprints or just a vision, the firm promises full transparency from the initial conversation to the final walkthrough.

"We believe a home should feel grounded," the team affirms. "Let’s build something that lasts."

This custom home is a study in timeless design—where classic architecture meets modern livability. From its thoughtfully composed exterior to its warm, layered interiors, the home was designed to feel established, grounded, and enduring rather than trend-driven. Natural materials, hand-selected finishes, and intentional proportions give the house real character and charm, while modern systems quietly elevate everyday life.

Notable Features

Full smart home integration

Oversized, heated garage with ample storage

Whole-home water filtration system

Private guest suite for extended stays

Custom wood beams throughout Spa-level primary bath featuring a steam shower

Outdoor living area with motorized patio roller shades

Fully equipped outdoor kitchen and fireplace

Thoughtful indoor-outdoor connection for year-round entertaining

For homeowners looking for unmatched attention to detail and refined craftsmanship, Coroiu Homes offers a promise of quality that is built to stand the test of time.

Inside, exposed wood beams, soft neutral tones, and carefully scaled lighting create a sense of warmth and permanence. The layout balances openness with intimacy, making the home equally suited for quiet family living or hosting guests. Every space was designed with longevity in mind—built not just to impress, but to age beautifully.

At Randolph Design + Build, the work is guided by a considered approach to design — one that values character, craftsmanship, and longevity.

Where others may see an old door or original hardware, they see an opportunity to recreate — to reimagine how a piece with history can be thoughtfully integrated into a new space. Time is taken to source materials that feel worthy of being built around, ensuring each element contributes meaning and distinction. Incorporating salvaged doors,

MID-CENTURY WARMTH, REIMAGINED

There’s a certain moment when a house stops feeling new and starts feeling like home. It isn’t marked by square footage or finishes alone. It is something quieter, more emotional. In this home, designer Kate Manz set out to do exactly that: give a newly built home a heartbeat and a soul.

Rather than treating the house as one sweeping statement, she approached each room as its own story, layered with meaning, memory, and texture. The result is a home that feels collected, personal, and deeply lived-in.

“Tackling each space and room as its own story and concept is how to make a new space feel personal,” Manz explains. “But bringing it all together cohesively is always the challenge.”

Her solution? Warmth, intention, and a strong belief in the power of people. In new builds it can take years for a home to shed its newness. For this project, the goal was to fast-track that sense of belonging by layering in pieces with history and heart. Vintage market finds, local artists, and meaningful objects play a starring role throughout the home.

“My love for design goes hand in hand with the people and stories that bring it to life,” she says. “I absolutely love seeing the evolution from concept to completion and all the elements and people that help bring those ideas to reality.”

That philosophy becomes especially important in the home’s expansive open-concept living area, where scale could easily overpower intimacy.

THE OPEN CONCEPT, REIMAGINED

The main living space is defined by bringing the outside in with sweeping outdoor views and generous proportions. Rather than fighting that openness, embrace it.

“The big open concept room really highlights the expansive outdoor views,” she says, “but making intimate spaces within that open room was really important.”

A layered niche wall, created in collaboration with the interior architect Nick Flower, brings both structure and softness to the room. It introduces texture, depth, and a place for unique objects and family heirlooms to live, turning negative space into a personal gallery.

ENTRYWAY: A WARM WELCOME

The entryway sets the tone with a simple but powerful goal: Welcome to my home.

Natural stone underfoot grounds the space, while a soft vintage rug and living greenery immediately soften the experience. Art with personal meaning invites guests to linger rather than rush through.

POWDER BATH: SMALL ROOM, BOLD SPIRIT

If there’s one place Manz encourages clients to take risks, it’s the powder room. Here, she leaned into terracotta earth tones, layering textures and tile sizes for visual interest and warmth. Patterned and solid tiles work together, while textured wall coverings and a sculptural stone sink elevate the space from functional to delightful.

LOUNGE: A STUDY IN CALM AND DEPTH

Designed as a counterpoint to the openness of the main living area, the lounge is a cocoon, both peaceful, layered, and deeply versatile. It’s a place for reading, movie nights and slow mornings.

Rich tones and varied textures do the heavy lifting here, creating depth without heaviness. Soft lighting and custom upholstery make the room feel both intentional and effortless.

At its core, this home is a reminder that design isn’t about perfection, but rather it’s about feeling. By treating each room as its own narrative while weaving in warmth, history, and human connection, a space was created that already feels loved.
