Entry into new home felt a bit bare so we added a bench on one side and created this moment here. Tip: I always love a leaning mirror instead of hanging it above console or mantel - just be sure to anchor it.
Hidden pantry✔️ Custom taupe cabinets ✔️ Oversized organic WOW pendants✔️Custom white hood beautiful in its simplicity ✔️ Coffee station with stained wood insets ✔️ Apron sink ✔️. Too much to love in this home I just finished with @robert.lucke.homes
Love @lovevsdesign wallpaper company that allows complete customization of colors! Subtle for an accent in kitchen and bold in powder room. Next up laundry room❤️
The mudroom is the first room that welcomes your family home. The arches and the bold, beautiful green make this small space feel special. And baskets with lids hide any mess - I think I need these at my house!
Oversized marbled checkerboard tile is classic and has such an impact. To let the polished gold plumbing fixtures be the star we did bleached rope sconces for lighting and frameless mirrors and the result is luxury, timelessness and a calm, organic feel. Love!
I love a bold powder room but for this client I wanted an organic,calm oasis. The custom quartzite vanity, cement ribbed tile behind the mirror, white oak shelf, and white oak fluted door all help create this look. But the feature we added that I love the most are the line washed walls and ceiling.
Blue boy’s bedroom converted into a beautiful home office with classic Parisienne vibes❤️
Small kitchen? Removing a wall and going classic with off-white perimeter cabinets and stained island is always a good bet. In this case we filled in a window to gain more wall cabinets and added a cabinet pantry designed to look like furniture. Simple but beautiful and classic and kitchen looks so much bigger and brighter now (see BEFORE by scrolling through).
Can’t do a full reveal yet as all the furniture is not yet in…. but am already loving this boy’s blue bedroom conversion into an office. Wanted something more special than a closet so we took doors off so @melissa_goettke could construct these gorgeous built-ins we painted the deepest green and add the wall molding. Finishing touch was painting this desk we bought for $25 thanks to @coriekline and adding this stunning flush mount. Full reveal coming when desk chair, accent chair and other pieces are in.
Expanded kitchen renovation and family room addition on east side. Warm and cozy for a lovely family. We had a couple challenges that we problem solved with @builtwithvision that ended up adding character. A very large beam going through center of kitchen that we wrapped and stained and the need for a budget friendly fireplace. I sketched up the design and Vision built in drywall and texturized to look like plaster for a beautiful finish without breaking the bank. We definitely had to splurge on this quartzite which was well worth it!
It takes courage to go from beige to a rich color drenched bedroom - thank you to the client who said “I trust you. Do whatever you want”. Love the vintage trim we added, the cast limestone fireplace, touches of burgundy and of course the dark dusky blue paint. BEFORE is next swipe over. @builtwithvision was the perfect partner again.
More to come on this moody, color drenched bedroom refresh but I have to give this new cast limestone surround its own moment. Swipe to see the BEFORE. This was quite a challenge - thank you @builtwithvision for making this happen.
A great contractor who turns out to be a talented photographer as well sent me these vignettes of a bathroom we recently finished together. Thank you Hannah Wells from R.E.P. General Contracting for the hard work and the photographs.
I had two challenges: 1) Giving this old Victorian home a kitchen that looked like it had always been there but with a funky fresh vibe for a young, creative couple and 2) Resisting the urge to steal painfully cute Luna after she followed me everywhere and gratefully photo bombed every pic. Lots of glass storage and some open shelves in the corner that can showcase eclectic items and an island open on one side to hold books and odd and ends help give the kitchen a lived in charm. But can we all just ooh and ahh over this custom deep red-bordering-on-burgundy cabinetry mixed with antique brass accents!
Love the timeless elegance of this new primary bathroom renovation. From the oversized stone tile laid in herringbone pattern to the fluted vanity and linen cabinet. Let’s not forget the huge arched shower with double shower heads and the cute nook behind the shower where we can hide the hamper and towels. Thanks REP Contracting for helping to make this happen.
Bland, cold eat in sunroom (scroll for BEFORE pic) is now a sophisticated and whimsical inviting space for family dining. The only thing we kept was the furniture - we color saturated the room by painting walls, casing, baseboards and built-ins a deep smoky green, added shelves to built-ins and updated hardware. And of course replaced the chandelier with this oversized gesso beauty and added whimsical lemon tree art. But absolute best change was the custom wallpaper by @lovevsdesign . I chose the style and colors and they helped compile the pattern for the unique hex ceiling. Made a complicated project so much easier!
Small kitchen, big impact ... new renovation with lots of charm in Hyde Park. To accent all the creams and taupes we did this beautiful checkerboard floor compliments of @edward.martin and to maximize space we did a corner taupe sink and an appliance garage on other side. Biggest challenge we had was how to end the tile so it wasn’t too abrupt. Added these floating shelves at the edge supplied by @urbandi painted to match the cabinets. Thank you Ross General Contractors for the beautiful execution.
With final touches complete, reposting this bathroom I did in partnership with @builtwithvision earlier this year. Swipe to see BEFORE pic to really appreciate the transformation.
Client asked what to do with unused room in front of house. We added built-ins and turned it into a reading nook/puzzle/game room. She told me yesterday they use it every day now! Morning reading in the oversized chair and her teens do their homework at the table before family game nights. And it’s such a beautiful, welcoming entry into their home.
Newly completed kitchen in Hyde Park - a fresh, modern take that still fits this beautiful old home perfectly. You know I love a green kitchen so we did a custom gray-green color on perimeter and warm white oak on island and side piece accented with legs and a brass sconce to look like a piece of furniture. Obsessed with the zellige mosaic backsplash - maybe my favorite element of all. Should have waited for runner and bench cushion … but I couldn’t. All possible thanks to architect Jason Schneider @cadmonk3y.
Neutral doesn’t have to be boring. We love how this laundry room renovation turned out. Touches we added for neutral interest include a herringbone LVP, a special laundry sink, openings for rolling hampers, woven baskets and one of my favorite neutral backsplash tiles. Another beautiful collaboration with @builtwithvision and @gabledesign .
