Please enjoy this collection of some of my favorite design projects from this year, and what I like most about them. They all came out beautifully, capturing the needs and wants of the clients, and each space has its own unique personality. Perhaps they will inspire you for your own projects in 2019.
Parisian-Inspired Kitchen
Why I love it:
- The kitchen has so much personality, with display space designed especially for the client’s treasures and collectibles.
- I love the toile wallpaper— it is so subtle and pretty.
- The countertops are stunning— it is quartz material from Cambria, called Britannica. Not only is it hard-working and easy to maintain, it’s pattern is very striking and beautiful.
- The finishing touches really do give this kitchen the feel of a French bakery.
Colorful Kitchen
Why I love it:
- Great use of space: where there were no cabinets at all, we added a wall of them for food storage, but also for a dedicated prayer space, as requested by the clients.
- The backsplash is gorgeous— a colorful mixture of glass, metal and stone, in reds and coppers. It really adds a bold and fun touch in this room.
- I love the two-tone cabinetry— if you can’t decide whether to use painted or stained cabinets, this solution allows you to have both!
Contemporary Kitchen
Why I love it:
- I absolutely love the horizontal grain of the light wood cabinets— so modern and sleek!
- I love that we used the stunning quartz countertop on the backsplash also— that steak of color is even prettier in person.
- I love the dark walnut island— it provides a beautiful contrast to all the lighter tones in the kitchen.
Master Bath “Wet Room”
Why I love it:
- I love the challenge of taking a client’s wish list and making it all fit into a new space. In place of the too-large, dangerous step down tub, we created an enclosed wet room with a separate tub and luxurious shower. Great use of space!
- I love the color scheme and the mix of tiles— it’s very restful and elegant.
- Lighting on dimmers allows for every scenario.
“Vintage” Master Bath
Why I love it:
- I just love the overall look of this bath— the client desired a traditional, feminine, look, and she certainly got it!
- I love the crystal chandelier above the vanity— so sparkly and pretty.
- I love the huge shower with the shiny chrome fixtures. It’s functional as well as beautiful. Even the grab bar is pretty!
