Ann Kenkel Interiors Coastal Estate in St. Michael's Maryland on the Chesapeake Bay. House was designed after the original 1770's house on the property. Home was designed to be a formal house but was now being used as a weekend retreat. Ann Kenkel had to decorate the house in a manner which was coastal enough so owner's felt like they were on vacation yet formal enough for the style of the house. AK found the house filled with wallpaper from the 1980's. Wallpaper from every room was removed and all trim had to be painted a neutral color. The formal dining room only had one entry. AK opened up a second entry into the dining room which provided a view of the Chesapeake Bay.

This was a lovely bathroom renovation we did. The mirrors, shower glass, and cabinets are all custom made pieces. We did a split level Vanity to accommodate both clients heights and it came together perfectly.

After moving into the home in the 80s, the homeowners had not invested much in upgrading their home, rather focusing on their careers and family. Now both retired and their family well established, it was time to invest in themselves and modernize their home into one that aligns with today’s goals as well as the future. A home that adapts with their life, a forever home. Our clients’ goals included creating a home that was functional, comfortable, and accessible while integrating the indoor/outdoor environments. Overall, the existing layout functioned well, but each area in the home had specific design goals to allow them to stay living in the home for years to come. Reimagining the arrangements of interior walls and removing sunken rooms accomplished single-level living that was accessible, comfortable, functional and cohesive. A more spacious and efficient kitchen and ensuite layout, wider interior doors, and expansive windows are just a few of the design elements that were incorporated to accomplish accessible living for aging in place. Expansive windows accomplished integrating the indoor with the outdoors while promoting natural light throughout the interior spaces. While the existing home was very well built for its time, the insulation, windows, and mechanical systems were due for an upgrade to help create a more comfortable space throughout. Our goal for this project is to accomplish Ottawa’s first Net-Zero Ready Renovation. In order for Lagois Design-Build-Renovate to accomplish this, we had to take a holistic approach, renovating a home for today while creating a home for the future. Insulation, windows, mechanical systems, and ventilation upgrades are for the most part simple to accomplish. The biggest challenge was creating an air-tight build with the existing envelope. A Net Zero home is a home that can generate as much energy as it is going to consume, typically meaning little-to-no expenses for utilities for the homeowner. While this is fantastic, the true value is the comfort created in the home.

"Builder Beige" new construction. This guest bath came with bare white cabinets, grey walls and basic frame less square mirror with vanity light over the mirror. I added this black oversize picket tile back splash with charcoal/black grout. I replaced the builder grade mirror with a round metal framed one. We changed the lighting by, removing the light above the mirror and added two sconces, one on each side. For the final touch, I added the black hardware, to ensure the white cabinets remain white for as long as possible. Cabinets without hardware tend to get dirty quicker, because the doors pick up the oils from our hands. I wanted to avoid that for as long as possible. The water closet came with this out-swing shower door. The space was extremely tight for the smallest of people, so for anyone of any size would feel closed in. So, I switched out the builder grade out-swing shower door with a semi-frame-less sliding shower door. This allows for more room to move around, opening the space up just a tad.

Location: New York, NY, United States This Loft was tastefully renovated back in the '90s, but was due for an update and an expansion of the kitchen and dining areas to accommodate the client's cooking skills and entertaining needs. EnlargIing the island and adding cabinetry to delineate the office, bar and dining areas was a priority. The bathroom was updated to feel like a tranquil spa with beautiful new tile, plumbing fixtures and cabinets. Our biggest challenge was coordinating the entire renovation while our client was out of town for the Summer! Photographed by: James Salomon

These homeowners wanted to freshen up their master bath and at the same time, improve it's overall function and retain/accentuate it's vintage qualities. There was nothing wrong with the hex tile floor, toilet, or vintage tub. The toilet was repurposed, the floor was cleaned up, and the tub refinished. Cabinetry and vintage trim was added in critical locations along with a new, taller one-sink vanity. Removing an overlay revealed a beautiful vintage door leading to storage space under the East roof. Photos by Greg Schmidt. Cabinets by Housecraft Remodeling.
