The dramatic effects are amplified bringing the outdoors in with full height windows on the exterior wall and into the shower. Mirroring those full height windows, the firm took sleek frameless mirrors from counter to the ceiling over the floating vanities, reflecting the beauty of the outside, and further opening the already generous space. Soft black, white and charcoal tones are then repeated in the natural stone penny rounds of the shower floor. Tre Dunham - Fine Focus Photography

Inspiration for a mid-sized contemporary home design remodel in New York

Home and Living Examiner said: Modern renovation by J Design Group is stunning J Design Group, an expert in luxury design, completed a new project in Tamarac, Florida, which involved the total interior remodeling of this home. We were so intrigued by the photos and design ideas, we decided to talk to J Design Group CEO, Jennifer Corredor. The concept behind the redesign was inspired by the client’s relocation. Andrea Campbell: How did you get a feel for the client's aesthetic? Jennifer Corredor: After a one-on-one with the Client, I could get a real sense of her aesthetics for this home and the type of furnishings she gravitated towards. The redesign included a total interior remodeling of the client's home. All of this was done with the client's personal style in mind. Certain walls were removed to maximize the openness of the area and bathrooms were also demolished and reconstructed for a new layout. This included removing the old tiles and replacing with white 40” x 40” glass tiles for the main open living area which optimized the space immediately. Bedroom floors were dressed with exotic African Teak to introduce warmth to the space. We also removed and replaced the outdated kitchen with a modern look and streamlined, state-of-the-art kitchen appliances. To introduce some color for the backsplash and match the client's taste, we introduced a splash of plum-colored glass behind the stove and kept the remaining backsplash with frosted glass. We then removed all the doors throughout the home and replaced with custom-made doors which were a combination of cherry with insert of frosted glass and stainless steel handles. All interior lights were replaced with LED bulbs and stainless steel trims, including unique pendant and wall sconces that were also added. All bathrooms were totally gutted and remodeled with unique wall finishes, including an entire marble slab utilized in the master bath shower stall. Once renovation of the home was completed, we proceeded to install beautiful high-end modern furniture for interior and exterior, from lines such as B&B Italia to complete a masterful design. One-of-a-kind and limited edition accessories and vases complimented the look with original art, most of which was custom-made for the home. To complete the home, state of the art A/V system was introduced. The idea is always to enhance and amplify spaces in a way that is unique to the client and exceeds his/her expectations.

The approach to Edge House, a walk through verdant woodland abundant with ferns and moss, is a lesson in arrival. What appears is a woodsy yet contemporary dwelling divided into two volumes, framing an ocean view. Located on an island off Midcoast, Maine, Edge House is a low-slung cabin that hugs the rocky coast. The client commissioned Charles Rose Architects to design a simple cottage retreat that could take full advantage of the view, while also remaining inconspicuously nestled in the trees. The solution was a simple wood-shingled structure that features large glass windows, connecting both structure and inhabitant to the site. From the water’s edge, only a few hundred meters away, the house is barely visible. The selection of contextual materials, specifically cedar shingles, was meant to embed the structure in the landscape. For the interior, bedrooms are purposefully small, and beds were positioned close to the full-height windows, allowing occupants to immerse themselves in the view. Clerestory windows under the roof further amplify the quality of natural light and create a weightless effect on the roof from the outside. The stone fireplace, located in the living room, was crafted with stones gathered from the site as another way to bring the outdoors in.

Poised within the exclusive Dancing Sun neighborhood of Tuhaye, Cloudveil is a 5,820-square-foot statement of elevated living — a refined mountain retreat where modern architecture, rich materiality, and natural serenity converge. With four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and a design that embraces both comfort and sophistication, Cloudveil delivers a deeply personal take on luxury. The interiors reflect a masculine, modern aesthetic, marked by clean lines, grounded textures, and a restrained elegance. Anchoring the home is a dramatic open-concept living area, where custom Burchette & Burchette wood flooring sets the tone for timeless quality underfoot. Expansive glazing brings in filtered mountain light, evoking the home's namesake — soft, shifting veils of cloud that dance across the landscape. Bespoke lighting and tailored finishes amplify the home’s curated ambiance. For the wellness-minded, Cloudveil features a private spa sanctuary, complete with a custom sauna designed to soothe and restore. A dedicated golf simulator suite offers both leisure and precision, while generous gathering spaces — both indoors and out — encourage year-round entertaining. Fire features, intimate lounges, and mountain views make every moment immersive. Thoughtful details include an integrated smart lighting system, luxurious bath fixtures, and handcrafted millwork throughout — all chosen to enhance both the daily rhythm and the visual serenity of the home. Cloudveil is more than a home. It is a high-altitude haven — a quiet, powerful presence nestled in the Wasatch, where every element is designed not just to impress, but to endure.
