Inspiration for a coastal family room remodel in Boston

Huge re-model including taking ceiling from a flat ceiling to a complete transformation. Bamboo custom cabinetry was given a grey stain, mixed with walnut strip on the bar and the island given a different stain. Huge amounts of storage from deep pan corner drawers, roll out trash, coffee station, built in refrigerator, wine and alcohol storage, appliance garage, pantry and appliance storage, the amounts go on and on. Floating shelves with a back that just grabs the eye takes this kitchen to another level. The clients are thrilled with this huge difference from their original space.

MOSAIC MIST Shimmering tile, soft greys and spa-day ease. DESIGN DESCRIPTION This bathroom proves that a modest footprint can still feel like a private spa. Clean white tile sets a bright, airy backdrop, punctuated by a shimmering panel of glass and stone mosaic that frames the tub like a work of art. The same mosaic returns as a band behind the vanity, tying the room together. A frameless glass screen, body sprays and a handheld wand turn the tub into a full shower experience, while a recessed niche keeps essentials tidy. A floating charcoal vanity with an integrated sink and a glass waterfall faucet pairs with a mirrored cabinet lit by slim vertical lights. Light wood-look floating shelves, a heated towel rail and a tall frosted glass cabinet add warmth and clever storage. Bright, calm and thoughtfully planned, it makes the everyday routine feel like a treat.
