Coming from a downtown Chicago high-rise condo, these folks were ready to expand their space. The jack-and-jill bathroom for the lower level bedrooms had been oddly laid out with a narrow line-up of sink, tub, and toilet. By moving one short wall about two feet, jackhammering out 3 old drains of 9-inch-thick concrete, and adding 6 new ones, the space was expanded so each spare bedroom now has its own en suite, private bathroom with shower, along with new HVAC ducts to serve each room. Also on the lower level, the family activity room was a little “tired.” So, we fashioned decorative beams and installed new LED can lights. Planning for a future move, we gutted and refitted the large mother-in-law bathroom with elegant tall and overhead cabinets with built-in lighting. Throughout this level, carpet was replaced with concrete-compatible hardwood flooring.

This project involved expanding the existing kitchen space and remodeling the interior of the existing house to compliment the addition. The ceiling heights in the kitchen and windows were arranged to allow views of the owner’s meticulously maintained lawn and custom stone walls. The addition was designed to be compatible with the character of the existing house.

Ashley Ausley, Southeastern Interiors Along with refinishing the cabinets, the homeowners choose a new granite countertop, backsplash, and paint color for this kitchen renovation. Santa Cecelia granite brings in rich creams, golds, browns, grays, and a hint of ruby. The Marazzi Summerville Cafe au Lait 2" x 4" herringbone tile is accented beautifully with Marazzi Romance Wrought Iron pencil liner detail and coordinating Marazzi Summerville Cafe au Lait 2" x 2" mosaic on a diamond pattern over the stove. Tec Power Grout Praline grout compliments the tile nicely. The space is finished off by Sherwin William's Compatible Cream paint.

Creating a furniture plan beforehand found itself extremely helpful in shopping for the specific furniture pieces and the placement of them. Showcasing the different living areas and their compatibility, created a dining area just perfect for morning coffee and the beautiful river view, a sleeping space and a comfortable living/conversation grouping.
