Our clients came to Marvista Design + Build for a reconfiguration of their entire home. The existing layout of the first floor left the family with insufficient space to cook, while the layout of the second floor created a desire for a larger bathroom and reimagined closet space.
We started by designing an open-concept layout for the first floor, which gave our clients ample space to prepare meals using their professional-grade appliances in the kitchen, and a connecting dining room to enjoy those home-cooked meals together. They were drawn to a blue and white palette, which we brought to life with beautiful blue cabinetry and stunning, full height porcelain herringbone backsplash spanning from the countertops to the cabinets. We also renovated their first-floor powder room with fun wallpaper that provided a fresh take on the home’s spirited past.
As we moved onto the second floor, we combined the existing bathroom with a number of less-functional closet spaces to create a “spa-like” bathroom that provided space and serenity. The combination of stone flooring and walnut cabinetry created a calming and natural feel, and the perfect environment to enjoy their new large soaking tub. We also created a youthful, yet timeless bathroom, for their children to enjoy with stunning sage cabinetry.

Built by Schumacher Homes, America's Largest Custom Home Builder, this stunning Windsor II Modern Farmhouse in Bowling Green, Ohio, effortlessly balances classic architectural details with modern elements. High-end first impressions start the moment you step inside the home, where elegant glass French doors create a bright, airy entrance that establishes a warm, inviting welcome for guests. Inspired by the popular Windsor plan, the Windsor II maximizes spatial flow with an open-concept layout on the first floor, seamlessly connecting the family room, dining area, and kitchen into a unified heart of the home. This expansive main living space is anchored by a dramatic, two-story electric fireplace that brings immense height and sophisticated style to the great room, combining custom wood and tile finishes to provide the perfect cozy focal point.
Designed for premium organization and practicality, the entry from the garage features a highly functional, custom built-in drop zone. Outfitted with dedicated lockers and cubbies, this mudroom space streamlines daily routines by providing a designated area for everyday essentials. For ultimate main-level privacy, the luxurious owner’s retreat serves as a secluded sanctuary on the first floor, featuring abundant storage thanks to two separate walk-in closets. The spa-like owner's bath offers a premium getaway experience, beautifully appointed with a contemporary freestanding soaking tub and a custom tile shower. Upstairs, the home transitions into an entertainment-focused second floor featuring a versatile media room designed to be the ultimate hub for hosting family and friends for movie nights, weekend sports, and casual game nights.

The Problem-
We undertook this Transitional Kitchen Remodel with Prescott homeowners who were looking for an open floor plan. Most importantly they wanted to tie the kitchen and living room together. As a result, creating one open concept transitional entertaining space. Additionally, this homeowner was a professional cook and needed an expansive workplace to cook with plenty of space for prep.
The Solution-
First, we tore down floor to ceiling dividing walls that separated the kitchen from the living room. Then we got rid of a soffit that trapped the entire kitchen which made it feel tight and cramped. Next, we expanded the kitchen using Maple Grey Mist Cabinets from Wellborn. Adding an eat-in island with accent Gauntlet Maple Cabinets makes this kitchen suitable for entertaining guests while keeping with the transitional kitchen design. Finally, we kept the flow from the kitchen into the living room seamless with luxury vinyl plank flooring.

The ultimate foyer vestibule by : Tania Scardellato – TOC design
You know what they say about first impressions. Since the entryway is what your guests' will see right away — make sure the furniture, paint color, and seating that you choose send the right message
This grand foyer was lacking storage, you had to walk 10 feet to get to the closet. By building a custom double sided storage / bench unit we were able to define the space adding storage, a sitting area mirror and hooks without taking the space away from this massive open concept. Above a huge LED ball light fixture not only provides great light but showcases the cathedral ceilings and adds an ornamental design to this once dead space.
The porcelain and mosaic floor defines the space so that guests know to stay in this area and remove wet dirty boots.

• Manufacturing and installing 12” x 12 ft x ¾” solid birch hardwood floor for entire first floor. This was finished with Low-VOC water based finish.
• Reuse of some of the existing lumber and plywood in the same project was essential.
• Installing LED recess lighting and task lighting with Lurton Home system lighting management and controllable low voltage dimmers.
• Installing high efficiency with the highest rating of Energy Star appliances.
• Installing high grade closed cell insulation in walls and open space, caulking and sealing all open gaps.

A preliminary design concept that we were developing over the summer. We broke ground this week on the first phase of this front planting design! Our design build teams have been laying out the planting beds, drainage, and front entry wall. I am working on purchasing the specimen trees!

Our client loved their neighborhood and many things about their ranch home in Occoquan VA, but they wanted to open up the outdated kitchen and brighten up the dark living room and dining room.
We removed the partition wall between the kitchen, dining room, and living room to create a completely open floor plan on the first level of the home. A custom island with drawer storage was integrated into the design to allow for gatherings with family and friends. The entire first floor is now bright, open and functional-and best of all-our homeowners love the final result.
