This Crofton, MD kitchen design was completely transformed while maintaining the basic U-shaped kitchen layout. The Solstice team opened up the compact kitchen to the adjacent dining room, leaving a half wall to maintain cabinet storage and countertop space. The HomeCrest Dover maple kitchen cabinets in Sand Dollar were extended beyond the basic kitchen footprint to add storage and create a fluid transition between the kitchen and living area. The cabinetry features soft close doors, accented by Hardware Resources Belfast dull nickel hardware. Behind the cabinet doors is ample customized storage including tray dividers and a double trash can pull out. The Via Lattea Group B granite countertop and Compass Tile random linear mosaic backsplash offer stylish contrast to the cabinet finish. An Allora USA sink with a Moen "Arbor" pull out sprayer faucet faces out the kitchen window. The resulting kitchen design transforms this room into a bright, stylish space that links the dining and living areas.

Alpine, funk, gezellig - these words drove the design direction of this modern ski chalet.
To emphasize the high ceilings and huge windows, a simple color palette of a custom black, white and whitewashed wood were incorporated, along with calculated hits of color and pattern. A reverse floor plan, with the kitchen and living room on the third floor, highlight the importance of the two spaces where the family spends most of their time together. Here, windows surround the space on all four sides providing ample natural light. A large, stoic fireplace is balanced with a not so basic Ikea sectional covered in a playful, funky, custom designed fabric based off of a 16th century Dutch painting.
Function and durability reign supreme in the entrance and bedrooms, where rubber flooring was used for use with wet snow gear and bunks were installed for ultimate sleepover and mountain vibes. Through layered textures, a high contrast palette and unconventional design elements, this ski chalet is anything but ordinary.

This upper level hallway is where you can tell that this is TRULY a transitional home! The richly colored, almost rustic floor contrasts with the clean, white trim. The beaded reading nook and mitered cabinets have a more traditional feel, but the exuberant orange paint and general openness of the the layout point towards contemporary.

Mid century modern bathroom design. Mixing warm wood tones with a lot of white subway tile. We contrasted the subway tile by using black grout. This vanity is "floating" it has no legs and is actually mounted to the wall. Cambria in Brittanica Gold was the perfect choice for this vanity top. We love the movement it provides as well as the warm color. The tub was selected by the home owner, we referred to it as the "egg tub" as it reminded us of a hard boiled egg cut in half. Delta plumbing fixtures were used throughout. We added a lot of plants for a lively feel and to contrast against all of the white.
