This eclectic design features: ✨ Cambria Harlech quartz countertops which have sophisticated, rich coppers and golds dancing behind a dramatic dark brown copper vein paired with a stainless steel subway tile backsplash for a modern industrial style edge ✨ Floor to ceiling elevated Shaker style cabinetry with beadboard accent, a decorative venthood and butcher block island with ornate legs giving this space lots of personality ✨ All the bells & whistles for the home chef - microwave drawer in the butcher block prep island with trash can drawer, 6 burner professional range with pot filler and high powered range hood above and a huge single basin apron front sink. This collaboration of modern features, traditional elements and industrial-inspired accents was blended just right to create a sophisticated kitchen that's also warm and inviting.

This master bathroom renovation transforms a builder-grade standard into a personalized retreat for our lovely Stapleton clients. Recognizing a need for change, our clients called on us to help develop a space that would capture their aesthetic loves and foster relaxation. Our design focused on establishing an airy and grounded feel by pairing various shades of white, natural wood, and dynamic textures. We replaced the existing ceramic floor tile with wood-look porcelain tile for a warm and inviting look throughout the space. We then paired this with a reclaimed apothecary vanity from Restoration Hardware. This vanity is coupled with a bright Caesarstone countertop and warm bronze faucets from Delta to create a strikingly handsome balance. The vanity mirrors are custom-sized and trimmed with a coordinating bronze frame. Elegant wall sconces dance between the dark vanity mirrors and bright white full height mirrors flanking the bathtub. The tub itself is an oversized freestanding bathtub paired with a tall bronze tub filler. We've created a feature wall with Tile Bar's Billowy Clouds ceramic tile floor to ceiling behind the tub. The wave-like movement of the tiles offers a dramatic texture in a pure white field. We removed the existing shower and extended its depth to create a large new shower. The walls are tiled with a large format high gloss white tile. The shower floor is tiled with marble circles in varying sizes that offer a playful aesthetic in an otherwise minimalist space. We love this pure, airy retreat and are thrilled that our clients get to enjoy it for many years to come!

Perhaps you imagined expansive windows framing panoramic ocean views or a seamless indoor-outdoor living space where the line between inside and outside blurred. As the project gained momentum, the house underwent a metamorphosis. Walls were torn down, revealing the raw canvas upon which your vision would unfold.
