The subtle shades of white and gray of the Carrera marble is complimented by the muted purple wallpaper. The chrome in the wall sconces and plumbing fixtures add a touch of sparkle. A classic and timeless design was achieved by using Carrera marble in the different tile shapes, and on the other surfaces, i.e. the sink, tub skirt and baseboards, thus diminishing the length of the room and creating a cohesive and inviting bathroom. The home owner was very happy with the completed project, and proud to share it with her guests.Mary Broerman, CCIDC

Kitchen - contemporary kitchen idea in DC Metro

Pathways paved with crushed stone meander through this incredible space. We planted drought tolerant perennials; nepeta, euphorbia, pittosporum tobira wheelers dwarf, dymondia and lavender. Olive trees and Oaks surround this lovely garden.

A waterfront view like in this 1988-built master bathroom is priceless, especially with the existing skylight. The bath was taken down to studs and rebuilt, removing a wall between the toilet/shower area and opening up the entire 140sqft space. Curbless shower, freestanding airjet tub, rainhead shower and porcelain tile and oil-rubbed bronze fixtures throughout. An additional intrigue was recessed lights in tub and shower areas that have option to turn on UV light after use to diminish bacteria.

Originally, this was an open space with sharply sloped ceilings which drastically diminished usable space. Sloped ceilings and angled walls present a challenge, but innovative design solutions have the power to transform an awkward space into an organizational powerhouse. Kara Lashuay

Example of a small eclectic master light wood floor bedroom design in Grand Rapids with blue walls

Mid-Century Remodel on Tabor Hill This sensitively sited house was designed by Robert Coolidge, a renowned architect and grandson of President Calvin Coolidge. The house features a symmetrical gable roof and beautiful floor to ceiling glass facing due south, smartly oriented for passive solar heating. Situated on a steep lot, the house is primarily a single story that steps down to a family room. This lower level opens to a New England exterior. Our goals for this project were to maintain the integrity of the original design while creating more modern spaces. Our design team worked to envision what Coolidge himself might have designed if he'd had access to modern materials and fixtures. With the aim of creating a signature space that ties together the living, dining, and kitchen areas, we designed a variation on the 1950's "floating kitchen." In this inviting assembly, the kitchen is located away from exterior walls, which allows views from the floor-to-ceiling glass to remain uninterrupted by cabinetry. We updated rooms throughout the house; installing modern features that pay homage to the fine, sleek lines of the original design. Finally, we opened the family room to a terrace featuring a fire pit. Since a hallmark of our design is the diminishment of the hard line between interior and exterior, we were especially pleased for the opportunity to update this classic work.

The cabinets are custom designed and built by me and provide fantastic storage where the had been an unnecessary extra tub. We have other full bathrooms so the home value was not diminished.

Living room - transitional carpeted living room idea in Salt Lake City with white walls

Switching the position of the kitchen from a cramped galley space near the front door to a much bigger space adjacent to the back yard allowed for much more storage and counters space, an eating space in the kitchen and a great view. The space became a flow through type great room and now has a bonus office space with a double glass pocket door for sound protection without diminishing the light.
