Incredible Design doesn't happen by accident. It takes good planning, attention to detail, and a client who's willing to allow our designers to do what they do best! Just look at this DESIGNfirst original Bathroom remodel. The richness of the Custom Cabinets in a sharp blue finish pop against the detailed Tile Wall and brass fixtures. A custom shower with beautiful contrasting tile elements help to entice the user's eyes to dance about the space. With very tall ceilings, the darker paint helps to bring it settle a bit and not feel so overwhelming! What would an amazing remodel like this be without the client's very own Sauna!?

Surrounded by trees and a symphony of song birds, this handsome Rustic Mountain Home is a hidden jewel with an impressive articulation of texture and symmetry.

The sleek modern touches throughout the interior include Minimalistic Interior Trim, Monochromatic Wall Paint, Open Stair Treads, and Clean Lines that create an airy feel. Rustic Wood Floors and Pickled Shiplap Walls add warmth to the space, creating a perfect balance of clean and comfortable.

In this multi-functional family room for three, the main objective was to create a space that is not only visually desirable and inviting, but also a place where my client and family can retreat to and relax together. I transformed their warm, outdated, traditional space, into a bright and enticing family room with a rustic flair; by defining a tonal color palette of slate grays with a pop of blues. I achieved this sophisticated feel by keeping the design symmetrical, open, and balanced, selecting a fresh monochromatic palette and using a variety of textures.
