The renovated kitchen is in the exact same footprint as the original. Yet, it is now fresh, clean and romantically vintage in appeal while modern in approach.

A modern guest suite comes alive with colorful accents in the form of a multi-tone rug, punchy pillows, and whimsical modern art against a background of serene white Jim Bartsch

The shape of the angled porch-roof, sets the tone for a truly modern entryway. This protective covering makes a dramatic statement, as it hovers over the front door. The blue-stone terrace conveys even more interest, as it gradually moves upward, morphing into steps, until it reaches the porch. Porch Detail The multicolored tan stone, used for the risers and retaining walls, is proportionally carried around the base of the house. Horizontal sustainable-fiber cement board replaces the original vertical wood siding, and widens the appearance of the facade. The color scheme — blue-grey siding, cherry-wood door and roof underside, and varied shades of tan and blue stone — is complimented by the crisp-contrasting black accents of the thin-round metal columns, railing, window sashes, and the roof fascia board and gutters. This project is a stunning example of an exterior, that is both asymmetrical and symmetrical. Prior to the renovation, the house had a bland 1970s exterior. Now, it is interesting, unique, and inviting. Photography Credit: Tom Holdsworth Photography Contractor: Owings Brothers Contracting

This long & narrow kitchen called for a galley type of layout. It was not quite wide enough to get a coveted island into the mix...so we made it even BETTER with extra deep countertops giving plenty of room for prepping. Fresh paint & new windows & access to the patio allows sunlight to fill the space. And for all you vertically challenged folks out there who are constantly climbing on a footstool or chair to reach past your 2nd shelf in the cabinets - incorporate a rolling library ladder! The height, length & width of this kitchen makes this detail super practical, functional...and did we mention it looks uber cool! Chris Haver Photography

Kitchen - traditional dark wood floor and brown floor kitchen idea in Boston with shaker cabinets, white cabinets, marble countertops, white backsplash, marble backsplash, an island and gray countertops

This project was a primary suite remodel that we began pre-pandemic. The primary bedroom was an addition to this waterfront home and we added character with bold board-and-batten statement wall, rich natural textures, and brushed metals. The primary bathroom received a custom white oak vanity that spanned over nine feet long, brass and matte black finishes, and an oversized steam shower in Zellige-inspired tile.
