Inspiration for a transitional dining room remodel in New York

A pop of Dunn Edwards Rare Turquoise wraps around the entry wall highlighted with an antique gold framed mirror that softly reflects the playfulness of the kitchen tile. Rabbit and Roar for West Elm pleated velvet swivel chair and shag white rug brighten the entire room.

2012 NARI CAPITAL COTY, MERIT AWARD WINNER, RESIDENTIAL BATH $30,000 to $60,000 The owners of this contemporary home in Centreville, Virginia, had a dated master bathroom suite that didn’t meet their modern tastes or their needs. To make the changes they wanted, the design team at Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes determined that the room would need to be gutted. All the partition walls had to go, as did the old whirlpool tub. And all of the plumbing and fixtures had to be relocated to new positions to meet the new design’s criteria. The clients previously replaced the bathroom windows with glass blocks. Thus, contemporary glass blocks were used instead of partition walls to add openness to this new bathroom layout. Large polished limestone tiles were used on the bathroom floors and walls, and stylish glass tiles were used as an accent. A free-standing oval tub adds to the room’s contemporary look and saves a lot of space as well. A two-person shower stall with a modern body spray shower system was also installed. Custom built high level cabinetry and vanities, and modern lighting—both recessed and hanging fixtures— contribute greatly to the success of the final project.

Cabinetry design includes Brookhaven frameless cabinetry in maple wood with an opaque finish Appliances used in this space include (2) refrigerator/freezer units, and a 60" range with a custom wood hood. Countertops are Statuario White Extra Marble in a honed finish.

The Indio Residence, located on an ocean side bluff in Shell Beach, is a clean, contemporary home. Taking cues from the Florin Residence, an earlier project completed for the same client, the Indio Residence is much larger with additional amenities to meet the client’s needs. At the front door, guests are greeted by floor to ceiling glass with views straight out to the ocean. Tall, grand ceilings throughout the entry and great room are highlighted by skylights, allowing for a naturally lit interior. The open concept floor plan helps highlight the custom details such as the glass encased wine room and floor to ceiling ocean-facing glass. In order to maintain a sense of privacy, the master suite and guests rooms are located on opposite wings of the home. Ideal for entertaining, this layout allows for maximum privacy and shared space alike. Additionally, a privately accessed caretakers apartment is located above the garage, complete with a living room, kitchenette, and ocean facing deck.

Fresh white walls and clean geometry highlight original features of the barn. For maximum efficiency, Franklin lined exterior walls with structurally insulated panels (SIP's). Utilizing this system over standard stick-building processes saved construction time, and insulates more efficiently than traditional insulation.

This house has a combination of classic colors. Deep Forest Green to highlight the panel shutters. A cream tone to blend with the brick body of the house on window surrounds, columns and trim. And a gloss black entry door to highlight the entrance. This was all done by Hester Painting & Decorating

Here's a closer view of the plug molding installed just below the countertop at the island. Notice how the woodgrain of the cabinets is "book-matched" with the lines continuous from drawer to door.
