The homeowners of this Marblehead residence wished to remodel their master bathroom, which had been redone only a few years prior. The previous renovation, however, was not a pleasant experience and they were hesitant to dive-in again. After an initial conversation, the homeowners agreed to meet with me to discuss the project.
listened to their vision for the room, paid close attention to their concerns, and desire to create a tranquil environment, that would be functional and practical for their everyday lifestyle.
In my first walk-through of the existing bathroom, several major issues became apparent. First, the vanity, a wooden table with two vessel sinks, did not allow access to the medicine cabinets due to its depth. Second, an oversized window installed in the shower did not provide privacy and had visible signs of rot. Third, the wallpaper by the shower was peeling and contained mold due to moisture. Finally, the hardwood flooring selected was impractical for a master bathroom.
My suggestion was to incorporate timeless and classic materials that would provide longevity and create an elegant environment. I designed a standard depth custom vanity which contained plenty of storage. We chose lovely white and blue quartzite counter tops, white porcelain tile that mimic the look of Thasos marble, along with blue accents, polished chrome fixtures and coastal inspired lighting. Next, we replaced, relocated, and changed the window style and shape. We then fabricated a window frame out of the quartzite for protection which proved to give the shower a lovely focal point. Lastly, to keep with the coastal theme of the room, we installed shiplap for the walls.
The homeowners now look forward to starting and ending their day in their bright and relaxing master bath. It has become a sanctuary to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Master bathroom remodel where we kept the original footprint for the most part but we updated all the materials, added some elegant lighting and speculator tile. The wood tile flooring was cut to a smaller size to create smaller pattern. The vanity walls feature a glass v shaped tile surrounded by marble linear. The crystal chandelier over the tub and at the vanity wall add an elegance to this master bathroom.

This cozy backyard offers a clutter-free design with matching pavers and walls. This was made possible with Umbriano paving stones and matching U-Cara in Umbriano-finish for the walls and fire feature. Pillars anchor the patio with built-in lights for added ambiance.

This bathroom remodeling project transformed an outdated and impractical space into a sophisticated and contemporary primary bathroom. By removing the existing tub and closing off one of the two entry points, we streamlined the layout, making the bathroom exclusive to the primary bedroom.
The newly designed walk-in shower features a shower pan with 2-inch round mosaic Shoji White Matte tiles and a linear tile-in drain, creating a clean look. The shower walls are adorned with 2.5x10 matte Kumo Grey subway tiles, arranged in a unique vertical stack lines pattern with linear accents, adding a touch of artistic flair. The shower is open, featuring a custom frameless glass panel with brass hardware, which enhances the spacious and airy feel.
The vanity is a contemporary yet timeless Sonoma Solid Teak piece, measuring 60 inches wide by 22 inches deep. The vanity wall ties the design together with a matching backsplash made from the same shower wall tiles. A mirror flanked by two sconce lights and wall-mounted faucets in brass finish complete the elegant look.
All plumbing fixtures and hardware are in a brass finish, complementing the Spanish contemporary design that exudes sophistication, warmth, and artistic vibes. This remodel not only modernized the bathroom but also created a cohesive and luxurious space that feels both inviting and stylish.

JUMA architects were contacted for the interior design of a shell-state apartment on the coast. The structural construction, the plastering, the floor screed and the technical fittings (heating ducts, plumbing, electricity and ventilation) of the apartment had already been realised.
It soon became apparent, however, that the assignment could not be limited to the interior decoration only, as the placement of kitchen, bathroom and dressing room in the existing plan turned out to be entirely impractical. More extensive renovation work was needed to meet the needs of the customer. The structure of the unit was therefore slightly adjusted to make the bathroom and dressing larger and more functional.
Also, the living room was dominated by a huge radiator that drew all the attention. To solve this problem, new pipes were laid to accommodate an integrated heating element in the sideboard. Gas pipes were fitted in the kitchen for the gas cooker which JUMA included in the design as a real eye-catcher. The sinks, in contrast, were given a more discreet placement.
Light oak parquet was selected for the floors throughout the apartment. The natural appearance of the wood gives all the rooms a warm feel. The built-in furniture was custom made and is finished in black satin lacquer to contrast the light-coloured wood. The dominant colour palette is deliberately kept very simple and neutral and is complemented with light grey tones and colour accents. The colour choice was in fact inspired by a beautiful picture of the coast.
The freestanding furniture and overall decorations were also selected or designed by JUMA architects. The arrangement of the seating area is very playful and atypical. JUMA did not want to put in a couch that would divide the space in two. The composition is meant to create a very open ambiance. A round table was chosen for the same reason. The round shape does not divide the space but allows fluid circulation.
