Inspiration for a mid-sized transitional galley ceramic tile and gray floor dedicated laundry room remodel in Cincinnati with a single-bowl sink, white cabinets, quartz countertops, white walls, an integrated washer/dryer, recessed-panel cabinets and gray countertops

This tower style linen cabinet, was commissioned by a customer looking to finish off their bathroom renovation with a custom made-to-fit linen cabinet that would match with their vanity.
We designed and built this nearly 7 foot tall cabinet for the customer using traditional joinery methods, using rabbets and dados to hold the shelves in place for a very solid finished piece. Decorative molding and trim was added to the bottom of the cabinet and the legs provide a pleasing negative space under the tall cabinet.
Prefabricated molding, that matched the customer's vanity, was added to the top of the piece for added effect.
The piece was sealed and then finished with a white cabinet enamel. Decorative knobs were added to also match the vanity in the bathroom.

Custom Surface Solutions (www.css-tile.com) - Owner Craig Thompson (512) 430-1215. This project shows the remodel of a small 1950's vintage home master bathroom. 8"" x 18" Calcutta gold marble tile was used on the shower walls and floor wall base and ceramic gray penny tile on the floor. Shower includes curbless pan / floor, dual shower boxes, frameless glass slider, trough duel fixture sink and chrome fixtures.

This image performs an act of deliberate spatial framing: we are positioned as intruders in a threshold, the photograph's foreground bracketed by two monumental slabs of mahogany-toned door leaf and jamb that compress the visual field into a portal roughly one-third the width of the frame. The composition is therefore a study in *enfilade* logic — a controlled, telescoping sightline that draws the eye through a narrow aperture into a recessed alcove, a purpose-built writing niche carved from what appears to be a corridor or dressing-room vestibule. The niche itself is architecturally modest in footprint but generous in vertical proportion; the ceiling reads as a plain plastered plane, unadorned save for a surface-mounted linear picture light on a slender drop stem, and the wall is treated as a full-height field for a single dominant object. The joinery is the true architecture here: a continuous run of casework establishes a horizontal datum at desk height, with a cantilevered writing surface returning perpendicular to the left-hand wall and a lower bank of drawers and a shallow ledge running right. That ledge functions as a *cimaise* or picture shelf, resolving the base of the framed nautical chart and giving the composition a plinth. Above, an integrated soffit or upper cabinet with concealed under-lighting terminates the left elevation, reinforcing the sense of an inhabited, tailored recess rather than a room. The herringbone parquet in the foreground introduces a diagonal geometry that runs counter to the orthogonal grid of doors, casework and picture frame, and this friction — chevron against rectilinear — animates what would otherwise be a static, axial composition. The single chair, canted slightly off-axis and pulled away from the desk, is the compositional pivot: it breaks the symmetry, occupies the exact center of the aperture, and converts an architectural vignette into a narrative one.
The palette is a disciplined exercise in the warm end of the spectrum, essentially monochromatic in hue and differentiated almost entirely by value, sheen and grain. The dominant material is timber, deployed in at least three distinct registers: the foreground door and jamb in a deeply saturated, red-brown mahogany or sapele with a high-build lacquer or French-polish sheen that catches light in long vertical highlights; the desk and casework in a lighter, honeyed figured wood — quartered cherry or anigre — finished to a satin rather than gloss, so that the eye reads it as a working surface rather than a ceremonial one; and finally the pale, blond oak of the herringbone floor, cerused or naturally oxidized to a straw tonality that lifts the lower register of the frame. Against this timber triad, the walls provide a chalky, low-saturation ground: a limewashed or flat-emulsion cream with a distinctly yellow-warm undertone that absorbs rather than reflects. The upholstery is the room's chromatic keynote — a saddle-tan or cognac leather, semi-aniline, already developing patina and slight slouch at the seat, its edge articulated by a close-set brass or antique-nickel nailhead trim that reads as a stitched seam of tiny metallic points. Metals are used sparingly and with historical precision: the polished chrome rosette and knob of the door with its heavy escutcheon and mortise strike plate, the slim brushed housing of the picture light. Texturally, the room stages a dialogue between the hard, reflective and the soft, absorbent: lacquer against limewash, taut leather against the friable, foxed paper of the antique chart. That chart — a hydrographic survey rendered in ochre, sepia and faded aqua, its ebonized frame supplying the composition's only true black — is the material anchor, its aged paper introducing a granular, time-worn texture that no new surface in the room could supply. The terrier, coincidentally or not, participates in this material scheme: a wiry tan-and-black coat that reads as a textile in its own right, tonally identical to the leather beneath it.
The lighting design is layered, warm-Kelvin and almost entirely artificial in its narrative effect, though the scene depends on a critical unseen source. A shaft of low, raking daylight enters from the right — presumably a window outside the frame — and lands as a hard-edged parallelogram across the parquet and the chair's front rail, creating the image's strongest contrast and lending the floor a sense of temporal specificity: late afternoon, low sun. Against this, three artificial layers operate. The surface-mounted picture light washes the nautical chart in an even, slightly amber flood, functioning as accent lighting that establishes the chart as the room's hierarchical focus. Concealed strip lighting beneath the upper casework grazes the left-hand desk return, providing task illumination and articulating the millwork's shadow line. Ambient fill is minimal and deliberately so; the corners of the niche fall into soft, unresolved shadow, and the whole tableau is rendered in a narrow tonal band of amber and umber that suppresses cool light almost entirely. The resulting atmosphere is one of burnished interiority — hushed, crepuscular, protective. Stylistically, the room resists easy categorization but sits most comfortably within a contemporary *Warm Traditionalism* or refined **Anglo-American Modern Classic** idiom: the vocabulary is unmistakably tailored-traditional (nailhead-trimmed leather, mortise hardware, framed cartography, a Deco-inflected barrel-back desk chair), yet the detailing is stripped of ornament — no cornice, no panel molding, no applied millwork profile — and the casework is resolved with the flush, planar minimalism of a mid-century yacht interior. It is, in essence, a *cabinet de travail* reimagined through the discipline of modern joinery: a room that borrows the emotional register of the club library while adopting the reductive geometry of contemporary architecture. The dog, unhurried and centrally enthroned, is the final aesthetic argument — evidence that the space is not a set piece but a lived, occupied, and evidently affectionate interior.
