The owners of this waterfront property were in search of an estate that would afford retirement in style. They envisioned Sunday family dinners, pool parties for their grandchildren, and philanthropic galas with one hundred guests. Our charge was to design a residence that could support events of a grand scale without losing the intimacy of their home. Taking our inspiration from the shingle-style homes on Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cape Cod, we developed a layout that responds to the 270-degree water views and the mountains beyond.

Fully custom backyard, a beautiful design done together with the homeowners and then brought to life by Royal Family Construction Team. As shown here, we did solar as well to maximize energy efficiency for the property.

Kitchens in Parisian apartments are typically compact and functional, designed to maximize the use of space in a city where living quarters can be quite small. Many Parisian kitchens feature classic elements of French design, such as white or light-colored cabinetry, decorative moldings, and tiled floors. Appliances in Parisian kitchens are often smaller than those found in larger homes, but still offer high-quality performance. Built-in ovens and cooktops are common, along with small refrigerators and dishwashers that fit seamlessly into the overall design of the kitchen. One of the most important features of a Parisian kitchen is the presence of a small dining table or breakfast nook. Parisians love to enjoy their meals in the comfort of their own homes, and having a cozy place to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee or a leisurely breakfast is a must. Despite their smaller size, Parisian kitchens are typically well-equipped and designed to meet the needs of modern cooking. From classic French recipes to international cuisine, a well-appointed Parisian kitchen is the perfect place to whip up a delicious meal at home.

Though the rest of the home has red and black accents, we opted for an understated color palette, quiet pattterns and tasteful finishes for the master bathroom. Our clients wanted a relaxing oasis overlooking the wooded property. The TV mounted above the tub is an inducement to long, leisurely soaks beneath a bubble-like chandelier.

This is an example of a large transitional full sun backyard concrete paver and vinyl fence landscaping in Dallas.
