We had a several challenges to face with this project. Not only did we need to update a dated landscape to accommodate two seemingly different design tastes (modern & minimalistic vs natural english garden), we were tasked with improving the property’s drainage, improving the driveway access, reducing water usage and plant maintenance, and fixing a crumbling wall. To marry the two design tastes, we started with the more modern elements of metal planters and softened the landscape with mass plantings of ornamental grasses and native sedge. These grasses act as a turf replacement that do not need to be mowed and require less regular watering. On each side of the yard we constructed new cedar fences to provide updated and additional privacy. In addition, we poured a new concrete wall to replace the existing retaining wall and play off the new modern vibe.

My clients did not want a lot of lights in the ceiling. Here we installed the only two can lights to illuminate artwork on the finished mantle wall. We further addressed the lighting needs in the room by splitting the wall outlets. One half of the outlets are switched for floor lamps while the other half of the outlets are always live. We also installed light kits on the ceiling fans for general task lighting. Photo Credit: Marc Golub

The full height stone and glass mosaic behind the sinks serves as a great focal point to this contemporary room. The white marble paired with light greens and blues brings warmth and color into the space while maintaining its modern design. The espresso cabinets contrast with the surrounding grey tiles. the vertical lines are a modern and custom option that gives dimension to the space. The granite tub deck allows for easy maintenance and care by avoiding unnecessary grout lines. Wall sconces add to the warm feel of this space while offering superior practical task lighting.

These homeowners were anxiously ready to remodel their dated 80’s kitchen and reached out to Renovisions to handle the transformation. In this new undertaking we met to discuss plans to brighten the dark room with custom painted white inset cabinets, adding more functional storage, better task lighting and GE Monogram appliances, new hardwood flooring throughout and creating a better flow into the adjacent family room. In order to open up the space, Renovisions suggested creating an angle at the peninsula. Continuing with this approach we replaced the rear door with a new one-light door that swings out instead of in to accommodate new bar stools and a better flow of traffic in and out to the deck outside. Silestone’s quartz countertops in ‘Merope’ were the perfect choice adding a nice contrast yet truly durable and low maintenance. Creating a beautifully unique subway tile niche in linen color at cooktop area and backsplash added an elegant touch to the overall look and homeowners were thrilled with this refreshing look after the Renovision. Now their newly renovated kitchen is a showcase and nicely outfitted for family and friends.
