Our McLean customers wanted to update their home before putting it on the real estate market - they knew one of the key factors was the remodeling of the three bathrooms. All were in desperate need of a design re-do. Despite the small square footage that limited the bathroom sizes, our design team worked carefully to use the space they did have efficiently and to great effect. The use of tile draws the eye to the floor nd walls, and the color choices are minimal but bold. In addition to the bathroom updates, the lower level of the home received all new flooring and, our customer's dream, a sliding barn door to hide away the laundry room area. Heading into a competitive marketplace, this home will be a gem for the next owners.

Our goal was to integrate an existing sink base cabinet and counter in a new construction laundry room with a highly functional storage system maximizing the laundry sorting and drying opportunities. Layer in a sensational color palette for big FUN factor! Five drying rack drawers allow the homeowner flexibility to air dry everything from sweaters to delicates. Three laundry basket rollouts in the tall cabinet create convenient clothes sorting. Sherwin Williams revel blue was selected to add a punch of color and coordinate with the star in the room, Mitchell Black Nomad collection wallcovering. This laundry room is big on function and personality. The room’s design successfully elevates a necessary household chore to a task that is a joy to complete!

This boutique loft is located in the heart of the St. Lawrence Market District in downtown Toronto. There are only 12 units in the entire building which makes it a hot commodity! When we went to meet the clients for our initial consultation we were immediately struck by the 11' 6" high ceilings and the 10 x 25ft windows. This unit had plenty of original charm i.e. exposed ductwork, exposed electrical conduits and junction boxes but it lacked in the finishings and decor department. The Hope Designs Team was hired to stage the loft and bring in the "wow factor". Utilizing the some of the clients existing furnishings in combination with Hope Designs furniture, art, decor and accessories we able to transform the space.

Cosmic Black granite is shown in this project! Search the specific granite name, see more granite or other stone options: http://www.stoneaction.com Learn more about granite to see if it’s right for you: Granite countertops can last a lifetime. It contains no harmful chemicals and do not emit harmful radiation or gasses. Granite is heat resistant and is one of the most heat-resistant countertops on the market. You can place a hot pan out of the oven directly onto the countertop surface. Experts do recommend the use of a trivet when using appliances that emit heat for long periods of time, such as crockpots. Since the material is so dense, there is a small possibility heating one area of the top and not the entire thing, could cause the countertop to crack. Granite is scratch resistant. You can cut on it, but it will dull your knives! Granite scores a seven on Moh’s hardness scale. Granite countertops are considered to be a low maintenance countertop surface. The likelihood of needing to be repaired or resurfaced is low. Granite is a porous material. Most fabricators will apply a sealer to granite countertops before they are installed which will protect them from absorbing liquids too quickly. Many sealers last more than 10 years before needing to be reapplied. When they do need to be reapplied, it is something that most homeowners can do on their own as the process is similar to cleaning. Darker granites are very dense and sometimes don’t even require a sealer. When it comes to pricing, there are a lot of variables such as edge profile, total square footage, backsplash, etc. Don’t be fooled by the stereotype that all granite is expensive. Lower-range granites will cost less than high-range laminate. Though granite countertops are not considered “low range” in pricing, there are a lot of affordable options. If you are looking for something truly unique, consider an exotic granite. Some quarries are not easily accessible and/or only able to be quarried for short periods of time throughout the year. If these circumstances exist in a quarry with gorgeous stone, the price will be driven upward You won’t find a lot of solid patterns or bright colors, but both do exist. Also, watch for a large range of color and pattern within the same color of stone. It’s always a good idea to view the exact slab(s) that will be fabricated for your kitchen to make sure they are what you expected to see from the sample. Another factor is that many exotic types of granite have huge flowing waves, and a small sample will not be an accurate representation of the whole slab. Granite countertops are very resistant to chemicals. Acids and bases will not harm the material.

Inspiration for a mediterranean home design remodel in Kansas City

We transformed this kitchen from blah to wow! The detailed Spanish tile wall behind the bar shelves really grabs your attention and increases the unique factor. We custom designed this floating shelf system to allow for the overhead lights to shine down on the displayed items. A great eye-catching piece for when guests are over.
