Peter Rymwid Photographer “This beautiful master bath had a great beginning but just needed some finishing touches.” First up the walls. To blend the grey, white and beige of the marble tiles, we chose a soft shimmering taupe grass cloth with a silver background from York. Next stop, soften the room with textiles: A beautiful wool and silk runner combines the tile colors and add my favorite color…Blue. Varying shades of blue, taupe and grey with stunning black accents add color and texture to the coolness of the marble. Slip off your shoes and see h ow good it feels on your feet. The windows have a simple Couture fabric valance trimmed with Mercury glass beads which sparkle in the sunlight. Crystal vases sit on custom faux finished pedestals which hold candles for a subtle ambience. A dark blue console holds towels and decorative accents. A luxurious brass accented bench invites you to sit and relax while filling the oversized tub, a true indulgence. On to the lighting: The fabulous shimmering pendant light is literally the crowning jewel of the space. Crystal beads and soft brass accents shimmer and shine when you turn on the lights. Silk painted shades adorn the sconces while a coordinating fixture lights the entry way. The final touches; the art. An oversized contemporary Giclée Tennessee Morning is like looking out a window onto a field of flowers with a perfect blue sky. Original photo art from Alyssa Peek Ditch Plans and Changing Seasons is an homage to my favorite place the beach. Above the blue console, 6 small silk screen on glass pieces titled People Watching are grouped together. Artist Cathy Coricone’s acrylic paintings complete the art in the room. Her original pieces Moon Drops, Warm Pool and Cool Pool provide a sense of serenity with soft soothing colors and brush strokes.

Jules Moore’s reimagined Pueblo-style home in Santa Fe brings in light from the surrounding desert and features eclectic décor from her travels around the world. The New Zealand-native immediately loved where the house was situated – perched on a canyon’s edge – when she initially saw the home. The house required a lot of work: it had been uninhabited for 10 years, and its small windows did little to brighten the space and emphasize the natural landscape. Marvin’s Ultimate collection offered the level of customization Moore needed for her exact vision of the home. Moore also installed the Marvin Skycove in the home’s primary suite. The Skycove created the perfect space for Moore to enjoy watching the sunset and a cozy space for her French bulldog Sake to indulge in generous sunlight. “Marvin was the only team that presented to me different options that were going to work for this home,” said Moore. “I wanted the picture windows, but I needed the classic element to match the colonial wood. I wanted awnings and these giant windows to pop out in my den and kitchen … they customized everything, exactly what I wanted.” MARVIN PRODUCTS USED: Marvin Ultimate Awning Narrow Frame Window Marvin Ultimate Casement Narrow Frame Window Marvin Ultimate Picture Narrow Frame Window Marvin Skycove Marvin Ultimate Inswing French Door Marvin ultimate Sliding Patio Door Designer: Jules Moore Builder: Tierra de Zia Contracting, LLC

This gorgeous one story modern farmhouse is one of our consistent BEST SELLERS. The Chelci is a customer-built, modified version of THD-8516 - The Walden. From its split bedrooms providing privacy for rest and all the way to the potential expansion of an additional 471 sq.ft. of bonus space above the garage, this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath 2,188 s.f. design couldn’t be more family friendly. Entering the casual foyer, the space is immediately airy with an almost 19 feet ceiling. The open concept space is full of natural light and the vaulted ceilings with wood beams emphasize the true “greatness” of the room. The gas fireplace provides quick cozyness. The covered porch serves as additional space for dining al fresco or enjoying family for a weekend of bbq and fellowship with its outdoor “kitchen.” The cook of the home will be thrilled with the huge walk-in pantry and the charming window over the kitchen sink will provide many memories of watching the kiddos play in the backyard. The split bedrooms are ideal for a family with children, especially the way this design provides even more buffering with the two hallways off the bedroom spaces. The right side of the home has both secondary bedrooms that share a compartmentalized jack-n-jill bathroom complete with a shower/tub combo. The right side of the home provides entrance from the 2 car garage directly into the “drop zone” of the home with a small built-in locker area, the powder bath, and the laundry room complete with a utility sink and built-ins for organization. The vaulted master retreat has a spa bathroom with a stand alone tub, large shower and dual vanities. The huge walk-in closet has a convenient pocket door as a second entrance to the laundry room.

Life changes. Kids move out. And they leave us with spaces that look a little tired... One of the most fun things that can happen (so I hear--I haven't experienced it yet), is to have your children want to come home and visit again WITH GRANDCHILDREN. Yay! This is exactly where my client had found herself…and she wanted to make the rooms that were now mostly empty and seldom-used, a warm, cozy & stylish guest suite to welcome her adult children home when they came to visit. We used an eclectic mix of furnishings and fabrics to outfit both of the old bedrooms, creating a lovely guest suite, complete with a sitting/tv room that my clients use for cozy movie watching nights even when they don't have guests. :) Photography by Laura Kicey

This Tudor style custom home design exudes a distinct touch of heritage and is now nestled within the heart of Town and Country, Missouri. The client wanted a modern open floor plan layout for their family with the ability to entertain formally and informally. They also appreciate privacy and wanted to enjoy views of the rear yard and pool from different vantage points from within the home. The shape of the house was designed to provide needed privacy for the family from neighboring homes, but also allows for an abundance of glass at the rear of the house; maintaining a connection between indoors and out. A combination of stone, brick and stucco completes the home’s exterior. The kitchen and great room were designed to create an open yet warm invitation with cathedral ceiling and exposed beams. The living room is bright and clean with a coffered ceiling and fireplace eloquently situated between dual arched entries. This alluring room also steps out onto a courtyard, connecting the pool deck and covered porch. The large covered porch has an eating area and lounge with TV to watch the game or to enjoy a relaxing fire from the outdoor fireplace. An outdoor bar / kitchen was placed at the far edge of the covered porch and provides a direct link to the pool and pool deck. The home’s dining room was designed with a stone fireplace, large recessed wall niche and crown molding detail to add a feeling of warmth and serenity. The master bedroom is a retreat from the main floor level and also has direct access to the pool and patio. A private study was also incorporated with a direct connection to the master bedroom suite. Each secondary bedroom is a suite with walk in closets and private bathrooms. Over the living room, we placed the kids play room / hang-out space with TV. The lower level has a 2500 bottle wine room, a guest bedroom suite, a bar / entertainment / game room area and an exercise room. Photography by Elizabeth Ann Photography.
