This client needed to update their historic East Coast-style home to match their modern lifestyle without sacrificing its beauty and elegance. Moore Design Group enhanced the original design with a reconfigured layout, horizontal and vertical design elements, and careful attention to detail. We blended original architectural features with the convenience of contemporary appliances, custom cabinetry, finishes, fixtures, and lighting. The kitchen was a client priority; we centered the room around a grand island with an eat-at bar that inspires shared meals and conversations. Walls were eliminated to open up the space. Custom cabinetry and granite slab countertops were installed, and the wood floors were refinished. For a final touch, the owner created architectural ceiling moldings that reflect the adjacent dining and living rooms. We reclaimed obsolete space to create a primary ensuite. A steam shower, claw-foot tub, and traditional double basin vanity transformed the bathroom into a bespoke sanctuary. Our discovery of a fabulous gray, blue and beige marble for wainscoting and countertops launched the lovely, soft palette. An added touch of luxury: a dressing table and wardrobes line the adjacent bedroom
