Our Seattle studio designed this stunning 5,000+ square foot Snohomish home to make it comfortable and fun for a wonderful family of six. On the main level, our clients wanted a mudroom. So we removed an unused hall closet and converted the large full bathroom into a powder room. This allowed for a nice landing space off the garage entrance. We also decided to close off the formal dining room and convert it into a hidden butler's pantry. In the beautiful kitchen, we created a bright, airy, lively vibe with beautiful tones of blue, white, and wood. Elegant backsplash tiles, stunning lighting, and sleek countertops complete the lively atmosphere in this kitchen. On the second level, we created stunning bedrooms for each member of the family. In the primary bedroom, we used neutral grasscloth wallpaper that adds texture, warmth, and a bit of sophistication to the space creating a relaxing retreat for the couple. We used rustic wood shiplap and deep navy tones to define the boys' rooms, while soft pinks, peaches, and purples were used to make a pretty, idyllic little girls' room. In the basement, we added a large entertainment area with a show-stopping wet bar, a large plush sectional, and beautifully painted built-ins. We also managed to squeeze in an additional bedroom and a full bathroom to create the perfect retreat for overnight guests. For the decor, we blended in some farmhouse elements to feel connected to the beautiful Snohomish landscape. We achieved this by using a muted earth-tone color palette, warm wood tones, and modern elements. The home is reminiscent of its spectacular views – tones of blue in the kitchen, primary bathroom, boys' rooms, and basement; eucalyptus green in the kids' flex space; and accents of browns and rust throughout.

This open concept floor plan was created by removing a large l-shaped wall between the living room and kitchen. This living room features ample seating with two large sofas, one includes a sleeper for overnight guests, and three accent chairs, one with an ottoman and the other with a recliner. Perfect for hosting a large gathering. There's plenty of tables around no matter which seat you are in, including versatile two toned nesting tables. The tiled fireplace keeps the large space at a comfortable temperature during each season. The dark wood stained, hand planed, hardwood flooring boasts through the entire space, with an enormous neutral shag area rug for added comfort. Recessed lighting, side table lamps and a ceiling fan with light offers ample lighting for reading or watching tv on the corner cabinet. The piano is quaintly displayed between the living room and kitchen, in the space that used to be the original dining room. The entire space as been painted using a Sherwin Williams light green paint color.

The custom 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home combines country charm with modern elegance.

My Duobed arrived yesterday and I am exceptionally pleased! It is exactly what I expected and needed! I recently moved into a smaller house, and my guest rooms are smaller than my previous home. One of them doubles as an office, and this became the problem room....how to provide good, comfortably sleeping arrangements yet maintain the function of my office, Having slept on a few conventional sofa beds I know they are always uncomfortable. I searched for quite a while and finally found Duobed! I choose the blue King Sleeper which is a rich, warm color. They were easily set up, and are VERY comfortable. I just had my first overnight guest who reported that the bed is great! It is just the right amount of firmness for a great night’s sleep, and is also very comfortable chair. When I'm not expecting guests, I remove one ottoman and put it in the living room to add an extra seat, and leave the other 3 in the office as a great couch! I have all the bedding stored inside, which frees up so much closet space! Great feature for people with limited storage! Very versatile! In fact I’m thinking of buying an additional back cushion and support arm to turn one of the ottomans into a chair! Fantastic product! I would this product recommend to anyone! - Patty (Verified Customer)
