Trophy Club Rustic Glam, to us, concerned achieving the modern look they wanted for their home that was traditional in nature with heavy rustic features. With a few pieces already in place including a contemporary curved sofa and metallic silver breakfast nook table, we used that starting point to begin interjecting the right amount of modern touches that would balance the rustic and reach the wow factor end result desired. One important change was updating the light fixtures with bold statements that transition the new look throughout. Luxurious window treatments also aided in calming down the rustic woods. We especially enjoyed a unique room project; The bonus wine room attached to the Kitchen was always a challenge for the homeowners to find the right functionality. The new high top bar and low profile stools, along with a customized wine barrel-top table and "corkscrew" bar stools made for the perfect layout to entertain. Metallic wallpaper on the walls and zebra-print on the ceiling contrasted against the thick stone. These features as well as the custom wine racks and grapevine-esque crystal light fixture created a cozy and exciting place to lounge in their very own wine country. We just loved the end result and the homeowners couldn't believe the big reveal transformation.

When our clients purchased this condo it was ready for a re-do. All the dark oak cabinets and trim had to go! We gutted the walls in the kitchen to open up the view of the lake. The whimsical colors and details of this remodeled condo in Mariners Cove, Madison Wisconsin fit our clients perfectly. Lake living was the top order at this condo so our nod to nautical was a fun touch. We added a coffered ceiling with a bead board and beamed look to really give this kitchen the wow factor. We removed all the old walnut stained oak trim in the condo and replaced it with a painted white package, all new flooring, lighting, fresh wall color and we even updated the old spindle staircase with open cable wire which really gave this condo a new look. Welcome to the lake!

There's undeniable magic when light meets crystal or glass. It sparks the same fire one sees when light meets precious and semi-precious stones. Great lighting often takes styling cues from jewelry as well, with its primary use of gold and silver tones. Just like an outfit isn't complete without the perfect necklace, bracelet or earrings, a room isn't complete until it has lighting that adds the WOW factor when you walk in.

An interior design refresh was exactly what this Toronto home needed! We wanted this client’s living room to have an updated look with some major wow-factor and increased function! Our interior design worked around the beautiful abstract art by pulling out those blue & gold tones in the pillows, accent chairs, and shelving display. Nesting tables are a great use of space and perfect when entertaining to extend the table out when you need it. Newly installed floating shelves also offer a stylish solution for display that doesn’t take up too much space and accommodates great use for a book display.

A modern and playful space that's all grown up, for a Dallas-area townhouse dweller. The Pulp Design Studios team gave this client's townhouse a refresh that's bright and vibrant with unexpected touches and a 'wow' factor. Pulp designers reimagined this space, while reusing many of the client's existing furnishings and bringing in thoughtful new pieces. The result is a vibrant and exciting open space that's perfect for entertaining and a Master Bedroom retreat that's stylishly relaxing

The Inverness Bathroom remodel had these goals: to complete the work while allowing the owner to continue to use their workshop below the project's construction, to provide a high-end quality product that was low-maintenance to the owners, to allow for future accessibility, more natural light and to better meet the daily needs of both the husband's and wife's lifestyles. The first challenge was providing the required structural support to continue to clear span the two cargarage below which housed a workshop. The sheetrock removal, framing and sheetrock repairs and painting were completed first so the owner could continue to use his workshop, as requested. The HVAC supply line was originally an 8" duct that barely fit in the roof triangle between the ridge pole and ceiling. In order to provide the required air flow to additional supply vents in ceiling, a triangular duct was fabricated allowing us to use every square inch of available space. Since every exterior wall in the space adjoined a sloped ceiling, we installed ventilation baffles between each rafter and installed spray foam insulation.This project more than doubled the square footage of usable space. The new area houses a spaciousshower, large bathtub and dressing area. The addition of a window provides natural light. Instead of a small double vanity, they now have a his-and-hers vanity area. We wanted to provide a practical and comfortable space for the wife to get ready for her day and were able to incorporate a sit down make up station for her. The honed white marble looking tile is not only low maintenance but creates a clean bright spa appearance. The custom color vanities and built in linen press provide the perfect contrast of boldness to create the WOW factor. The sloped ceilings allowed us to maximize the amount of usable space plus provided the opportunity for the built in linen press with drawers at the bottom for additional storage. We were also able to combine two closets and add built in shelves for her. This created a dream space for our client that craved organization and functionality. A separate closet on opposite side of entrance provided suitable and comfortable closet space for him. In the end, these clients now have a large, bright and inviting master bath that will allow for complete accessibility in the future.

We love how light and open white can make a kitchen feel, but here, I love the contrast of the black countertops, accented perfectly with the marble island top. Warm wood floors add texture, new LED lighting and glass pendants make a welcoming, open-concept kitchen nice and bright. Moving walls allowed up to put in a nice long island for a family of four to eat at, cook, and easily entertain. This kitchen has a mega ‘cool’ factor - the space under the stairs, was a pantry before we remodeled, but now it’s a larger pantry, and it’s built to look just like the rest of the kitchen cabinetry

This window treatmet design consist of swags in a red crinkled faux silk, banded in a similar gold fabric. The Swags and panels are constructed and stapled to three wooden decorative rods. This treatment is over 130" high and 160' wide. Because our shop only has an 8' ceiling, the treatment had to be constructed in sections. The layout was done half at a time, due to the width. After working out the design with a string, the treatment was constructed in three sections-two sides and a middle. Each swag and panel were cut and sewn complete, then stapled starting with the center section and then the sides. the three sections and the raised portion of the swag were attached onsite. After the treatment was installed, we dressed it by skirting out the side panels to show off the banding and trim on the mitered corners. The end result is a stunning window treatment which frames the view of a small lake. This custom design was developed considering that the client wanted an over swag in a red tone and an under swag in a light sheer fabric. The client also wanted the sheer fabric to cover the top arched window but allow some of the trim to show in the corners of the arch. Our client loved shiny fabric and trims and wanted the "wow" factor. Since the home was a couple of hours from our business, we worked a lot by phone and fax. During the design phase we took large sheets of clear plastic, on which We had drawn our template, and hung it over pieces of ceiling tile attached to our wall. We then overlaid more plastic, on which we strung our design and then drew out the lines with marker. We took a picture, printed it in black and white and faxed it to the client. She faxed it back with changes, and so on, until, we had perfected the design. With this method, we viewed the design in parts and were not able to see it complete until it was installed.

We worked alongside ACG Architects and accessible kitchen design specialist, Adam Thomas to create this stunning wheelchair-accessible kitchen so our client could prepare, cook and serve meals for her family independently. We designed this kitchen to have three different heights to enable our client and family to prepare and cook food easily. For example, the accessible worktop with a custom-made sink was made to be 870mm - the perfect height for a wheelchair user. Other key features in this design include wheelchair level ovens with tray slides that sit directly under two Neff Slide & Glide ovens, a Neff Steamer and a Microwave, so hot oven trays can be moved easily across each tray slide. A pull-out shelf allows for food/trays to be moved easily to the worktop level that was designed to be lower than standard for wheel-chair use. In front of the hob, there is also a protective lip at the edge of the worktop to stop a pan from boiling over onto the floor, or onto the client's lap. A stone sink was also custom made by Cosentino, so it wasn’t too deep for our client to reach into. The architects included wood slatting across the entire ground floor that creating a stunning feature in the kitchen space. Each slat was designed to run with precision over the door units - there were also toasters and pull-out drawers hidden behind this area which were designed to be isolated from the power when the doors were closed. Mixing different materials and textures in a kitchen space created interest and contrast. The striking mix of the stained wood slatting, Graphite Grey cabinetry and durable Dekton Keon worktops in this collaborative kitchen design creates a real wow factor. This kitchen design works for each family member with varying needs and heights so that it is a space that allows for the whole family to enjoy and create memories together.
