This was an extremely challenging and detail oriented project. We were contracted to completely change the layout of the homeowner's master suite. This is no small feat in a 100 year old house. We moved the existing bathroom to a new location which allowed us to turn an auxiliary room into his closet and the old bathroom location into her closet. Both his closet and the master shower vestibule received gorgeous plaster dome ceilings. The master shower enclosure features fully custom starphire glass, a steam unit and marble slab and tile as far as the eye can see. We used a honed Gioia Venatino tile in a herringbone pattern on the floor and for the wainscoting throughout. The millwork in all closets and bathrooms is custom, done by CJS Millwork based in Norwalk, CT. Another project managed by Alexander Vellios resulted in another happy client!

Coved plaster ceilings are uncommon, and an important element in this historic home. An historic home, Circa 1912, had been in the same family for generations, the new owners had a big job to restore and refresh the grand, but run-down property. The kitchen is located in the back of the house, and is un-traditional, in that there are no wall cabinets and space is allocated for antiques and art.

Pineapple House designers removed the wall that blocked the view front door to the pool and waterway in the back yard. They were able to place the proper supports and define the foyer hall with paired wooden columns. Armillary Pendant lights in aged iron with frosted glass light the entry. Daniel Newcomb Photography
