The shower ceiling was arched to prevent the steam condensation from dripping on the homeowners while they showered. The shower walls, floor, ceiling, and tub surround were covered with various size natural stone in an earth tone. The shower ceiling was tiled with 2" mosaic tiles, the tub desk and shower walls were covered with a 12" square tile. One 6" recessed light was added to the shower's arched ceiling as well. The 3/8" heavy glass in-line panel, 74" door and buttress panel shower door included a pivoting transom at the top to allow for the dissipation of steam to the exhaust fan placed nearby. Brushed nickel panel hinges and pulls were selected for architectural detail and consistency. One of the homeowner's goals for this remodel project was to eliminate the dark and boxy feel of the bathroom. By removing the shower wall, installing the new 90 degree glass surround to the tub deck, the space was opened and the natural light from the existing windows was allowed into the shower area accomplishing their goal.

The large Family Room is planned as a lounge space with a u shaped sectional, cocktail ottoman and open view of the rear lanai and pool. The clean low lines of the sectional prevent the furniture from obstructing the view within this open space plan. A Breakfast Table in the rear corner doubles as a work space or gaming table effortlessly.

These clients hired us to renovate their long and narrow bathroom with a dysfunctional design. Along with creating a more functional layout, our clients wanted a walk-in shower, a separate bathtub, and a double vanity. Already working with tight space, we got creative and were able to widen the bathroom by 30 inches. This additional space allowed us to install a wet area, rather than a small, separate shower, which works perfectly to prevent the rest of the bathroom from getting soaked when their youngest child plays and splashes in the bath. Our clients wanted an industrial-contemporary style, with clean lines and refreshing colors. To ensure the bathroom was cohesive with the rest of their home (a timber frame mountain-inspired home located in northern New Hampshire), we decided to mix a few complementary elements to get the look of their dreams. The shower and bathtub boast industrial-inspired oil-rubbed bronze hardware, and the light contemporary ceramic garden seat brightens up the space while providing the perfect place to sit during bath time. We chose river rock tile for the wet area, which seamlessly contrasts against the rustic wood-like tile. And finally, we merged both rustic and industrial-contemporary looks through the vanity using rustic cabinets and mirror frames as well as “industrial” Edison bulb lighting.

The renovation of a mid century cottage on the lake, now serves as a guest house. The renovation preserved the original architectural elements such as the ceiling and original stone fireplace to preserve the character, personality and history and provide the inspiration and canvas to which everything else would be added. To prevent the space from feeling dark & too rustic, the lines were kept clean, the furnishings modern and the use of saturated color was strategically placed throughout.

Design ideas for a southwestern landscaping in Phoenix.

My clients had outgrown their builder’s basic home and had plenty of room to expand on their 10 acres. Working with a local architect and a talented contractor, we designed an addition to create 3 new bedrooms, a bathroom scaled for all 3 girls, a playroom and a master retreat including 3 fireplaces, sauna, steam shower, office or “creative room”, and large bedroom with folding glass wall to capitalize on their view. The master suite, gym, pool and tennis courts are still under construction, but the girls’ suite and living room space are complete and dust free. Each child’s room was designed around their preference of color scheme and each girl has a unique feature that makes their room truly their own. The oldest daughter has a secret passage hidden behind what looks like built in cabinetry. The youngest daughter wanted to “swing”, so we outfitted her with a hanging bed set in front of a custom mural created by a Spanish artist. The middle daughter is an elite gymnast, so we added monkey bars so she can cruise her room in style. The girls’ bathroom suite has 3 identical “stations” with abundant storage. Cabinetry in black walnut and peacock blue and white quartz counters with white marble backsplash are durable and beautiful. Two shower stalls, designed with a colorful and intricate tile design, prevent bathroom wait times and a custom wall mural brings a little of the outdoors in.
