Living in perfect Harmony! Ironwood is a stunning example of what is created when you combine the industrial elements of metal with the beautiful natural characteristics of solid wood. The Ironwood Collection embodies the best of both.

Working on a girl's bedroom is always a dream. Our client spotted another little girl's room that we designed and wanted us to create a similar look in her own daughter's space. We adapted the look using more "gown up" furniture that Angel can enjoy well into her teenage years and beyond. Interior Design by Lori Steeves of Simply Home Decorating.

Think summertime in the Hamptons! With its exaggerated thick tops and options of either wire brushed or hand scraped finish, The Auburn Bay Dining Collection creates a Coastal meets Mountain feel with an overall relaxed vibe.

Our client desired a bespoke farmhouse kitchen and sought unique items to create this one of a kind farmhouse kitchen their family. We transformed this kitchen by changing the orientation, removed walls and opened up the exterior with a 3 panel stacking door. The oversized pendants are the subtle frame work for an artfully made metal hood cover. The statement hood which I discovered on one of my trips inspired the design and added flare and style to this home. Nothing is as it seems, the white cabinetry looks like shaker until you look closer it is beveled for a sophisticated finish upscale finish. The backsplash looks like subway until you look closer it is actually 3d concave tile that simply looks like it was formed around a wine bottle. We added the coffered ceiling and wood flooring to create this warm enhanced featured of the space. The custom cabinetry then was made to match the oak wood on the ceiling. The pedestal legs on the island enhance the characterizes for the cerused oak cabinetry. Fabulous clients make fabulous projects.

Boy meets Girl! We’ve created a more masculine, square leg and then softened it by adding a more feminine unique reveal detail. The Auburn Bay Bedroom Collection is all about balance.

Casita Hickory – The Monterey Hardwood Collection was designed with a historical, European influence making it simply savvy & perfect for today’s trends. This collection captures the beauty of nature, developed using tomorrow’s technology to create a new demand for random width planks.

Originally this side patio was simply a barren cement patch that was cold and uninviting (see the BEFORE picture). It has a basic stone and concrete patio floor, with concrete brick walls. There was some natural bamboo behind the wall, but otherwise no plants. The house sits down in to the property, and to get to the front door you have to descend a steep set of stairs. This patio area is one of the first things people see as they descend the stairs to the front door, so we wanted to make it as inviting and cozy as possible. Plus, with all the natural tree coverage, it's a perfect place during hot days to curl up with a book or glass of wine under the shade. Not wanting to spend money on a massive renovation, the goal was to create a cozy niche for both entertaining guests and personal relaxation, reminiscent of an India-meets-Bali exotic retreat. We created something that was organic and natural looking, in harmony with the relaxed environment of Laguna Beach. To keep it budget friendly - and better for the environment - we also opted for recycled and pre-owned items we found on Craiglist and eBay. I chose to first mask the barren concrete walls with an carved wood screen from India, to add depth and interest. I placed two large daybeds with heavily padded cushions in an “L” shape to entice people to curl up and sink in. Rather than opting for a regular square patio table, I found a one-of-a-kind custom oak tree slab table (a fantastic Craiglist find!) that added a beautiful organic feel. The Moroccan lamp I brought back from one of my trips to Marrakech, and it added the perfect personal touch, in addition to personal sacred objects such as an antique Kwan Yin statue (great eBay find), crystals, and shells found at the beach. Finally, various plants were added — including both a satsuma orange tree and grapefruit tree that add lovely bursts of color when in season. And makes for a great quick snack when lounging about!

Major renovation and addition to a 1980's colonial home creates a lakeside retreat that comfortably serves the evolving needs of a multi generational family.

We took advantage of the square shape of this small room by creating handsome custom pieces. A dramatic custom square rift oak table with book matched top and hand chiseled edge creates seating for eight and provides contrast in the sleek space. Channel tufted chairs were designed in line with the tailored look. The wenge built-in buffet with a honed black stone top creates continuity with the adjacent living room fireplace through the repetitious use of materials. Sparkling mica wall covering on the ceiling provides a little shimmer and the vintage glass rod chandelier delivers a shot of understated glamour.

A traditional coastal stage in a new build in Tampa. The entrance was staged simply and elegantly to add warmth and create a home anyone would be lucky to live in.

Tired of their outdated and chaotic master bath, this CT couple wanted to create a relaxing at-home spa with an enlarged steam shower, a soaking tub, and a soothing natural Zen aesthetic. With a clear vision of the inviting retreat these homeowners desired, design team Barry Miller & Rachel Peterson of Simply Baths, Inc. transformed the space.
