Search results for "Space hogging" in Home Design Ideas

Sometimes the shape and size of a space is great but the details inside seem wrong. That was what my clients thought about their primary bathroom in their newly purchased mountain home. As only the second owners of this large house built in the early 90s, they were eager to be rid of an array of artifacts from that period: a wall of glass bricks at the shower; a huge Jacuzzi tub and deck; and an odd, unnecessary run of shelving about a foot down from the ceiling line. These clients spent many years living on the east coast and brought with them a wonderful classical sense for their interiors—so I created a space that would give them that feeling of Classicism while simultaneously feeling fresh and current.
To start we chose a cooler color palette for the entire space. Tiles that look like Statuario marble are set off by a white and blue marble Arabesque mosaic medallion in the center of the room.
Once the space-hogging Jacuzzi tub was removed, I was able to fit larger, dueling vanities in a lovely French green (a grey with a slight, cool olive tone). These furniture-style units feature a breakfront sink base flanked by fluted columns topped with rosettes. A sculptural, contemporary tub now sits in the alcove looking out over the lush hillside.
The Neo-Classicism of the Georgian aesthetic inspired my choices for light fixtures. The central chandelier and vanity sconces feature glass finials and simplified flourishes.
We removed the glass bricks and rebuilt the entire shower to accommodate a linear drain, making it a true zero-clearance shower without a curb. My clients are now able to waltz into the shower without navigating oddly placed walls and an unusually high step into the pan.
Even the adjacent make-up vanity got a make-over—and a beverage refrigerator concealed by a panel of the same French green--to blend with the new, lighter style of the space. Finally, I designed custom Roman shades in a stunning embroidered material of cream and aqua to complete the room. The high style of the space references the past while reveling in a current moment of comfort and convenience.

Moving the sink and extending the cabinetry enabled a more efficient and spacious countertop layout. We replaced a space-hogging water cooler with a convenient filter faucet (the smaller faucet on the right).

In this project, the use of integrated appliances adds to the visual and versatility of the kitchen. Double-drawer dishwasher eliminates energy-wasting half loads. Bonus: when entertaining, fill top draw with ice… presto, an insulated cooler that’s emptied by simply closing and hitting the “Drain” button. Space-hogging, side-by-side fridge replaced with taller, integrated unit more suitably proportioned to the space and client’s active, social lifestyle.

Elegance in minimalism with dramatic, often surprising, pops of pure bling give this master suite a luxurious ambiance reminiscent of the world’s great hotels.
Rather than space-hogging table-lamps, matched seven-light statement cascading pendant chandeliers with matte-gold finish chuting from the ceiling on either side of the bed.

What was once a space-hogging walk-in pantry is now a functional space including double wall ovens and a warming drawer, and a hidden beverage center. Well-thought-out cabinetry provides as much storage as the walk-in pantry did in a fraction of the space, leaving more room to work in the kitchen.

The owner of this home contacted us near the end of the year in 2017 to create a wall to match the one we had done in the spring. Naturally we were excited to continue our wall from one property to the next. This wall features split faced limestone walling stone with custom precast limestone caps and pillars. It also has automatic gates, integrated lighting and integrated electrical outlets. it will soon feature metal feature work and detailed plantings.
