Our next stop in the blog series Updated Spec Home is my Mom and Sister’s Bedrooms. I have already featured their rooms in previous blogs here and here, but we did have to do some tweaks to fit the design into the new spaces. All of my mom’s furniture fit perfectly in the new room. We did add a rug positioned partially under the bed. It’s nice to have something nice underfoot when you get out of bed in the morning! Some highlights in her space are the green glass lamps in front of the bronze bird mirrors. This room is stylish – just like my mom! The bedroom in my sister’s previous home was much larger than this one so we had to pare down some of her furniture. Her large scale furniture fit the previous space but works just as well in this room. Some highlights in my sister’s room include the mirrored chest and large floor mirror as well as the vibrant artwork. She had to get new art because her interior designer used the artwork from her previous room in the Foyer! I love that we were able to use the designs from their previous bedrooms and make them feel fresh in their Updated Spec Home. Enjoy!

I was the Architect and helped coordinate with various sub-contractors. I also co-designed the project with various consultants including Interior and Landscape Design This project was a challenge with the complexities of the sloping lot and and tight budget relative to the area to satisfy its goal as a Spec House.
