This is the way to grandma's kitchen, down the stairs, past the bookcase and yellow sofa and through the curtains. Every day, all day, this area sees passers by, young and old. That's why it was important that we make it beautiful.

To add architectural interest to this luxury bath remodel, the vanity mirrors were finished with a custom architrave detail that distinguishes them from the door casings while creating a more tailored, built-in look. Mirror-mounted sconces amplify the vanity lighting and add a refined glow, while mirrored switch plates blend seamlessly into the reflective surface for a clean, uninterrupted design. A pocket door connects the bathroom to the primary closet, supporting a more functional and elegant primary suite layout.

To enhance the airy feel of this luxury bathroom renovation, full-width custom framed mirrors were installed above the vanities and designed to replicate the door and window casing for a cohesive architectural detail. The wall-mounted sconces reflect beautifully in the mirrors, amplifying the vanity lighting, increasing overall brightness, and adding a refined spa-like glow to the bathroom design.

The bespoke upholstered bench serves as a striking design centerpiece, with its bold color palette and sophisticated patterned fabric bringing together every hue used throughout the great room.

Combining exceptional craftsmanship with vibrant textile design, the bench exemplifies the curated elegance and personalized luxury that define a thoughtfully designed interior.
