Lined, pleated valances over sliding glass doors fill unused space and add warmth to the room. The pattern is matched on the pleats and in between to create depth.

Accommodated unique challenge to design exceptional, gracious, shaped and layered window treatments of the large bay, while concealing the headrails of new motorized shades, screening the day's bright light, yet preserving the magnificent views and honoring the beauty of the fanlight windows. Two colorways of the same pattern complement the wall's interesting color changes.

Serene, peaceful, calm and relaxing are the words that come to mind in this master bedroom suite. In a master bedroom like this, you can't wait to come home and retreat to your personal spa bedroom to escape from the rest of the world. One wall is covered with beautiful pinch-pleated drapery panels with attached pinch-pleated sculpted valances, trimmed in elegant fringe. By covering the entire wall with drapery panels the windows appear to cover the entire wall when the draperies are open. The room is adorned with regal tall bedside lamps, perfect for relaxing in bed and reading a good book. The graceful lines of the bedroom are further enhanced by the grandeur of the walnut-stained sleigh-bed. A soft and comfy reading chair and floor lamp are so inviting.

A collaborative project with an Annapolis architect firm, the design team came to us with two main priorities for this project: first, preserve their majestic waterfront views and second, create comfortable rooms to entertain their family and guests. Soft, ethereal draperies anchor the picturesque bay window in the master bedroom. Motorized traversing panels in the second floor bedrooms stack off the windows to expose the scenic waterfront, and when closed, darken the rooms for peaceful sleeping. A stage coach valance in a casual stripe pattern, complete with nautical rope ties, provides a fun finish to the well appointed grandchild’s room. Familiar family heirloom furniture pieces were updated and upholstered with welcoming fabrics. Seat cushions and pillows for the rotunda’s custom bench create a cozy place to sit, relax and read a book.

Furniture style is rich. Arch top Armoire in French style with raised panel doors. Decorative frame of mirror over triple dresser adds variety and interest. Outline Quilting on king size pillow shams. Large square quilt pattern on coverlet. Country French bedroom. Heavily carved Kingsize Bed with Headboard and Footboard. Custom fabric selection for window treatments, coverlet, throw pillows and chair. Charles Faudre fabrics.

This kitchen went from dated 1990's cherry cabinets, to updated and dramatic with an open concept, crisp white cabinets, textured herringbone backsplash, and warm gold accents. By removing a wall that separated the kitchen to the old dining room, this space almost double in size! The contrast of the black island, pendants, and dining furniture adds a modern flair, while the custom valances adds softness to the whole space.

This beautiful kitchen is a complete transformation from what the clients had before The new white shaker style cabinets and beveled, taupe, subway tile back splash, go wonderfully with the contrasting black granite counter tops. I added a gorgeous geometric roman valance to add a little pattern.The vinyle floors were the perfect solution for this contemporary kitchen, the subtle pattern gives the impression the room is larger than it is.

Blues are trending this year, but blue is also a traditional color for the bedroom. Mixing your patterns gives visual interest and a lot of style.
