GMI Design GroupIn this primary bathroom, the lighting scheme was key to achieve the client’s goals and create a space where the client would enjoy being. The bathroom felt cramped, dark, visually heavy. The client was also claustrophobic, making the use of the space uncomfortable.
The goal was to transform this space into a relaxed modern spa-like atmosphere, rethink and simplify the floorplan avoiding visual clutter, access natural light, add efficient lighting, and create more visual space.
The lighting plan was crucial to increase visual space. My first thought was to add a skylight to access natural light that is so effective in enlarging the feel of a space.
After looking at the attic and roof lines it became clear that this was not an option. After some research I found the perfect solution: a smart light fixture that mimics a window. It is installed between studs or ceiling joists. The fixture replicates the light of the sun during the day. It goes from soft morning light - to bright noon - to soft dawn light. By recessing the fixture into the ceiling, the skylight-look and extra height was achieved.
The benefits of this light go beyond beautiful design. The fixture is sustainable, energy efficient, and made to last for decades. It regulates the body’s circadian rhythm, helping against sleeping problems and seasonal affective disorder. It also integrates biophilic design, creating connections to nature and benefiting people that spend hours indoors.
The use of mood lighting was also key, creating a cozy, welcoming feel to this home-spa. All the lights are dimmable, and plenty of indirect light sources, like the gorgeous vanity pendants and LED mirrors, create the perfect setting. Not forgetting to mention the soft curves of the bathtub chandelier. This is the perfect place to relax in the bubbly bathtub!

3SI DesignThis powder bathroom is a bold, high-impact space that proves small rooms can carry big personality. The custom abstract wallpaper sets the tone immediately — an organic, hand-drawn pattern in deep charcoal sweeps across crisp white walls, creating movement and visual interest without overwhelming the space.
The black and brass accents layer in warmth and sophistication. A matte black oval mirror softens the strong linear pattern of the wallpaper, while the brass faucet and hardware introduce a refined contrast that feels intentional and elevated. The modern black-and-white sconce adds a sculptural moment above the mirror, tying the palette together seamlessly.
The vanity keeps the look grounded with its dark finish and clean lines, balanced by a bright quartz countertop that keeps the room feeling fresh and airy. Minimal styling — amber glass soap bottles, a simple framed black-and-white print, and a sleek black toilet paper holder — allows the design elements to breathe without clutter.
Overall, the space feels modern, curated, and slightly dramatic — the perfect statement powder bath that leaves a lasting impression on guests while still feeling timeless and polished.

DavannaTransitional Kitchen with Bellmont White Cabinets, Grey Island.
This beautifully designed kitchen combines modern functionality with a warm, inviting aesthetic. We used Bellmont Cabinetry in a crisp white finish for the perimeter, paired with a soft grey island that adds contrast and depth to the space. The two-tone cabinetry creates visual interest while maintaining a timeless appeal.
Brass hardware adds a layer of sophistication and ties in seamlessly with the brass pendant lighting above the island. For added personality and practicality, we integrated natural-stained open shelving—perfect for displaying decor or everyday essentials.
Storage was a key priority in this design. The kitchen includes oversized drawers with elongated brass pulls for easy access, and a cleverly designed sliding appliance garage that keeps countertop appliances tucked away and the workspace clutter-free.
This kitchen showcases the perfect balance of style and function, blending Bellmont’s high-quality cabinetry with thoughtful design elements tailored for everyday living.

Tate EnterprisesThis home’s small kitchen desperately needed mud room storage, as the detached garage is outside the back door. The design was carefully planned along with all storage needs and we were able to add a wide, double door cabinet closet by the back door. The upper area holds coats and clutter. The lower doors have hooks and boot trays for backpacks and shoes. Paneling the Subzero fridge and the dishwasher not only conceals these appliances but also helps with softening the weight. A few details on the kitchen including the skirt on the toe, the clean lines on the wood hood and the posts on the island make this kitchen a special place for this family of four!
Moore House DesignA country club respite for our busy professional Bostonian clients. Our clients met in college and have been weekending at the Aquidneck Club every summer for the past 20+ years. The condos within the original clubhouse seldom come up for sale and gather a loyalist following. Our clients jumped at the chance to be a part of the club's history for the next generation. Much of the club’s exteriors reflect a quintessential New England shingle style architecture. The internals had succumbed to dated late 90s and early 2000s renovations of inexpensive materials void of craftsmanship. Our client’s aesthetic balances on the scales of hyper minimalism, clean surfaces, and void of visual clutter. Our palette of color, materiality & textures kept to this notion while generating movement through vintage lighting, comfortable upholstery, and Unique Forms of Art.

Rebecca Quandt InteriorsMaximizing storage was a top priority for this couple. A countertop to ceiling wall cabinet was custom built for maximum storage for a couple who values clean countertops. Electrical access was provided inside for electric toothbrushes and an electric razor. Modern glass medicine cabinets add additional storage and functionality that also visually enlarges the vanity area.
