Bedroom - mid-sized transitional master dark wood floor bedroom idea with gray walls

The Laurel was a project that required a rigorous lesson in southern architectural vernacular. The site being located in the hot climate of the Carolina shoreline, the client was eager to capture cross breezes and utilize outdoor entertainment spaces. The home was designed with three covered porches, one partially covered courtyard, and one screened porch, all accessed by way of French doors and extra tall double-hung windows. The open main level floor plan centers on common livings spaces, while still leaving room for a luxurious master suite. The upstairs loft includes two individual bed and bath suites, providing ample room for guests. Native materials were used in construction, including a metal roof and local timber.

This urban townhouse took on new life when it was renovated for a couple relocating from New York City. The owner’s sophisticated taste, cultivated from world travels, paired with the character of the existing home and resulted in a fresh and colorful gem in the heart of the historic downtown. Extensive approvals from the local Historic District Commission preceded an addition on the rear of the time-honored building and a complete restoration of the exterior. The addition encompasses a first-floor, finished garage with arch doors that open to the gardens, ideal for entertaining. Above the garage accommodates the master bedroom, walk-in closets and a bathroom suite. The exterior restoration allowed the addition of window pediments, shutters with authentic hardware and gaslight features. Pocket gardens surround the townhouse and boast multiple plantings that complement a historic environment. The interior of the home was restructured to allow for reworking of the main stair. The reconfigured flight can now carry the weight of books and art alongside ascending residents and guests. Amid construction, two previously hidden fireplaces were uncovered. By the end of the renovation, four fireplaces were entirely refurbished and now lend immense aesthetic to interior design. The interior finishes within the home keep visitors engaged and impressed. From imported Italian tile to contextually historic light switches, the colorful décor is appealing to all senses. Specially painted walls coordinate with furnishings, bookcases and art.

Designed and built by Terramor Homes in Raleigh, NC. The master bedroom is most definitely a retreat. Calming, spa like colors on the walls, 6 large windows and the continued classic trim that was used throughout the rest of the home, is especially magnified here. A thick yet simplified cove molding highlights the perimeter and thick 1x4 cased openings with tall pediments above, create the simplicity of a farm house and clean lines in a more modern design combined. Chrome levered simple square hardware is also used throughout and the highlight of the room, is the set of large barn doors that enclose the seasonal closet and act as the artwork in the room. Painted in distressed white yet with black iron hardware, they truly set the casual tone of this room as the perfect relaxing retreat. Photography: M. Eric Honeycutt
