 Delmar Mountain Estate
What is a designer to do when asked to deliver an elegant high end spa hotel experience for a 1990’s rustic log cabin? GUT EVERYTHING! Goodbye old and sadly dated hunter green bathroom fixtures and ghastly deep red stained pine. Hello beautiful shaker cabinets that softly harken back to the rustic home without being too overt, beautiful porcelain tiles and more sleek transitional white plumbing fixtures. The LED lit mirrors and high end plumbing fixtures lend graciously to the spa hotel feel and desired amenities. The beautiful creamy quartz with marble veining trims out everything with precision and practicality. While the soaking tub keeps the deep sense of luxury in this beautiful natural light flooded space. This new master bath is now the elegant gem in this rustic cabin style homes twiggy crown.

 29 Stevens Drive-Mudroom Bathroom
A dark, dated and drab 1970’s side entry and powder room with laundry area gets transformed into a light bright new multifunctional space! The powder room was transformed into a full bathroom with ADA accessible shower space, complete with designer grab bars, a low threshold shower and an easy to clean grout-less shower system! Who said getting older meant sacrificing on style? The side entry was transformed into a functional mudroom with storage for outerwear, a new desk area for household paperwork and was fitted with the new hidden laundry space and brand new pantries. No more lugging canned goods and other groceries up and down from the basement for this couple!

 43 Oregon Avenue
This poor neglected 1950’s kitchen got a super cheap remodel in the 1980’s, rendering it non-functional. The client wanted something neutral and buyer friendly to put the otherwise charming home on the market to sell. The walls were opened up as much as possible to let both light in and add better sight lines from the dining room and entry way. Functional and plenty of storage was added back to this space as well as recessed and undercabinet lighting to brighten up the very dark former cave-like space. Slate textured hexagonal floor tiles were added for interest and whimsy to bring back some of that classic charm. A counter to ceiling backsplash was added to help keep all the surfaces bright and clean as well as to add a little high end style. This now beautiful kitchen is no longer the ugliest room in the house but sparkles with all new materials and plenty of counter space!

 8 Sunset Boulevard

 87 Rosen Road
This early 2000’s original builder grade honey oak kitchen, received a huge space upgrade by taking down the wall between the kitchen and the dining room and incorporating that space into the new kitchen design. The homeowners love of the Cambria Seagrove countertops drove the direction of the color palette with light cream cabinets, a warm wide plank style wood look floor, matte black faucet, decorative cabinet hardware and lighting combined with cool gray island cabinets and subway tile backsplash.

 62 WINDEMERE DRIVE - KITCHEN
This home was custom built in the 1960’s with very few things about it that made sense. The kitchen was no exception. Unfortunately my client didn’t choose my first choice of floor plan to flip the kitchen to allow a deck to be built for outdoor entertaining. What we did end up doing was expanding the footprint of the kitchen as well as adding a bar area with wine storage for entertaining. These interim after pictures do not do this kitchen proper justice. It is hard to capture the fine detail of the cabinets, moulding and tile work and light fixtures. The homeowner still needs to purchase his new stainless steel appliances. Enjoy these pictures until the real after pictures are posted!

 1482 ERIE BOULEVARD-EXECUTIVE OFFICE
We were asked by James McGinness and Associate’s President, William Smith, to transform his dark and depressing segmented office space into a space that he could be proud to meet with clients and work in every day. He desired his new office to be masculine and textural. We accomplished this by playing up the modern and masculine motif with leather, dark stained wood, stainless steel, glass and gave his favorite color, blue, the center stage. This new, bright, airy and modern space is now much more befitting his position. Mr. Smith extended his gratitude and excitement for his new executive suite.

 506 BROOKLYN WAY
This couple wanted an elegant high end makeover for their master bathroom that was lost in the 1980’s. Complete with maroon fixtures, wallpaper and oak cabinetry, this bathroom was deserving of a major overhaul. The first thing we did was to reconfigure the layout to add a large custom shower in addition to a Kohler Bubblemessage soaking tub. We then updated the cabinetry, fixtures, and faucets to bring the bathroom back up to date and then added custom tile work to create a high end look. The bathroom shed the pink and maroon and took on a neutral palette of browns, tans and beiges. A beautiful result!

 85 AVON CREST

We also added quartz and porcelain tile to this soft color palate to add texture, interest and sparkle.

This was a major upgrade for my client! His previous condition was a 1960’s pink plastic tile drowned bathroom complete with carpet and a corner tub that took up half of the small bath’s usable space!!
