2024 Excellence in Design Awards

In the main lobby custom tile designed by the designer was utilized to make a statement in a beautiful golden wave pattern. Modern woven chairs create more visual interest and reflect the organic lines of the natural environment.

Mirror 'train windows' (Lowes), 'luggage racks' (Target), biophilic wood-grained cafe tables and chairs by Phillips Collection. Durable vinyl plank flooring reminiscent of a factory floor, trompe l'oeil hand-painted border to reflect the curve of a train car ceiing, art-deco inspired wall sconces and generous accessible corridor.

This is the Stack Room. This was designed in a mid century modern vibe with a slightly more feminine feel when compared to The Pattern Room. The brick walls and wood beams were left untouched and are an important component of the room.

The project's overarching design prioritized functionality for everyday living, tailored to suit the needs of a family home with a seamless indoor-outdoor performance. Versatility remained a central theme throughout the design process. For instance, a card table in the sunlit great room serves as a hub for family game nights and occasional homework sessions.

A wall was removed to open the kitchen and dining room. This created an open, bright space to cook, serve, entertain, and enjoy. A spacious island can accommodate a host of friends, while offering overflow into the adjacent dining room, living room, and patio.

In the living room, a fluted terrazzo fireplace wall with reclaimed glass acts as an artistic focal point, flanked by a custom serving bar with discreet storage, metallic inlays, and an antiqued mirror backsplash. Furnishings include woven textures, performance fabrics and rugs, and nautical colors and patterns, creating a bright and casual atmosphere perfect for entertaining guests indoors and on the adjacent oceanfront balcony.

This dining room blends timeless elegance and contemporary charm with a damask-patterned accent wall, creating a harmonious transitional design. The traditional wallpaper brings a classic touch, while its proportions enhance the modern, updated aesthetic.

One large great room functions as an easy going space for entertaining with minimal distractions. Custom designed kitchen is now located in what was previously a den. Quartz is used in 3 cm thickness on the countertops and honed to 2cm to create the entire back wall of the kitchen. All lighting is meticulously positioned for best overhead and task lighting.

This is an image of what you see walking through the door from the hallway. Layers of texture, and pattern draw the eye in. The space feels symmetrical with the illusion of a centered window. The custom designed headboard with the vertical tufting and contrast trim adds dimension and depth, along with drawing the eye up to the beautiful custom cornice. The layers of custom bedding compliment and enhance the design of the guest bedroom. The suspend mirrors filter light into the space while the gold toned frame acts as an accent along with the frames of the art work. All the elements work seamlessly and beautifully together with the blue and green color palette.

A spacious vanity in cherry bourbon stain brings in a natural element, working with the brass accents balance all of the cool tones. Adding substantial storage, this long vanity is paired with brass sconces and black mirrors for a masculine and sophisticated look. White quartz countertops were used to relate back to the crisp, white trim.

This photo shows the entire bathroom from the door to the back wall. The layout is efficient, but the bathroom still feels roomy and bright. Pink subway tile was used behind the vanity for a bold look upon entering the bathroom. White fish scale tile was used on the rest of the walls to balance the pink floor and vanity wall, and help keep the small space bright. Plumbing fixtures were kept streamlined and simple, to compliment the ornate mirror and pendants.

Experience the perfect blend of elegance and durability in this redesigned laundry room, featuring updated cabinetry and stunning Havana granite countertops. The custom side splash and earthy charcoal and cool gray Zellige subway tiles add a touch of sophistication to this functional space.

The vanity tops are a differing gray marble adding more distinction and contrast. The natural oak for the cabinets creates a nice grounding element, hearkening once again to the coastal atmosphere.
