Living Room Arrangement

This Living / Dining / Kitchen area has an open layout, with unification of the different areas through color, texture and style.

Having a sectional, with a low back and open corner allows the coastal seascape backdrop to shine!

Having a large leather ottoman, versus a cocktail table allows for more versatility and softness/comfort. You can add a tray if you need a place to set a drink! This square ottoman is made by Lee Industries.

This angled wall was the perfect spot for a multi-functional mirrored console. It can be used as a server for the dining area, but I added the stools so that there was extra seating during a meal or a place to sit and do work. The ottomans can be easily utilized in the Living Room as auxiliary seating for kids!

The warm brown hue of the reclaimed wood table top contrasts beautifully with the blue accents in the room!

We really opened this kitchen up! The cabinets are two-toned, with a custom-painted blue gray finish on the upper cabinets, and a walnut stain on the bottom. I tied all the colors in the room together with this glass tile backsplash!

When you enter from the private elevator, this modern acrylic mirror and resin-cast silver leaf console table is what greets you! I wanted to make a statement in this small space!

Speaking of the entry, take a look at this fabulous wallcovering technique! The walls are covered in a striped Omexco Mica wallcovering. The ceilings are covered in an iridescent gold leaf block paper, by Phillip Jeffries!

The tile inset visually balances the high interest we created on the ceiling.

These custom barn doors, leading to the Den, add a touch of modern, and a touch of coastal charm! I had them finished in the same powder blue as the entertainment console in the Living Room.

Peeking through the barn doors, is a surprise burst of cobalt! I wanted this room, which overlooks the bay, to have darker blues, but still blend with the rest of the unit.

The Settee is by Caracole, the club chairs by Sam Moore, the upholstered stools by Vanguard Furniture, and the chevron rug by Surya.

The brown leather and polished nickel nail heads on the club chairs counterbalance the brown wood and polished nickel brackets on the settee!

I wanted the large roman shades to remain mostly neutral, but I felt they needed some color and interest. Instead of doing a typical accent color band at the bottom, I chose to use nautical grommets on a reveal band at the bottom. Behind the grommets, I designed a cobalt liner, which created the hint of color I wanted.

I like to mix patterns and textures when designing custom bedding. A botanical fabric works great with stripes and geometric patterns! Linens can be mixed with satin, velvet, and shimmering linen blends, with metallic threading.

The green accents in the room are minimal, but effective!

Here is my drawing for the new Master Bathroom vanity. The wide horizontal band of micro mosaic tiles wrapped all around the room. We were able to put in a gorgeous soaker tub, and a glass-enclosed steam shower!

Here is the final result!! I couldn’t be more pleased! The client wanted a balance between high tech/modern, and transitional. I chose the stained cabinets to keep the design warm and grounded, and added polished nickel accents, unique plumbing fixtures and modern lighting.

Here you can see how I designed the roman shade so that the wide accent band continued around, unobstructed, when the shades are down. The raindrops chandelier brings in an organic, but modern element!

The horizontal band continues on through the steam shower. The shower & vanity are separated only by a pony wall and glass. I tried to do everything possible to make this bathroom feel more spacious!

The horizontal band of tile is transitioned into the sleek porcelain tile with some taupe glass pencil trim.

Here is the chandelier I used, which is the “Ice” 13-light pendant manufactured by Eurofase.

This might be the first toilet I’ve ever felt the need to show off.  It’s so pretty!  This toilet opens/closes automatically, plays music, heats up, and all sorts of fancy stuff! I got a kick out of how many workers it startled, as they were in there to hang pictures, etc. I covered the walls in a warm gray and silver grass cloth.

Me, taking pictures…
