Living Room

The kitchen now flows seamlessly into the beautifully refreshed living room. The original office by the entry was transformed into a cozy playroom with a sliding barn door. This versatile door allows for either privacy or connection, adapting perfectly to the family's needs.

More Details

Suzanna transformed the living room by removing the original dark cabinets next to the fireplace, instantly creating a more streamlined and elegant look. She brightened and softened the space by painting the fireplace and walls with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace. Custom oak shelving was installed to neatly store the family's records and media equipment. For a striking contrast, the existing French doors were painted Benjamin Moore Black. A Nelson Saucer Bubble Pendant from Design Within Reach adds a touch of rippled texture from above. While the layout of the living room remained the same, Suzanna removed the existing blinds to maximize natural light. A cozy chair from Pottery Barn now sits in the corner, paired with a custom-built ottoman upholstered in antique saddlebag textiles, adding a unique and personal touch.

Two swivel chairs by Cisco Brothers seamlessly tie in the cool blue palette from the kitchen, creating a cohesive look. An antique cabinet from Round Top anchors one end of the couch, topped with a unique black lamp from Lamps Plus, characterized by its knobby, spiky design. A camel leather sofa from Lee Industries serves as the backdrop for an array of pillows sourced from Etsy, adding a touch of personality and comfort. Beneath it all, a vintage Heriz area rug provides a rich foundation with its intricate tones and textures. The centerpiece, a masterful solid white oak coffee table custom-designed by Suzanna and fabricated by Hatch Workshop, features large oak boards sandwiched together, cut out, and connected with circular legs and metal rods for added stability. "I'm so happy with it!" exclaimed Suzanna, reflecting her satisfaction in the thoughtful design and craftsmanship.

Powder Bath

The existing bathroom underwent a complete transformation with stunning wallpaper by Rebecca Atwood, adding a fresh and artistic touch. A vintage vanity and toilet cabinet sourced from Round Top brought in a timeless charm, complemented by a stylish light fixture from Schoolhouse. The centerpiece of the design is a cherished family painting created by the client’s grandmother, adding a deeply personal and unique element to the space.
