Primarily Focused on Primary Comfort
We first met with these clients years ago when they were looking for a general contractor to remodel their kitchen. Even though we provide design services, they had already selected a different design firm to change the kitchen layout. We worked closely with the owners and the designers to execute a successful remodel. It was so successful they selected us for both the design and the remodel of their next remodel of the primary bedroom suite.
The highlight of the design was the backlit onyx stone. The stone is very appealing when it stands alone, but when you add lighting behind it really glows. The light moves through the stone and highlights the natural colors and the pattern of the minerals in the stone. It was ultimately decided to use this feature along the back wall of the vanities. It’s a floor to ceiling element that commands your attention.
The dream team for the installation included Lisa (our Interior Designer), Omar (our independent lighting designer) and Kyle (our Project Manager). They collaborated well on the design and the assembly of the final product. It was a tricky concept as we needed to mount “removable” stone tiles to the wall. These are very heavy individual pieces…the installation could not be taken lightly…haha. We had to plan for the future in case any of the LED lighting failed and an electrician required access to the wiring.
Another key feature was in the bedroom. They really wanted a cozy but modern feel for the fireplace wall. We added some lovely trapezoid windows up above the unit which were high enough to provide excellent daylight while maintaining privacy. The fit and finish of the surround was a combination of stone and wood and it turned out wonderfully. They had also selected new furniture to compliment the accent wall. We worked closely with them on the electrical layout so we could provide LED downlighting along the base of the platform bed. And who doesn’t like outlets in the nightstand drawers?!
It is the highest compliment to be re-hired by a client. Handing over such a beautiful space to them was a great source of pride for our team.
