Mayfield Park
What initially started as a small redecorating project turned into a large renovation. The client had just purchased the modern-style home and wanted to make it feel like her own through paint, furnishings, and the right plan to display her art collection. As the project progressed, it evolved into a more extensive remodel that included a library, kitchen, and primary bathroom.
In the office, we designed a library built-in for antique clocks and art books, plus an extra large custom desk with outlets and plenty of working space for the client to spread out. This room is now a favorite spot in the house.
We continued together to refinish the kitchen. A tile backsplash was replaced to better relate to the home’s architecture, while the cabinets were painted a vintage merlot color as a nod to the art-loving client’s other hobby — wine. Glass front cabinets are finished with a pink interior to complement the homeowner’s depression-era green glass collection. We then refinished the fireplace of the open-concept living space to tie in with the kitchen refresh.
Since the home was already in a state of renovation, the client determined it was the best time to address the needs of the primary bathroom. We designed a new vanity and shower. Finishes were again selected to fit the home’s modern architecture, including walnut-stained cabinets and terrazzo-look floors. A wet room outside the shower is clad with floor-to-ceiling wall tile and a modern-style bench made to size. Grasscloth wallpaper rounds out the organic, modern look of the space.
Custom furniture, pillows, area rugs, and window treatments were installed to complete the design. These soft elements demonstrate the support of the precious art throughout the home, the consistent and original priority of the entire project.
