In the kitchen, new appliances, countertops, plumbing and lighting were added to update the space. Above the sink, decorative lighting fixtures are functional but with a strong visual presence. A neutral backsplash is easy on the eyes. The countertop was extended to accommodate comfortable bar stools, perfect for gathering during meal times.

Adjacent to the kitchen, what was previously a desk workspace became a fully-operational custom bar. A mini fridge, sink, cabinetry and glassware are all provided for an easy entertaining corner. The family room nearby functions as a casual space meant for informal gatherings. A large neutral sectional provides ample seating.

Inspired by stays at the Four Seasons, the primary bath was redone in elegant tones of black-and-white. The result is an approachable bath that feels easy to get ready in—nothing is overdone. All natural marble adds a sense of luxury.

The primary bedroom was reinvented from a busy, cluttered attic into a simple, fresh space for rest and relaxation. Neutral tones are carried throughout. Plush textures are woven into the textiles of the room, including the headboard, rug and bedside chair.
