One of my favorite projects involved a complete renovation of a client's beachfront condo. They wanted the space to emulate the classic elegance of Hampton homes, incorporating elements like new kitchen and bathroom cabinets, sinks, faucets, hardware, wall features, flooring and all new furniture. With an incredible ocean view as the backdrop, the design aimed to enhance the natural beauty of the surroundings while providing a sophisticated and tranquil living space. I began by selecting high-quality, coastal-inspired materials and finishes that would withstand the seaside environment while exuding a timeless charm. For the kitchen and bathroom cabinets, we opted for crisp white cabinetry with subtle detailing, paired with sleek brushed gold hardware. The new sinks and faucets were chosen for their clean lines and durability, ensuring both functionality and style.
