This 1956 John Calder Mackay home had been poorly renovated in years past. We kept the 1400 sqft footprint of the home, but re-oriented and re-imagined the bland white kitchen to a midcentury olive green kitchen that opened up the sight lines to the wall of glass facing the rear yard. We chose materials that felt authentic and appropriate for the house: handmade glazed ceramics, bricks inspired by the California coast, natural white oaks heavy in grain, and honed marbles in complementary hues to the earth tones we peppered throughout the hard and soft finishes. This project was featured in the Wall Street Journal in April 2022.

Guest Bathroom remodel in North Fork vacation house. The stone floor flows straight through to the shower eliminating the need for a curb. A stationary glass panel keeps the water in and eliminates the need for a door. Mother of pearl tile on the long wall with a recessed niche creates a soft focal wall.

This stylish powder room features grasscloth wallpaper atop navy blue wainscoting for a modern take on coastal style. An antique chest was fitted with a marble top for a beautiful sink with storage. A beaded chandelier, modern sconces and mercury glass mirror give the space a touch of glamour.

The majority of our customers want to remove their unused tub and use the gained spaced for a larger shower. We gave these incredible clients what they wanted while saving money by not moving any walls & keeping the existing window. The reclaimed wood is from a barn in Tennessee. Cabinets are KCD Brooklyn Slate. -Tony Pescho
