These fun homeowners were ready to change up their master bathroom but did not want anything too trendy or too gray. They also didn't want to go too modern or farmhousey. What was on their wish list? •Remove the corner whirlpool tub and add a double slipper pedestal tub. ✔️Yes ma'am! •Remove cultured marble shower and add tile. ✔️Our pleasure. •Lighter countertops and possibly light cabinets✔️You got it! •Stay in the beige/tan family, no trendy colors. ✔️Got it! •Keep the clawfoot cabinet style. ✔️Yes ma'am! The finished project is a transitional bathroom design that nods to their traditional taste with hints of modern touches. Nothing too trendy, nothing to gray. A perfect mix of classic and new and ready to be enjoyed.

Custom cabinetry conceals laundry equipment while the quartz stone top provides ample space for folding.

Overview Extension and complete refurbishment. The Brief The existing house had very shallow rooms with a need for more depth throughout the property by extending into the rear garden which is large and south facing. We were to look at extending to the rear and to the end of the property, where we had redundant garden space, to maximise the footprint and yield a series of WOW factor spaces maximising the value of the house. The brief requested 4 bedrooms plus a luxurious guest space with separate access; large, open plan living spaces with large kitchen/entertaining area, utility and larder; family bathroom space and a high specification ensuite to two bedrooms. In addition, we were to create balconies overlooking a beautiful garden and design a ‘kerb appeal’ frontage facing the sought-after street location. Buildings of this age lend themselves to use of natural materials like handmade tiles, good quality bricks and external insulation/render systems with timber windows. We specified high quality materials to achieve a highly desirable look which has become a hit on Houzz. Our Solution One of our specialisms is the refurbishment and extension of detached 1930’s properties. Taking the existing small rooms and lack of relationship to a large garden we added a double height rear extension to both ends of the plan and a new garage annex with guest suite. We wanted to create a view of, and route to the garden from the front door and a series of living spaces to meet our client’s needs. The front of the building needed a fresh approach to the ordinary palette of materials and we re-glazed throughout working closely with a great build team.
