In this transitional farmhouse in West Chester, PA, we renovated the kitchen and family room, and installed new flooring and custom millwork throughout the entire first floor. This chic tuxedo kitchen has white cabinetry, white quartz counters, a black island, soft gold/honed gold pulls and a French door wall oven. The family room’s built in shelving provides extra storage. The shiplap accent wall creates a focal point around the white Carrera marble surround fireplace. The first floor features 8-in reclaimed white oak flooring (which matches the open shelving in the kitchen!) that ties the main living areas together.

This elegant traditional powder room has little contemporary edge with the added unique crystal wall sconces. The blue grass clothe has a sparkle of gold peaking thought just enough to give it some shine. The custom was art was done by the home owner who happens to be one fabulous Artist. The custom tall wall paneling was added on purpose. This added architecture to the space with the already thick and wide crown molding. It carries your eye down to the new beautiful paneling. Such a classy and elegant bath room that is truly timeless. A look that will never die out. The carrara custom cut marble top is a jewel added to the gorgeous custom made vanity that looks like a piece of furniture. What beautifully carved details giving it a wow factor. My client found the dragon applique that the cabinet guy incorporated to making it more unique than it already was.

Blue fish scale tile wainscoting has this petite powder room swimming in charm thanks to the tile's exposed scalloped edges. For more seaside vibes, look to Fireclay's Ogee Drop or Wave Tile. TILE SHOWN Ogee Drop Tile in Cerulean DESIGN Jennifer Hallock Designs PHOTOS D Wang Photo
