I designed this master bath vanity and had it built, using parts I ordered from four different suppliers. Counter is soapstone. Shelves are glass, supported by brass tubing. Mirror is a built-in Robern. Floor tiles are soapstone. Not shown is an antique cast iron corner tub. Notice the vintage scale and makeup mirror! Photo by Julia Gillard

The owners of this Queen Anne Victorian desired a more functional floorplan, improved views to outdoor space, and a period design that would respect the original look of the home. To achieve those goals, a mudroom and bathroom were removed from the rear wall, and the bath placed instead at the opposite end of the kitchen. This allowed a bank of windows to be situated above the sink and adjacent workspace, bringing plenty of natural light into the room. Appliances and cabinetry were rearranged to provide better workflow and easier access to adjoining rooms and a deck. New custom cabinetry better reflects the period character of the house.

This full refurbishment boasts rooms with beautiful proportions and high ceilings. The owners required formal entertaining space and this provided us the perfect opportunity to create a truly bespoke interior. We sourced exquisite antiques, one off pieces and custom-made designs. A handful of key design pieces are peppered throughout the house. To fully reflect our clients’ tastes we added an eclectic combination of old and new furniture for an interesting visual mix, creating an interior that feels timelessly elegant and welcoming.

Looking at this home today, you would never know that the project began as a poorly maintained duplex. Luckily, the homeowners saw past the worn façade and engaged our team to uncover and update the Victorian gem that lay underneath. Taking special care to preserve the historical integrity of the 100-year-old floor plan, we returned the home back to its original glory as a grand, single family home. The project included many renovations, both small and large, including the addition of a a wraparound porch to bring the façade closer to the street, a gable with custom scrollwork to accent the new front door, and a more substantial balustrade. Windows were added to bring in more light and some interior walls were removed to open up the public spaces to accommodate the family’s lifestyle.

An original turn-of-the-century Craftsman home had lost it original charm in the kitchen and bathroom, both renovated in the 1980s. The clients desired to restore the original look, while still giving the spaces an updated feel. Both rooms were gutted and new materials, fittings and appliances were installed, creating a strong reference to the history of the home, while still moving the house into the 21st century.

Chic, elegant yet simple. This master bath contains the delicate details of the Victorian style blended with today’s luxuries such as the spacious shower and whirlpool tub. A happy union between design and function.
