room by room :: master bathroom

For the master bathroom, I utilized several of the same elements that were used in the downstairs bathroom. The freestanding vanities from Ikea worked perfectly as did the wall color, floor and wall tile. The layout is quite a bit different but as for the design, I only switched out the accent tile and how it was applied.

After searching through endless accent tile options and balancing style with budget, I found a fabulous mini brick marble mosaic at Home Depot. I used in as a border and in the inset. To add a little more dimension to the border, I sandwiched it with two bands of white beveled subway tiles.

 

Another element I used in the master bath to elevate it a little was marble sill found in the flooring department at Lowe's. I used it as baseboard, to cap the shower curb and to cap the narrow ledge I designed to run the length of one of the shower walls.

project :: corporate airplane hangar + lobby

For this recent project, I was tasked with sprucing up a corporate airplane hanger and office space. Previously, it had been leased by an airplane maintenance service, so scuffs were abundant! The first order of business was a fresh coat of paint and Benjamin Moore's Rockport Gray was the perfect greige to complement the commercial vinyl flooring.

The client gave me about a week to complete the furnishings, so I sought out off-the-floor items that could be delivered right away. For the art over the sofa, I requested a high resolution photo from the nice folks at Beechcraft. Then, with a little tweaking, I created a pretty cool triptych that I ordered from Easy Canvas Prints. They were great to work with, the product was well-priced and I received my ready-to-hang panels in about a week.

 I was happy with the result and enjoyed the challenge of finding ready-to-purchase items. Most importantly, the client was happy and love their new hangar!

And who doesn't love a King Air, right??
