Bachelor Bliss…

By -







Combining hall space with a closet and a small out dated bathroom we were able to create this elegantly understated ultimate bachelor suite in soothing shades of espresso and cream.
The wish list included a generous sized steam shower with a seat, two lavatories, linen storage, a clothes hamper, a separate water closet and a large well organized and well lit walk-in closet.



Honed Imperial Cream travertine tile laid on the floor in random size and pattern acts as a dramatic backdrop for the rich stained cherry vanity cabinet and is capped off with a travertine counter top including his and her sinks. Hammered bronze vanity hardware mimics the band of metal tiles surrounding the shower.
Simple yet stately, cherry crown moldings grace the space and tie the cabinetry together keeping the over all look from being too fussy.




Cherry door frames, pocket doors and a cherry display niche in the water closet add the finishing touches.
Being an interior space without windows made the room quite dark. A unique solution to this was to create an interior textured glass window between the mirrors which allowed an adjacent skylight in the next space to flood the room with natural light while providing privacy.



The heart of this suite features luxurious Kohler biscuit and brushed nickel fixtures and accessories including multiple rain tiles, a ThermaSol steam shower and a frameless glass door. An adjacent tall cabinet holds towels and other shower essentials.
The generous eye pleasing closet portion of the suite boasts a place for everything and everything in its place and proves that form and function in equal portions will live blissfully ever after.

European travel influence newlyweds’ style sense. These newlyweds were combining two households and were searching for one voice for their collective style. Before they were married, life was simple - design-wise that is. Each leaned toward clean lines. But it was their love of travel that inspired them to collect antiques from around the world. The objects they purchased were more “old world” than contemporary. Enter Covenant Kitchens & Baths in Westbrook. The designers there helped create a kitchen that would utilize the couple’s one-of-a-kind treasures. First there were some logistics involved. Moving the kitchen from the dark north side of the house to the spot where the dining room had been, next ...

Color, color, color…Driven by a love for color this homeowner knew she wanted this bird’s egg blue cabinetry for her kitchen the moment she saw it in the designer’s showroom. “It was the first color I chose for the house, and I used it for all the color choices I made for walls furniture and fixtures.” Designed to the period of the home, this kitchen was created to keep as much of the 1932 Cape Cod feel of the home as possible while giving it a completely functional update. The designer kept all the smallest details in mind including door styles, pulls, “icebox” latches and bracketed molding. All the details harken back to the earlier era. In keeping with the old house feel, fir floors stained in cherry provide some orange tones which are a nice foil to the blue-gray tones of the cabinetry. The choice of a galley kitchen versus a great room style kitchen was made again to keep with the look and feel of times gone by. In addition to keeping the kitchen as a committed food prepar...
