This powder room exudes a luxurious and eclectic charm. The custom vanity is crafted from largeformat porcelain slabs, including a striking streaked backsplash made from the same material. To support the heavy material and floating design, the slabs are carefully fabricated and installed on reinforced framing. The geometric porcelain floor tiles add an extra touch of sophistication, while the faucet and light fixtures feature an elegant champagne bronze finish.

The cabinets facing the walkway on either side of the bed wall are equipped with doors, ensuring the closet remains concealed and seamlessly integrated when viewed from the bedroom. The arrangement of shelves, rods, and drawers is the result of detailed discussions with the clients to meet their specific needs.

LANSING

Transformed a one-and-a-half-story bungalow into a two-story, open-concept home featuring four bedrooms. Designed for a family of five, the project aimed to foster family connection through open living spaces such as the kitchen, dining and family room, while ensuring privacy in other areas.

The design incorporated organic materials, including light oak and concrete tiles, complemented by vibrant kitchen cabinetry and an eclectic-style main floor bathroom. Elements of modern design were seamlessly integrated throughout.
