Redefined Comfort | Luxury kitchen, family room, and primary bath

This project presented the exciting challenge of transforming an open floor plan into a more defined and functional layout, with distinct spaces for entertaining, gathering, and relaxing. Originally, the home lacked a proper foyer, but through thoughtful design and strategic use of lighting and finishes, we were able to create both welcoming and purposeful spaces.

In the kitchen wanted to create a cohesive and stylish connection between the kitchen and family room while embracing the incredible lake views. To achieve this, we carefully selected materials that blend elegance with durability, perfect for a young family with three active children.

This primary bathroom renovation was an exciting challenge that allowed us to completely reimagine the space. To achieve the homeowners' vision, we reallocated the footprint of two primary closets, converting that area into an expanded, luxurious bathroom. This design gave us the flexibility to incorporate all of the elements they desired while maximizing functionality and style.

Timeless Comfort in Denville

This renovation for a young family with two boys truly reflects the essence of thoughtful design that balances aesthetics with practicality. The decision to remove two walls and replace them with beams covered in red oak veneers speaks to the family’s need for an open floor plan, ensuring important sight lines while the boys play—a perfect solution for parents who want a balance between modern living and supervision.

The arch in the range hood becomes a focal point, introducing elegance and architectural sophistication to the space, while the black gloss "handmade" herringbone backsplash tiles add a layer of dynamic texture that elevates the kitchen's design. These touches show that this renovation wasn’t just about creating a functional space, but one with character and style.

Functionality was clearly top of mind, with the focus on ample storage, modern appliances, and smart layouts. These elements allow the kitchen to meet the demands of a busy family, whether it’s for everyday meals or special gatherings. The seamless flow between the kitchen, dining room, and great room makes this space ideal for entertaining and family interaction, further enhanced by the clean, open lines.

This renovation serves as a great example of how thoughtful design can transform a home, making it not only more beautiful but also more enjoyable and efficient for day-to-day living.

Finishing Florham Park

We are excited to have completed a house renovation for a young family, focusing on creating functional and stylish spaces that enhance their everyday living. The second floor includes  a luxurious primary suite, including a spacious primary bedroom, a beautifully designed bathroom, and custom his and hers walk-in closets. A convenient laundry room will also be added on this floor for easy access. On the main floor, the family room was transformed into a warm and inviting space, with custom built-ins to house the TV and family favorites. Perfect for gatherings, along with a fresh update to the powder room. The lower level will include the addition of a full bathroom, ensuring comfort and convenience for family and guests alike.

Summit- Home Updates

This active family who loves to entertain with their adult children utilize every area of their home. We created a serene space to perfectly accommodate their lifestyle in the rolling hills of Summit. We loved that this family was not afraid to accessorize their traditional home with our unique pieces! We revamped their lighting, furniture, pillows, accessories, and more.

Summit Serenity

Summit Harmony House

The age of this stunning home was honored by personalizing every area. We added a master suite and office on the second floor while maintaining the integrity and paying homage to the home's character. The combination of traditional elements and modern finishes truly made this project come to life. We incorporated wainscotting and mural wallpaper to carry the eye throughout the entire space. 
This traditional/transitional project included: Primary Bedroom, Family Room, Dining Room, Office, Windowseat

Summit- Updated Family Room

Out with the old hand-me-down furniture and in with everything new! This amazing traditional family room with built-ins was a space that was never used prior to our updating it. Post-remodel it became a calming retreat for the whole family.

Summit Revived Retreat

Sarasota Sunshine Villa

Our clients, a Denville family of avid golfers, purchased this coastal 3-bedroom condo during covid. Our main goals for this project were to ensure there was ample space and comfortable seating for friends and family to have a fabulous stay. No detail was left undone, and we created a space that was light, airy and move-in ready. It was also important to design a primary bedroom inclusive of an office, while always focusing on comfort and relaxation throughout. We added a lot of texture through wallpaper and lighting of high interest to capture a Florida vibe.

Mountain Lakes Historical Hapgood

We renovated the entire living space for a Mountain Lakes builder who loves to entertain with his family. While we admit this project was a bit challenging, everyone was beyond happy with the outcome since we opened up the entire space and built a custom fireplace for the family to gather around. Utilizing performance fabrics and rugs, which are not only beautiful, but practical, further enhanced the functionality and aesthetic of this great traditional home.

Denville Upscale Underground

This incredible basement was created with family and colder temperatures in mind. The family wanted a place to retreat in the winter with a laid back, natural, California coastal vibe; completely different than the rest of their elegant home. Their wish for four defined spaces (living, dining, bar, and games) was achieved with unique and custom pieces all around. The large banquette was custom made to fit the niche and maximizes the seating around the large 90” table. The light fixture above the table adds a really industrial feel to the area. If that isn’t enough seating for snacking, the bar is large with plenty more seating and counter space.
There is so much space to lounge on the large sectional, comfy chairs by the fireplace, or at the custom table behind the sofa which was made by local iron and woodworkers. It even includes an electric hookup for charging phones and computers. 
In the bathroom, we used vinyl wallpaper that is textured to look like wood. There are many other elements, like the faux painted wood barndoors and reclaimed beams and shelving that pull the entire space together cohesively and make it a place where everyone wants to hang out. 


Mountain Lakes Lumination Transformation

This beautiful kitchen area was created with family in mind. Our clients have young children so it was important that this design incorporate beauty and comfort as well as durability for years to come. The sleek and clean white cabinets and counters plus the pop of navy in the island and bar area are accented beautifully with brass hardware and fixtures. Additionally, we integrated a showstopping quartz sink. Completed during the covid pandemic, we were sure to go above and beyond to make everyone comfortable while perfecting every aspect of this kitchen, dining space and powder bath.

Morris Plains | Rustic Elegance Family Room

This project started with the client needing help choosing paint colors and accessories and ended up with a full fireplace makeover in their open concept living area with 24’ ceilings. The real challenge here was helping the client, who didn’t want to change the existing fireplace, see the impact of adding molding and stone all the way to the ceiling in the two-story family room. 

This young family with two young kids has no time for decorating. Their style is calming and simple with rustic vibes. Rustic elegance, if you will. We achieved the final look by using performance fabrics, rustic shelving and tables, and adding a huge light fixture to adorn the two-story family room where entertaining is key. The husband was very specific about the TV placement and the design of the media console. With the chaise positioned perfectly for comfortable TV viewing and the help of a local woodworker to create the perfect custom TV console, the clients are ready to host in their beautifully designed space.

Mountain Lakes | Master Bedroom & Living Loft

Master Bedroom & Living Loft. We worked with this client on several different areas of the home while using many existing elements to create family and dog friendly spaces. We did custom window treatments throughout and also added in custom pillows and commissioned art. The rug in the family room was a large custom size to accentuate the swirled design.

The goal in the master bedroom was to create a spa-like retreat overlooking the lake while using the existing furniture and bedding. We chose all new light fixtures without moving the existing wiring. We always love when everyone gets involved in the design and it was no exception when the husband gave the inspiration for the lighting hanging over the nightstands. So unique! We painted the wall behind the bed for some interest in the client’s favorite color, blue, and the rug was custom cut from carpet for the room. The swivel chairs by the window create the perfect place to sit and enjoy the view out the large bedroom windows. 

The guest bathroom was outfitted with a custom roman shade to compliment the existing colors.

Mountain Lakes | Kitchen Reno, Laundry, Bath, and Dining Updates

These empty-nesters were unhappy with their dysfunctional kitchen and had a big vision for the changes. Creating an open floorplan with sightlines and a highly functional/beautiful kitchen with lots of island seating was the priority. We designed custom low-back swivel stools so that they weren’t visible over the counter. The counter stools and chairs around the round table were sight-unseen so the clients really had to trust that these were going to come together and work beautifully in their space… and they did! We went with a classic white cabinet and warmer tones in the stools and the gorgeous quartzite countertops.
Kitchen Reno, Laundry, Bath, and Dining Updates. 
 
Leading into the dining room, the real showstopper here is the traditional dining table which we had refinished and then added mid-century modern chairs, beautiful lighting, and textured wallpaper to give new life to this room. 
In the laundry room a bench, broom closet, and plenty of storage for organization were key. The fun tile floors carry into the bathroom where we used a wallpaper full of big, happy florals. 

The old fireplace was clunky and non-functional. We added a bar to create a nicer flow for entertaining, storage, and display shelves with lighting. The swivels were done in a custom fabric to compliment the existing sofa while tying in the khaki, rust and olive green colors the client loves. 

This home will be enjoyed by the client’s family for years to come!

Hillcrest

This traditional living room started out as a Tuscany-style space, and wow, what a difference by the time we were done! We were able to completely transform the room to light and bright by incorporating textured wallpaper, a new paint palette, enhanced lighting, along with a unique cocktail table. Utilizing family-friendly fabric kept the space functional as well.

Boonton Nursery

A new nursery design is always one of our absolute favorites! Everything in this one-of-a-kind project stemmed from the colors and textures of elephants and acacia trees. We created custom wallpaper by bringing in a digital artist to truly encompass the warmth intended for this precious baby boy's nursery!

Southampton Retreat

We absolutely loved this project from floors to ceilings and everything in between! True timeless elegance abounds in this coastal, yet traditional, whole home renovation where each and every detail was handled with care. The family of this striking Southampton waterfront home loves to entertain, so we took that into consideration with every step, including the pool area. We're sure this amazing home will continue to be a favorite spot for making family memories for years to come!

Summit Gameroom

Our client decided that their under-utilized traditional dining room needed a complete transformation, so we asked them to think about what a better use for the space would be. Why, a game room of course! Sometimes thinking out-of-the-box is your best bet!
