Loft Renovation in Decatur, GA

 

 

Welcome to my first "official" post!

 

I'd like to introduce you to one of my favorite projects. This was a whole-house renovation in a loft near downtown Decatur, GA. The house functioned well for the clients, but aesthetically, it wasn't quite what they were looking for... this is where I come in.

 

After meeting with the client and laying out the space, I made a few minor suggestions that added a bar, fireplace/TV focal wall, additional linen storage in the Guest Bath, and more!

 

BEFORE:  The Kitchen was open to the Guest Bedroom and the dark cabinets/countertops made the room feel small and enclosed

 

BEFORE:  Doors... Doors Everywhere! The existing Guest Bathroom featured a whole lot of doors and not a lot of storage space. Never fear, I've got a solution for this :)

AFTER:  You'll see the addition of the fireplace/TV built-in here. The fireplace uses Bio-Ethanol fuel and requires no gas or electrical to make it function... great for adding a fireplace in a space where one doesn't currently exist!

 

AFTER:  The vertical pattern of the backsplash tile accentuates the height of the ceilings in this loft.

AFTER:  Using the Miele microwave and plumbed coffee system allowed for a seamless install in the cabinetry (Seriously... I'd never leave this house... you practically have Starbucks in your Kitchen!)

 

AFTER:  The trough sink was a design challenge in the Master Bathroom that led to me working with our countertop fabricator to create a custom Corian sink

AFTER:  Now here is one of my favorites! The custom concrete countertop and sink incorporated with this bad-to-the-bone faucet are just to die for. Having the faucet mounted on the mirror adds another dimensional layer to the space

AFTER:  Remember all of those doors... Well, I proposed to close the existing closet doorway to allow space for this awesome floating linen storage. The closet entrance was relocated to the Guest Bedroom. Also, the pendant on the right side of the vanity offers an asymmetrical balance to the large mirror on the left side.

 

 

I certainly enjoyed working on this project, and hopefully you enjoyed learning a bit more about it. As always, if you have questions about any of the products used in this renovation, don't hesitate to ask!

 

 

Until next time...
