Silverlake Residence

THE BRIEF

The homeowners, a young, fun professional couple with two small children, initially planned to tackle the kitchen and bathroom renovation on their own. But they quickly realized just how involved it would be and enlisted our help. Their bright, sunny home has modern mid century bones with clean lines and large windows throughout. The homeowners wanted to add color and vibrancy while making the spaces more functional for their family. 

 

In the kitchen, green cabinets and a dining nook were must-haves. The galley style floor plan worked well, so we reconfigured the cabinetry layout and swapped a strange, unused bar seating area to make room for the dining nook. We added open shelving for easy access to daily serving pieces and for pretty display. Wipeable wallpaper in a graphic pattern tops off the dining nook and adds a fun layer of pattern to the space.

 

The primary bathroom was a major transformation. We wanted the space to feel elegant and luxurious (a space for adults!), yet completely unpretentious. The homeowners were smitten with Waterworks' Clay Paper tile in Sea Glossy, so we installed it from floor to ceiling to unify the shower and tub zones, brighten the space, and add a sense of expansiveness to the room. Our custom designed double vanity offers ample space for daily use and a makeup counter to boot. We cannot get enough of the extra thick lilac marble counter top!
