Elegant Shades of Gray Master Bedroom

This is my FAVORITE master bedroom that I have ever worked on. These clients are awesome so the project was fun, we started from scratch, the room had great bones, they had a good budget, they have GREAT taste, and they were brave and open minded about my daring ideas!

Seamlessly Layered Living Room

This is a well designed and well-layered room that started with a beautiful work of art in the center of the room. I found a perfectly matched rug that echoes the water in the work of art. And this buttery soft leather couch with delicate metal legs is fantastic. 

This room looked very different before with a  much too small red rug, red window treatments with a valance, and a huge old rolled arm sofa. My clients are super happy with the new room.

The goal for this master bath renovation was to transform it while keeping the costs as low as possible. This was part of a whole house move-in customization.

We kept both vanites  but painted them white and changed the hardware, faucets  and the countertop to a beautiful quartzite.

We removed the huge plate glass mirrors and terrible strip bulb lighting and upgraded to  beautiful black frame mirrors and elegant more substantial black and white lights.

To keep costs down we kept the tub and original spout but changed out all of the tile surround and added a cut marble stone mosaic tile around the window and on 8 inches of each side wall. (Which was NOT budget friendly). The tub alcove got even more glam with a beautiful deco light. 

The shower got the biggest change with a complete gut, removing both the glass doors and adding partial walls on both sides. Then repeating  the beautiful tub alcove cut marble mosaic on the shower floor.

Of course we installed  new floor tile and coordinating wall paint. 

So as you can see from the before and after pictures this bathroom “facelift” was quite a transformation!

Removing a shower from a bathroom is pretty radical, but for my lovely client who only takes baths in this bathroom that just she uses, we made her dreams come true by installing a Victoria + Albert claw foot freestanding tub. I did talk her in to adding a handheld shower head on a wall bar and someone could add a shower curtain at some point if so desired. 

The three different tiles we used layered together beautifully but the floor tile and the secondary wall tile are just background to the stunning two-stone chevron marble wall tile.  We wrapped most of the room to the ceiling in this high-end chevron cut patterened tile. 

To add some earthiness and to save a bit of money we used a cement look large scale tile up to the same height as the tub where the more expensive chevron marble tile would be mostly hidden. For some additional texture and interest we also put it on the sink wall,  side-to-side and up to the ceiling, surrounding the inset medicine cabinet. 

The floor tile is also a matte finish adding another layer of earthiness.

The roughhewn 60 inch vanity adds richness and a lot of storage.  The two pendant lights are set off beautifully hanging in front of the rough texture of the large scale cement look tile. 

My client loves her dramatically different new bathroom that is an absolutely perfect retreat for her!

Family Room with a Place to Put up Their Feet

Basement Apartment Brought to Life

Here is the main living space of a basement apartment I designed that has no windows. I had to get creative for my client that loves nature and the outdoors. I started with this huge photo stretch canvas of a tree and sourced a modern beautiful rug to go on top of the new wood-look flooring.  All the furniture is small scale and upholstered in the same fabric to keep the space looking and feeling as large as possible. And almost every piece is multifunctional. The couch is a hide-a-bed for frequent company. The ottoman is on wheels and can be a bench for extra seating, a soft place for stretching out feet, and the trays stored underneath can come up and work as a table or a place to put drinks. Even the sofa table is a place for critical storage.

The neutral wall color is the same on the walls and the ceiling. The dark green accent color is pulled from the tree photo canvas.

This is the main room for my clients’ modern open condo. They spend a lot of time on these comfortable yet elegant His and Her recliners, that don’t look like the old-school recliners.  The TV consol packs a lot of storage but also has great style. And the tight back sofa is just the right size with sleek lines. By using similar colors in the fabrics and rug color, it helped to keep the space open.

Family Room Design

Large family room with big windows but  very little wall space made TV placement tricky. This huge 17 foot tall beautiful stone fireplace gave me my color cues and style cues for a casual earthy designed room. The huge sectional and chair and a half along with the TV stand and coffee table are from Bassett furniture. The wall unit is custom designed and made.

Bathroom - "A Bit of Heaven"

The vanities are custom made from my cabinet makers and have Absolute Black quartz counter tops. The walls above the marble tile are painted Ben Moore Santorini Blue 1634. (One of my favorite colors and one of my most frequently recommended colors for being a true blue that is not too bright and reads blue but has plenty of grey in it). The awesome free standing tub is Victoia + Albert tub.

Art Lovers Swiss Army Knife Highly Designed Kitchen

This kitchen did not have many places where we could put cabinetry. My clients and I got very creative about how to get the best-designed kitchen possible with the space that they had. I like to call this the Swiss Army knife kitchen! Almost every cabinet has something that has been especially designed for it. I am so grateful to have amazing cabinet builders that can build whatever my clients needs are and that I dream up! They are amazing!

Two Story Wall of Windows and Massive Stone Fireplace Family Room

Custom built floating bookshelves and mantle look amazing when they are properly scaled for the massive fireplace and windows and soaring height of this family room. I loved sorting through the inherited treasured to stage the display shelves and only had to buy a few items to fill in here and there.

Globally Designed Living Room

Living in Washington DC I have the pleasure and fun to work with many clients who have traveled abroad. The client who I worked with on this home had lived abroad, traveled extensively,  and shop wisely. It was a joy to decorate her living room/dining  area in her townhome! She had treasures from mostly Africa and Japan, but her furniture pieces are all new purchases. The deep shag rug that anchors the seating area is from Bassett Furniture along with the couch and two side chairs. The Blue Stone dining room table and four custom dining chairs with, yes, gray zebra and purple velvet fabric are also from Bassett furniture, but fabric is from Calico Corners. The window treatments are also from Calico Corners. The wall color is a fantastic mix of Benjamin Moore Edgecomb Gray and the perfect yellow to match the beautiful window treatments Marblehead Gold. The center coffee table looks like she brought it back from an antique shop in Japan but is from Arhaus.

Yoga Studio Transformation

Beautiful, peaceful and well used yoga studio in Vienna Virginia. There is an entry area, merchandise room, a tea and gathering room, the yoga studio practice area, and two really cool little bathrooms. The yoga teacher/owner wanted it to feel very earthy and very much like a tree house. When we started working together I thought she might want to look like other yoga studios but she had her own dreams for her studio. And I was so glad I was able to make them come true. There are tree motives/earthy items throughout the whole yoga studio.

Peruvian Restaurant Remodeling

I transformed Peruvian restaurant into a more high end,  sit down family restaurant,  with granite table tops, linen napkins and bar service. I used Sherwin Williams iron ore 7069 in flat on the ceiling, and in semi-gloss on the woodwork and trim. The wall color is Benjamin Moore's healing aloe 1562. This was chosen to coordinate with the floor tiles which were pointed up and re-grouted with a black grout but not changed during the renovation to keep costs down.  I found posters on line of Peruvian food and had them framed to bring authenticity, color, and interesting content to the restaurant.  I also re-designed the two bathrooms.

I’ve always dreamed of having a clean, modernist home, and I’m happy to say that Alice and her team at Atelier Cohen led the way to making that dream a reality! I couldn’t be more happy with the project, my house looks like it could be featured in a Kinfolk magazine. I expressed my wishes of having a clean, natural interior aesthetic and they truly delivered – the natural light in my newly designed home is to die for. They also helped me turn my dated, drab living room into a spacious and cozy space in which I can’t wait to host a party. I couldn’t recommend Alice more, if you’re looking for easy collaboration and top-notch design, you have to reach out to them!

I’ve worked with Alice on a few renovation projects and am still floored by her dedication to design and space planning. Never have I experienced a hiccup or missed communication with Atelier Cohen, and home projects tend to create those sorts of problems! They are professional, approachable, and innovative in a way that anyone with any level of home renovating or staging experience will feel like they are in good hands.

Alice’s eye, advice, and service is extremely rare in this business. If you get the chance to work with them, don’t think twice about it!

I had the pleasure of working with Alice on redecorating my childhood home that hadn’t been touched up since I was a teen in the 80’s. I knew it needed a huge refresh aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I had a consultation with Alice about my hazy ideas and she was able to understand my tastes and needs after just one chat! The whole design process was so streamlined and thorough that my fears of things going awry totally vanished after the first few meetings. She walked me through every step of the process, from sharing sketches and moodboards to purchasing the final pieces of furniture and decoration. Working with Alice at Atelier Cohen has got to be my greatest investment, I highly recommend their services.

I’ve always dreamed of having a clean, modern farmhouse kitchen, and I’m happy to say that Maison Kitchen and Bath led the way to making that dream a reality! I couldn’t be more happy with the project, our kitchen looks like it could be the envy of Pinterest. I expressed my wishes of having a light, airy feel with natural but polished finishes, and they truly delivered – the kitchen in my home is to die for. They also helped me turn my claustrophobic galley kitchen into a beautiful open-space plan that makes me actually want to cook and entertain in the kitchen. I couldn’t recommend Maison K&B more, if you’re looking for easy collaboration and top-notch design, you have to reach out to them!
