ON THIS TRANSITIONAL PRIVATE RESIDENCE, WE HELPED THE CLIENTS UPDATE THE LOOK OF THEIR OUTDATED HOME WITH A NEW PALETTE OF FRESH FINISHES, FURNITURE, FABRICS AND LIGHTING.
THE COOL COLOR PALETTE OF WHITE, GREY AND BLUE IN VARYING SHADES, PATTERNS AND TEXTURES BEAUTIFULLY PLAYS AGAINST THE RICH WOOD BEAMS AND FLOORING, GIVING A FRESH NEW LIFE TO THIS COASTAL ENCINITAS PROPERTY. WE ENCLOSED THE DINING ROOM SLIGHTLY GIVING THE SPACE A MORE FORMAL FEEL AND ADDED FUN BARN DOORS FOR VISUAL INTEREST, AS WELL AS TO ALLOW THE CLIENTS TO CLOSE OFF THE ROOM FOR A PRIVATE DINING EXPERIENCE.
WE PAINTED ALL THE WOODEN WINDOWS AND DOORS WHITE AND SELECTED A COASTAL STRIPED BLUE AND WHITE FABRIC FOR THE UPHOLSTERY OF THE SITTING ROOM CHAIRS ADD A FRESHNESS TO SPACE AND THEN COMPLETED THE LOOK WITH PRETTY DECORATIVE ACCESSORIES.
IN THE DINING ROOM WE BROKE UP THE ALL WOOD CEILING BY PAINTING THE TONGUE AND GROOVE WHITE AND APPLYING A CONTRASTING DARKER STAIN TO THE BEAMS GIVING THE ROOM A DRAMATIC EFFECT. THE HOMEOWNERS WANTED TO KEEP THEIR ORIGINAL FIREPLACE MANTEL, SO WE WENT WITH AN ANTIQUE FARMHOUSE DINING TABLE THAT HAD A SIMILAR WOOD TONE TOP WITH DARKER LEGS. WE THEN SELECTED A DARKER WOOD BUFFET IN WHICH TIED ALL THE FINISHES TOGETHER. WE ADDED A LEATHER STRAPPED CHANDELIER AND TWO NEW WALL SCONCES TO FURTHER ENHANCE THE ROOM BOTH VISUALLY AS WELL AS PROVIDING BETTER MOOD LIGHTING PREFERRED FOR A DINING ATMOSPHERE. OFF TO THE RIGHT AND SEEN BELOW, YOU GET A PEAK INTO THE MASTER BEDROOM WHERE WE DID A FULLY UPHOLSTERED SLEIGH BED IN A TUFTED LINEN, IRON FRAMED BENCH AT THE FOOT OF THE BED AND CARVED WOOD NIGHTSTANDS ACCENTED WITH LINEN WRAPPED MIRRORS WITH BRASS NAILHEAD DETAILS.
