Design Trends: 2018

It has been far too long since my last post my friends!

My goal/plan is to get back into posting on a regular weekly basis.

I would like to start off with presenting this years design trends.







Patterned Tile
Subway tile is out and pattern tile is all the rage!

Open Shelving

No more upper cabinets.

Live Plants

We have taken part in this trend!
We are obsessed with all of our house plants.

 

Having living plants throughout your home, really adds color and life.

Black Fixtures


So sleak and modern.

Concrete

We are seeing the use of concrete for countertops, backsplash and flooring becoming more and more popular.

Terrazzo



What's so great about this product, is it has complete customizability!
And it works perfectly for flooring, countertops, backsplashes- virtually any surface and application.

 

Marble




Everywhere!

Two Tone Cabinets




Solid white cabinets are a thing of the past.

 

Mixed Metallics

Have fun mixing your metal finishes.
No need to stick to just one color.

Freestanding Bath Tubs

These luxurious tubs help create such a spa like space.

Keep these trends in mind, when planning your next project.

Before & After: Bathroom Remodel

It has been a very busy couple of months over here!

We just finished this master bathroom remodel.

 
Before Pictures

This home was built in the late 1950s.
It originally did not have a shower in the master bathroom.
It was added years later. But not done to code- if you know what I mean..

Before Floor Plan

 

My Purposed Plan  

 

 There was a lot of plumbing involved in this project.

 We needed to tie the new shower plumbing into the rest of the house.
(It was on it's own french drain-- so weird)

We had to jack hammer a good amount of the floor to do so. 

And then fill the holes with new cement.

Once the plumbing and framing work was complete- we were able to move forward!

 

After the sheetrock work was complete, we installed ship lap that was salvaged from the clients parents home- on the back wall.
Painted and started tile work.

Paint Colors:
Walls: Saxon Grey #HGSW1455
Trim, Doors & Ceiling: Dover White #6385
Ship Lap: Incredible White #7028

I just can not get enough of this bathroom!!

It has vintage charm with a modern appeal.

I am so happy to have been apart of another project for this family.

Looking forward to their next one!
