Parade Home: 2018

It has been far too long since my last post.

We have been insanely busy at work these days.

But I thought I would finally share all the photos and details about our parade home from earlier this year.

I was inspired by textures. In every room of the house, I chose materials that made you want to touch and explore.

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.
