Today, we want to take you on a little tour of a master suite. This old home features a very large master bedroom and a very small master bathroom – we didn’t want to change the layout of the space, so we opted to make it feel bigger and more connected through the use of materials and design eye trickery!
Lately, we have had clients request specific special areas for their love of music, and it’s so fun to design and make them functional and beautiful.
