Contemporary Home
This young, modern Baltimore family on the go wanted a completely contemporary home makeover catapulting it from the 1940s into 2019. Every room in the home was redesigned and rebuilt with a contemporary style. This busy, growing family desired clean spaces with lots of hidden storage to keep things organized. Surfaces of varied materials offer the home a unique, interesting and updated appearance using the finest of products including marble, tile, hardwood, glass, and quartzite. Incorporating a big new design trend of oversize tiles (2′ x 4′) throughout the home is considered modern in style and also offers ease in cleaning (less grout). Porcelain tile with Carrera marble veining for the formal dining room amplifies and lends to an overall sophistication.
The homeowners’ decision to install natural reclaimed wood in place of tile in many areas helped to soften some of the harder textured elements. You will see this wood incorporated in the breathtaking custom staircase to the second floor consisting of glass, wood and large circular stainless steel brackets making it an entryway showpiece. Another focal point is in the living room of this open floor plan which is a modern, thin stacked stone, linear fireplace a fresh new element accompanied by the traditional look of a clean white coffered ceiling. Brilliant design pairing!
Storage – Beautiful & Functional
What sets this home apart is the absolute attention to detail by the homeowner in selecting the multitude of items for their remodel. One such includes the mud room with the many compartments hidden behind floor to ceiling Press and Release doors that are very contemporary and custom-built cubbies to organize the whole family. The custom fabric-covered bench is a functional and beautiful addition.

Amazing Kitchen Transformation
This kitchen shines from the white coffered ceiling to the oversize “Carrera marble-like” porcelain tile and speaks of sophistication and elegance. Top-of-the-line appliances make this gourmet kitchen a chef’s dream with yards of quartzite countertops for food preparation and serving. The counter-to-ceiling backsplash of the same product, which is a hard marble adds to the clean and modern look. Keeping in the same style is the high-sheen simple white cabinetry with the press and release hinging allowing for ample storage. An amazing kitchen transformation!
One of the most important elements in any home is the bathroom. No design scrimping here. Each of the eight bathrooms whether a powder room or full bath is clean, contemporary, and oh so stunning. Choosing a floor-to-ceiling mosaic marble tile for the bathroom walls and floors lends richness and texture to each room. The modern floating vanities in white and interesting vintage lighting in the master bathroom give the rooms a clean European feel. Vintage lighting throughout the home was a hallmark design choice that added a traditional element to a mostly contemporary style.

Some of the rooms even have custom faux painted finishes that lend an elegance or the choice of bright colors of pink and purple to reflect each particular taste. Every room offers a unique quality of its own and makes this home an original masterpiece in design that sets it apart from the rest.
