The Thundercrest House was built in the late 1980s and is located in Denton, Texas. Our clients are both very creative and had already put their design skills to work renovating many areas of their home. However, the bathrooms, kitchen countertops, and kitchen backsplash remained dated and didn't flow well with the rest of the house.
Our Elegant Marble Bathroom project is located in a beautiful hillside neighborhood in Highland Village, Texas. The house was built in the 90s and our clients had updated much of it, but the master bathroom was dated and awkward in layout. The angular shower partially blocked the entrance to the master closet, and narrow access to the garden tub increased the closed-in feeling in the bathroom.
Welcome to Part III of our Irwin Farmhouse before and after! If you haven’t seen Part I (kitchen, living room, sunroom and laundry room) and Part II (hall bath, guest room and kids' rooms) be sure to check those out! We shared our vision for the whole house and the scope of our renovation in Part I, and this blog is the conclusion to the renovation story.
The Nottingham Woods Spa Bathrooms project was special as it was our second major renovation in this home. Our clients have an eye for sleek modern design, and wanted to update their master and guest bathrooms to this aesthetic.
The Open Door House was a two-part project consisting of two bathroom renovations. Built in 1978, The house is set on a large lot in a hidden gem of a neighborhood in Denton, TX. Our clients felt the dated bathrooms didn't match their style and wanted to freshen up the spaces while adding some fun texture.
Over the years and through all kinds of projects, we've collected some favorite details that just seem to finish the job well. We pride ourselves in regularly paying attention to details in all projects. They are just as important to the overall finish of a space as the big items, and we believe they are often the little touches that enhance functionality for the client. Some of these details were our idea, some were requested by our clients, but all made a difference in their respective spaces. Here are our favorite details - bathroom edition!
The Franklin Farmhouse was a very fun project for us! Our clients were long-time friends who had moved back to the area after years of living out of state, and their modern farmhouse style is very similar to the style we prefer for our own home. The house is in an ideal location on a lot with plenty of elbow-room and lots of mature trees. Built in the early 1990s, the house was the perfect size for a growing family, yet felt bland and generic. Our clients' goals were to increase the functionality of the house for their family's needs while also updating the style of the home.
Our Midcentury Modern Bathroom project is one of our favorite transformations to date! Our clients' master bathroom was cramped and out of style. They both have fantastic design taste and knew there was potential for a more functional and aesthetically-pleasing space. Our main goals in this project were to make the bathroom feel larger without increasing its footprint and revamp the design in midcentury modern style.
The Little Chapel Bathroom project was in a home in a well-established Denton neighborhood. It had been renovated in the past, but the style did not flow well with what our client had done in the rest of her home. This guest bathroom was small, but backed up to a seldom-used closet in the entry. Our goals for the project were to reconfigure the bathroom layout to extend into the unused closet and update the entire space with tile and paint.
The Texas Gate House is located outside town down a windy rural road. Set on over 2 acres and built in 2000, the Texas Gate House is the ideal country farmhouse complete with a large front porch and dormer windows. It earned its name from the cattle guard at the entrance of the long driveway. Cattle guards are humorously called "Texas Gates" in Canada where Kelley grew up, and the name stuck.
