Charlotte & Chris

Jump to a section

Charlotte and Chris had just moved into their dream neighborhood to raise their two-year-old daughter, and they couldn’t wait to renovate and put down roots. Just as we started renovations, though, an enormous tree fell on the home, demolishing the upper floor. While Charlotte and Chris were thankful they weren’t home when the tree hit their daughter’s room, they know there’s a lot more work to do—and we’re not going to let this stop us from giving them the Forever Home they deserve.

Before & After

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

KITCHEN SIX-CESS

Chris, a game developer, asked us if we could install six-sided tile in the kitchen backsplash, in honor of a hexagon-heavy game he had been working on. (Chris must really love his work if he wants a reminder in the kitchen!) With Charlotte’s blessing, we said yes, and found this blue geometric tile that pairs perfectly with the dark wooden cabinets.

GETTING OUTSIDE AGAIN

We could understand Charlotte’s anxiety about the surrounding trees after one went through their daughter’s room, but we didn’t want that worry to keep them from enjoying every inch of their new home. Our arborist gave a clean bill of health to the rest of the trees, and we set about updating the outdoor dining space. It’s time for this family to make new, good memories in their home—inside and out.

PROJECT YOUR DREAMS

The entryway leads directly into this shared family room space, which held a huge stone fireplace and not much else. Charlotte needed room for her books, and Chris wanted somewhere the family could all watch a movie. We said, “Why not both?” By installing a projector screen in the ceiling, Chris gets the big screen he wanted, while Charlotte gets the space for beautiful built-in shelves to hold her many books.
