With a restrictive existing structure, the homeowners wanted to create an extremely open living space. To remedy the problems and open up the floor plan, several walls were removed, and 20-foot exposed steel beams added instead.

Walls were painted, ceilings smoothed, and new Marvin windows and white oak flooring installed throughout. The revamped foyer now highlights a reclaimed beamed ceiling with views of the new metal and wood staircase, while the great room centers around a two-story Art Deco-inspired fireplace — a stylish showstopper made of reeded wood and marble with a subtle gold accent.

The team removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room to create an effortless flow, adding exposed dropped steel beams that were painted black for a striking effect. The 12-foot kitchen island looks out onto the stone pool deck through a wall of glass doors, while a full slab backsplash and range hood make a stunning statement.

Polished metallic accents and saturated jewel tones add flair to the home’s black-and-white color palette, along with a rich blend of décor and furnishings that range from bold artwork and crystal chandeliers to glitter-framed mirrors and velvet upholstered seating. Geometric patterns, quatrefoil motifs, damask designs, and animal prints add additional touches of both elegance and playfulness to the spaces.

Enameled cabinetry and vanities, quartz countertops, and tiled floors and showers can be found in the kitchen, mudroom, new laundry closet, and bathrooms. The primary bath’s floors showcase a particularly stylish black-and-white marble diamond pattern, with a punch of emerald green for added panache.

The exterior received a facelift as well, with new cedar shakes and James Hardie stucco panels that integrate beautifully with its existing siding and stonework.
