PLACIDA, FLORIDA
Modern Coastal Retreat
THE DETAILS
After an unfortunate incident with hot water heater explosion in my client’s second residence, our studio was called in for help immediately. Everything had been destroyed and we had to select all new flooring, cabinetry, fixtures, finishes and furnishings. There is so much to be said when you begin work on a repeat client’s residence-the trust and communication are there, and the process is smooth. The home had originally had a classic coastal feel and the clients and I wanted to change up the design direction and create a modern beach oasis.
The clients have a lot of family that visit and stay with them, some of the visitors being their younger grandkids, so we created a family room that could accommodate everyone, with the adults having their own space, and the kids getting a space right off the family room. The kids’ TV room is clad in wall-to-wall whimsical fish wallpaper that makes the grown-ups jealous! All the guest bedrooms are spacious and are the perfect spot to crash after a long day of the beach and boating.
