Our client's "dream come true" is the making
of decades of their own hard work and planning
for this new season in their lives.
And now they have their dream coastal retreat,
a warm and inviting home to enjoy
along with lots of gatherings of family and friends.
As we walked the rooms during the big "reveal",
they said they could see themselves
spending time in every space throughout
and immediately having the feeling of home.
The functionality of each area
was as clear as its beauty
and everything felt really comfortable...
from the large chef's kitchen to dining space for 10,
to the amazing new deck overlooking the bay
that runs the entire length of the home,
the soft leather recliners for relaxing in,
a double sofa layout in the living room,
and the second floor gathering "hangout"
with beautifully tiled wet bar too.
They recalled the experience of finding the home,
having the vision for its complete transformation,
and what that would offer them going forward...
and then the serendipity of finding a contractor
that ended up being right next door working
when they called him to begin the conversation
about their own renovation project!
You just can't make this stuff up!
She also shared how nervous she felt
before the final reveal,
second guessing the hundreds of decisions
that had to be made in order to see
the renovation project to completion...
fabrics, flooring, space planning,
fixtures, hardware, furnishings,
and so much more.
As she walked through her new home,
along with her overwhelm,
she touched and sat in everything...
"layered neutrals with splashes of color,
mixed materials and textures"...
while thinking about all they'd had to do.
Yet all the details came together
while having our guidance and feedback
with thought and intentionality along the way
allowing them to get it all just right.
They both shared their deep appreciation
along with many hugs... and of course, yes,
there were happy tears from all of us!
How fortunate we are to assist
in creating intentional spaces like these
that bring a deep feeling of home
into the owners new lives from day one.
It's our dream come true too.
