Izzie's House was a full-home renovation in a neighborhood near Denton, TX. The house was built in 2001 and much of the original materials were still in place. Our client was eager to update the house to a more current style.
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 Irwin Farmhouse project is especially significant for us as it is our own “new” home. It may just be our favorite project to date. While we’ve renovated for ourselves before (see our most recent project at our previous house here), we always made changes one room at a time. This time we updated the entire house at once before we moved in. That enabled us to make the whole house cohesive from a design standpoint and create a space that perfectly reflects what feels like home to us.
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!
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 Coach's Quarters farmhouse style renovation project took place at a home on a beautiful tree-filled lot in a rural neighborhood. Our clients had been in the house for years and had completed projects before, but were ready to overhaul the kitchen, living room and master bathroom to update the main floor to a more current style.
This project was especially exciting as it was our own master bathroom! While the room had great bones, the design was decades out of date (cultured marble and seashell sinks!). The tiled wall enclosing the tub/shower cut the room in half, making it feel small and cramped. The vaulted ceiling added great interest, but the design didn't utilize its potential as a feature in the room. We had ample counter space on the long vanity, but cabinet storage was lacking due to the outdated vanity cutout. While we appreciated the closet storage space, the old sliding door had been removed and the curtain separating the closet from the bathroom made the transition feel cluttered.
When we first saw the property we would come to call “The Redemption House,” it was uninhabitable. Built in 1916, it had been added onto more than once, yet the latest work seemed to have been in the 1970s. While it was in a coveted historical area in Denton, it had been vacant for quite a while and was badly overgrown and neglected.
