Why is it no matter how organized I try to be I am always running around like a mad woman the week before a vacation? Yesterday I didn't sit down to have breakfast until, get this, 5 pm. The kicker, I was up at 5 am to get my workout in...it was a long one. Since we are listing Altadore I & will be gone I needed to ensure that I had a good representation of what the home was going to look like since I can't be here in person to explain all of the details. I whipped up these boards in the matter of a few minutes, that is what a pot of coffee will do for you. Here is what any potential leads will be seeing...
The cabinetry is currently being built in the home, but it is still a far cry from being completed.
While the mud room is small it will still have a lot of style, thanks in part to the two-tone cabinetry, chevron floors, and of course, my beloved Hicks pendants.
A few tidbits here and there that are going on in the home. A stunning Arteriors light will greet people at the front door and I am excited to see the levers POP when installed on the black shaker style doors.
For the main bath upstairs I decided to go with a small hexagon mosaic on the floor, it will be paired with a 3x6 subway on the tub/shower walls. The dark grey grout & Raven colored countertops are going to allow the awesomeballs fixtures to stand out.
For the flooring & shower walls I am using a 12 x 24 tile installed in a horizontal brick pattern, pebbled in the shower base, a furniture style vanity that will be stained and again, amazing fixtures.
The flex room is one that a purchaser can use as a den or a dining room, so keeping that in mind I still wanted to use something amazing. I was inspired by the wall detail on the left (via Burnham Design), we are going with something similar as it will be tone on tone, but more dramatic with Iron Mountain. And check out that light from Arteriors, I can't wait to see that beauty in person!
The powder room has 12' tall ceilings but it is a small space, I still want it to be inviting and intimate, the walls will be painted a few tones darker than what I am using in the rest of the home, and one 2 of the walls we will be using 4" wide alder slats from floor to ceiling, this detail will also encase the vanity, making it look like a floating cube off the wall.
While we are away the cabinetry will be wrapped up, painting will commence, the floors stained, and the counters installed...it is going to be like Christmas when we get back and I see this home. I am so excited, well, not excited for the vacation to be over that has yet to start but excited to see the progress of this home. What are your thoughts, you like?? Mel xo

I LOVE! I wish I could buy it. The trim detail on the wall in the Flex room is going to be a beauty. The lighting is quite amazing, too.
I LOVE everything! It is hard to decide what I like the BEST..
oh my word! amazing...when can I move in?
In serious LOVE!
Holy shit...you are creating my dream house right there! Adore all the brass and black...the subway tile and dark grout to the ceiling is ah-maazing and all that gorgoeus lighting...just too good!!!
Gorgeous color palette and textures!!!
Can I move in? You're amazing. :)
What a stunning project! I love that everything is so classic, yet has a modern element. Thank you for selecting so many of our lighting designs. We would love to see this project once it is completed!
Melissa,
Bravo, well thought out and I love the repetition of materials and colors yet the accents of the fixtures are like beautiful jewelry. Understated and chic.
Enjoy your vacation.
Coming home to progress will of course be a welcome home!
I finally added you to my blog roll, even though you know I read your blog and admire your work.

better than Christmas! i LOVE your finishes, the consistency and the sophistication are wonderful. everything is clean, but decidedly not minimal. I can't wait to see it all!
My head is reeling...so lovely. I used those library sconces in my kitchen...in antique brass, too. Loving all your hard ware. FABULOUS job.
Oh girl, I feel like you just took all of my visions in my head for this house and put them into perfect little boards! LOVE.
Melissa,
This is so gorgeous! I love the antique brass!
If you don't mind, I'd like to give some 'user input'...the Viking dishwasher. I have one...it's junk. Viking has been been here to 'service' it 4 times in less than a year...and they refuse to replace or refund us for it. Seriously. I have a GE Profile in our beach house, that blows the Viking away. :) I almost have hubs convinced to get the Bosch (which I told him to get a year ago).
I have the warming shelf...LOVE it. The fridge/freezer, ovens & cooktop have been great too. But that dishwasher...very disappointing.
