Warm Retreat This bath is a couples retreat designed around a love of all things natural and the lake cabin lifestyle. Set in a lake community in Nebraska, this bathroom offers an organic yet polished space to unwind at the end of the day. Just as the water on the lake at sunrise and sunset is calm, this bathroom is serene and tranquil. A requirement for their bathroom was to have plenty of natural light and natural materials to reflect their surroundings. The design focuses on a comfortable and durable space was necessary as this will be their long term residence. A few specific requirements which were met include: two sink areas, a large jetted tub, separate shower with several showerheads, and a separate toilet and bidet. The large rectangular custom copper bathtub by Diamond spas meets the clients’ needs and the natural aesthetic of the copper is a focal point in the space. The shower is spacious and includes a floating bench, four body sprays, two rain showerheads, and two thermostatic showerheads. It is perfect for a peaceful yet luxurious shower. Programmable radiant in-floor heating readily available, adds warmth to not just the eye but to the senses. The recycled glass countertops and the onyx vessel sinks reinforce the color palette. Six south-west facing clerestory windows offer a great amount of desired natural light. Blue accent lights placed on the wall on either side of the copper bathtub add a cool glow to the warmth of the walls and porcelain wood floor. Beige glass wall sconces by the sink mirrors allow the light to be reflected in the bathroom. With all functional requirements met, this bathrooms organic yet stylish feel is due to the use of copper, brushed nickel, blue and golden tones throughout.

New Roots

New Roots is a multi-cook kitchen designed for families that need a fresh start in a safe environment. Enchanted Makeovers is looking for a

kitchen design that is supportive and inspirational for women and their children. Plenty of storage and counter space for the occupants

of the home is an important requirement for this kitchen. The kitchen has unique storage items such as a pull-out divider tray for

cooking sheets and muffin tins, large pots and pans pull-out, a two tiered cutlery divider with seven sections on each tier, and sink base

cabinet with accessories such as stainless steel tilt-out trays and plastic bag storage. A large pantry, a beverage refrigerator, and

refrigerator/freezer combination drawers adds extra space that is easy for children to access. Stainless steel appliances give a new feeling to

the space, like the new start these women and their families are searching for. The large main refrigerator has a water/ice dispenser,

and adjustable shelves for convenience. The induction cooktop offers safety features for children with the burners only being hot when it comes in contact with other metal. A lower kitchen counter seating

area was put in for morning breakfasts and homework. A wall designated for chalk board paint entertains as well as keeps families on

schedule with day to day activities. Maple Mocha glazed Waypoint cabinetry keeps the kitchen warm and inviting. Dark crown molding

and baseboards makes the kitchen more traditional, keeping it in style with the original architecture of the home. White quartz countertops keep the kitchen light. Tempered glass over fabric creates a unique

backsplash. To brighten up the room vivid green paint is used on the wall. Cork flooring is comfortable, eco-friendly and durable. Glossy glass backsplash tiles add extra shine to the kitchen. This kitchen’s transitional and fun style will brighten the spirits of these families

needing new roots.
