Yesterday, Steve and I visited the site of our clients' Spanish style home. I thought you might enjoy coming along...
As I walk up to the house, I admire the rustic Santa Barbara Sandstone wall that surrounds the arched garage doors.
The iron balcony above the entry peaks around the corner.
The iron work adds beautiful detailing to the house.
I love the chalky neutral color palette! The pale gray green trim color is lovely.
The other side of the front facade is a great view of the entry turret.
A view of the side of the house with its Spanish style chimney and tiled window overhangs.
The texture and color of the roof tiles add warmth and depth to the exterior.
Another iron balcony is found on the back of the house off of the Master bedroom.
We enter through the turret...
I love all of the iron detailing in the house. The front door is beautiful!
The pattern of the terra cotta floor in the entry reflects the circular shape of the entry.
The sculptural stairway sweeps overhead.
At the back of the entry, an impressive arched hallway leads to the Living Room.
The coffered ceiling adds another level of detail to this space.
From the entry, we have a view of the spacious Family Room at the back of the house.
The wood beams have been placed in the ceiling.
We are here today to select a finish for the beams.
I love the grayed out finish of the beam sample. It looks like aged wood...
and works wonderfully with the rest of the color palette for the house.
We walk down the hallway towards the light filled back stairway.
For the first time, I view the wall of Arabesque tiles installed on the back wall of the Powder Room.
The slight shimmer of the tiles adds elegance to the formal Powder Room.
The Kitchen is waiting for its cabinetry to be installed. The plaster hood will make the stove a focal point in the space.
A small arched hallway connects the Kitchen to the Family Room.
Located in this hallway, is the more casual Powder Room. The decorative tile wainscott is installed flush with the wall.
Sunlight floods the Upstairs' landing through a large sky light. White Oak floors add warmth through out the house.
The Master Bathroom has a neutral color palette. The mosaic tile on the back of the shower adds texture and detail.
I hope you enjoyed visiting our clients' beautiful home with us!
Thank you to our wonderful clients for allowing us to share their home with you!
