The Eclectic Cottage Project was a major residential renovation that reimagined the heart of the home through thoughtful planning and bold design decisions. What began as a request for cosmetic updates evolved into a full transformation, including relocating the kitchen from the front of the house to the back and completely gutting the living areas, kitchen, and two bathrooms. The design balances layered color, personality, and functionality, with multiple iterations leading to a collaborative final palette that feels both expressive and cohesive. Custom details elevate the space, from hand-painted tile behind the stove to a furniture-style kitchen island carefully engineered to conceal wiring for a microwave drawer. An appliance garage with a hidden, sliding door adds both charm and practicality. This renovation reflects our approach to interior design: thoughtful risk-taking, attention to detail, and creating homes that feel personal, lived-in, and deeply considered.
