Diary of an Interior Designer: Cape Cod Seaside Home, Master Bedroom Suite
May 14 2013 ·0The Master Bedroom Suite, or Owner’s Retreat, is an increasingly popular space to lavish fabulous design on. To that point, Master Bedrooms are always among the most popular spaces in a Show House and clients are eager to have an interior designer work their magic in this space. The owners of this home were no exception.
This international couple wanted a soothing area away from the rest of the bedrooms. Well located on the first floor, just steps to the pool and with an inspiring ocean view, we had an ideal space to work with…
Down to the Wire: Teenage Domain Update
Aug 28 2012 ·0Our Teenage Domain project is humming right along but the deadline for completion is fast approaching. I promised the family (and myself) that we would be finished by the first day of school ~ which is next week! As with any construction project, we’ve had our share of hiccups: tile quantities that were 1 box short, the pocket door that would not accommodate the light fixtures because of the molly bolts (are they really named after a girl?? ), juggling schedules due to summer vacations. With all that, we are now in the homestretch with just a few days of work remaining. I truly believe my clients’ (bless them) patience will be beautifully rewarded with a stunning new space for their son.
Without further ado, let’s take a peek at some of the current progress.
This is the focal wall in the bathroom ~ this tile is actually a mix of matte and polished finishes. In the light it is just lovely, creating the illusion of depth and movement.
Here is a close up shot of the tile. There are so many colors in this grey/blue palette, it really is glorious.
The floor is a grey porcelain tile in a generous 12″x 24″ size. The larger size actually visually expands this small space and creates interest.
This same tile is going to be used on the side walls of the shower. The inside of the shower, including the focal wall, will be visible through the glass shower door providing a pleasant vista for the young man who will be inhabiting this space. The overall look will be sophisticated and masculine.
In addition to all of the fabulous tile in the space, we are using a trio of Benjamin Moore paint colors in the bathroom. The vanity color is Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray:
The walls will be painted Benjamin Moore Wickham Gray:
I love adding a subtle color on the ceiling, here we will be going with a 50% color concentration of Benjamin Moore Woodlawn Blue:
Finishing off the space will be Benjamin Moore Super White trim.
I am so anxious to see everything come together, it won’t be long now!
Speaking of anxiously awaiting something, next week at this time I’ll be packing my bags for New York and the events of Brizo Fashion Week with Jason Wu ~ can’t wait!

Pamela's Posh Picks: 50 Shades of Grey
Jun 29 2012 ·0I’ll bet that got your attention!?
I’m such a tease because really, my Posh Picks for this week are 5 shades of gray…paint!
We will be using all 5 of these gray paint colors in the teenage boy bedroom project I’m currently working on. Take a look…
The main bedroom color is from the Sherwin Williams Faux Metallic Impressions Collections: Rare Gray Metallic:
I always paint the ceiling a color, it is one of my signature design elements. The ceiling in the bedroom will be Benjamin Moore Wickham Gray:
The bathroom walls will be Benjamin Moore Gray Owl:
The ceiling in the bathroom will also be Benjamin Moore Wickham Gray:
The trim will feature Benjamin Moore White Wisp:
The subtle differences between the paint colors will serve to both unify and enliven the space. I can’t wait to see these colors in action!
Last but not least, this week’s petite oil painting, also featuring shades of gray (and white and green…)
I’d love to hear your thoughts…and your book reviews!

Pamela
