Here’s a peek at the inspiration behind our new living room color.

The goal was for it to be primarily an evening retreat space - cosy, moody and have some old world charm. I drew inspiration from sailing ships, specifically tan bark sails and the corroded patina of salt worn hardware. I wanted a color that would go beautifully with this handmade sea foam sailboat we have and I love how sea foam green complements this deep aubergine.

This was a difficult color to select because it interacts directly with three other spaces in our house - the bathroom (green & blue), the staircase (taupe) and the dining room (white with red accents). We wanted a contrast between our brighter dining & kitchen space, and something that complemented the bathroom.

We had a number of samples to choose from and ultimately went with Preference Red paired with Green Blue on the mantle and a warm Joa’s white for the trim.

We are so pleased, the color is gorgeous, the Farrow and Ball paint has an intense depth of color, and the shade changes with the light throughout the day from a warm deep red to a cooler brighter purple brown.

We are taking on small-medium sized home renovation projects in the Midcoast in 2026! We’re offering interior design & general carpentry as a Design/Build team and we’re booking projects in the new year now.

Here’s some process shots of our bathroom renovation. This project was a full gut with the exception of keeping the original cast iron bathtub, exposing and finishing the original wood floors and maintaining some of the original trim. The layout needed to accommodate adding a bay changing table/ dresser with the relocation of the sink, and the addition of a stacking washer/dryer unit in the closet. The shower was fully retiled, replumbed, and a nook shelf was added. We designed and built a shaker peg rail, shelf and paneling. The closet door was removed and replaced with a curtain for easy access and ventilation for the washer/dryer and to soften the space. The oversized utility sink was reclaimed and adds some charm. The woodwork and paneling are painted in Caulk Green for an earthy and clean calm, paired with Blue-Green painted floors and Pointing on the walls. We sourced a beautiful antique marble top vanity that fits the space nicely and has counter space and storage.

After adding a baby, who is now a toddler to our family, this has became a hardworking room and the functionality upgrades to the space cannot be understated. Kids clothes and diapers are stored in the dresser, plus easy access to laundry is a great feature. We also included allocated space for kitty litter and a step stool at the sink.

We’d love to help you plan and build out your unique space to bring some added beauty and functionality to your home!
