Get ready for an over-share. I apologize in advance for sharing way too many pics and details in this post but I am really excited about it. I have been working on the design for a custom home in
Tampa, FL while living in Georgia and finally got to visit the site last weekend to see the progress. I had not been since the tile, cabinets and a few other major details had gone in so I was a little nervous. I had seen them all via cell phone pics but it just isn't the same. Thankfully, everything looks AMAZING and it is all coming together perfectly. We are only a few weeks out from the final touches so better pictures will be coming shortly but for now here are some of the progress pictures...

My only contribution to the exterior was the lighting but I had to share because I love the nautical style wall sconce for this lake front home, especially against the brick. |
Pictures just don't do these rustic Alder wood cabinets justice. They turned out beautiful thanks to the experts at
Park Avenue Designs. (Back splash still to come.)
The pool bath will have a gorgeous copper vessel sink that brings out the copper details in the granite from
Custom Marble Works.

Love the cabinet hardware throughout that was chosen by Jeff at Park Avenue. |
In LOVE with the brick wall that carries from the kitchen into the breakfast area. We also tied the two areas together with the lighting. Hard to tell with the protective plastic but the pendants and chandeliers all have 'orb' details to tie them together. Lighting doesn't necessarily have to be from the same collection or even the same finish but I like to find one element that ties the different pieces together. This is a very open concept home so it works well to have a detail that unites the different lighting elements in a subtle way.
I can not wait to unwrap these beautiful Restoration Hardware fixtures in the foyer and dining room. Again, these two spaces are open to each other so we chose something that worked together. Normally, I would have gone with even more contrast between the two fixtures but the homeowners were in love with the iron orbs so we found a way to work them both in. She loves the glitz of the crystal and he loves the masculine iron work so the dining fixture was a great for both. I had a few skeptics about the over-sized fixtures but they are perfect for the space!!
