Large rectangular limestone tiles are used in a horizontal layout and minimal grout lines give a sense of spaciousness. The size, shape and spacing of the tiles are designed to be proportional with other elements. Macore wood cabinetry in warm tones and vertical grain was selected to strongly contrast with the cool tones in the tile. Glass in the tall cabinets is inset with soji paper alluding to pacific rim influences that are carried throughout the condo. A new skylight with clean lines was added. The final result is a subtle, elegant and tranquil space with the luxury of a resort spa. Photo-David Livingston
