Previously a bland cookie-cutter condo, we took down walls to create a contemporary open floor plan and added coffered ceilings with recessed lighting, punctuated by the gray ceiling that coordinates with the fabrics . The curved soffit echoes the shape of the kitchen island nearby and creates a lighted pathway down the corridor. Motorized shades of sheer and solid fabric can be closed to protect furniture from sun fading or opened to any point, exposing a stunning ocean view.
