Master Suite Demo

Talk about a clean slate! Before I show you the photo of our blank canvas, let me take you on a quick walk thru of our potential master suite.

Jason and I first turned down the hallway which lead to the master bedroom and at first we were greeted with a groovy room from the 70’s. Let’s maybe call it a den. I’m sure the extreme orange and brown shag carpet and interesting salon style shutters were in style at some point but we had no words – just laughs.

After laughing and lots of jokes we decided to keep going and was greeted with two small closets. Now, most of you know I have a shopping problem – not Jason. These little closets will not do. Not even for Jason.

After the closets, we walked into the bedroom and looked out the windows and once again saw the view. AMAZING! But in the corner of the room we saw an iron spiral staircase. Right away we had to see where the staircase lead to. As we slowly walked down the stairs we came to an office. Jason does tend to work a lot at home, which has never bothered me, but the easy access to his office from the bedroom. PASS! Immediately, the staircase has to go. Are we going to reuse it? Possibly but my design brain isn’t there yet.

After being side tracked, we headed back up the stairs so we could find the master bathroom. To our surprise the bathroom was updated but it was the size of a powder room with no shower. At this point, we knew we had to demo the entire area, start with a big rectangle and design the space into three areas: walk-in closet, bedroom and a bathroom.

That is where we are today. A big open space and a lot of possibilities. Now it’s time to put pencil to graph paper and start designing.
