10+ A CONTEMPORARY SOUTHERN HOME IN CHARLESTON, SC

10+ A CONTEMPORARY SOUTHERN HOME IN CHARLESTON, SC - When the designer was approached by her clients – both executives of a luxury boat company called Scout Boats and their three lively boys – the process of constructing the home was already mid-way through. “The homeowners wanted an interesting space but also something they wouldn’t get tired of,” Lauren said. “They didn’t want something that felt too traditional but also wanted to a good mix of old and new.” Evidence of that can be seen in the open concept living, dining and kitchen area. A transitional hood and shaker cabinets in the kitchen communicate that classic feel that the homeowners wanted, while the bold tiled backsplash by Bedrosians, as well as the double height island with gray leather stools and chairs, denote a more modern concept. “We incorporated a thoughtful mix of metals throughout the house to keep things fresh and used a few pops of blues and grays in cabinetry as a nod to the coastal setting,” the designer shared. “We see open concept a lot these days, and you can expect a lot of the same look,” said the project’s photographer Andrea Kinnear. “Lauren created a space that is functional and beautiful. The multiple counter/seating areas meant that she could select really interesting seating. At the high top island, you see these gorgeous grey leather chairs – leather in the kitchen is amazing!”
