The Interior Design of a Vacation Home
at Ocean Reef Club with a
Modern British Colonial Decor
I would like to share with you the transformation of this Ocean Reef Club vacation home, whereas the client’s vision was a Modern British Colonial Decor
with influences from the Bahamian Islands
One day I received a call from a woman named Carmen, telling me that she had just purchased a condo at Ocean Reef Club and was looking for an Interior Decorator - I was immediately attracted to her sweet voice. She sounded around 16 but assured me that she was a grandmother and we were both eggar to meet each other. So as I was walking down the hallway, she was there waiting for me with a warm hug. By the end of our meeting, she gave me a deposit, and needless to say, and we had a Karmic Connection.
Modern Coastal & Colorful
Interior Design Style
As with most of my clients, Carmen was very trusting, and I told her that after my years of doing interior design at Ocean Reef Club and having grown up in Fort Lauderdale, I love the Modern Coastal Beach style of interior design.
Looking out over the ocean, I could not help but be inspired to use one of my favorite color combinations taken from nature: sandy beige, aqua blue, and bright coral. With this color combination and Coastal Beach look - I love to use silver as an accent color; I relate it to the sun’s reflection off the ocean.

Sometimes I have to tell a client, "When one item we want is not available, the Universe will bring us a better option." For example, I wanted to use this shell-encrusted entry table with its matching mirror and elegant scrolls covered in shells, but it was too tall.
UGGGG! I was so disappointed. Soon after, I just found a newly opened furniture distributor, and in their backroom, I found the natural wood table base and artwork. The table has a natural tree root that is perfectly smooth with a translucent blue glaze finish. The artwork is an oil painting but what makes this piece magnificent is its grande metal frame with sculptural shells, coral, and sea urchins. The table and the art balance each out beautifully, and please note: not with an inch to spare.
Thank You Universe

Simple Coastal Kitchen Remodel
For a quick kitchen remodel my general contractor added bead-board to the base cabinets and tray ceiling, Afterwards, we painted the kitchen cabinets and ceiling in a warm white to match all of the new baseboards.

British Colonial - Bahamas Style Master Bedroom
I love this Modern British Colonial Style Bamboo four-poster bed with its white gauze side panels that are reminisced of mosquito netting. The aqua and green combination lends its self to the colorful Bahamas / Caribbean feeling all setting on the driftwood like tile flooring throughout.
Modern Coastal Bedroom
Our Modern Coastal bedroom features a whimsical fabric that is reminiscent of Old Florida. I loved using the coral from the fabric and rug and placed it on the ceiling -
