Nestled on Sanctuary - chagrin falls

This large-scale remodel called for a thoughtful blend of architectural vision and design precision. Our team worked closely with Otero Signature Homes to reconfigure the main floor layout—merging the kitchen and breakfast room into one cohesive hub anchored by a curved porcelain island and custom integrated banquette. Rounded forms became a unifying element, appearing in arched openings, sculptural stair details, and subtle curves across furniture and fixtures. Elevated materiality—from 2cm full-height quartz backsplash to a pewter and brass range hood—was balanced by approachable textures and layered lighting. Every cabinet was customized to meet the client’s daily needs, while dramatic moments like the color-washed hearth room, brass-inlaid dry bar, and statement egg-blue porcelain shower brought bold, personal flair. Nestled on Sanctuary is a celebration of thoughtful transformation—where every detail is rooted in rhythm, reflection, and refined comfort.

our approach

After 18 years in the same home, the clients behind Nestled on Sanctuary were ready for a transformation—one that honored their deep connection to the space while bringing in a fresh perspective and elevated livability. The goal was to reimagine their Mediterranean-style home with an airy, modern sensibility, while layering in eclectic details and luxurious finishes that felt true to their personality. With a love for hosting, they envisioned intimate seating areas, custom craftsmanship, and curated touches throughout—from Ralph Lauren sconces in the kitchen to boutique hotel-inspired guest suites upstairs. Every space was designed to feel inviting and lived-in, with subtle elegance and softness woven into every corner.
