Our Radical East Hampton Kitchen and Bath Transformation
The transformation of this young couple's kitchen and bathrooms in East Hampton is a remarkable before-and-after story. Partnering with the amazing team at FD Building Co., we set out to craft a space that reflects our clients’ love for surfing, nature…and their adorable dog.
A Total Kitchen Redesign
Initially, the kitchen was dark, with outdated cabinetry and an impractical layout that housed the washer and dryer, detracting from the overall functionality. The finishes, appliances and lighting were in desperate need of an upgrade.

By opening up the space and introducing classic, creamy inset cabinets by Babylon Cabinet Co., paired with brass accents, we created an inviting area that emphasizes brightness and warmth. We installed a soffit above the upper cabinets to create a more intentional, built-in effect, selected quartz countertops with soft veining, and custom panel-front appliances
The result is a blend of modern convenience and timeless elegance, complete with plenty of storage for the couple's active lifestyle.

Her Bathroom: From Dingy to Sophisticated
In the bathrooms, we addressed the inefficiencies head-on. The wife's bathroom underwent a sweeping redesign, transforming it from a dark and enclosed space into a bright and sophisticated sanctuary.
It features an elegant glass shower enclosure by GCS Glass & Mirror, complemented by creamy tiles, marble mosaic flooring, and brushed brass accents. A custom Nordic white oak vanity by Willow Bath & Vanity adds a warm and textural feel to the space.
The overall effect is both feminine and timeless, creating a serene retreat.

His Bathroom: From Drab to Zen
The husband's existing bathroom was indeed a significant challenge - small, poorly lit, and with minimal area for effective storage.
We completely overhauled this confined space into a serene, Zen-like retreat featuring elegant wood-textured porcelain tiles, sleek black accents, and a carefully designed built-in shelf. This deliberate approach allowed us to create a masculine aesthetic, as well as an efficient bathroom that promotes relaxation and well-being.

The Power of Teamwork
The power of teamwork is the foundation of every successful renovation. From the start, we collaborated closely with our clients to fully understand their goals and vision. Every detail in this project was curated to make the home feel personal and welcoming, balancing sophistication and functionality.
Throughout the process, we worked hand in hand with the build team at FD Building, maintaining clear communication and problem-solving together to ensure quality craftsmanship and seamless execution. This synergy between planning, client collaboration, and teamwork with the builders is what allowed us to radically transform this project into a harmonious balance of creativity and practicality.
