Lovelace Designers Karen Kerns and Lindsay Miller recently completed a coastal renovation in Destin’s Silver Beach Towers Condominium. The Dallas, Texas based clients purchased the 3 bedroom, 3 bath unit with the intent of making it an eventual retirement oasis. They hired Connick Builders to take the unit down to the bare bones and refresh all architectural and interior fixtures and finishes. Lindsay and Karen worked with the client to select new cabinetry, countertops, decorative tile, flooring, light fixtures and furniture.

The entry hallway sets the tone for the rest of the unit. From the wood tile flooring to the rustic light fixture, you get a warm and cozy feel from the moment you enter.

The hallway opens up to the open living/dining/kitchen floor plan. The designer

s chose a sectional and recliner for optimal seating in the living room with a wallpaper lined built-in to house the TV. The dining table expands to seat 6. The Kitchen was updated with lighter cabinets, reflective glass tile backsplash, and jute sconces. The ceiling and bar front is done in a painted pecky cypress detail.

The master bedroom was a combination of design styles marrying the husbands’ more traditional rustic and the wifes’ coastal elegant design styles. Shutters and linen draperies frame the gulf-front floor to ceiling windows.
