The Sassy Sip

This home in Delray Beach, Florida, had already seen some remodeling, but the clients were still not fully satisfied. They had invested in a stunning spiral staircase, only to realize that the new layout made it the main focal point upon entering the home—blocking the beautiful view of their backyard. Additionally, as passionate entertainers, they were frustrated by the cramped kitchen that forced guests to gather in the same small space. They didn’t know how to create a better flow for entertaining, but they knew they needed a solution.

 

We got to work by rethinking the layout to enhance both functionality and design. First, we moved the staircase to open up the view of the backyard, improving the flow of the space. In the area where the staircase once stood, we designed a striking custom bar that would become the centerpiece of the room. The bar was outfitted with a liquor tap hookup, wine cooler drawers, and sleek storage for their favorite drinks. We didn’t want this to be just any bar, so we incorporated black tile with subtle gold accents that rise up the wall, paired with custom lacquer shelving with under-cabinet lighting. To add a touch of drama, we extended the shelving only on the corner, creating a beautiful focal point that draws the eye.

​

Strategically placed near the back slider, the bar became the perfect space for both indoor and outdoor entertaining, seamlessly connecting with the pool area. On the opposite side, we installed floating stairs, offering a minimalistic and modern backdrop to the bold new bar design.

​

The result was a home that now worked for the family’s lifestyle, with plenty of space to entertain while still allowing them to enjoy their stunning backyard view. The clients were beyond thrilled with the transformation, even telling us that their only complaint now was that they couldn’t get their guests to leave! They were so happy with the project that they created a glowing testimonial video for us, sharing their excitement about their new space.

At the time, our company was known as Dazzle, and we’re so grateful to have been part of this wonderful project. Since then, we’ve rebranded, but the joy of helping clients like these create homes they truly love remains at the heart of everything we do.
