How DKOR Interiors approached a full <\/span>condo<\/span> renovation at One Paraiso, Downtown Miami, including one of its most defining architectural conditions: the open bathroom in the luxury master suite.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The master suite at this One Paraiso residence featured an open bathroom concept. Specifically, a glass panel was the only divider between the bedroom and the shower.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The owners decided to keep this open layout. In addition, they wanted to preserve the original marble finishes. However, the initial design felt cold and disconnected. The original dark wood vanity clashed with glossy marble surfaces. Consequently, the suite lacked the warm, hotel-quality atmosphere the owners envisioned.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Every project begins with clear boundaries. Specifically, we must identify what stays, what changes, and how to reach the client\u2019s goal. In this residence, the layout and marble remained fixed. Therefore, our goal focused on creating warmth, continuity, and quiet luxury. Here is how the DKOR team achieved that balance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n First, our team removed the dark wood vanity. Replacing it with a warm oak finish immediately changed the room\u2019s temperature. Consequently, this new wood finish created a strong foundation for the rest of the suite.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n From that point forward, warm oak became our primary connective thread. We incorporated oak in the vanity, the bed soffit, and custom millwork throughout the room. In addition, we modified surrounding design elements to create a cohesive aesthetic.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Ultimately, fixed elements should not dictate every choice. Instead, identify flexible components first and start your transformation there.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Marble feels precise, cool, and architectural. However, adding more hard surfaces would only worsen the chill. Instead, our team introduced rich, organic textures.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nDecision 1: Establish What Changes First<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Decision 2: Let Texture Make The Connection<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
