Modern Master
Bring much-needed solace to the master bedroom with slumber-inspired additions and tech-savvy touches.
COLOR EDIT
When bright turquoise proved to be too much for this small Palm Beach guest bedroom, Angela Reynolds of Angela Reynolds Design selected a breezy palette of sands and shell pink to give it a dose of femininity. Grasscloth wallpaper and custom Kravet curtains stamped with a light palm leaf print adorn the walls and windows. Linen-wrapped nightstands bookend a Thibaut bed upholstered in a rose-colored fabric and the rattan settee stands ready for day-weary visitors; angelareynolds.com

THINK OUT OF THE OX
New paint and upholstery can keep old furniture relevant. At Lili Batista’s quirky West Palm Beach furniture store, The Painted Ox, she and her team can reimagine any piece of furniture, regardless of its state of condition or size. She’s also known for her “out-of-the-ox” (a term she coined) creations, like this MacKenzie-Childs-inspired seat realized from four separate fabrics and colorful piping; thepaintedox.com
DREAM WEAVER
Krista Watterworth Alterman of Krista + Home enlivened this dreamy Tequesta master bedroom with blue and gray hues that create a nexus between the home’s exterior spaces and panoramic vistas of the Loxahatchee River beyond. Walls were bathed in Sherwin Williams Stonington Gray paint, and white shiplap on the vaulted ceilings guide eyes heavenward. Wood accents and biscuit-colored hemp poufs from Uttermost balance out the sedative setting; kristahome.com

PINEAPPLE EXPRESS
Nestled inside the Palm Beach Hotel Condominium is a pint-sized vacation rental named “The Pineapple Pad” that houses a bedroom, living room and kitchenette. Owned by Palm Beach Lately’s Beth Aschenbach and Danielle Norcross, the sisters decorated it with tropical touches like rattan, brass and pineapples, naturally. In the bath, they traded the tub for a contemporary glassed-in shower, and walls were covered with subway tiles and—what else?—an eco-friendly wallpaper from Wallshoppe with vertical rows of pineapples; palmbeachlately.com

SURF’S UP
When Waterview Kitchens’ Jim and Patty Anderson were tasked with dreaming up a kitchen for their clients, the proprietors of Blueline Surf & Paddle Co., they chose the ocean’s cerulean tint as their muse. The kitchen’s oversized island, which also serves as a gathering spot for the couple’s children and golden retriever, was painted denim blue and crowned with a Calacatta marble countertop. Sand-colored oak floors, cloud-white cabinetry and, the pièce de résistance, a wall-mounted surfboard, work collectively to reflect the family’s “life-is-a-beach” mantra; waterviewkitchens.com

FLAMINGO CROSSING
Cynthia Thomas of Cynthia Thomas Interiors knows that a single statement piece can trigger a design tsunami. For this Palm Beach island living room, Thomas used the client’s recently acquired Scott Kelley watercolor as her guide. The result was a sun-dappled space brimming with earthy tones and punches of tangerine, teal and antiqued gold. Multiple reclining options, such as a Milano sofa in a sand linen with Scalamandre accent pillows and a pair of velvety Wales Regency side chairs, provide ample spots to drink in the artwork and stellar views of the Brazilian Docks; cynthiathomasinteriors.com
