Creating wow factor for HGTV's Sabrina and Scott McGillivray

Working with California Closets design consultant Cassandra Reinthaler, the couple carefully considered every detail of their space. Taking their unique objectives into account, Cassandra incorporated varying materials and bold accents to add depth, richness and interest throughout. The design featured distinct areas to support a variety of the couple's activities, while a stunning center island created a common focal point. To seamlessly integrate the couple’s select statement pieces, such as Sabrina’s gold vanity, a bench was built on either side of the vanity that doubled as both inviting seating for the couple's daughters and extra storage. Cassandra also addressed Scott’s storage needs with custom cabinetry around the windows, as well as Sabrina’s love for accessories with a dedicated wall where she could beautifully display her collections of shoes, bags, scarves and jewelry. Finally, accent lighting was strategically incorporated to offer visual impact and illuminate the couple’s statement display areas.
