WHIRLPOOL-VANITY area in Master Bathroom
We always orient an oversize tub to mountain views and provide a
separate vanity for each of the owners, with plenty of windows with
transoms for lots of natural light. |
 |
ShowersSHOWERS
typically are tumbled marble or soapstone tiles with decorative
textured bands. Also, we like to design-in tiled seats. (call and
ask us why). We also specify a type of setting bed and grout THAT
WILL NOT SUPPORT MILDEW AND MOLD GROWTH!
Contact
us for more information. We design our homes and projects to
be as maintenance-free as possible. |

design kitchen cabinets, hutches, bed frames, grandfather clocks,
tables, chairs, sideboards, log furnishings and other items of a

project. A design sketch of one of our custom Arts & Crafts
hutches shown to left. |

MERRY SELECTS UNIQUE MOUNTAIN-STYLE
FURNITURE WITH DISTINCTIONTo
reflect your good taste. Here is one example of a special Mansion
Bed with illuminated mantel. This work of art is made of birch
solids, birch and cherry veneers, burl and walnut inlays. The lights
in the underside of the mantel not only offer function lighting for
bedtime reading, they also add rich mood lighting to your bedroom
suite. We can have your wall switch activate these lights in your
Rand Soellner Architect mountain home. |
 |
Here
is an Arched-back Lodge bed of Merry's choosing that possesses a
mountain flair with class. The wormy cherry finish has a rich luster
that evokes feelings of warm quilts on a Winter's night and
firelight flickering off the wood ceiling in a Rand Soellner
Architect lodge-style home. |
 |
This
is one of Merry's favorites: a Canopy-Frame Arched-Back Mansion Bed
with cerejeira veneers, all hardwood solids, rosette accents, crown
molding and round tapered posts. |

CUSTOM STAINED GLASSMerry
Soellner has her own glass studio as part of the Rand Soellner
Architect operation. This allows her to design and fabricate unique
pieces of stained glass for insertion into your cabinetry faces,
doors and door sidelights, transoms and speciality windows. |

MERRY SOELLNER SELECTING GRANITE SLABSIn
the granite capital of the world. Here, Merry examines the fine
differences between a Paradiso Classico slab vrs. a Creama Bordeaux
slab for discriminating clients. Ultimately, she decides on the
darker Paradiso slab as it picks up more consistently the cherry
cabinet color in the Kitchen. Merry has access to the world's finest
granite and can assist you with your selections as well. |
