The nautical theme is captured through the design, colors and architectural details of Unit J model at Port 121 along the scenic Seabridge Marina. These elements work well together in establishing a sense of place.
"The color scheme — the beautiful turquoise, chocolates, whites and linen — was driven by the beautiful hues and blues of the water in the community," says Kimberly Sandoval, senior associate with CDC Designs and lead designer on the project. "We had the dark espresso woods to keep it rich and very warm and inviting."
The high volume ceilings, paneling detail on the walls, and floor to second floor ceiling drapery all create a certain "wow factor." Sandoval says traffic has been good and the model has been well received.
"The interior merchandising really worked well with that unique architecture," she says.
