Mix and match: paint and tile help take our remodel from glum to glam

KITCHEN A bow to the subtle hues of the home's 1920s origins, the pale green upper cabinets and back-splash tile set off the cool Hawaiian blue granite counters, the warm tones of the mahogany cabinets, and Dylan Gold's reclaimed-wood island.

MASTER BATH An iridescent blend of glass, marble, and metal evokes old Hollywood style. The vanity wall is clad with azure blue glass tile--touched with flecks of white--for a watery feel. Fixtures and sinks by Kohler.

HOME OFFICE Shades of green are used to calm down warmer colors throughout the home. Here, the light sage on the walls does the trick (those maps are actually printed onto the cork of the bulletin boards).
