When clients Kindsey and Conor said they wanted a wine cellar in their modern coastal living room, we knew this was going to be one epic home design! From the wine display to the cozy, layered upholstery to the architectural lighting, I am so so happy with how the Sarasota Sunset living room and entryway turned out!

Modern Foyer Design
The Sarasota Sunset foyer makes such a statement upon entry! An oversized, arched, black iron door opens to and artfully designed vignette. The three-tier chandelier feels both architectural yet organic, woven with bone-colored natural beads. We complemented the piece with a geometric grid sideboard and minimalist bar-hung iron mirror.
We were intentional about selecting one-of-a-kind artwork for this client's home – the easiest (and perhaps most fun) way to create a unique home design. We commissioned artist Lauren Williams to create the textile art you see hanging above the vintage farm bench, and we could not be happier with the end result!

Custom Glass Wine Cellar
Upon entering the Sarasota, Florida home, guests are immediately greeted with the most eye-catching display – the Pentecost-Chadwick's personal wine collection – all on display in a custom designed glass wine cellar.

This custom wine cellar design was so fun to collaborate on! The built-in shelving was a must so that the bar and glassware could could live beneath the hanging wine rack. Hanging wine glass holders were added beneath the wine rack for more storage.

My favorite detail from this space is the leather sleeve wine rack providing a vintage view to the side of the built-ins. We loved the idea of having special bottles displayed in a unique way, and this artful wine rack instantly elevated the little space.

Rustic Coastal Living Room Design
The Sarasota Sunset living room is layered in the coziest upholstery textures! We've got leather recliners (a standard request from our male clients, Conor included), bouclé ottomans, and grey linen sofas all surrounding a custom stripe ottoman. This cozy setting comes with a clear view of the Manatee River, right outside this luxury Florida home. To say the views are stunning is an understatement!

A unique design decision we took was keeping the built-in bookcases flush with the walls. The minimalist look felt so right in this space that was overflowing with texture, and the lines it created pair well the with the strong lines in the black grid pane windows and architectural lighting. Picture lights with a more modern rectangular backplate were hung above to complement.

Plaid Stair Runner
Before I sign off for the day, I have to call attention to the tartan plaid stair runner! It's just TOO GOOD! And, it's such a beautiful complement to the powder bath's cloud printed wallpaper.
Plaid is my new favorite thing! Just wait until you see Project Black Oak – the entire project is covered in this pattern.

The Sarasota sunset coastal living room design looks beautiful and relaxing. I like how the colors and layout create a calm and modern atmosphere. During a very busy semester, I wanted to pay someone to do my IT assignment for me when I had too many deadlines to handle at once. That helped me free some time to explore home design ideas and inspiration. A well-designed space can really change the feeling of a home.
I really loved how this reveal captures the warmth and ease of modern coastal living, especially the way light and texture seem to breathe life into the space. Seeing those layers come together made me think of times I scrambled to pull everything into place, even cheap last munite assignment help UK popping into my head as a reminder of the relief that comes from thoughtful timing and cohesion.
Reading through the Sarasota Sunset: Modern Coastal Living Room & Entry Reveal really struck a chord with me as someone who’s currently a PhD student juggling rigorous research with a part-time job at Affordable Assignments and assisting students in their academic work, I found myself thinking about how our environments deeply influence our mood, cognition, and even productivity. I’ve always had a deep interest in helping others because in my college days I suffered a lot from these types of hustles; being really conscious about my studies and others’ challenges made me appreciate spaces that feel calming, inspiring, and thoughtfully designed, much like what you’ve shared here. It’s incredible how a well-curated room can not only reflect a coastal lifestyle but…
Absolutely stunning transformation! The blend of rustic modern elements with coastal accents creates a serene and inviting atmosphere. The thoughtful design choices, from the custom cabinetry to the carefully curated lighting, truly elevate the space. It's evident that every detail was considered to enhance both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
