Wednesday Woodworks - Somerset doors

TC Millwork recently completed eight pairs of African mahogany exterior doors for the beautiful Somerset resort on Grace Bay.  

Wednesday Woodworks - Saphire Sunsets

Here are the professional images by Steve Passmore of Provo Pictures from Saphire Sunset Villa in beautiful Chalk Sound.   TC Millwork completed this extensive renovation just before the New Year. You may read more about this incredible makeover here.

As much as our company is known for it's beautiful wood works, these photos are a testament to the competence of our construction.  The pool and patio areas above, designed by Coast Architects, were a completely new addition to the well located Sopadilla beach front home.

Wednesday Woodworks - Fleur de Lys Villas Fourth Bath

On deadline for the first of February, the fourth bathroom at Fleur de Lys Villa was complete!   After converting the pool house/art studio to an additional bedroom last September, we quickly realised how beneficial a fourth bathroom would be to our guests.  After gathering a few indoor/outdoor bath inspirations we quickly set to work the first week of January.  The new bath features a large terrazzo shower, louvered doors and back wall for breeze and ventilation, bright white open rafter roof and tongue and grooved side walls, and a few charming details such as below to create the cottage like ambiance.

Here are a few photos below while the bath was in progress.

Modifying the existing native stone path to curve to the new doorway.

Painted frame ready for the louver doors and panels, floor ready to be tiled.

Pebble stones collected from the beach, laid out in design for the base of the terrazzo shower.

Big thanks to the TC Millwork team for all their hard work to complete this lovely bath in a very short four weeks!  Bravo everyone!

Wednesday Woodworks - Indoor/Outdoor Bathroom Inspirations

Today we broke ground on a fourth bathroom for the Cotton Cottage at fleur de lys villa.  This was a project we had been considering for quite some time so are thrilled to put the plan into motion.  The layout will resemble the above image, a long room that will feel like a sun room; an indoor extension of the outdoors, a bright and airy space full of sunshine.

The room will feature large doors at either end that will open to already existing curved native stone paths wrapping around the cottage to the pool.

As much as we would absolutely adore a lovely tub like in the above images,

we will most likely keep it simple with a shower framed in the center of the fully louvered back wall.  Stay posted for before and after images to come!

Wednesday Woodworks - Kitchen Refinish

Kitchen Before

TC Millwork has been hard at work on a few varied projects but only one is ready to share today.  This dark kitchen was a sore spot on an otherwise lofty and light beach side penthouse.  It was well built and had lovely details, it just needed a facelift to take it from dreary to dreamy.

We love the new contrast of the dark counter tops to the creamy kitchen!

Perhaps you would prefer to take your time on a major makeover project like this before-after-lofty-living-room with dark hardwood floors, trim, and faux ceiling beams, with just a touch of goth influence in the black iron chandelier.

Wednesday Woodworks - Bedrooms

Cozy and comfortable woodworks are a perfect accessory to any bedroom.  Here are a few of our current inspirations:

Adore this divine mix of rustic and refined, industrial metals and soft textures .

An entirely timber attic bedroom, dreamy . . .

Something to be said for a simple white wood bedroom bathed in natural light.

Creative use of upholstery tacks on this stylishly designed wood headboard.

Spiral after spiral on this pair of turned post beds, notice the clever craftmanship in the shapes of the drawer fronts on an otherwise boxy side table.

This Scandinavian bedroom demonstrates an earthy side to white painted hardwood floors.

Visible grain hardwood flooring; a great use of texture in this understated bedroom, pulled together perfectly with the dramatic bold black frame of the headboard mirror.

Wednesday Woodworks - October favorites

October is the month when autumn makes herself at home, harvest time. Here in the Turks and Caicos we do not experience the same changes as some other places further north but this year we have been up to our elbows and knees in leaves and soil with a harvest of sorts.  A landscaping project at fleur de lys villa  called for a transplant of four of our beloved BIG trees, much more to come on that topic but for now a showcase of a few of our favorite blogs who also share our love of wonderful woodworks.  Enjoy!

Wednesday Woodworks - Garage Doors

Images by Steve Passmore, Adam Sherwin, David Gallardo, and moi

TC Millwork is well known for our custom built doors; arched, louvered, raised panel, glass framed, exterior, interior, sliding, French, bi-fold . . . . our portfolio is extensive and could go on and on.  A few months back we had an unusual request that we jumped at the opportunity and the challenge.

This client had the standard white PVC garage doors, but after undergoing this extensive of a renovation, they no longer seemed appropriate for such an otherwise gorgeous front entrance and first impression of the spectacular home.   The PVC panels were removed and then replaced with custom built wood paneling, all the hardware and the operating system was salvaged.  The opposite smaller garage door was also replaced with a pair of custom carriage house style doors.

Wednesday Woodworks - Gansevoort Entertainment Additions

The Gansevoort has been one of the hottest, most popular new resorts to hit theTurks and Caicos. TC Millwork has been fortunate to have been a part of making this resort the chic, stylish destination it is today.  Among our many custom built contributions;

earthy spa reception desk and beauty product display,

Bagatelle Bistro Bar, which so many people have complimented that it still looks

 this flawless after countless party nights of tabletop dancing (sans stilettos we hope).

All units feature our custom built closets and a few bedroom layouts, these sliding panels shown above.

Now there will be a small modification that will create a nice improvement.  The image above depicts a typical Gansevoort bedroom, notice the large looming empty space above the flat screen television?  All that is about to change.

No more empty space!  The televisions will soon be encased in a shelving unit which will allow space for display on top and a tidy little nook for the dvd unit below.
