“We wanted to come here
and decompress,” she says.
eeking com-fort

S
and sand, she turned the
reins over to Tyndall, the
first place finisher in the
2009 “Nation’s Next Top
Model Home” Web-based
reality television show
set at Compass Pointe in
Brunswick County.
For the Figure Eight
project, Tyndall led her cli-ent
and one adult daughter
on a High Point market
shopping spree to furnish
and appoint the five-bedroom
home that also
includes a first floor family
room for the two young
couples and their children.
On rich walnut floors
she arranged a grouping of
upholstered sofas around
an oversized ottoman in
front of the hearth and a flat
screen television.
The living area is just a
few paces away from a wet
bar tucked into a second
partition wall and the lav-ish
powder room finished
with shimmering glass tile
and an Kohler’s wading
pool sink.
Casual dining in the open
kitchen is distinguished
by Carrera marble
counter tops. Custom
lighting enhances glazed
cabinets, custom subway
tiles and the ceramic tile
backsplash above the
Wolf gas range.
