Having remodeled several homes in prior cities, our clients came to us with a design aesthetic in mind. Building on their ideas and preferences, we presented a design called for a visually compelling wall with a contemporary Mid-Century Modern look.

This vintage Turkish Kilim ties together the space and helps define a conversation area within an open warehouse. The motif alternates between flatweave solid stripes and ornate embroidered sections. While the flatweave sections are the same on the front as they are on the back, the embroidered sections have an unfinished back similar to hand-knotted rugs. History of This Design: Kilims represent an important and widespread tradition in rug weaving, as they are commonly produced in villages and by nomadic tribes. Their motifs are determined by the individual weaver and often produced by memory, giving each kilim a unique character that reflects the tastes and perspective of individual artisans. Because of the manner in which they are woven, kilims contain geometric and rectilinear patterns — the tight curvilinear floral motifs found in many hand-knotted rugs cannot be produced with this technique.

Transforming 550SQ FT into something truly inspiring. Iconic HM Eames Lounge Chair in walnut with black custom leather. A tufted brown leather sofa from Four Hands Furniture (Austin, TX). Crate & Barrel teak/marble coffee table and geometric "Twinge" rug. Audio Engine Bamboo speakers--all add the coziness of the modern space.

The "Old Man" painting demands your attention. Harry Bertoia's Diamond chair is purposely placed so as to not block the art work. The wood burning fireplace was upgrade with a salvaged brass surround. The beautifully striated wood paddle and vintage .22 octagonal barrel Rossi shotgun are family heirlooms. This was how we originally styled the home. Wall to wall shelves were add later.

SKP Design has completed a frame up renovation of a 1956 Spartan Imperial Mansion. We combined historic elements, modern elements and industrial touches to reimagine this vintage camper which is now the showroom for our new line of business called Ready To Roll. http://www.skpdesign.com/spartan-imperial-mansion You'll see a spectrum of materials, from high end Lumicor translucent door panels to curtains from Walmart. We invested in commercial LVT wood plank flooring which needs to perform and last 20+ years but saved on decor items that we might want to change in a few years. Other materials include a corrugated galvanized ceiling, stained wall paneling, and a contemporary spacious IKEA kitchen. Vintage finds include an orange chenille bedspread from the Netherlands, an antique typewriter cart from Katydid's in South Haven, a 1950's Westinghouse refrigerator and the original Spartan serial number tag displayed on the wall inside.
