We love an open concept that flows from living to dining. So how do we make those wide open spaces feel warm and inviting? -Natural light -Texture: crisp white paneling, grass cloth wallpaper, and wood beams provide depth and warmth -Pattern play: plush upholstery and playful patterns add visual interest -Furniture arrangements that carve out special spaces for lounging, dining, and conversation. It all adds up to a beautiful and functional space!

The formal living room is one of our favorites! The chairs are not only elegant, they’re also incredibly comfortable and offer just the right height of pillow to ensure you can get really comfy. It’s elegant coastal decor at its finest with chairs constructed of white-lacquered mahogany with handwoven cane sides and back. The upholstery and lumbar pillows are made of a creamy linen fabric. The gorgeous chandelier is a showstopper, made of wrought iron, pairs an airy open design with a glossy glass droplet accent crystal in the middle. Don’t forget the cocktail ottoman, made of natural oak wood and linen-tufted fabric on top with bronze nailheads to complete the look. A family heirloom comes into play with an old record player that they wanted to showcase. A fun and unique piece, it fits beautifully between the two French doors that open to the front porch. The French doors have custom woven wood shades with a pair of simple wide linen stripe custom draperies flanking one side. This room is a perfect place to sit and read or sip a glass of wine.

The homeowners wish-list when searching for properties in the Geneva Lake area included: low-maintenance, incredible lake views, a pier but also a house that needed a lot of work because they were searching for a true project. After months of designing and planning, a bright and open design of the great room was created to maximize the room’s incredible view of Geneva Lake. Nautical touches can be found throughout the home, including the rope detailing on the overhead light fixture, in the coffee table accessories and the child-sized replica wooden boat. The crisp, clean kitchen has thoughtful design details, like the vintage look faucet and a mosaic outline of Geneva Lake in the back splash. This project was featured in the Summer 2019 issue of Lakeshore Living

The Family Room included a sofa, coffee table, and piano that the family wanted to keep. We wanted to ensure that this space worked with higher volumes of foot traffic, more frequent use, and of course… the occasional spills. We used an indoor/outdoor rug that is soft underfoot and brought in the beautiful coastal aquas and blues with it. A sturdy oak cabinet atop brass metal legs makes for an organized place to stash games, art supplies, and toys to keep the family room neat and tidy, while still allowing for a space to live. Even the remotes and video game controllers have their place. Behind the media stand is a feature wall, done by our contractor per our design, which turned out phenomenally! It features an exaggerated and unique diamond pattern. We love to design spaces that are just as functional, as they are beautiful.
