Nearly the entire first floor of this 10,000 sq. foot home was renovated to reflect the lifestyle of this music and art oriented family. Colorful, fun and zany describe the upbeat kitchen with a kick. Green glass tile was placed on the fireplace as well as above the stove and a custom orange glass table with stainless steel base was designed for dining. The home owners are serious art collectors as well as music aficionados which is apparent in most of their art. Citrus greens and oranges are contrasted with black and brown. The very custom kitchen was transformed in addition to most of the first floor living spaces. We loved designing the curved foyer benches with lime green pony hair. This place rocks!

A tight urban space dictates that planting is not only vertical but that every square inch of space is used every month of the year. In June, in addition to the apple trees which are espaliered, tomatoes are grown in containers (newly planted here, so they are only 1 foot tall), while herbs tightly hug the garden border. The ornamental and culinary gardens, cheek-by-jowl in tight spaces, mandate the use of organic gardening techniques. Garden in May/June, with peonies, poppies and bleeding heart.
