Located in İzmir, this villa project harmoniously blends architectural elegance with Serapool’s sophisticated material selection. The Sukabumi Series interacts with the natural green hues of water to create a tropical atmosphere, while the Snow White Series brightens the design with its brilliant white tones that reflect light and add freshness. Snow White and Sukabumi outer trim pieces perfect the transitions, delivering visual continuity and refined edge details. All products offer high durability with a water absorption rate below 0.5%, and exhibit excellent resistance to UV rays, chemical effects, and thermal shocks. With a PTV ≥ 45° slip resistance value, they ensure secure footing on wet surfaces. The result is not just a swimming area, but a luxurious outdoor experience where design, safety, and comfort coexist effortlessly.

Blending contemporary and historic styles requires innovative design and a well-balanced aesthetic. That was the challenge we faced in creating a modern kitchen for this historic home in Lynnfield, MA. The final design retained the classically beautiful spatial and structural elements of the home while introducing a sleek sophistication. We mixed the two design palettes carefully. For instance, juxtaposing the warm, distressed wood of an original door with the smooth, brightness of non-paneled, maple cabinetry. A cork floor and accent cabinets of white metal add texture while a seated, step-down peninsula and built in bookcase create an open transition from the kitchen proper to an inviting dining space. This is truly a space where the past and present can coexist harmoniously. Photo Credit: Eric Roth

Builder: Weeks & Mitchell Remodeling Inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional craftsmanship, Lead & Laurel was designed to feel both rooted in history and tailored for modern living. The focal point of the space is a custom leaded-glass window, casting soft natural light across warm stone surfaces and creating a sense of quiet elegance throughout the room. Rich wood cabinetry introduces depth and character, while earthy tile selections and clean architectural lines provide a balanced foundation. A sculptural soaking tub positioned beneath the handcrafted window invites moments of pause, while the adjoining shower seamlessly blends functionality with refined detailing. Matte black fixtures add contrast and definition, offering a contemporary layer to an otherwise classic palette. The result is a bathroom that feels collected, enduring, and deeply personal—a retreat where old-world inspiration and modern comfort coexist in perfect harmony.

When our long-time clients, decidedly urban dwellers, de-camped from the city to the suburbs in 2019, we helped them remake their “too-traditional” new house into a home that better fit their style. A recently-completed house by a developer, we set-out from day one to sprinkle their preferred contemporary, more-urban-than-suburban style throughout the spaces. All without major architectural changes. We changed all the decorative lighting and doors throughout the home to allow the architecture to better align with their style. The home is now layered with clean-lines, modern fabrics, vibrant colors, and contemporary art. The result is the perfect coexistence of contemporary and traditional – without letting either feel out of place.

The large windows give a wonderful view of the outdoors while still allowing you to enjoy a cocktail in front of the fireplace!

modern mountain home captures the essence of rustic-meets-industrial in a minimal yet impactful way. Starting with a color palette inspired by our client’s love of white, gray and black, we created a home that is cool and hip for entertaining and family lake-side living. Industrial elements and rustic details coexist side by side, such as the striking black metal fireplace facing off against a custom oversized sectional and an antler chandelier in the central great room, while sheepskin throws casually top sleek mid-century-inspired dining chairs. Every room has a “wow” factor element, and the playful interiors are filled with graphic accents that express the family’s personality and history: a pantry door adapted from a shipping container lists family birth dates in place of the usual ports of call, a sliding door calls out the site’s original greenhouse, and IPhone photos are transformed into very personal bedroom murals. This is a mountain home, so durable outdoor fabrics abound, and a “snack shack” made from a glass garage door opens up to reveal an indoor/outdoor bar.

This inground pool project is a stunning example of how nature and luxury can seamlessly coexist. Set against a backdrop of lush greenery, the vibrant landscaping brings a colourful energy to the space. The beautifully maintained flower beds and rock gardens complement the sleek design of the pool, creating a welcoming environment that feels both elegant and natural. The seating area, complete with a cozy firepit, invites you to relax and enjoy your surroundings, whether by day or under the stars. HB Pools designed this project to offer both comfort and style, with ample space for lounging, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful ambiance of the outdoors. As with all HB Pools projects, this pool was built with the highest standards of quality and care. Every detail, from the choice of materials to the meticulous installation, reflects HB Pools’ commitment to excellence, transparency, and client satisfaction. This outdoor space is not just a place to swim—it's a vibrant oasis for relaxation and connection, designed to create lasting memories for years to come.
