Search results for "Contradictory" in Home Design Ideas

Playful colors jump out from their white background, cozy outdoor spaces contrast with widescreen mountain panoramas, and industrial metal details find their home on light stucco facades. Elements that might at first seem contradictory have been combined into a fresh, harmonized whole. Welcome to Paradox Ranch.

The goal of this project was to create an open, clean and crisp space that is still warm and inviting. Using high ceilings, and great light warmed with natural wood accents, designers achieved this goal.
The island size served as a challenge since it was larger than any one slab could adequately cover, but it is the perfect proportion for the kitchen. The challenge was deciding the best placement for the seam of the stone.
This planning resulted in a welcoming kitchen that is also open, clean, and crisp. Although some of the individual elements were contradictory in style, they blended together perfectly, providing a classic look that can be enjoyed for a lifetime .

Living room - contemporary medium tone wood floor, brown floor and tray ceiling living room idea in Orange County with white walls and a media wall

Vigilant Floral in Delft strikes the right refined yet playful note in this artistic Dallas townhouse designed by Alice Cottrell. Photography by: Stephen Karlisch.
At first glance a traditional floral, but upon deeper investigation you realize you’re not alone. You’re being watched. A fantastic take on today’s big brother culture, Dan Funderburgh uses security cameras to reveal how we have become impervious enough to the presence of cameras that we don’t even notice them immediately when in such a contradictory scenario such as this floral wallpaper. Birds and butterflies on razor is another less than subtle comment on humans entrap themselves and nature on a daily basis. Yet the serious nature of the commentary loses out to the overall humor behind the way the elements have been combined and that is exactly why Vigilant Floral is destined to become a classic. This handscreened pattern is available in four colorways with customization offered.

One of the drivers in generating the floor plan was a set of seeming contradictory goals.
In watching the scouting tape of the family, I was very aware that this was a family who genuinely enjoyed being with each other. One of my goals therefore was to create a central communal space that the family could share.
I wanted to keep this space at an intimate scale but was over-ruled by the show staff due to 'camera angles'. In our computer generated image of this space, color was used to create a datum line that was closer to the floor and which would serve to bring down the visual scale of the room.
In the scouting tape the family members spoke of "Living on top of each other", "not having privacy" and "not being able to get away". Each of the bedrooms were place in their own 'pavilion' creating a sense of thier own place. But to maintain the sense of the strong family connection, each of the bedrooms connected through alcoves directly into the communal areas of the house.
Another oddity of houses built for TV is the sheer amount of lighting fixtures which are installed. Again the studio takes over when it comes to lighting. I had hoped that I could convince the show to reduce the number of fixtures, divide the lights into multiple circuits and put them all on dimmers. I am not sure where the dimmer/multi-circuit recommendation ended up, but the number of light fixtures did not get reduced.

This piece is our Ivory 36-inch Vanity in a black colorway. We use natural Carrara marble sourced from Italy for our tops. We feature this vanity with our optional mirror for an open feel. The vanity is wall-mounted and features pull out cabinets.
