This custom-fabricated media console expertly balances industrial strength with a warm, natural aesthetic. Built with a robust dark welded steel skeleton frame, the piece features a light-toned solid wood countertop and matching side panels, offering a clean, modern contrast to the structural metal framework. The storage layout is highly functional, featuring an open shelving bay on the left, an adjoining cabinet door with an industrial expanded metal mesh insert for ventilation, and a vertical bank of three drawers on the right. Every drawer and door front is meticulously encased in a custom-welded steel frame, adhering to the design rule where these elements sit over the face frame with a .25" overlap rather than being inset. The drawer fronts are finished with sleek, dark modern bar pulls, highlighting the premium craftsmanship of this versatile piece.

When we purchased our Mount Pleasant brick ranch, we knew we wanted to add a screened porch to the inviting backyard at some point. Our ultimate goal was to create a comfortable outdoor room, and I feel like that was accomplished! We added beams, beadboard, recessed lighting and, of course, a fan. Decorations were fun – we hung curtains to give it a true room feel. I had the sectional outdoor couch custom made to fit the corner and then the rest was accessorizing and adding more seating.

Axis Mundi typically decided not to play by the rules. Instead of de rigeur nautical artifacts, floppy sofas and wicker furniture, the firm responded to Makoid’s all-white interior envelope by injecting rooms with comfortable modern elegance that’s more contemporary Cap Ferrat than Eastern Long Island. Clean furniture silhouettes—from Cassina, Poltrona Frau and B&B Italia—a Massimo Vitali beach scene, a Moooi chandelier and industrial finishes (such as the steel of the fireplace surround and the anodized aluminum of a sleek Bulthaup kitchen) spark a creative tension between indoors and out. The gray palette provides a quiet backdrop for the nature outside, except for the master suite, where custom oak panels and blue shades create a reassuring warmth conducive to sleep.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey

Our Carmel (Indiana) design-build studio transformed this dated home into a vibrant, cheerful space using custom furniture and thoughtful decor. A beautiful console table and artwork were added to the entryway to set the tone for the rest of the house. We updated all the furnishings in the living space, creating a bright, comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere. The dining room was given a sophisticated look with elegant wallpaper and statement lighting, which added the perfect finishing touch. --- Project completed by Wendy Langston's Everything Home interior design firm, which serves Carmel, Zionsville, Fishers, Westfield, Noblesville, and Indianapolis.

Challenged with strict lot coverage regulations and setback rules from the City of Atlanta, our design team expertly designed this private, contemporary style, outdoor living space for these busy city dwellers to enjoy year-round. The custom, rectangular swimming pool is composed of clean, sleek lines and boasts a tanning ledge and seating bench that runs the entire length of the pool.

The exterior of what looks like a vernacular Hamptons shingle cottage, designed by architect Blaze Makoid, is intentionally deceiving. For the interiors, Axis Mundi typically decided not to play by the rules. Instead of de rigeur nautical artifacts, floppy sofas and wicker furniture, the firm responded to Makoid’s all-white interior envelope by injecting rooms with comfortable modern elegance that’s more contemporary Cap Ferrat than Eastern Long Island.

This upbeat and happy family needed a kitchen that was timeless, durable and fun, while sticking to a colour palette of gray and white, with a little splash of blue. Those parameters were simple enough! The unique backsplash in a chevron marble plays with the arabesque pattern in the valances so well. This is not a boring gray and white kitchen. It's super fun. The crystal in the lighting, in the fun knobs gives our client her need for sparkle, while even the polished chrome gleams. A custom built bench with fun toss cushions ads even more fun to this great space. And don't ever forget Mickey! He's center stage above the bay window. In this house, he rules.
