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. 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.

Our customer, in Newtown, PA, just removed all of the wall-paper left from the prior owner of their home, repainted the walls in Aqua-tint colors; removed all of the wall-to-wall carpeting in the first floor; installed custom hardwood flooring; selected a Henkel-Harris dining room suite from Stenella Antiques in Perkasie, PA; and decided that the next step in redecorating their Williamsburg style home was selection of fine hand-knotted oriental rugs for the living room and dining room. The rugs now provide the color palette for upholstery and window-treatment fabric choices.
Having ruled out machine-made or tufted rugs for their premium makeover, they selected two finely detailed hand-knotted reproduction Persian Ferrahan design rugs made in India that complement one another across the entry hall by reversing the respective background and border colors.
While much had been accomplished in the home prior to Brandon Oriental Rugs being invited to assist in the project, with the selection of their fine quality rugs the homeowners are well on their way to realization of their dream home.

This large oversized living room was empty, the clients did not know where to begin. They wanted an adult elegant space for entertaining. As the room can be closed off from the children ,they felt they can save this space for themselves.We added two great looking chesterield like sofas from CR Laine and an octagonal ottoman all is soft shades of cream and grey. The walls are painted grey owl by Ben Moore. There are occasional pieces like stools and tables from Worlds Away and Uttermost. The window seats , throws, pillows and accents are from kellydesigns, kdHOME

This amazing room was designed by the amazing team of Camu & Morrison. It’s a Japanese cinema room with Tatami Flooring, hand dyed vintage French linen walling, vintage African textile cushions and Home of Wool Tufted Daybed Cushions.
We had the honour of collaborating with those amazing professional on a few occasions before. So when they came to us again with a request to create a custom mattress for this project we were very excited to join right away!
The daybed here is constructed of 3 equal pieces of tufted cushions filled with our 100% natural wool stuffing. The customer wanted some extra thickness, so we made the cushions at 20 cm each to accommodate that. The other special thing on this occasion was that the customer had chosen a very dark upholstery fabric which he explicitly wanted for the covers.

Powder bathroom is the one room in a house where not many rules apply. In this house, it is a vibrant example of transitional design.
As you enter thru frosted glass door decorated with colorful Venetian accents, you are immediately welcomed by vibrantly red walls reflecting softly in the white marble floor. The red mosaic creates a backdrop that sets the playful and elegant tone for this room, and it compliments perfectly with the floating, curvilinear black ebony vanity.
The entire powder room is designed with beauty and function in mind. Lets not be deceived here - it has all the necessities of a bathroom.
The three layers of this vanity give it an elegant and sculptural form while housing LED lighting and offering convenient and necessary storage in form of drawers. Special attention was paid to ensure uninterrupted pattern of the ebony veneer, maximizing its beauty. Furthermore, the weightless design of the vanity was accomplished by crowning it with a thick textured glass counter that sits a top of crystal spheres.
There are three lighting types in this bathroom, each addressing the specific function of this room: 1) recessed overhead LED lights used for general illumination, 2) soft warm light penetrating the rock crystal decorative sconces placed on each side of mirror to illuminate the face, 3) LED lighting under each layer of the vanity produces an elegant pattern at night and for use during entertaining.

These aluminum blinds have larger slats than mini blinds. Slats generally come in 1/2" slats, 1" slats, 2" slats and even 2 1/2" slats, depending on the brand. The larger the window array, the larger the slats is the rule of thumb. This bedroom design matches the color of the aluminum blinds with the molding arount the window and floor, which makes the window treatments look larger. Consider custom bedspreads or duvet covers to complete the color coordination.

Columbus' Experienced Custom Cabinet Builder | 4x Best of Houzz Winner

Previous to the renovation, this space was 3 compartmentalized spaces consisting of formal dining, the kitchen, and then informal dining. We opened it up to make it into one 2019 ASID Award Winning Design. The pop of olive green allow to tie in the adjoining rooms, but offers a feature wall to display the clients fine China in an existing cabinet...creating a fun & welcoming dining area with plenty of room to flow. This open space also allows for multiple users in the kitchen to make a meal together while being able to still be a part of a conversation of guest sitting in the dining area. Although a counter depth refrigerator would have been ideal, it is all about the clients and their needs...so if more space is needed due to a larger family it is okay to break the rules! Custom cabinets were add to the end of the wall of cabinets for items like brooms & cleaning supplies so not to take up more space than needed...but to be put away neatly.

The introduction of pink shades in the interior
The interior in pink color allows you to show taste preferences, with a spectacular result, only a few basic rules need to be considered:
● Optical experiments - a combination of colors will add volume to both decorative details and furniture. If one wall is covered with light paint, the room will become visually more spacious and the ceiling will be higher.
Tip: a table and a sofa in light lilac colors will appear larger in size, which looks very advantageous in small bedrooms or bathrooms.
● A thorough knowledge of the color palette will allow you to properly organize
space. The colors of warm shades add to the interior lightness and comfort. Cold - positively affect mood and energy balance.
● Each combination of colors should be weighted and well thought out. To ensure that the interior is not tedious, it is recommended to paint in pink, maximum 2 walls, and in no case, not all 4.
● Complete the interior with other colors: brown, yellow-gray, turquoise. The interior should be bright accents. If you prefer dark colors to the walls, complement them with beige, white and pale lilac flowers.
● Paints should be harmoniously combined with the chosen style of the interior. Pink, perfectly harmonizes with the classic, romantic, Scandinavian, retro style and pop art style.
● Total should be in moderation. A good interior is harmony and balance of colors. We recommend in the same room to use one shade for the accent and two main.
● All color shades in the same room must be in harmony with each other.
