Inspiration for a tropical medium tone wood floor bedroom remodel in Hawaii with multicolored walls

Positioned at the base of Camelback Mountain this hacienda is muy caliente! Designed for dear friends from New York, this home was carefully extracted from the Mrs’ mind. She had a clear vision for a modern hacienda. Mirroring the clients, this house is both bold and colorful. The central focus was hospitality, outdoor living, and soaking up the amazing views. Full of amazing destinations connected with a curving circulation gallery, this hacienda includes water features, game rooms, nooks, and crannies all adorned with texture and color. This house has a bold identity and a warm embrace. It was a joy to design for these long-time friends, and we wish them many happy years at Hacienda Del Sueño.

Hickory Lane was an exceptionally special project for me, as it provided the opportunity to work with dear friends who had been searching with me for over two years to find the perfect ranch home to downsize into. Our journey together was marked by countless viewings and discussions, ensuring every detail aligned with their vision. When we finally discovered Hickory Lane, it was clear that this was the ideal match. We embarked on a comprehensive remodel to redesign the interior while staying within the confines of the existing square footage . The transformation was blending functionality with elegance. My clients are overjoyed with the results, as their new home now exudes comfort and style, perfectly tailored to their needs and personalities.

Engineered cedar siding creates beautiful gray-blue tones at the exterior of the home, while adding a textural element to activate the simple exterior design.

This project was a ton of fun. I have been working with these clients, now dear friends, for several years on their various properties and we work really well together. For their desert home, my goal was to create a new experience with each space while maintaining flow. This required striking a balance between organic light/airy spaces and glam dark/moody spaces. The finishes specified ranged from blackened steel, walnut, polished brass, rubbed plaster, digital wallcovering and back lit quartz to name a few. When a space draws you in closer to investigate there is a moment of discovery that elicits an emotional response. These spaces do just that. From sublime light fixtures to cozy seating vignettes, this home is a beautiful sanctuary - a place to entertain friends and family both indoors and out. It is a poised exercise in effortless, relaxed, edgy luxe design.

We added hard plank on the lower portion of the home because most of the wood had moisture issues. We decided to break up the pattern by using board and batten style hardi, and then replaced the diagonal breakaway panels with the horizontal. The wire rails were run throughout the entry of the home in place of diagonal pickets. The front door was replaced with a Mahogany 3/4 panel french door. The trees encroaching on the home were removed. Landscape and roof are the last two items that will be done. I LOVE this home and so happy that it was not a flip, but a keeper for a dear friend.
