A fresh take on traditional style, this sprawling suburban home draws its occupants together in beautifully, comfortably designed spaces that gather family members for companionship, conversation, and conviviality. At the same time, it adroitly accommodates a crowd, and facilitates large-scale entertaining with ease. This balance of private intimacy and public welcome is the result of Soucie Horner’s deft remodeling of the original floor plan and creation of an all-new wing comprising functional spaces including a mudroom, powder room, laundry room, and home office, along with an exciting, three-room teen suite above. A quietly orchestrated symphony of grayed blues unites this home, from Soucie Horner Collections custom furniture and rugs, to objects, accessories, and decorative exclamationpoints that punctuate the carefully synthesized interiors. A discerning demonstration of family-friendly living at its finest.

Memphis is a generous console with a turned brass frame supporting a ceramic basin and vanity top. The double sink unit is a sleek single piece featuring two large oval basins; the frame with integral towel rails is an impressive tubular brass structure.
In the Crystal version, the console is characterised by an original transparent plexiglass element. A skilful synthesis of tradition and modernity, comfort and elegance, the Memphis and Crystal Memphis consoles once again demonstrate the unmistakeable way in which Devon&Devon expresses classic design.
The ceramic top is available in a black or white and the frame in a chrome, light gold or bright nickel finish
Dimensions: 123.8w x 55.7d x88.3h cm.

A dramatic vertical backdrop of black marble with white inclusions frames this unique freestanding staircase in an open-concept home. As the staircase descends into the naturally lit area below, white oak treads appear to float against the striking marble wall. The handrail is crafted from the same black marble as the backdrop, demonstrating how thoughtful material choices create true luxury. A glass panel railing system completes the design, creating an unexpected focal point that pairs organic warmth with luxurious stone. The interplay between natural wood, transparent glass, and dramatic marble proves that a staircase can be both functional architecture and sculptural art.
