The room had to maintain a proportional balance between the recessive background of the white tiles and the strength of the accent tile’s imagery. Thus equal elements of visual proportion and harmony was essential to a successfully designed room. In terms of color, the boldness of the tiles black and white pattern with its overall whimsical pattern made the selection a perfect fit for a playful and innovative room. . I liked the way the different shapes blend into each other, hardly indistinguishable from one another, yet decipherable. His shapes are visual mazes, archetypal ideograms of a sort. At a distance, they form a pattern; up close, they form a story. Many of the themes are about people and their connections to each other. Some are visually explicit; others are more reflective and discreet. Most are just fun and whimsical, appealing to children and to the uninhibited in us. They are also primitive in their bold lines and graphic imagery. Many shapes are of monsters and scary beings, relaying the innate fears of childhood and the exterior landscape of the reality of city life. In effect, they are graffiti like patterns, yet indelibly marked in our subconscious. In addition, the basic black, white, and red colors so essential to Haring’s work express the boldness and basic instincts of color and form. In addition, my passion for both design and art found their aesthetic confluence in the expression of this whimsical statement of idea and function.

Grey fitted cabinetry, a stone-topped dining table, and the quiet hum of a city beyond the glass — this dining room is composed with deliberate calm.

We had a clear goal for the master bathroom: create a spacious, custom-designed shower, complemented by elegant finishes and modern conveniences that would replace the outdated fixtures and layout. The new shower was designed to be both spacious and luxurious, with new plumbing, including a drain and valve trim kit, ensuring functionality matched the shower's aesthetic appeal. Essential to the shower's design were the installation of a recessed wall niche, a tile bench, and a frameless tempered glass enclosure with obscure glass, enhancing the shower's spaciousness and privacy. Smooth White 8" x 24" ceramic tiles grace the shower walls, while the Calacatta Vecchia Penny Mosaic adorns the shower flooring and wall niche, seamlessly blending elegance with functionality. Equally thoughtful updates transformed the vanity area, with Waypoint Painted Linen cabinets, and sleek Jeffrey Alexander Boswell handles, radiating timeless elegance. This setting is enriched by a Pro Cloud quartz countertop, a standard rectangle undermount sink, and a Delta Trinsic faucet. Along with new lighting and a regular framed mirror, the combination of these elements brings depth and brightness to the space.

Designing a single bathroom to serve the needs of three teenage girls presents a unique challenge, requiring a delicate balance of personal style and exceptional functionality. Located in Maple Grove, this bathroom was conceived as a durable and stylish solution for a busy family. Our primary focus was on maximizing storage without sacrificing aesthetics. The design features a beautiful white oak vanity with spacious drawers, complemented by an ingenious triple-mirrored medicine cabinet that provides dedicated storage for each sibling. We further enhanced the space with a custom-built, between-the-studs cabinet, a clever solution for storing shampoo and other essentials. Aesthetics were equally important. The clean lines of the Taj Mahal quartzite countertop and the natural wood tones create a bright, inviting atmosphere, while a splash of color and texture is added with a beige zellige-style tile backsplash and a fun, floral shower curtain. Within the shower-tub area, a recessed, wall-to-wall niche ensures ample space for everyone’s products. The result is a shared space that is both organized and elegant. This bathroom proves that with strategic design, even a high-traffic family area can be a beautiful and harmonious sanctuary, built to withstand daily use while providing each occupant with their own dedicated space.

LOS ANGELES, CA / SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL The Bel-Air House sits above Hollywood, along scenic Mulholland Drive, the storied thoroughfare that acts as a winding referee between the compact density of the San Fernando Valley, and the more ex-urban conditions of Los Angeles. In contrast to the client’s weekend beach house, here the client envisioned a home that could share equally in the energy of the city, and the rustic qualities of canyon living. The resulting home is both minimal and refined—its abstract forms read against the wilder aspects of its nominally natural setting. As a patron of music, and the arts, the client’s creative interests suggested the overall design approach: A simple yet sophisticated backdrop for the presentation of recitals, and the display and appreciation of beautiful artifacts. The house avows a museum-like attitude—the rich but restrained material palette draws from the colors and textures of the Santa Monica Mountains, and opposes natural with refined, polished with honed, quietly confirming a reverential aspect to this “temple on the hill”. The focus of the house is a dark and silent pool. Intended as a space of emptiness, the pool is an enigmatic statement—at once a source of origin for the house, as well as its apparent conclusion. The spatial aspects unfold from this moment, with the various rooms revolving around this essential void. The pool and its open rotunda echo the reservoir in the canyon below the house, while the ocean beyond ultimately underscores the house’s strong commitment to water. Simple stone walls, taut rooflines, and disciplined and minimal detailing allow the home to act as an armature for the client’s personal expression of taste and creativity. In complement to the client’s Mussel Shoals House, which suggests a relationship with the vast, and ever-widening horizon, the architectural resolution of the Bel-Air House emerges from the sheltered and enveloping emotion of the canyon.
