We at ZaWorks pride ourselves in creating unique wall art that truly reflects the vision of the owner. And if ‘blending in but standing out’ is what you strive for in your interior style - you will love our "Tropical Paradise"! Our tropical paradise mural art was designed to create a welcoming and warm tropical vibe for the entry foyer of a private residence. We believe that art and creativity is not confined by a place, and this project is a great example of that! The goal was to bring the great outdoors in and invigorate the space but with an artistic twist. It was all about creating an inviting atmosphere with a mixture of colours, shapes, and textures. To create the maximalist decor trend, we embraced excess with large doses of leaves, exuberant flowers and plenty of textural elements. We carefully curated the creative design to be vibrant but not too catchy, blending in with the interiors perfectly! We added layers and layers of leaves to create an immersive experience of being in a beautiful tropical jungle.

This Altadena home is the perfect example of modern farmhouse flair. The powder room flaunts an elegant mirror over a strapping vanity; the butcher block in the kitchen lends warmth and texture; the living room is replete with stunning details like the candle style chandelier, the plaid area rug, and the coral accents; and the master bathroom’s floor is a gorgeous floor tile.

The Richland is what we call a “New Old-Florida” style home. It borrows from the old with the use of rafter-tails, a standing seam metal roof and bead board siding with brackets. While embracing the new with its tall windows without mullions, and smooth white stucco that has vertical and horizontal scoring.

WINNER: Silver Award – One-of-a-Kind Custom or Spec 4,001 – 5,000 sq ft, Best in American Living Awards, 2019 Affectionately called The Magnolia, a reference to the architect's Southern upbringing, this project was a grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. Located in Phoenix, Arizona’s idyllic Arcadia neighborhood, the home gives a nod to the area’s citrus orchard history. Echoing the past while embracing current millennial design expectations, this just-complete speculative family home hosts four bedrooms, an office, open living with a separate “dirty kitchen”, and the Stone Bar. Positioned in the Northwestern portion of the site, the Stone Bar provides entertainment for the interior and exterior spaces. With retracting sliding glass doors and windows above the bar, the space opens up to provide a multipurpose playspace for kids and adults alike. Nearly as eyecatching as the Camelback Mountain view is the stunning use of exposed beams, stone, and mill scale steel in this grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. White painted siding, white interior walls, and warm wood floors communicate a harmonious embrace in this soothing, family-friendly abode.

Staircase - mid-sized traditional wooden straight wood railing staircase idea in New York with painted risers

Embracing an authentic Craftsman-styled kitchen was one of the primary objectives for these New Jersey clients. They envisioned bending traditional hand-craftsmanship and modern amenities into a chef inspired kitchen. The woodwork in adjacent rooms help to facilitate a vision for this space to create a free-flowing open concept for family and friends to enjoy. This kitchen takes inspiration from nature and its color palette is dominated by neutral and earth tones. Traditionally characterized with strong deep colors, the simplistic cherry cabinetry allows for straight, clean lines throughout the space. A green subway tile backsplash and granite countertops help to tie in additional earth tones and allow for the natural wood to be prominently displayed. The rugged character of the perimeter is seamlessly tied into the center island. Featuring chef inspired appliances, the island incorporates a cherry butchers block to provide additional prep space and seating for family and friends. The free-standing stainless-steel hood helps to transform this Craftsman-style kitchen into a 21st century treasure.
