Schloegel Design RemodelThe updated staircase feels like a true design moment — the kind that makes you pause before heading upstairs.
It beautifully blends Modern Traditional architecture with just the right touch of Art Deco influence, creating something that feels both timeless and tailored. The custom square-top newel posts, finished in a light natural wood tone, bring warmth and approachability to the space. That organic texture balances the sleekness of the metalwork and keeps the look from feeling too formal.
Instead of traditional spindles, the black iron balusters feature a clean, repeating rectangular pattern. The result? A subtle geometric rhythm that feels elevated and intentional without overwhelming the eye. It’s structured, but still inviting.
Underfoot, a neutral carpet runner softens the climb and adds a layer of comfort, while crisp white risers and soft taupe walls allow the high-contrast railing to take center stage. Every element works together — nothing competes.
More than just a way to move between floors, this staircase acts as a sculptural focal point. It anchors the home with a boutique-hotel sophistication while still feeling warm, livable, and distinctly personal.
Rosa Dest InteriorsRemodeled screen porch to create a sunroom.
This bold, collected and colorful sunroom was designed with the intention of capturing as much lighting as we could, the windows replaced the screens that were originally in place. The columns were antique columns that created a unique transition from the kitchen & dining room to the sunroom.
The teak bench is from Indonesia, the berber rug is Moroccan, the tiki ottoman and french bistro table alongside the antique, wooden, pig trough coffee table with wood straps were the perfect eclectic mix to give the feel of an exotic space within the home.
Our tie in touch was the ceiling color which reflected the outdoor swimming pool through it's cool blue color, a final touch that brought the indoor-outdoor concept to life.

Meshberg GroupLocated in the heart of DUMBO Brooklyn at a former industrial site, this historic building was converted into luxury loft condominiums in 2000. The owners of this 2,500 square foot loft wanted a clean, and uncomplicated space which would showcase the incredible views to the west of Manhattan, and the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. By utilizing a bright palette of white lacquered cabinets, Danby marble countertops, custom painted built-in millwork, and contrasting refinished original dark oak factory floors, we were able to achieve a truly special residential Brooklyn backdrop. A new open contemporary kitchen and dining area, entry and master closets, custom lighting and hardware were all part of the loft renovation and interior design.

Regenesis Ecological DesignClematis armandii 'Evergreen Clematis' (foreground) arches over a custom-built cedar arbor, modeled to accentuate the home's Craftsman-style architecture. Welded mild-steel panel fills create a scaffold for Akebia quinata 'Five-leaf Akebia Vine' (background), lending seasonal privacy and afternoon shade along this narrow sideyard access walkway.
Laney LA, Inc.On a sloping 13,700 square foot lot, the design intent of this project was to craft a village of stone masses behind a quiet, landscaped wall. From the curb, the facade feels both understated and timeless - a rooted monument from a time long gone. Yet its essence is communal. Inspired by mediterranean medinas, it is an experience that feels solitary and shared, a retreat and a relic.
Behind the front door, a sprawling sanctuary unfolds organized around large outdoor living spaces. Its eroded beauty invites visitors to become immersed in the lush landscaping and serene stone corridors. Leveraging a minimal material palette, the home creates its own transformative context with a deeply rooted connection to nature.
Richard Manion Architecture Inc.Our intent was to create a contemporary beach house that would combine the simplicity of geometrical spaces and volumes with warm materials. This family weekend house is entered at the upper street level through a translucent glass gate that is set between the simple geometric volumes of the house and adjacent monumental gate pier, giving the feeling of penetrating a solid volume of architecture to arrive at your destination.
This leads down to the entry courtyard space, defined by the bold architecture on three sides, dense landscape on the other side and a reflecting pool to contrast the manmade with the natural. The solid entry facade, creating intrigue and providing privacy, contrasts with the glass oceanside facades, providing view and transparency. The house is organized around a dramatic skylit central hall with a monumental stair made of wood treads that seem to float on brushed stainless steel supports—the stair is both art/sculpture and architecture. Materials in muted and warm colors—beige plaster walls, floors in random ashlar limestone at the lower seaside level, wire-brushed oak floors at the second floor and stair, and travertine baths—maintain a united color scheme that is punctuated by colorful fabrics and the owner’s collection of tribal art and modern furnishings.
