This inviting outdoor dining and entertainment space was designed and built by Just Hardscape & Design, a division of Express Sunrooms of Charleston. The large Belgard Lafitt Three-Piece Pavers bring a sense of grandeur and timeless beauty to the design, while the stone-like walls and columns add depth and character with their authentic texture and color. Perfect for hosting family dinners, friendly gatherings, or quiet evenings under the stars, this space blends craftsmanship and comfort to capture the essence of Lowcountry outdoor living.

The star of this sophisticated house in Israel, that covers a 500 sq surface, is our Skirt ceiling lamp, with a double lampshade in light green. The interior design is mostly composed by modern and design furniture, the tones are bright and neutral, the only colour flashes are given by Skirt and by the turquoise pouffs. The two-floors building has a characteristic “L” shape, with the both sides of the same length, these wings embrace and host the swimming pool, giving a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. The glass wall of the living room gives access directly to the swimming pool area, so Skirt ceiling lamp can light up the warm summer evenings.

A black lacquer console table flanks the entry way by way of this great room. A swag artisan purple star lamp dangles above, shedding soft purple light. The clean and bright arrangement is a refresh of solid colored silk flowers (Magnolia) and Pussy willow branches. It rests by a vintage ebony sculpture, a Black woman. Her neck is adorned with sentimental statement jewelry that boasts the word “majesty”. Next to her is a white lacquer rectangular mirror repurposed as a tray that holds a host of white candles. At the forefront, a metal trapezoid shaped cigar ashtray holds a bundle of white sage and a Palo Santo stick etched with “Love”. It is almost a shrine of sorts. What a gorgeous presentation. Who wouldn’t want their space to be blessed with such a lovely welcoming committee?
