Farm Villa is a synthesis combining the modest, local traditions of the Vermont farmhouse with those of the Neoclassical European villa. The tall, grand French doors, European windows, bracketed roof rake overhangs, and almost severe regularity of the view-facing side place it in the tradition of Schinkel’s villas around Berlin, while the white clapboards used throughout and the plain square porch posts, steep roofs, and more relaxed composition of the of the entry side relate to farmhouses of the surrounding area in Vermont. In contrast to the exterior—part Vermont farmhouse, part Neoclassical villa—a modern, minimalist spirit infuses the interiors. The outside connects the house to traditions both of the place and of the family, and the inside represents a fresh, uncluttered way of living.

Thomspon Remodeling completed a total renovation of this condo and infused the owner's traditional design aesthetic by updating finishes and improving functionality. A wall was removed to create an open floor plan between the kitchen and family room, two bathrooms were remodeled, a new fireplace surround was added, and the main staircase was updated. Notice the unique tile designs used in the kitchen, fireplace surround, and master bath. The rich, textured brown horizontal tile suits this owner's personal style and is carried throughout the condo. Above the stove, a herringbone inset was added to create a focal point. The guest bathroom features a floating vanity, which gives this traditional space a little bit of a modern edge. The master bathroom has a fabulous tile feature wall above the double vanity. Lighting was carefully considered throughout to create the perfect balance with all the natural light in the main areas. Cool industrial style light fixtures add a pop of interest in the kitchen, entryway, and living room.

Harmonized on the edge of a tidal marsh of Bohicket Creek on Johns Island, a house was built for indoor-outdoor living. Constructed within a tight budget, architectural poetics were sought through integrated design, with the use of kebony shiplap siding, corrugated metal, and exposed wood rafters. The sensitive landscape drove a design concept that floats above the forest floor and blends in with the habitat of the marsh edge. There was consideration for detail and simple construction methods, through the use of modern interior and exterior trim with minimal details. The raw, simple construction methods and materials were used to infuse the spirit of boat docks and agricultural structures of Johns Island, SC with the use of heavy timber wood piles and knotty pine siding and rain screen. The interior details are simple and dramatic with a waterfall island anchoring the open floor plan and book matched birch veneer wood doors throughout.

Faced with extensive water damage to their home, the Patel’s turned to Cantoni designer Andrea Petor to infuse new life into their family’s beloved weekend retreat in Montgomery, Texas. Balancing the client’s minimalist wants with their love of hosting, Andrea created a cohesive design to accommodate their frequent guests and large extended family. Beginning with the kitchen remodel, Andrea worked with the Patel’s to identify the best layout for the space, understanding it would be used regularly for entertaining. To maximize storage space, Andrea designed custom floor to ceiling cabinetry finished in high gloss white lacquer. She selected Miele optic white appliances to enhance the sleek design. Andrea had a custom dining table built into the island to provide ample seating and ensure the entire family could enjoy meals together. The kitchen’s monochromatic color palette was carried throughout the interiors allowing the home’s beautiful waterfront views to take center stage. Adding richness and texture to each room, Andrea selected sculptural, modern furnishings to complete the space and bring the Patel’s vision to life.

Additionally, closet doors were installed, contributing to organized and clutter-free living. This West Village project showcases our commitment to blending style and functionality, resulting in a transformed living space that meets the unique needs of our clients.

Classic meets Modern in this West Village historic home renovation! Preserving the character and architectural integrity of this home while updating it for this modern busy family, we infused the design with old world charm but make it hip. We started by ripping everything down to the studs, re-arranging the kitchen for a more open feel, adding an oversized accordion door facing the backyard, and adding a powder room where the hallway used to be. The tiny powder room fit just inside of the pre-existing hallway, but served plenty of punch. Hand-painted lime wash walls with gold accenting done by Stevi Fourouli, enveloped the space, white the 3 walls surrounding the custom marble floating sink are pink bottaccino fluted marble. The oversized arteriors sconces and chandelier add drama to the space, while the mixed metal mirror bounces the light in the room.

Residential Project / Financial District, New York Tired of going to the museum? Build your own and lose yourself in it. ​ Located in the heart of New York City, next to Wall Street, is a stylish one-bedroom apartment that showcases a striking monochrome color scheme. The living area has been thoughtfully designed to feature shades of black, gray, and white, creating a sleek and sophisticated ambiance. However, the interior designer wanted to infuse the space with natural colors to add some vitality to the room. As a result, the living area also features a touch of green as a sub-color, bringing the outdoors inside. In line with the minimalist and modern design ethos of the apartment, the furniture selection is centered around the concept of "sculpture-like" pieces. Every furniture item is carefully curated and placed to create an art gallery-like effect. Each item stands out on its own, like an individual artwork on display. As you explore the living area, you'll feel as if you're wandering around in a museum, surrounded by pieces that are both functional and artistic. Ultimately, the designer's intention is to create a living area that is not just a functional space but a visually stunning exhibit that immerses you in the world of modern art and design. -HOLM Interior Design

When our clients made the move from East to West coast, they wanted to bring parts of their past along with them. Blending New York style with the relaxed, coastal vibe of La Jolla’s Wind & Sea community offered a unique design challenge and opportunity. From the outset, the bathrooms and kitchen were identified as the primary focus of this renovation. The aim was to weave the couple's distinctive style into the design while integrating modern touches. As we explored these priorities, we found that increasing the square footage would not only expand their living space but also make room for the corner fireplace they had been dreaming of. This addition would enhance both the functionality and the ambiance of the home, aligning perfectly with their vision for a more spacious and cozy living environment. The design approach embraced a contemporary aesthetic through simple black and white color blocking, complemented by unique fixtures and fittings. To create a balanced and inviting atmosphere, the design incorporated natural light by way of skylights and larger windows, which helped highlight the deep wood grain cabinetry. Whimsical art and furnishings further personalized the space, infusing it with character and warmth.

The contrasting wood grain and the metallic inlay infuse an extra layer of elegance, making this door a standout piece. The door is visually distinctive because of its alternating wood grain texture and metal inlay composition.
