Since 2010, our studio has been designing interiors for investors, developers, and commercial property owners, focused on elevating market appeal, asset valuation, and competitive edge. Inspired by their global travels, the clients envisioned constructing four short-term luxury rental villas within their private estate in Greenville, South Carolina. The interiors were meant to capture a distinct regional flavor without relying on literal historicism, defining four directional concepts: Japan, Persia, the Nordic, and the Mediterranean. The Mediterranean-styled project, presented for your consideration, was born under severe structural constraints—much like the other villas in this complex whose interiors our studio designed as part of this commission. To work on the indoor spaces, the clients provided a traditional residential architectural template typical of South Carolina, featuring multiple pitched roofs alongside a rigid, unalterable floor plan that was identical for all four planned villas on the estate. While this approach ensured overall exterior cohesion across the property, in this particular instance, it least conflicted with the interior design goals, as both the architecture and the Mediterranean interior organically synchronize into a singular Southern narrative. As a designer, I wanted to capture the aesthetic of a sun-drenched coastline, raw textures, and absolute Southern comfort, creating a sensory oasis carved from limestone, wrapped in vines, and kissed by the sun. Although the home's architectural form dictates the rules of South Carolina, our studio boldly breaks them—masterfully weaving in the distinct moods of Ibiza and Sicily to once again rewire the connection between the architectural envelope and the interior soul.

The overflow spa is built into the floor of the room and the water level is 6 inches above the floor. When the spa overflows the water is captured in a hidden catch basin and re-circulated back into the spa. This entire perimeter overflow spa is finished in a mix of iridescent and non-iridescent blue colored glass tile. All of the lines of the tile run true throughout the entire spa. This means you can follow a single line of tile up the front of the spa, down the interior wall, across the floor, up and over the seating, and finally out the back. These lines display a high level of craftsmanship, and can be seen running true through the spa no matter what direction you look at it from. A custom cut template is used for the radius of the interior steps in order to make sure the cut tiles blend together perfectly as they curve around. Tile is blended across right angles of interior walls with the use of a special quarter round tile. The glass tile work in this perimeter overflow spa is of the highest quality and ever little detail was carefully planned and installed masterfully. The interior of the spa features two customized king and queen chairs made specifically the client and his wife. Each chair features a total of seven massage jets. Three are aimed at their back; two for the calf muscles and two more are foot massagers. In between the king and queen chairs is a bench seat, which features more massage jets aimed at the lower back. On the opposite side of the bench are two round steps to aid in comfortably getting in and out of the spa. Fiber optic lighting is not only incorporated into the spa but also the floor and walls. Holes were drilled into the floor around the spa and fiber optic lights were inserted to be flush with the tile of the floor. The lights continue into the interior of the spa and are installed flush with the spas glass tile finish. The lights emerge from the spa and make their way up and around the walls. The result is a brush stroke of light that begins on the floor makes its way through the spa and up onto the wall. Weaving the fiber optic lighting into the floor and through the glass tile of the spa was a challenging feat but produced wonderful results. The lighting combined with the shimmer of the iridescent glass tile and overflowing water creates a very elegant indoor spa fit for a king and queen.

This 1990's home, located in North Vancouver's Lynn Valley neighbourhood, had high ceilings and a great open plan layout but the decor was straight out of the 90's complete with sponge painted walls in dark earth tones. The owners, a young professional couple, enlisted our help to take it from dated and dreary to modern and bright. We started by removing details like chair rails and crown mouldings, that did not suit the modern architectural lines of the home. We replaced the heavily worn wood floors with a new high end, light coloured, wood-look laminate that will withstand the wear and tear from their two energetic golden retrievers. Since the main living space is completely open plan it was important that we work with simple consistent finishes for a clean modern look. The all white kitchen features flat doors with minimal hardware and a solid surface marble-look countertop and backsplash. We modernized all of the lighting and updated the bathrooms and master bedroom as well. The only departure from our clean modern scheme is found in the dressing room where the client was looking for a more dressed up feminine feel but we kept a thread of grey consistent even in this more vivid colour scheme. This transformation, featuring the clients' gorgeous original artwork and new custom designed furnishings is admittedly one of our favourite projects to date!
