Il locale interrato, un tempo ad uso dell'officina, diventa una piccola cantina climatizzata per le bottiglie più pregiate ed emerge in superficie con il bancone in cristallo sfaccettato. The underground floor, usually a repairing space, becomes a small cellar covered by the unique piece of furniture made of multi-sided glass that is used as a bar top.

This striking modern staircase pairs twin metal stringers with thick solid oak treads that appear to float in space. The parallel lines of the stringers combined with the rectangular treads create a strong geometric rhythm, while contrasting tones between metal and wood add visual interest. Echoing the stair design, the horizontal stainless steel rod railing and wood newels reinforce the openness and contrasting tones. The open design maintains transparency and light flow, transforming a simple connection between floors into an eye-catching architectural focal point and perfect example of how thoughtful design can elevate an entire entry space. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

See what our client say about Paul Lopa Designs: We recently remodeled a studio we purchased for guests who visit us. The project included the demolition of a kitchenettem and a bathroom, and the installation of new cabinets, wood flooring, granite countertops, appliances, wood molding and a custom Murphy bed in the sleeping area. My husband and I wanted a contractor who specializes in high end kitchens. We hired Paul Lopa (who had previously done two projects for us—a kitchen remodel and a bathroom remodel) as we were extremely impressed with his work, from beginning to end. For the studio project, Paul brought many samples to our home before the project commenced. It was very easy for us to select the materials, from the wood used for the cabinets and Murphy bed to the granite countertop and wood floor. We were also very pleased with the appliances he helped us select as well, as the kitchen was transformed into a full-fledged kitchen with an eat-at counter. Paul helped us select custom marble for the bathroom which is gorgeous! Every suggestion he made was great. The studio is now worthy of being photographed by Architectural Digest! Paul and his crew are very professional. His staff is friendly and were always on time. Upon completion of the job, the whole area was clean and ready to use. Paul was always accessible and available to answer questions whenever we had one. We were impressed that the project finished on time and on budget! We will definitely use Paul for all future work. He is a consummate professional and very nice to work with.

This was a large sliding door that we wanted to be able to see out during the day but get diffused privacy and sun control. The Hunter Douglas Pirouette worked perfectly on this door. We treated this door with three shades so that you could just raise up one side to go in and out the door without having to open up the entire wall of glass. At night this can be closed for full privacy and it gives you the look of a roman shade. These shades were done with power view so no cords would be hanging down into the glass.
