The parson's chair goes to the beach in this photo! This custom slipcover was created using a stylized blue and white intermittent stripe with navy blue piping and a solid navy blue band along the tailored skirt. with this crisp, clean printed canvas fabric. As mentioned in other pics featured of parson's chairs, the choices of location are endless depending on your creativity and choice of fabrics.

Losing large specimen trees is never desirable. But when the unimaginable happens, we are presented with an opportunity to rethink and refresh, even in traditional residential settings. We replaced the lawn area beneath the remaining London plane with a fine fescue seed mix. Our design strategy was to hold space and create immediate impact while reducing maintenance needs as the landscape matured. Into this base, we planted evergreen basal foliage, long bloomers and early spring/late fall color to create an immersive all-season groundcover that will slowly intermingle. Annually, this low mow is cut no lower than 4” (thereby safeguarding habitat) while the tidily trimmed perimeter utilizes remnant turf grass as visible cues to care. Dissecting the rectilinear green space, permeable hardscaping offers a gently curved path towards the front entryway; an invitation to pause and observe the landscape’s diverse textures and activity up close. Within which, a legacy planting of new specimen trees. Traditional shrub heavy foundation plantings are often static and rigid; this perennial rich redesign is structured yet airy to retain design cohesion with the naturalistic stylized meadow and offer vibrant textural all-season interest. This project blends different landscape styles to create a biodiverse habitat that is ecologically beneficial, beautiful and resilient. In high summer, a doe finds refuge for her fawn while the family’s children delight in the buzzing activity of smaller inhabitants, native bees and assorted pollinators, that now call this habitat home.

A master bedroom with rich color, texture and personality! With a colorful master bathroom that blends the perfect matte finish, semi-primitive blast of pattern with rich, saturated jewel tones and a little calacatta gold tile – determining the best fabrics and finishes for the master bedroom felt like a HUGE challenge. How do you stand up to something so fabulously unique and still create a soft respite for someone to slumber?! This bedroom was a small space with existing Vetrazzo floors and an entire wall dedicated to floor-to-ceiling fixed glass pane windows. Between the cracks in the plaster ceiling and the lacquered pink dresser we knew we had our work cut out. Saturated colors create a fairy tale bedroom Fast forward to finding the perfect, sumptuously soft evergreen mohair for the headboard and furry tuffets for the foot of the bed. Texture became the name of the game and a certain level of color variation had to tie through from selection to selection. Cladding the walls with a gilt woven cloth wall covering that also pulled a sort of skin-tone clay from detail found in the Vetrazzo flooring (OMG! so pretty!) and grounding everything with a sort of deco-inspired one-of-a-kind wool rug. The layers of unexpected style helped develop a more collected – less stylized – feeling overall. Then it was bye-bye to the pink lacquer! A local artisan worked on a faux finish for the custom dresser that the client had already invested in and we just gave it a refresh with a deep bronze finish. Balancing this piece with the playful silk tassel pendant lights that frame a beautiful original painting of red headed queens by artist Nancy Rhodes Harper. Exquisite lighting for a sexy master bedroom Additionally, the swirl and swoop of the forged metal light fixture overhead play off the more structured spinal-column type pattern of the black out window treatments that truly act as their own piece of art. Each element has its place and plays with the visual and textural aesthetics that make our client (and our team) swoon. Want more colorful and moody interior spaces?

Bathroom - bathroom idea in Miami

Bathroom wallpaper installation – Tracy, CA. In this Craftsman-style bathroom, we used printed wallpaper with repeating stylized florals and earthy colors. Installed behind the vanity and trimmed around molding, it connects with the room’s oak cabinetry and vintage fixtures to complete the handcrafted look.

Our Vancouver client desired a sophisticated yet peaceful setting to display her collection of Buddha's and Chinoiserie, so we created a transitional setting using clean lines mixed with traditional pieces and a variety of complimentary prints in soft tones of sea and teal blues for pillows. Another stylized version of the quatrefoil is repeated in the linens in her master bedroom in blue and cream. The upholstered bed and shams are the perfect backdrop for the distinctive pattern. Layered tailored drapes and woven shades afford privacy, optimal light control and softness to all rooms and metallic accents add texture and dimension. The overall feel is a relaxed global chic!

For a fresh take on dining, consider spicing up a traditional table’s recipe for success. The Corin is a modern-day version of the classic trestle table—it has heft but not too much; it’s streamlined, but has ample surface space. Add stylized Cyra chairs with dramatic backs for a taste of midcentury style—a comfortable upholstered bench would look at home here, too. Want more drama? Add our grand Capiz chandelier to the menu.

A wonderful antique Art Deco slip shade chandelier, dating from the 1930’s, and found in a home in Chicago, IL. This five-light chandelier begins with a canopy ornamented with flowers, volutes and stylized foliate details; coming down in a chain to an oversized finial composed of abstract curling volutes, a motif repeated in its dangling bottom finial. The chandelier's pale amber slipper shades feature raised abstract foliate details and curling lines, complementing the abstracted floral design on the body nicely. This light fixture is in excellent condition; it has been professionally rewired and comes with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. The glass shades are also in very good condition with some fleabites around the edges of the shades. This chandelier is 18-3/4” wide, 19-1/4” tall and 35” long overall. NC2167

For our mid-century modern home project our clients were seeking a refreshing kitchen update. The clients’ wishlist included a more efficient floor plan, a vaulted ceiling, an organized and accessible pantry, shelving for a pottery collection, modernized lighting, a makeover of the recessed open shelves, a fresh color palette, and dining table and chairs in keeping with mid-century design. Our design solutions were to remove the wall between the hallway and pantry, vault the ceiling, eliminate one doorway into the kitchen to create more wall space for cabinetry, and to replace the peninsula with an island for better function and flow. The tambour cabinet offers easy access to stored appliances. A fresh interpretation on the mid-century design palette includes custom quarter-sawn Sucupira veneer for cabinet faces contrasted with black super matte cabinetry, leather finish black absolute granite countertops and minimalist black cabinetry hardware. Stylized organic backsplash tile adds color, texture and interest. Genuine linoleum flooring is in keeping with the look. Floating shelves provide display for the pottery and basket collections. Recessed open shelves clad with Sucupira veneer and a mirrored back panel became the bar/entertainment and “office” areas which can be alternately closed off by the black stained custom sliding barn door. The open kitchen plan integrates nicely with the dining area resulting in a spacious, efficient, workable space fulfilling the clients’ wishlist.

The Hollywood is a lovely and large Art Deco fixture best suited to commercial and public spaces, or expansive foyers of two-story homes. While the shade it's shown with steals the show, we love the Hollywood's stylized fan motif above the shade holder.
