Painted Woodwork, Moldings, Wall Glazing, Ceiling Stains
Interior Designer, Anne Figueroa of Figueroa Design, www.annefigueroadesign.com
Our client had a house filled with newly installed white paint-grade wood paneling, white doors & trim. The interior designer asked us to come up with a sample of faux wood to show the client in tones recommended to suit our client's taste. The end result of their approved samples was this 4-layer wood finish. We also recommended we add a bit of hand-painted artwork to the wood arch panel to give it a little extra interest. We gold leafed the crown molding, glazed the dining room walls red, the ceilings gold and the rest of the house walls the same soft gold faux.
For more glimpses at what can be done with paints, stains, glazes, faux finishes and Trompe L'oeil artwork, please visit Jacqueline Coburn's Interior Art project files and take a look around at our award-winning creations. Venetian Plasters, wall glazing, wood finishes, hand painted wallcoverings, painted floors, fine commissioned paintings, art walls, marbelizing, graining & gilding... and more. We hope to inspire you through conscious design!

INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE: Certificate of Merit
PROJECT: City View
CLIENT: Faros Properties
ARCHITECTURE FIRM: Perkins Eastman
ENGINEERS: Atlantic Engineering Services; Allen & Shariff
CONTRACTORS: Turner Construction Company
PHOTOGRAPHER: Perkins Eastman
DESCRIPTION: The interior renovation of City View Apartments restores an I.M. Pei-designed apartment tower to its original modernist design aspiration. The 1960s brutalist structure had lost its design purity during various renovations. The design team conducted a full renovation of the 11,000 sf lobby to create an array of on-site amenities for residents while respecting the building’s architectural heritage, taking cues from both published I.M. Pei works and other modernist interiors.
JURY COMMENTS: A very respectful update of a project whose original design was showing its age. Much of the design of the space is beautiful, simple, and tasteful.

Virginia AIA Merit Award for Excellence in Residential Design | What appeared to be a simple, worn-out, early 20th century stucco cottage was to be modestly renovated as a weekend retreat. But when the contractor and architects began pulling away the interior wall finishes, they discovered a log cabin at its core (believed to date as far back as the 1780’s) and a newer addition (circa 1920’s) at the rear where the site slopes down. Initial plans were scrapped, and a new project was born that honors the original construction while accommodating new infrastructure and the clients’ modern tastes.
The original log cabin was entirely concealed behind painted wood paneling on the interior and stucco on the exterior. Logs were cleaned with a wire brush to maintain much of the original whitewash and chinking between logs was carefully repaired, replaced and stained with tea to the perfect color. One of the log cabin’s original windows, boarded up when the 20th century addition was built, was revealed. Minimalist details were devised to contrast with the carefully uncovered and restored materials. A custom fabricated modern fireplace surround adds simplicity and clean lines as a contrast to the texture of the log walls.

A punch of color is added with a bright red splash fabricated out of acrylic paneling. This red accent is echoed in the globe chandelier suspended above the island. Unique sculptural hardware pieces in brushed nickel and black finish off the kitchen and add a touch of whimsy.

The kitchen that was once used only for making coffee has turned into the focal point of the home. The kitchen now truly reflects the personality of the homeowners and their unique sense of style.

2012 NARI CAPITAL COTY, MERIT AWARD WINNER, RESIDENTIAL BATH $30,000 to $60,000
The owners of this contemporary home in Centreville, Virginia, had a dated master bathroom suite that didn’t meet their modern tastes or their needs.
To make the changes they wanted, the design team at Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes determined that the room would need to be gutted. All the partition walls had to go, as did the old whirlpool tub. And all of the plumbing and fixtures had to be relocated to new positions to meet the new design’s criteria.
The clients previously replaced the bathroom windows with glass blocks. Thus, contemporary glass blocks were used instead of partition walls to add openness to this new bathroom layout.
Large polished limestone tiles were used on the bathroom floors and walls, and stylish glass tiles were used as an accent. A free-standing oval tub adds to the room’s contemporary look and saves a lot of space as well. A two-person shower stall with a modern body spray shower system was also installed.
Custom built high level cabinetry and vanities, and modern lighting—both recessed and hanging fixtures— contribute greatly to the success of the final project.

This 1965 home has been updated to meet the needs of a family who loves their location, but had outgrown their space. MOSS worked closely with the homeowners to expand their existing footprint and achieve their goals of:
-An eat-in kitchen with plenty of room to accommodate all family members
-An open, informal space for entertaining
-Maximizing deck space for use in at least three seasons
The result is a stunning new space that reflects our customers' lifestyle and personal taste.
