Located in one of İzmir’s most exclusive villas, this refined project brings together architectural elegance and the technical excellence of Serapool porcelain. Inspired by nature, the Piazza Green Series enhances the swimming area with soothing green hues and a natural stone texture, creating a tranquil atmosphere that blends harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. Composed of 100% porcelain tiles, the surfaces feature a water absorption rate below 0.5%, ensuring long-lasting durability. With superior UV resistance, chemical resistance, and thermal shock durability, the materials stand up to outdoor conditions. A PTV ≥ 45° anti-slip rating guarantees maximum safety on wet surfaces. Porcelain stair non-slip pieces and porcelain pool copings deliver both aesthetic continuity and functional integrity at transition points. More than just a swimming space, this application redefines luxury living by uniting elegance, safety, and comfort in a single, cohesive design.

With exceptional technical experience, I am routinely called upon to manage a diverse range of installation projects. I work quickly and most houses usually only take a couple hours. Generally there are two job scenarios: if you know where everything is to be hung then I can start as soon as I arrive, and if you are unsure of where you would like your art hung, I will start by getting a sense of what art work you have and do a walk through of your home to get an understanding of the space. Once we have decided what layout makes the most of your collection, I start installation.

The Marin Villa Pool Project stands out with a dynamic design approach that blends shades of blue with modern architecture. The Marin Series used on the pool floor adds a lively and clear effect to the water through transitions of different blue tones. With its Low Water Absorption, the surface ensures long-lasting use and provides resistance to UV Resistance, chemicals, and thermal shocks. The PTV ≥ 45° Non-slip value offers safe use in wet areas. In the transitions, Marin Series Outer Trim, Scoth Outer Corner, and Outer Angle Corner elements ensure both technical and visual integrity. Along the pool edges, Pool Garden Grey Petit Carre Copings and monoblock hidden grating organize the overflow lines, offering both functionality and aesthetic continuity. Around the pool, Pool Garden Grey Porcelain Anti Slip Terrace Tiles complete the architectural lines of the space with the modern impact of grey tones.

Atherton has many large substantial homes - our clients purchased an existing home on a one acre flag-shaped lot and asked us to design a new dream home for them. The result is a new 7,000 square foot four-building complex consisting of the main house, six-car garage with two car lifts, pool house with a full one bedroom residence inside, and a separate home office /work out gym studio building. A fifty-foot swimming pool was also created with fully landscaped yards. Given the rectangular shape of the lot, it was decided to angle the house to incoming visitors slightly so as to more dramatically present itself. The house became a classic u-shaped home but Feng Shui design principals were employed directing the placement of the pool house to better contain the energy flow on the site. The main house entry door is then aligned with a special Japanese red maple at the end of a long visual axis at the rear of the site. These angles and alignments set up everything else about the house design and layout, and views from various rooms allow you to see into virtually every space tracking movements of others in the home. The residence is simply divided into two wings of public use, kitchen and family room, and the other wing of bedrooms, connected by the living and dining great room. Function drove the exterior form of windows and solid walls with a line of clerestory windows which bring light into the middle of the large home. Extensive sun shadow studies with 3D tree modeling led to the unorthodox placement of the pool to the north of the home, but tree shadow tracking showed this to be the sunniest area during the entire year. Sustainable measures included a full 7.1kW solar photovoltaic array technically making the house off the grid, and arranged so that no panels are visible from the property. A large 16,000 gallon rainwater catchment system consisting of tanks buried below grade was installed. The home is California GreenPoint rated and also features sealed roof soffits and a sealed crawlspace without the usual venting. A whole house computer automation system with server room was installed as well. Heating and cooling utilize hot water radiant heated concrete and wood floors supplemented by heat pump generated heating and cooling. A compound of buildings created to form balanced relationships between each other, this home is about circulation, light and a balance of form and function. Photo by John Sutton Photography.

2017 Winner of Detroit Home magazine's "Best Home Theater" Spire Integrated Systems awe-inspiring home theater room created to showcase the latest in high performing technology. The design of the room was in two parts: aesthetics and technical. The amazing sound is due to 7 in wall and in ceiling Meridian DSP speakers plus an audio processor. To enhance the sound, they hung Artnovion acoustic panels on the walls. They installed a hidden 4K Projector plus a 144" CinemaScope screen for amazing picture quality. They added custom leather reclining sofa, chaise and chairs plus a beautiful wood cabinet to house the audio/visual processors and sub woofers. For the perfect ambience they added blue LED lighting in the ceiling and steps.

This home’s design has Craftsman style at its core, with contemporary accents: cedar ship-lap siding with quartzite veneer on the exterior, interior walls of Marmorino plaster, and Albertini Lift-N-Slide doors for which to enjoy outdoor/indoor living. Other features include an infinity-edge pool, a large wine cellar, a standing seam metal roof, travertine paving and pool coping, and bluestone pathways. The project also included remodeling the Spring House, an out building over 100 years old. Used for entertaining, it now houses a pizza oven on the patio. A petanque court and large, contemporary art pieces complete the exterior landscaping for the residence.

Home built by JMA (Jim Murphy and Associates); designed by Ned Forrest, Forrest Architects. Photo credit: Tim Maloney, Technical Imagery Studios. This home's Mediterranean design provides thick, plastered masonry walls, deeply recessed windows and cast concrete pavers that help to keep the home cool and comfortable in the hot summer months. The winters are equally moderate, thanks to the radiant heating system in the floors. The smoothness of the exterior plaster walls is juxtaposed against the rough texture in the dark, wooden siding. This rough texture is echoed by the board-formed concrete in the home's foundation, columns and column wall which overlooks the solar-heated pool. In addition to the two-story, three bedroom home, the project includes an upper floor studio with its own exterior staircase, a detached garage and the swimming pool and patio.

Aesthetic Value: This rustic stairway and balustrade provide a dramatic focal point to the entry area of a mountain home. The burnt treads and metal oiled iron accent the stone wall and water feature under the stair. Stair Safety: Consistent run at the walk line throughout the dancing winders offers comfortable stride on an asymmetrical stair layout. An additional hammered iron handrail provides continuous graspability despite the oversized guard rail. Lighting under each tread. Quality: All solid white oak construction of wood components. Hand forged iron newel caps in conjunction with intricate tree bark design elements and custom twisted hammered balusters. Custom finish provided on the wood and iron components. Technical Challenge: Complex geometry of asymmetrical stair layout, complicated tread notches into the stringer, concealed lighting chases, sand blasted and torched wood prior to application of finish, intense design consultation, and distant jobsite for turnkey project.
