Creative organization of space, maximizing daylight, inspired cabinetry and furnishings make this major remodel a beguiling home to walk into. Extraordinary clients, more often than not, make for extrordinary projects. This is one of those cases where an unassuming "ranch style" house was transformed. Photo by Neil Warne

Bordeaux Fireplace Mantel This graceful mantel conjures romantic images of 19th Century France. The Bordeaux blends delicate curves with smooth, clean lines to produce an elegant, yet simple fireplace. On a cold winter night, you and your best friend can stay warm and cozy by the fire.

The room was dark brown, which was fine for a while ... but for an entranceway and a room without windows, dark was not an appropriate long term choice. There was a feng shui request in this re-decorating project, earth tones were not welcome in this area of the home, black, white, metal and water were preferable colors/elements. The walls are 2 layers of metallic paint, the undercoat is a silver, the top coat is a gunmetal mixed with the silver to create an uneven tone. A wide wallpaper paste brush was used to create a vertical linear pattern. The Larson Juhl gold leaf framed mirror is covered in adhesive car vinyl. The Ikea unit is enveloped in an adhesive mural, printed by muralsyourway.com, the artist is David Bromstad. The chair seats were recovered in a silver vinyl fabric. The rug is from overstock.com. The capiz chandelier is from West Elm. The table base is an Ikea take on the Eero Saarinen tulip table. In the "before" room, there were glass tables cluttered with everyday items and "to do" piles of paper. The goal was to have storage in this room to hide the clutter. There was not an outlet on the wall where the Ikea unit sits, and there was not a budget to have the prewar wall fitted with electricity, so an extension cord crosses the room under a grey cord concealer.
