This black and white photograph presents a close-up, angled view of a modern architectural detail. The focus is a section of a building's facade, constructed from panels arranged in a grid-like pattern. Each panel contains a perfectly circular perforation, creating a rhythmic repetition of negative space. The stark contrast between the solid panels and the dark voids emphasizes the geometric design, while the grayscale tones highlight the play of light and shadow across the textured surface. The perspective of the shot draws the eye diagonally across the frame, enhancing the sense of depth and dimension within the repetitive pattern. The high-contrast black and white treatment accentuates the clean lines and precise forms of the architectural element. The uniformity of the perforations creates a sense of order and structure, typical of modern and minimalist architectural styles. The subtle variations in shading on the metallic surfaces suggest a play of light, hinting at a three-dimensional quality and preventing the image from appearing flat. This creates a compelling visual texture, inviting the viewer to explore the interplay of shapes and tones within the monochromatic composition.

Vanderbilt is a project in a building designed by COOKFOX. According to COOKFOX it was “Designed to pull in nature at all scales for the health and well-being of its residents” The resident of this home frequently travels the world for work so It was important to us to make the space as peaceful and calming as possible. Continuing COOKFOX’s emphasis on the importance of the users well being in the design of the interiors. We also wanted the space to feel a little dreamy and utopian. For this we kept things very soft and neutral, allowing the artworks and greenery to command viewing. The design was kept more minimal to allow the user/viewer to spend time with each unique piece while the use of curves carry you gently through the space.

This large entry allows time for the person entering to really soak in the 360 degree waterfront views they are faced with the second they walk through the restored vintage door..

The view continues through the kitchen island seating and beyond to completely captivate the viewer.

This beautiful, warm kitchen presents a modern, yet traditionally, country flare with all the appliances and storage to make it a dream kitchen. Cherry cabinetry lines the walls and hides away convenient, pull-out storage units. This kitchen invites the viewer to come in and sit a while.

Loft Master Bedroom with elegant curved walk-in closet and custom-designed viewing platform. For the viewing platform the hickory flooring was carried up and used for the stair treads and platform floor, a metal and cable stairway and rail system was fabricated to mimic the floating stairway coming from the lower level, and sliding doors underneath create ample storage for this open concept bedroom. Because open designs often provide a storage challenge- for additional storage, we converted two RTA pantries into another closet which also serves to dilineate the sleeping area from the rest of the room. An upholstered 4-drawer platform bed and 2 drawer stacks converted to night stands add even more storage. The bulk head running on the long wall was covered with hickory flooring making it functionally multi-usage and a viewing porthole was created allowing a viewer to glimpse the riverfront outside from the 2nd floor. Finally, the detail of a hand-crafted curving shelf large enough to place plants or sculptures upon was added to the top of the stairway facing the curved walk-in closet. All design and installation for Up-fit by Solar Wind Designs and Cat Manolis. www.solarwinddesigns.com Photos by Cat Manolis.

The gentle curve of this staircase sets the tone, preparing the viewer for artistry. Red oak treads follow the gentle arc of the staircase, their radius nosing softening what could have been a hard geometric statement into something more inviting. Vertical black metal balusters rise in clean rhythm alongside, grounding the warmth of the oak with a contemporary edge. What ties it all together is the continuous handrail, a custom profile that flows uninterrupted through the stairwell, transitioning seamlessly into the newel without missing a beat. The result is a staircase that feels sculpted rather than assembled. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

The client really wanted to use the hallway as a place to show some of their art collection. By painting the base in the same color as the walls it creates a block of color which stops the viewer and invites them to linger as opposed to having the base continuous and moving you through the space.

We choose glass shelves to allow the light to diffuse the colors onto the back-splash and to make the bottles the focal point. This gives the space an ever changing look as bottles are replaced and different colors are reflected. The back-splash is a mixture of polished and rough stone which also reflects light to the viewer as they move about the space.
