CANOPY BEDS

A canopy bed is the perfect addition to any bedroom, no matter your style. 

“When Lara Michelle began working with this young family, their vision was clear: They wanted “a super glamorous, modern, chic design with an all-white, silver, and light gray color scheme and lots of bling and shimmering finishes,” says Michelle. But, their directive presented some inspiring challenges.

“I had to look for luxury fabrics that would be stain resistant and hold up to the rigors of a young family,” says Michelle. For families with young kids, she usually sticks with darker fabrics and rugs, so she had to ensure that the light-colored materials would hold up. Luckily, she says, “the high performance, indoor/outdoor fabrics that are available today really make it possible to use light colors and not worry they will be ruined in a few months.” 

Design Tip: Michelle advises homeowners to bring in a professional to avoid making costly mistakes.

“There’s a million things that can go wrong when renovating, building or redecorating a new home,” says Michelle. “If you don’t have someone with a great deal of experience, as well as talent, to guide you, things can go wrong very quickly, which costs money and time.” 

 

 

EUROPEAN INSPIRED DETAILS

by D2 Interiors
A total home renovation, Denise Davies of D2 Interieurs says, “High- lights include a light filled living room complete with a hanging bubble chair. It is a real showstopper and the first thing you see as you enter the home.” Davies included a mix of custom furniture, vintage picks and featured artwork—including pieces already belonging to the homeown- er. “The clients love the home’s retro design and the flow of natural light throughout. We were able to realize the clients’ vision and also stay true to the classic midcentury modern design.”

 

MULTI FUNCTIONAL SPACES

by Guillermo Gomez Architect (GGA)
The homeowners were very specific in wanting this new structure to serve as an entertaining space and a guest house on their Long Island property. Gomez employed a great deal of modern technology to achieve this and maximize the functionality of this specific footprint on their property. “We designed a special airplane hangar glass door that, when lifted, served as an addional exte- rior covered porch,” says Gomez. Working with historic and coverage restrictions, they had to get creative with the angles and design of the building. For instance, an efficient cast iron modern stove, which burns wood slowly, heats up the space, including the upstairs bed- room, and at the same time, also serves as an interesting sculptural element.

 

PANTONE 2020 COLOR

by Prudence Home + Design
The homeowners wanted their rooms—specifically the family room and powder room—to reflect their love of the colors blue and white. “The family room needed to be super comfortable since this is where they spend most of their time as a family and with friends—yet they wanted it to be something that felt timeless, so they wouldn’t tire of the design in a few years,” says Prudence Bailey. “A mandatory item was the sectional sofa. They knew they wanted this in addition to the blue and white color scheme.” Using navy as a foundational color is something Bailey sug- gests everyone consider. “Navy is such a gorgeous and versatile color!” she says “I love how it balances all the white we used in this design yet still feels soft. Blue is a true neutral and I often use it instead of a gray or brown as a neutral for a space. It can feel soft and cozy as in this design, or dramatic and daring in other designs.” 

NATURAL MATERIALS

by Mark Finlay Interiors 
Bringing a beachy feel to this inland home was a huge part of the design process for Mark Finlay Interiors—as well as keeping the house as healthy as possible. “Some of the family members had severe allergies, so it was important to make sure there were no chemicals in the fabrics, and the furniture frames had the proper glues and solvents,” says Finlay. This guest room allowed the owners to push the envelope and make it a fun, inviting space for their guests. “The bohemian look afforded the design an opportunity to utilize natural weaves, colors and materials,” he adds. Finlay was able to help the homeowner see that neutral doesn’t have to be monotone. Says Finlay: “This client came in wanting an all-neutral palette. In the end she realized she really did love color.” 

WALLPAPER

by Muse Interiors 
 “Wallpaper is a show-stopper—you see it from the foyer of the home, so they can enjoy it every time they come in the front door. Wallpaper in general provides texture and interest; we use it in a myriad of areas, including the backs of bookcases, just for an extra layer of interest.”

 

BOLD TEXTURES

by Shannon Murray Interiors
“Balance and proportion is key in both pattern and mate- rials,” says Murray. “Texture is my favorite element to play with in a room. Mixing texture gives surface interest when placed alongside multiple patterns. Painting a small room a bold color can make it seem larger and more interesting to the eye.”

Here’s a round-up of a few of my favorite countertop materials we’ve used in my projects!  Pental Quartz, a great alternative to natural stone for hard working kitchens due to it’s strength and durability.  Tuscan White Marble is such a gorgeous stone with rich variations of neutral tones, we used it in this home office desk top in a honed finish.  Calcite Azul Extra marble speaks for itself with blues, grays, and whites, great for bathrooms and bar tops.  #Cristallo Quartzite is a strong natural stone comparable to granite and should not be confused with man made quartz materials, it’s richness and depth is stunning and great for kitchens!  We all know and still love Caesarstone for almost any application 💜 XO Lara
