My client purchased a beautiful condo–the finishes were gorgeous–the elevator opened to his entryway of  hand chiseled Travertine and moved on to Michelangelo floors, a view of the water and so much more.  What a treat to work in such a space.  My client wanted to play with a palette of neutrals–brown, beige, tan, black and so forth.  Masculine, clean and comfortable for entertaining or relaxing.

This was especially fun because with the exception of a few accessories, we started from scratch.  Here we have the entry with a clean lined cherry console, a nice thick rug and a mix of textures and neutrals set the stage for the rest of the home.

Dining Room

The entry opens to the kitchen and dining room where we continued our use of clean lines, neutrals and a mix of textures for interest.

Dining Room & Living Room

The kitchen, dining room and living room are connected and needed to flow together.  A Chilewich runner adds some modern texture.  Planters with jade plants bring some nature into the room.

Living Room

Travertine top tables and comfortable seating.

Living room

A pair of tall floor mirrors reflect the view.  My client found this wonderful art in a Seattle restaurant and bought it on the spot.

Office

The home office has a view (makes work so much nicer!)  A Stendig wall calendar lets you know the date at a glance.  We chose a classic rug in beautiful browns and other neutrals.  The chairs are comfortable and light enough to carry to the living room for extra seating.

Home Theater

The home theater room is off the kitchen.  My client had a media wall installed with beverage coolers and a projection screen.  We added a deep, comfortable sofa and comfortable leather chairs with low backs that can be easily turned around if needed.  The reclaimed wood coffee table adds texture as do the shag rug and ash wall art.

Home Theater

The screen door opens onto a deck.  He had blackout shades installed for summer time movie viewing.

Master Bedroom

Light furniture, a big leather chair and metal wall art play off the beautiful fireplace in the master bedroom.
