The new construction house is more than 10,000 square feet, and was beautifully built by Bodenchak Design and Build. Each room (including all of the bathrooms, and there are many) is decorated by a different interior designer. It’s fun to walk through and capture the personalities of all of the creative participants through their work. We enjoyed meeting our fellow designers and seeing what they had come up with for their spaces. We were assigned the design of the the Front Entry. It’s a very large two story space, with a dramatic modern glass bannister paired with rift cut oak millwork.

Like the majority of our projects, the design for these spaces began with the rugs. We were looking for something bright and cheerful, and were thrilled to find two different Swedish inspired carpets from Doris Leslie Blau.

We had a blast pulling it all together in a short amount of time. Of course, we really prefer designing spaces more specifically for the real people who live in them. Watching our clients live in the spaces we’ve collaborated with them on is where the joy lies.
