Refined Home Office: Part 4

Removing the never played piano and floating the desk in the center of the office gave the illusion of more space.

A new tall cut work black bookcase was added to accentuate the tall ceilings and holds books as well as frames. A few chunky accessories broke up the monotony of all reading material and created interest.

The homeowners' chair was re-positioned to face the desk. A soft gold throw brings out the wall
 color, a flower pillow brings texture and contrast. We gathered family photos from every wall, making one collage composition to state the importance of the collection.

Clarifying a Wedding Vision

Planning a wedding can be difficult for a bride on the go, especially for one who goes to school full time. Our bride (who is currently a college student) needed to make decisions while preparing for final exams. She decided to have a pre-wedding run through with her coordinator, lighting technician, caterer, and florist at the venue.

This meeting helped refine our bride's wedding vision. The lighting was planned in tandem with our flowers to stay true to the bridal color palate. Linens were chosen and menu items sampled. Everyone left with a clear idea of what the big day will be like. Now our bride can focus on passing her finals!

We brought in timeless landscape art subdued in color. The addition of a wall clock anchored a weaved motif chest, holding a printer, papers, and other objects that otherwise clutter a space. Nicely contained!

Refined Home Office: Part 1

A young professional couple was ready for a grown up elegant office that spoke of sophistication. We used an existing chair, kept the family art, and re-purposed a few things. However, most of the furniture needed updating. We started with a timeless rug under a solid black desk and a new upholstered chair as the anchor of the room.  

A girthy black lamp with a soft pleated shade appealed to both husband and wife. This was exactly what the room needed for function and scale.

Navy and Pink: a Color Palate Love Story

 Feminine, elegant pink and bold, classic navy blue was a color palate match made in heaven for this wedding.  Our bride preferred the accent of a simple gold container for her centerpieces.

Winter Fairy-Tale Romance

Our bride wanted the luxuriant blossoms of garden roses as well as the stark beauty of icy branches in winter. The result was an extravagant confection of crystals, mercury glass, candles, fairy lights and regal bouquets adorning the entire event!

Each bouquet was sweetly perfumed by silky cream colored garden roses. Delicate orchids gracefully complimented the textured elements of brazilia berries, all enthroned in evergreens.

The centerpieces heightened the romance and intimacy in the room with soft candlelight. Cylinder vases were wrapped in birch branches and crystal bands, then filled with water. Floating candles made the tables sparkle and cast woodsy shadows everywhere. White hydrangeas added the softness of snow to keep with the wintery elegance of the theme.

Mercury and clear glass votive candles brought more light to each table while accenting the centerpieces. 

Fluted silver vases imitated enchanted forest trees with their height; sprouting hydrangea and birch branches for added drama.

The effect of the design as a whole made the space enchanting and intimate; an event fit for a princess!
