Ask Your Neighbors Not to Water Your Plants While You're Away Part 3: Subtle Sophistication

Give your outdoor spaces an artistic twist with contemporary themed silk arrangements. A cement container of boxwood foliage creates a clean lined minimalist look. This is an excellent canvas for custom variations. We added birch branches and vine orbs to merge nature with still life to complete the modern composition. The arrangement can also be adapted with the seasons for any holiday. 

Quirky Spaces Can Function

  

This little corner sits between the kitchen and living room and begged to be finished and functional. Our requirements were linen storage and light. 

A tall linen chest that supports a slick based lamp was placed to conceal vents and provide the necessary storage. When the space calls for larger gatherings, more comfortable pull-up seating is readily available.  

Scarcely Filled Wall Gets Function and Style

The homeowners knew something was needed in this space with under scaled art, but had functioning issues that needed to be addressed as well.  This was a "drop zone" coming in from the garage that shared space with the kitchen. We needed a surface on which to set mail, keys, etc. and it needed to be beautiful to look at.

"Contemporary and not an image" was the request for art. Our job was to coordinate finishes and scale it accordingly. This mixed metals composition did the trick.
The buffet was brought in to house a few drop zone essentials and a place for extra lighting. We framed the entire wall's composition by picking a lamp with a contemporary curve that speaks to the art but completes the whole frame.
A large scaled ceramic tray with silver fruits reveals the simple clean line message the clients wanted for their existing space.
