The Art of Bringing Harmony Into Your Home With Just a Stroke of Your Paintbrush. Award-winning South Florida Designer Jaime Galapo on creating serene spaces with Sherwin-Williams ® new Emerald ® Designer Edition™.
JAIME GALAPO Galapo Group Design @galapogroupdesign
As our lives get busy and complicated, how do we make our home a sanctuary? Color most defi nitely affects mood. For a tranquil and relaxing space, I recommend opting for natureinspired colors like muted blue, sage green, or my personal favorite — blush pink. These colors create a sense of peace and coordinate well with warm whites and grays. Which palette colors would you pair with eco-friendly spaces? I gravitate toward blues, warm neutrals, and whites, which represent other elements of the Earth. Using these palettes allows us to bring the outside in. How did you choose this rich color for your dining room? As an artist, it is very important for me to look at the space as a whole and incorporate all of its surrounding elements. Light, architecture, art, and nature all

play a role. I use blue quite a bit throughout my home, and with my dining room being an enclosed space, I was able to go bold and deep with the color. What about the Emerald ® Designer Edition™ collection did you really love? I was immediately attracted to the beautiful colors and the lush texture of the product. I also love that it is a paint and primer in one, antimicrobial, and low VOC. It’s a collection I can feel good about recommending to my clients.
LET’S GET DOWN TO THE DINING ROOM DETAILS The space is anchored by a Lorie Ofi r work of art, which inspired the mix of items in the room. Jaime tried samples of blue and green hues, and when she put up Stargazer SW 9635, it was the perfect complement to the art. Layering in neutral elements like the teak table and the linen chairs balanced out the bold tone perfectly. VISIT EMERALDDESIGNER.COM TO EXPLORE THE PALETTES Stargazer SW 9635

Let the Light In Natural light in our homes has major impact on our overall happiness. That’s why we built every room of House Beautiful’s Whole Home Concept House in Colorado to be flooded with light, using the latest product innovations from Marvin.
A BRIGHT GATHERING SPACE The stunning Great Room, designed by Lucinda Loya Interiors, draws inspiration from its centerpiece: unobstructed views of the Rocky Mountains. Showcased from a wall of Marvin windows, the natural light spans the whopping 16-foot room height.
A FAMILY HANGOUT California-based Noz Nozawa anchored this space with a custom table and seating, framed by Marvin’s Ultimate Sliding Patio Doors. With easy access to the patio, this hangout provides seamless indoor/outdoor living options—something every smiling Coloradan will tell you is king.
SPONSORED BY
A RESTFUL SANCTUARY Natural light promotes daily rhythm, and the soothing main suite imagined by Georgantas Design is a case study in maximizing natural light. With private access to not one but two of the home’s patios and surrounding views of the natural landscape, this space is rooted in relaxation.

A FRESH PERSPECTIVE A space where you can slow down. Relax in the warm sunlight. Recharge with a calming breeze. At Marvin, we believe that where we spend our time affects how we feel. That's why we're always looking for new ways to bring natural light and fresh air deeper into the home, refreshing those spaces most important to you.

Scotch-Brite™ Advanced Soap Control Non-Scratch Dishwand: Won’t scratch— safe for non-stick

Steps to a Decluttered Kitchen
Whether you value a minimalist, slick cooking space or lean more into a cozy, more-is-more, shabby-chic beach house vibe, kitchen clutter is a no-no. Endless jars of spices, leaning towers of dishes, sinks crammed with all manner of brushes, sponges, and cloths—it’s gotta go. Here are four steps that’ll keep things streamlined, with help from Scotch-Brite™ Brand’s hardworking, multipurpose cleaning tools.
1
Go Vertical Open shelving is having a moment, but no one wants to stare at a precarious tower of dishware. Slotted organizers, which hold everything from your prized ceramics to baking sheets, can help you prioritize the pieces you use the most and keep them close at hand.
2
Everything but the Kitchen Sink Rid yourself of the various bottles and single-purpose scrubbers perched along your sink’s rim. Scotch-Brite™ Advanced Soap Control NonScratch Dishwand dispenses detergent and does the work of both a soft, non-scratch sponge and a more serious scrubber.
3
Scotch-Brite™ Glass Cooktop Pads: Chemical-free— works with just water
Invest in Uniform Storage Unpack dry goods like pasta, nuts, and flours into matching canisters, which both makes it super easy to see what you have and encourages buying in bulk, which will cut down on the amount of packaging coming into your house, period.
Visit scotch-brite.com for more tips and solutions.
4
Stock Up on MultiTasking Cleaners Instead of having a scrubby sponge, a steel wool pad, a soft rag, and who knows what else, go for the Scotch-Brite™ Glass Cooktop Pad. All the pyramid-textured scrubber needs is a sprinkle of water to work its magic, and it’s safe to use on all glass surfaces.

Kristen Peña: With COVID, we’ve seen a lot of our clients want additional space for, say, their parents, or even for themselves. In my own home we had an office in our ADU [an accessory dwelling unit, a secondary residence on her property] , and now with the kids at home we needed to spread out as a family, so we reclaimed it for a family hangout.
Jess Weeth: Where I work in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, which is normally a very quiet town, you see people have kind of been moving away from cities when they can and spending more time in their vacation homes. Natalie Kraiem: Right now I’m in an apartment we designed for my in-laws, and we’ve been living with them since March. One thing I do with all the multigenerational homes I work on is try to reconfigure spaces to maximize them. The apartment I’m in is a three bedroom, but we brought in bunk beds that can fold up—I’m working at the dining table. Everyone can find a space to work and live. Bryan Mason: My family’s home is multigenerational in a different way—in the sense that six generations of my family have lived in this home. My mother’s side came up from South Carolina in the ’40s or ’50s and purchased it. Everyone

lived there for awhile—it was that place that was always there if somebody needed a place to stay. Jo: I think that speaks to the question of, how do you create a space that not only makes different people happy, but pays respect to the past? Bryan: We actually found a crystal chandelier that had been in the basement and we were able to restore it and hang it there. It’s all about the story you tell. Chet Callahan: We’re working on a multigenera-
tional compound in Culver City with a family of four who wanted grandparents to be closer. They started looking for real estate, but L.A. is not very affordable, so they began thinking about how they could adapt their existing house to make it possible for all six of them to live together. So I felt like we were really responding to many real-world realities. Bryan: I think we have to ask whether this is just an interesting trend or the result of specific social and economic factors? And how do we address those? Chet: I do think that greater flexibility in home design could help create a more equitable future. If you can

Jo: Do you think we will see this desire to sort of hunker down with loved ones continue? Jess: I think we’ve been able to be more present in our homes, and maybe the takeaway is we don’t need to jump right back into that fast pace. Kristen: I have two daughters who I feel have appreciated family in a way I didn’t know would ever be possible. So I hope we are appreciating each other more. Chet: We’ve always needed our support systems and maybe COVID made us think more deeply about what those are.

cally proven to reduce stress, then everyone could stand to find room for a dedicated grow space. (Is it any surprise that there were more searches for “indoor garden” this past spring than ever before?) A true stand-alone greenhouse is an investment: Be prepared to spend between $1,000 and $5,000 for a good prefab option, advises Maya Haynie of deVINE Plantery, or closer to $20,000 for a custom build. But even turning a cozy corner into a plant zone can be therapeutic, especially as temperatures drop. Turn the page to learn more about full-size and small-scale options. —Hadley Mendelsohn

Convert a Space With a few upgrades, you can repurpose a garage or sunroom as a growing area, like Office Ou did here. Insulation or heating, double-paned windows or UV-filtering film, and a shade system are all key, say Haynie and designer Roger Higgins.
Make it Mini
Start Fresh A freestanding greenhouse with a balance of sun and shade gives the most control over growing conditions. This structure by Dan Pearson Studio maximizes space (there’s room for two rows of plants and a center walkway) and has a pitched roof, so snow can slide right off.
ALL THREE ARE APPENABLED!
AND FOR SMALL SPACES... You don’t need acreage to cultivate a garden year-round. Assemble a mini plant wall in a sunny corner (designer Corey Damen Jenkins used a Crate & Barrel wall shelf at left), or try a compact hydroponic system that allows you to grow just about anything, anywhere, without the mess of soil.

Build a Better Bedroom With so many daily distractions, downshifting into sleep mode seems tougher than ever. If your bedroom isn’t set up to soothe, it’s hard to get the quality rest you crave. But, thanks to a few design-driven choices, you can get more shut-eye. “An ideal bedroom provides an environment for rest, positivity, and relaxation,” says interior designer Natalie Kraiem. From going all-in on a Stearns & Foster mattress to ditching the screens, here are four easy ways to make your space more serene.
The Rest Is Easy Follow these simple principles to prep your room for maximum zzz’s. 1. Invest in a Quality Mattress When it comes to getting a good night’s sleep, “the mattress is the most important element,” says Kraiem. “My key recommendation is to source one from a company with a good, longlasting reputation, like Stearns & Foster.” 2. Layer Your Lighting Kraiem favors a mix, from table lamps and reading sconces to recessed lights and chandeliers. Try bulbs with lower wattages and dimmers to control the mood. To block outside light, Kraiem suggests lightweight curtains or Roman shades with blackout lining. 3. Pick a Peaceful Palette A bedroom’s color scheme can affect your mood and routine. Kraiem tends toward soothing hues, like shades of blue, ivory, mauve, and gray, with light bedding to anchor the room. “White and ivory sheets are classics and make the bed feel clean and crisp,” she says. 4. Go Screen-Free Most of us are guilty of screens in the bedroom (no shame, just reality!). But blue light from electronics can interfere with your circadian rhythms, so try to check them at the door. Sleep Star The ultimate in luxurious comfort and support, the Stearns & Foster Reserve Hepburn Mattress suits any sleeping style.

Burn the buckwheat pancakes again? Trane’s CleanEffects Air Cleaner filters out smoke and bad scents from the air, while HVAC zoning keeps the cooking space cool (even when your oven is hot, hot, hot). Plus, Trane’s Envirowise humidifiers maintain a healthy humidity zone of 30 to 60 percent for the best possible air quality.
BOOMER SUITE —
When Grammy and Poppy (or boomerang kids) visit, roll out the red carpet. Trane lets you provide a personalized experience, from its smart thermostats to its Envirowise humidifiers, so guests can control their own heating and cooling experience just as they would at a five-star resort. Warning: Your in-laws may never leave.
THE HUB —
TV watching is way cozier with the Trane smart thermostat, which allows you to warm up from your perch on the couch. Temperature and occupancy sensors know when the fireplace is flickering or the cocktail-party guests are mingling, and they adjust accordingly. Bonus: Pet fur doesn’t stand a chance against the CleanEffects Whole Home Air Cleaner.
Up in the Air
The smartest home design choices aren’t about what you see, but what you feel—and with an HVAC system from Trane, you feel comfortable, safe, and worry-free. Before touring our Whole Home Concept House, learn how Trane ensured this chic space would be free of allergens and pollutants, with a 99.98 percent reduction in airborne particles. 40

Like a boom box blaring in a leafy park, a rowdy AC can ruin an otherwise tranquil alfresco experience. That’s why Whole Home installed the XV20i Variable Speed air conditioner. Not only is it eco-efficient, but it operates so silently, you’ll wonder if it’s even on.
THE TREEHOUSE —
The only thing more comforting than a dish of mac and cheese on your table? A comfy atmosphere, which the Trane XV20i Variable Speed system all but guarantees, thanks to its 750 stages of TruComfort that keep each room within one-half degree of the temperature set point.
THE OASIS —
The greatest gift a room could give you is quality z’s. For the ultimate zen bedroom, Trane’s whisper-quiet operations are a must, from the furnace (which turns on nearly undetectably) to the hush-hush AC unit nearby. Feeling a little chilly? Tweak the temperature remotely from under the covers, and rest easy.

and having a builder as a husband, we can adapt things,” says Sarah Rogers. Her own Nashville kitchen was an example of such adaptation. “Working in design for so long, we have gotten to experience all these different things for clients and then bring in the perfect culmination,” says her boss, April Tomlin. In a true collaboration, it was Tomlin who had the lightbulb when Rogers asked her opinion of the vision—an all-white space with a wood ceiling. “I said, ‘Why don’t you wrap this whole wall in wood?’ ” Tomlin recalls. “Do something different!” The update set a tone for the entire space. “I have a very clean, California style, but I wanted to add warmth without it being old-fashioned looking,” Rogers says. The result, they agree, is an apt metaphor for their work style, where Tomlin is the risk-taker. “It’s like all our projects,” Tomlin laughs. “The coming together of a sensibility from Sarah, and a big idea from me.”
SW I V EL S TO O L S With a busy household of six, Rogers opted for rows of sleek, flexible seating that’s easily tucked away.

Green Touches “I think it’s really important to have living things inside,” Rogers says. She worked with a garden company to find a tree that could survive indoors in the kitchen year-round. “Go to your local garden center and find the right plant for your area,” Tomlin advises. (The ficus Audrey is heartier than the popular fiddle-leaf fig tree, which Tomlin calls “the most difficult plant possible.”)

Building your forever home means creating space that will nurture you, well, forever. Kaitlin Petersen, editor in chief of design industry resource Business of Home, examines design solutions that are truly everlasting.
A
S A HOM EOWN ER,
you weigh the roof materials that will last decades. You seek out extra bedrooms for the kids or guests you plan to have, and you wonder if a kitchen cabinet color will seem dated by 2025. But far too few people consider perhaps the most critical aspect of planning, a topic so un-fun that many designers have developed politely manipulative strategies to broach it. “Nobody wants to hear, ‘When you get really old in a couple of years, you’re going to want grab bars,’ ” says Brooklyn designer Jennifer Morris. “You have to prepare people in a way that they can hear it. ‘When your mother comes to visit, will she be able to get into the shower?’ Little examples like that get people thinking about decisions that can make their home more accessible...in the context of somebody else.” The pandemic has forced us all to take stock of the spaces we’re in, and find ways to transform them into the homes of our dreams—in other words, the ones we’ll grow old in. Studies have found that seniors not only value staying in their homes as they age, there are also significant benefits to

doing so—from cost savings in medical care to better health outcomes, emotionally and physically. Organizations like the Living in Place Institute and the National Association of Home Builders offer training for industry professionals on both design interventions and ways to approach the fraught subject with clients. The bathroom is often the first room that comes up with designers who specialize in aging in place, as research shows it’s typically the first room in our home to fail us. “If you start to feel like you can’t clean yourself—especially as you get older and lose mobility, reach, and stretch— bidets and Washlets take that [concern] away,” Morris says. “It’s a conversation your parents won’t want to have with you, and you might not even want to have with your spouse.” That said, it’s an important one, considering struggles with hygiene are a big reason Americans relocate to assisted living facilities. For designers, part of the job is educating clients about why certain choices will help them in the long term—but many find that it’s often easiest to simply leave out design options that don’t facilitate aging in place. “I’m just not going to show [my clients] an option that I feel would be unattractive, unwise, or unsafe,” says
“I’m not going to show [my clients] an option that’s unattractive, unwise, or unsafe.” —DESIGNER JAMIE GOLD
Jamie Gold, a Southern Californiabased kitchen and bath designer and author of Wellness by Design. Designer Heather Bates of Washington, D.C., points clients toward less slippery alternatives to marble flooring during bathroom renovations. These days, she’s also recommending antimicrobial countertops and no-touch faucets. At the very least, Morris builds the potential for future interventions into the bones of the house—reinforced areas for grab bars to come, or an extra outlet for a Washlet or bidet. Adding age into the initial design equation means you don’t have to deal with it down the line. “If you’re not
ready to do these things, I get it,” she says. “But I ask, ‘Would you rather spend $500 now or $2,000 to have the tile ripped out later?’ ” Not surprisingly, solutions that support homeowners and their guests regardless of age or physical chal-
lenges are often better for everyone. Carpet runners on stairs are great for acoustics, but can also help avert falls; old-fashioned chair rails protect wallcoverings from scuffs, and also assist with spatial awareness. In the kitchen, induction cooktops prevent burns and are safer for forgetful homeowners. Wall ovens are harder for children to reach—and keep adults of all ages from bending over to lift a heavy cassoulet. “What I’ve learned, both in my design practice and my life, is that tips I was sharing with my older clients can really benefit people of all ages,” Gold says. “If it’s easy to roll into a barrier-free home with a wheelchair, it also helps someone with a stroller or a roller bag.” The bottom line: The forever home isn’t just about decorating with timeless style—it’s about designing with time in mind. “I’m all about beauty,” Morris says. “But if it doesn’t make you live in a better way, it’s not enough.”
COSMETIC CHANGES THAT MATURE WELL Follow these rules today, and live more happily tomorrow.
Choose contrasting colors for walls, floors, counters, and rugs to help guide folks visually and assist with depth perception.

HOUSE BEAUTIFUL
Avoid marble flooring, which causes glare and gets slippery when wet; stick to low-pile rugs that are well-secured.
Add a shower bench—it’s a place to balance a leg now, a spot to sit when standing becomes an issue.
Organize cabinets with dividers and lazy Susans so no one has to kneel down when looking for what they need.
Install leverstyle door handles, which are considerably easier for hands of all ages and abilities to grasp and open.
BUILD A BETTER FUTURE A (brief!) list of remodling considerations from the National Association of Home Builders.
Floor Plan If you really want peace of mind, plot a full bathroom (and a possible bedroom) on the ground floor. Thresholds between rooms should be flush, with doorways a minimum of 36-inches wide.
Stairwells Handrails are a good idea at any age, as is the installation of adequate lighting. The stairs must be at least four-feet wide to install a lift.
Bathroom This space typically needs the most significant modifications. A stand-up shower should be curbless with a handheld showerhead. Get a tub with a lower edge. Toilets should be at â&#x20AC;&#x153;comfort height.â&#x20AC;? Brace walls for later installation of grab bars.
Kitchen Varied counter and cabinet heights with task lighting help folks of all ages pitch in with the cooking. Appliances should have easy-read controls and easy-press buttons. An induction cooktop with heat-indicating lights is safest.
Exterior Consider low-maintenance siding (like brick or vinyl) and landscaping (shrubs). Handrails are great for everyone, and you could leave space for a future ramp.

talk about “getting a place in the country,” they usually mean a weekend house in the Hudson Valley, the Catskills, or maybe, if they’re pushing it, Connecticut. But when Stephanie Housley and her husband, tech executive Chris Lacinak, decided to decamp from their Williamsburg apartment in favor of a quieter lifestyle, they set their sights on somewhere significantly more remote—as in, two-hours-from-thenearest-convenience-store, no-Amazon-Prime-available, snowshoe-to-town-for-supplies remote. “We were both aching for more access to open spaces, fresh air, and wildlife,” says Housley, who owns decor-andtextile brand Coral & Tusk. She and Lacinak considered buying a house in one of the usual spots near the city but couldn’t help but imagine themselves out west—in Wyoming, specifically. Housley had always loved it there (“my parents took me to Grand Teton and Yellowstone when I was young; and when my husband and I were still teenagers, we came here on a road trip”), and after a return visit years later, she was still dreaming of it—literally. In late 2014, she had a vision of living there; soon after, they were house hunting. At first, Housley considered buying and building a prefab tiny house, but the idea was deemed impractical for hosting out-of-town visitors and working from home. There were plenty of log cabins, but she resisted: “A lot of the older ones were dark and needed a lot of maintenance, and the newer
ones were very cookie-cutter,” she says. “I didn’t want something that felt like a novelty.”
That resistance shifted when the couple found an especially unique A-frame cabin in Bondurant, about an hour south of Jackson. Custom built by previous owners three decades prior, it was located on a 20-acre plot of land surrounded by three mountain ranges and had a detached studio that would make for an ideal work space. Housley was sold. Luckily, the house was already in move-in condition, which meant that Housley’s main focus was on bringing in furniture and decor that fit the setting without being too “cabin-y.” Much of it is hand-hewn or vintage, and there is, of course, plenty of Coral & Tusk. (The brand’s signature embroidered motifs—woodland critters, arrowheads, foliage—fit in seamlessly.) The biggest hurdle, says Housley, was figuring out how to decorate log walls: “You quickly realize your old tricks don’t work without drywall!” While Housley and Lacinak had intended to only spend summers at the house, they decided after just a few weeks there to move in full-time for a “trial” year. That winter ended up being the worst in 40 years, but 400 inches of snow weren’t enough to deter the couple from settling in permanently. Though they still keep a spot in Brooklyn, it’s the wilds of Wyoming they call home, making them more prepared than most to handle lockdown life in a pandemic. “Our day-to-day routine is no different—we have to make a concerted effort to see another human under regular circumstances!” she laughs. “I appreciated this home before, but I feel a newfound gratitude to have landed in exactly this spot.”

It’s just spectacular,” says Brown, who gut renovated the home alongside architect Rosamund Young. “From a design perspective, it adds dimension—you’re layering in these peaks and valleys,” Brown says.
The previous owners, also collectors, left a horde of art books; it was “like being in the stacks of an Ivy League college,” Brown says. He helped curate the tomes alongside his clients’ own collection, and in the gallery-esque foyer

arranged their art for aesthetic diversity, marrying wood carvings with handblown glass, vertical with horizontal. Brown also layered plants, textiles, and offbeat fixtures to inject life into the serene interiors: a Tibetan rug provides geniality underfoot in the living room, and above the glass table in the dining room, Brown swapped an “austere and cold” chandelier for an oversize, papier-mâché custom piece by artist Patrick Weder. “It creates texture in the room and makes it sort of dreamy.” Now the home, secreted away on nearly two acres, really feels like a leafy, luxurious piece of paradise. Says Brown, “I started referring to this project as a Shangri-La.”

“TO DESIGN IS TO DREAM.” T H I S , SAYS E LI Z A C R AT E R H A R R I S , I S O N E of t he
most valuable pearls of wisdom passed down by her great-grandmother Sister Parish. Née Dorothy May Kinnicutt, Parish was the legendary designer who introduced Americans to a certain type of relaxed, New England–traditional look—rag rugs and woven baskets and sweet, unpretentious florals—now synonymous with preppy style; who famously decorated the White House for Jackie Kennedy; and who, along with Albert Hadley, headed Parish-Hadley, a firm that went on to produce so many of today's design stars (Bunny Williams, Brian McCarthy, Thomas Jayne, and Thom Filicia, to name a few). Harris spent her childhood summers at Parish’s summer house in Maine, surrounded by “everything that Sister loved,” soaking in all the details of a veritable living museum. But it wasn’t until she entered the industry herself, working for designer Markham Roberts (the protégé of another Sister Parish acolyte, Mark Hampton), that Harris learned “how much talent, knowledge, and hard work it takes to create the
fantasy world I grew up in as a little girl,” she recalls. Last year, she officially joined her mother, Susan Crater, at Sister Parish Design, where she carries on her family legacy, reproducing classic textiles from the firm’s archives and creating new ones fueled by Parish’s iconic style but reimagined for a younger generation. Many of those timeless prints can be found wrapped around walls and furniture in Harris’s own home, an apartment in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood where she lives with her husband and newborn son. There, in addition to the literal odes to her great-grandmother’s work, she wove in more metaphorical ones too (inspiration from travel, plenty of personal touches, a well-thought-out balance of fantasy and reality)—and, of course, a dedication to her most fundamental belief: that good design is for living. “Sister loved to have fun and to entertain and to really use the rooms in her houses,” Harris emphasizes. After all,
she adds, “What’s the point of having beautiful things if you don’t feel comfortable using them?”

at a card table in an empty field. Architect Richard Beard surveyed the “stunningly beautiful” 60-acre plot in Geyserville, California, and required little convincing when they turned to him with a question: What do you think about putting a house here? It wasn’t Beard’s first time receiving tabula rasa from the couple, Bieke and Brian Burwell. He’d crafted their previous home years ago, and now, with their three boys grown, the couple wanted something smaller and leaner, yet still primed for entertaining. Beard concocted two low-slung geometric volumes, clad in wood, for a main residence and poolhouse. Devised to blend with the site’s topography and darken over time, the home is “what I would call a recessive piece of architecture—it really recedes into the landscape; but the interior of the house was always designed to be a counterpoint to that,” he says. Instead of
an open plan, Beard opted for an enfilade, with rooms connected by a series of open doorways. “You get these glimpses, you can see the space beyond, but you’re not in the room,” Beard explains. From the dining room, one can peek into the showstopping kitchen, which features oak cabinetry, a steely tile backsplash, and a massive marble-topped island. To furnish the home, the Burwells called on designer Alan Deal of the firm BAMO, who’d also worked with Beard on their previous residence. Deal brought over many pieces from that project, while also mixing in new creations like a custom B&B Italia sofa in a goldenrod velvet. “They are the kind of people who keep adding to what they have,” he explains. Gio Ponti chairs from their former home were upholstered in fresh fabrics, a chandelier was adjusted to fit the new dining room’s lower ceiling, and Brian’s desk and custom pool table found their way into his new office. Deal and Beard both acknowledge the joy of working with repeat clients who share an evolved vision. “There was just a very comfortable rapport. Everybody had the same goal,” Deal says of the reunion.

Pullins and his fiancé, Steve Williams, are greeted by a barrel’s worth of silver monkeys and dozens of fluttering blue jays. The colorful menagerie—or, more specifically, the Cole & Son wallpaper depicting it—fills their en suite bathroom, visible from the bed through a pair of French doors. “What’s more invigorating than a jungle?” Pullins says. “Waking up, brushing your teeth—I want it to be entertaining for me.”
It’s a modus operandi for his life and his approach to designing his own home, a five bedroom, five bathroom in Jacksonville, Florida, just steps away from the St. Johns River. “I’ve been in Jacksonville all my life, born and raised,” he says. “I tried to escape a couple of times and it didn’t last very long.” Pullins and Williams purchased the nearly century-old, Prairie-style house five years ago, and have been busy transforming every square inch of it ever since: In addition to adding new plumbing and electrical, the couple opened up walls, gutted the kitchen, changed a sunroom into a closet (“We love clothes,” says Pullins, a
former wardrobe stylist), and installed a saltwater dipping pool. (A wine cellar remains on their to-do list.) Several motifs emerged throughout the house: ornate fixtures and tilework, millwork painted a glossy black, and irreverent art choices—the painting in the living room is based on a scene that artist Caitlin Hurd saw while in a coma. The kitchen was no exception: “We knew we definitely wanted to display our artwork, so we painted the walls white to create a gallery,” Pullins says. (The couple also own and operate a regional art space in town.) High-contrast accents in black and gold boost the room’s drama factor; of the scrolling lanterns over the island, Pullins says, “I was drawn to them because they just reminded me of Europe. I wanted our home to look well traveled.” Despite the prevalence of black and white, it’s color—the bolder the better—that Pullins always comes back to. So when it came to choosing a hue for the living room, the largest space in the house, Pullins couldn’t help but indulge in a moody peacock. “I fought for blue since we first moved in, and I finally got my way,” he laughs. “I just love color, honestly. It’s in my DNA.”

ourselves this year. Setting aside a million tiny existential crises, it’s tough to argue with Colorado, considering its gorgeous scenery and population of active thrill seekers. When deciding where to build our third Whole Home Concept House, we were taken with a new development between Denver and Colorado Springs: Fox Hill, an eco-friendly community built around a sustainable farm, where residents can pick their own squash and grab some fresh eggs while taking in views of the Front Range. We chose our very own lot, then made some calls. The first was to local builder Nicholas Custom
Homes, who dug in (literally) and created a family home that fit into this forward-thinking neighborhood. Next came 10 of the country’s top design teams, who descended on the site—and Zoomed their way through renderings and blueprints when they couldn’t be there in person—to offer new ways to approach every room in our home, regardless of its pre-labeled function. The result is this 5,400-square-foot house that brings in fresh ideas, fresh (albeit thin) Colorado air, and showcases the comfort, delight, and capability we desperately crave now. Is that the altitude or are we just dizzy with excitement?

basic goes out the window. For Houston-based designer Lucinda Loya, this space (don’t call it a living room—it’s so much more than that) was all about taking inspiration from the natural landscape to foster a welcoming environment full of texture, warmth, and soothing neutrals. A gallery of art and stunning brass stalactite-esque pendants greet guests as they come in, and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace offers bench seating for extra friends (or pets) to perch. An oversize sectional with an extended backless chaise (Loya has one just like it in her own house), covered in a no-nonsense performance fabric, supplies the perfect spot for working from home, lounging with family, or watching the sunset.

kitchens to be simply pretty. These days, they need to function for every culinary level and age group (and preserve food longer for all those at-home meals). Designer Sarah Robertson of New York’s Studio Dearborn dreamt up a multigenerational space with style to spare. Handmade zellige tiles in fresh white and peacock blue offset rustic alderwood cabinetry, and rather than selecting one type of hardware, Robertson chose five different designs, including brass and leather. The nearby farm inspired batten-style panel fronts on the refrigeration wall, while the island, made of quartz and wenge wood, has plenty of space for grandparents to pull up and chop; additional undercounter storage makes cleanup easy for all. In the pantry, a built-in vacuum sealer (which slows the aging and oxidation of food) can be used for canning and preserving fruits, fish, and meats. Any food waste goes straight into the compost bin to help produce another harvest of healthy vegetables. Appliances: Signature Kitchen Suite. Cabinetry: Studio Dearborn by Schrocks of Walnut Creek.

For the dining room, which opens entirely onto the covered porch, Denver-based designer Andrea Schumacher echoed nature on its most glamorous day: Twelve flowerlike pendants and their whopping 1,400 petals fill up the two-story space, alongside a single linear fixture; collectively, they conjure “the tumbleweeds and sticks” of Colorado. Rather than adding wallpaper below, she wrapped her own Woodsy paper, inspired by her grandmother’s art, near the bookshelves above.

In the interest of encouraging folks to put their phones away, she pulled motifs from midcentury furniture and conversation pits, traditional Japanese seating, and African furnishings for two alluring zones with distinct personalities that live happily together. The more revved-up fireside area, anchored by a fireplace with agrarian tile reminiscent of a bird’s-eye view of farmland and cast in a sunny 1970s color palette, includes inset shelving and an eclectic mix of vintage leather furniture paired with contemporary (and height-adjustable) Ghanaian-inspired stools. The plush Berber rug, traditionally made by women of the North African Beni Ourain tribes, encourages lounging on the floor.
