“Like a fingerprint, each residence built is truly custom, designed to fulfill the desires and lifestyle of its owner.”

MEET THE BUILDER Just as an artist transforms a blank canvas into a masterpiece, builder Woody Howarth approaches each home as a unique work of art. Trained as a craftsman at his father’s side, Howarth has been indulging his passion for home building for more than 20 years. Since moving to Colorado from Florida in 1990, he has built and remodeled over 200 exceptional homes in the Castle Rock and Colorado Foothills communities. With impeccable taste and a distinctive “eye,” Howarth brings a level of luxury and personal customization that results in one-of-a-kind designs.

POGGENPOHL ANNUAL INNOVATION DESIGN CONTEST Innovation Award Winner Hausscape, Miami, FL Luis Bebchik and Reinier Boulart, Hausscape

After a review of exceptional submissions, Poggenpohl is proud to announce the winners in the following categories:

Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects (SAOTA) This minimalist kitchen and pantry for a new waterfront residence integrates a tremendous number of appliances and features, while keeping the look fresh, contemporary and sophisticated. Functional areas were created including a cooking zone, entertainment seating and a bar.

Poggenpohl can be found in homes in more than 70 countries around the world. Integrating the size and architecture of the built environment, its designers start with a clean slate and work from there, considering the space and the customer’s preferred design theme to create a unique, individual kitchen. Whatever the brief, Poggenpohl aims for perfection.

POGGENPOHL AND LUXE INTERIORS + DESIGN’S MARKETING TEAM PROUDLY PARTNERED TO HONOR THREE CUSTOM KITCHEN DESIGNS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

Brilliant Small-Space Winner

Bespoke Design Challenge Winner

Poggenpohl Downtown, New York, NY

Beck/Allen Cabinetry, St. Louis, MO

Roger Zierman, Poggenpohl Downtown

Mike Beck, Beck/Allen Cabinetry

After a 30-year occupant moved out, a young couple purchased this apartment, refreshing it with daring and unique finishes from head to toe. The tiny, 49-square-foot kitchen (small even by New York standards) receives its personality from Poggenpohl’s gray nut tree cabinetry and aluminum backsplash— complete with Gorilla wallpaper. Functionality was key, with custom features to clear the countertops of clutter and create space for clever, smaller-scale appliances.

Interior Designer, Property Enhancements, LLC

NAT37_CA_Poggenpohl_0519_sr.indd 2

This kitchen design was part of a complete renovation on the 20th floor of a condominium in St. Louis, Missouri. The entire unit was stripped from floor to ceiling, and reconfigured to fulfill the homeowners’ wishes for an open floor plan. To accommodate their desire for a welcoming kitchen with clean lines, Poggenpohl products were used here and in nearly every room in the home. The result is a modern, seamless aesthetic.

ON THE GO

This July/August issue marks our annual celebration of global design. In it, we take you around the world— everywhere from a curated concept shop in Marrakesh to a 1950s Berlin high-rise-turned-whimsical hotel, with bicycles suspended from the lobby’s ceiling. We also, always, bring you much closer to home with the best in regional design. While jetting off to another time zone can often inspire, so, too, can your own zip code. In addition, we’re encouraging readers to take another trip this summer: over to our new digital content site, luxedaily.luxesource.com, where you’ll discover design-related stories galore. Our 13 regional editions of Luxe provide an endless array of styles, ideas and design resources from across the country.

This page: Luxe takes you on an international journey this issue, highlighting such dynamic global venues as Morocco’s L’Hôtel Marrakech (top, left and right), designed by Jasper Conran, and the Berlinische Galerie in Berlin (above).

214 Modern Vintage

“While it isn’t a trend but rather a predictable constant in design, metals were on display at Spring Market. Seeing the way companies like Milling Road for Baker reimagined classic finishes—as they did with the Wrap console—in a fresh and modern way is incredibly inspiring to us. The marble top paired with the sleek, sexy base makes this piece a total showstopper. Vintage was another strong theme we saw in furnishings, art and accessories. We were impressed with the Barrie Benson collection for Highland House. The way she reimagined vintage pieces of furniture and explored bold color palettes was exciting beyond words!” Milling Road

“Craftsmanship and an appreciation for artisan work were dominant themes at HPMKT, and are a major cultural push impacting interior design today. The usage of materials in their raw form showcases their natural beauty. Our absolute favorite was the Floating Credenza 1702 from Craft Associates Furniture. They used solid walnut to create the most sensual form that celebrates the grain of the wood.” Credit: Addison Jones Photography

“Neutrals were being paired with different styles and accents throughout the showrooms we visited at HPMKT. We fell head over heels for the John-Richard Brass Six-Light Chandelier. The white marble paired so fabulously together with the brass—such a modern take on a classic chandelier shape and style. We also loved the Bark Chair by OLY—the classic style with the textured look of tree bark can be used in interior or exterior applications. We love the OLY line in general because of the clean modern vibe that gives a nod to past classic looks.”

Bernhardt

FUTURE TRENDS

What do the Style Spotters see coming to HPMKT this Fall? Look for more vintage-inspired pieces, unexpected artisan touches, and white textures incorporating ethereal finishes. Highland House

BEHIND THE SCENES GET TO KNOW A FEW OF OUR CONTRIBUTORS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS THEY TALK ALL THINGS DESIGN. PRODUCED BY SARAH RAMIREZ

MIMI FAUCETT Writer / Austin My creative influences come from… Print magazines. Nothing gives me more creative joy than a favorite, familiar magazine still having the ability to surprise me. Long live print! Favorite book: Grace: A Memoir by Grace Coddington. Not only is the story inspiring, but the hot-orange cover makes this book coffee table-worthy. Top three things on your design wish list: I’m dying for a set of black linen sheets from Hawkins New York—what I consider to be the perfect summer bed set. I’m also currently obsessing over L.A. artist Bari Ziperstein’s quirky ceramic vases, and I’m steadily saving a spot on my wall for a face painting (or two!) from Sally King Benedict. Most fascinating person you’ve ever met: My grandmother, Nana. She’s someone who’s generous with time, laughter and sensitivity, but first and foremost, she’s a listener. It’s rare to get a story about her past, but when you do, it’s always fascinating.

ARIC ATTAS

Photographer / Palm Beach If not a photographer, I would be… A musician. I’ve performed with jazz, rock and blues bands over the years. I also create guitar-based Ambient Soundscapes to accompany many of my fine art exhibitions, as I find sound is a great counterpoint to my visually oriented work. Prized possessions: I have a photograph from the first roll of film I shot. It’s a black-and-white print I took at age 12, and I treasure it because I’m intrigued by how this simple close-up of a printing press foreshadowed my fascination with light, space, form and design. Also, my health. Having won two fights with cancer, I am aware of the value of good health, and I cherish it every day. Finally, I love my best friend and studio mate, Macchiato, a 3-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback, who was rescued from an elephant preserve. Upcoming project: I’m excited to be working on new photographs for an upcoming solo exhibition at the Clare Gallery in Hartford, Connecticut, that will run from October 14 through December 31. These cosmos-inspired images explore the intersection of art, science and spirituality.

LX_COM14_Contributors.indd 92

ERIC PIASECKI Photographer / New York What type of design inspires you? Though my personal aesthetic tends to lean toward modern, I enjoy all different types of interiors. Right now, I really like seeing how designers are taking traditional design and adding modern twists to make it more contemporary. If money were no object, I’d buy… A new horse for our barn in New Mexico. Most interesting person you’ve met: Years ago, we were shooting Versace’s mansion in South Beach, Miami, and I got to meet famed photographer Helmut Newton by the gold-tiled pool—it was an over-the-top experience all around! Preferred superpower: It would have to be the ability to fly— no more airplanes! Of course, I would need some kind of side car for all my equipment.

KARA PICKMAN Writer / Miami Favorite design trend: That everything old becomes new again—I could live in any of Terence Conran’s design books, but I’m particularly partial to the 1974 edition of The House Book. And if you’re into obsessing over details (or like to think you are), check out the quirky photo styling in the 1990 edition of Complete Home Storage. Dream assignment: I’m honored to work with innovative clients across the country and around the world who champion art and design, including the Guggenheim, Pérez Art Museum Miami, the Smithsonian, Design Miami/ and many more, and my goal is to always both expand and refine my client list and creative projects. Most-treasured possessions: The dining room table and chairs passed down to us from my mother-in-law and late father-in-law; they were custom-made in Spain for my wife’s grandmother. The table seats at least 10 and is so large we had to take the dimensions into account when we purchased our first home two years ago. There was no way we were buying a house where we couldn’t eat around that table! If I had $20,000 to blow, I’d… Commission the custom Cuban floor tiles my wife wants for our sun room—and start the renovation we’ve been planning. On your nightstand: Most recently, Elif Batuman’s novel The Idiot. If not a writer, I would be… An art conservator. Maybe in another life...

VISUAL HISTORY AT VENERABLE COVERINGS COMPANY DE GOURNAY, THE CECIL GURNEY SISTERS CARRY ON THEIR FATHER’S LEGACY WHILE KEEPING THEIR EYES ON THE FUTURE THROUGH A SERIES OF BUZZ-GENERATING COLLABORATIONS. WRITTEN BY MICHELLE BRUNNER

Imagine growing up in a magical world where butterflies flutter along perfectly painted vines and mischievous monkeys frolic up and down the walls. Now imagine that place is your childhood home and those fanciful landscapes are the family business, and you might get a sense of the charmed upbringing had by sisters Hannah and Rachel Cecil Gurney. “We grew up in a stunning house, decorated by our father, just opposite Kensington Gardens in London,” says Hannah. “My sister and I used to sit on the stairs, fascinated by the Chinese figures on the wallpaper.” Depicting peasant life in rural 18th-century China, the pattern, which featured scenes of silk-weaving and porcelain-making, wasn’t just a work of breathtaking decoration, but also a lesson in history and culture. “It was all very exotic to a 6-year-old Londoner, and our father would happily spend hours talking us through it all,” she says. Their father, Claud Cecil Gurney, founded de Gournay, the world-renowned maker of exquisite handmade wallcoverings, christening the brand with the French root of the family name in 1986.

As the story goes, Claud had trouble finding skilled artisans to restore some antique wallpaper in his home; so, through the Chinese Trade Commission in London, he located artists familiar with the painting techniques in mainland China. Working with the craftsmen, he began to create hand-painted papers, reigniting a tradition that had begun in the early 18th century, when chinoiserie was all the rage among the European aristocracy. By staying true to original production techniques— typically six artisans work on a single paper that can take up to 150 hours to produce—Claud created a truly bespoke luxury item. Today, his daughters help run the company—Hannah as director, and Rachel as the global style manager—putting their stamp on a number of forward-thinking initiatives while preparing to take over the family business when their father retires. “Our father has been wonderful about allowing us to make decisions and take on a lot of responsibility,” says Hannah. “He understands that if he is serious about handing over the reins, he needs to trust and support our ideas and allow us to learn from our mistakes. We love what we do so much that we want to ensure we safeguard it for the next generation.” The company’s vision has expanded to include both more contemporary designs and ones that reflect other global perspectives, such as the more abstract Japanese and Korean collection, an

example of which features a weeping willow motif, or the Papiers Peints Panoramiques collection, which is inspired by 19th-century French murals of exotic scenes. “While de Gournay has always been seen as a company that makes very traditional hand-painted papers, my sister and I encourage a more modern aesthetic through employing innovative new techniques and colorways, as well as developing new collections,” says Hannah. One strategic move that has proven successful: a string of high-profile collaborations, the most recent of which is an au courant take on an Art Deco motif inspired by and created in conjunction with Harrods department store. “Art Deco is making a comeback in interior design, and I love the use of geometric shapes, gilt and lacquer in interiors,” says Rachel. “The new design features an ornate scallop pattern gilded onto a metallic background with hand-painted watercolor accents.” Adds Hannah, “The wallpaper has a contemporary edge that we think will appeal to a whole new audience.”

In the quest to expand the brand’s reach, de Gournay pairs up in September with style icon Kate Moss, the latest partnership to feature a boldface name more synonymous with the runway than the annals of interior design. Other recent sartorial collaborations include Matthew Williamson, Jenny Packham and Moda Operandi. Most recently, the company teamed up with Italian fashion label Aquazzura for a line of embroidered footwear and a Tropicalia-inspired wallpaper (shown in part on the previous page), which they developed as a nod to brand founder Edgardo Osorio’s Colombian heritage. Of the synergy between the company and the fashion industry, Hannah feels it’s a natural fit—after all, wallpaper is a form of dressing for one’s home. “There are a lot of similarities between couture and de Gournay,” she says. “We make everything by hand to the highest quality while offering limitless bespoke capabilities. Furthermore, people with style tend to have flair when it comes to their interiors, and vice versa. These days being stylish extends to a whole lifestyle, not just your clothing.”

RADAR / BIG IDEA

All handmade rugs tell a tale, spinning a narrative through silk and wool. In the case of Amadi Carpets, there’s another story as well: In 1984, the Ahmadi family fled war-torn Afghanistan to neighboring Pakistan, eventually emigrating to America with little more than the clothes on their backs and a talent for weaving. Here, Zubair Ahmadi, one of the five brothers behind the brand, shares with us the company’s artistic and philanthropic vision. For 20 years, Amadi Carpets has created some of the most dynamic and finely made rugs on the market. How did you learn the skills of the trade? Growing up in a family of nine children in Afghanistan, we learned the art of weaving from our mother, whose family opened the first silk-weaving factory in Kabul during the 1960s. As a kid, I worked on the loom alongside my brothers after school. We also learned to restore different types of antique rugs and textiles from various countries over the years, so we not only have a knowledge of the construction, but we’re familiar with different techniques and styles. Those same skills eventually led me and my brother, Zabi, to open

WRITTEN BY BRITTANY S. CHEVALIER

our own small 400-square-foot workshop in Los Angeles in 1995, where we refurbished rugs found at flea markets and auctions. Today, all five of us—Zabi, Assad, Jawid, Murtaza and me—work collectively on operations and designs at Amadi. How did you grow the company from a local repair shop to a global enterprise? Two years after opening our shop, we couldn’t find the quality of rugs we desired. We learned of numerous Afghan weavers who had fled to nearby Peshawar, Pakistan, during the civil war in the 1990s. We feel a deep connection with the people of Afghanistan and were looking for a way to assist those refugees. Zabi made the journey to Peshawar in 1997, and, coincidentally, ran into a foreman who worked in the factory that belonged to our mother’s family. Hiring him and his family led to employing other refugees. As the years went on, five looms turned into 10, 10 turned into 200, and soon we were employing over 1,000 Afghan weavers living in Pakistan.

At what point did you move the weaving operation back to Afghanistan? After the country’s liberation from the Taliban in 2003, many of the workers returned to Afghanistan. That’s when we opened our first weaving workshop in Kabul and our focus shifted to employing an ignored sector of the population: women. It was our goal to create a safe workplace

where women would be empowered to make a living. It wasn’t easy: Even though we were from Afghanistan ourselves, we had to convince fathers, husbands and brothers that we were setting up a safe, harassment-free environment for their daughters, wives and sisters. Providing transportation to and from work offered them further protection. Additionally, due to four decades of ongoing war, a whole generation has been raised without an education; therefore, we offer one hour of basic reading and writing lessons every day. In terms of the process, what distinguishes you from other rug companies? Since we control our own production, we get to be more creative, productive and effective than a typical rug gallery or company. From sourcing the raw wool to washing it, carding and dying it, we control every step. And the fact that we are improving lives along the way is an added plus. Share what’s next for Amadi, design- and philanthropy-wise. We want to be more than a rug company. We’d like to launch furniture and textile lines one day. In terms of giving back, our goal is to extend the outreach of our programs and build more weaving centers in other parts of Afghanistan. After all, women are the backbone of the family, so if you help one woman, you help many people beyond her.

ROMANCING the STONES THE DESIGNER BEHIND MATTHEW STUDIOS TRAVELS THE WORLD SEARCHING FOR RARE CRYSTALS AND SEMIPRECIOUS GEMS TO CROWN HER LUXURIOUS LIGHTING AND HARDWARE COLLECTIONS. WRITTEN BY MICHELLE BRUNNER PHOTOGRAPHY BY NINA CHOI

LX_COM14_Radar_Bespoke_MathewStudio.indd 102

When you walk into Katherine Wildt O’Brien’s studio, you’d be forgiven for thinking you stumbled into a jeweler’s workshop or a geology buff’s paradise. A panoply of glimmering stones greets visitors of the space—with bright crystal quartz, deep violet amethyst and gleaming pyrite, also known as fool’s gold, all on glorious display. Unearthed from the farthest reaches of the globe, the shining specimens inspire New York City-based

Matthew Studios’ collections, which include hardware, lighting and case goods. Wildt O’Brien’s love of exotic rocks started at a young age. As a teenager, she worked parttime in a gem shop, where an eccentric, elderly West Indian woman taught her about crystals and their properties. Following her passion, she established Matthew Studios, named for her pet rabbit, in 2008. Her big break came when Tory Burch asked her to design crystal luminaries

for her stores. “Just walking into the Tory Burch offices is so inspiring,” she says. “When we got the opportunity to work on custom lamps for her, it was a dream come true, not to mention a creative learning experience.” Today, the company occupies a large loft space in Harlem, close to where the designer lives. In fact, it was the area’s African market, just a few blocks away from her studio, that provided the impetus for Wildt O’Brien’s latest hardware line. “I love the handcrafted, global ‘Gypset’ vibe at the market,” she says. “I have been collecting cowrie shell earrings for years and have wanted to do a collection incorporating them, since the cowrie shell is a traditional symbol of wisdom and abundance. Horn is another favorite used in African craft, and a powerful talisman of strength and inner power.” Acquiring it is another story: “It took two years to find a reputable source for naturally shed horn,” she says. Not surprisingly, Wildt O’Brien’s inspiration board is full of recognizable safari-chic imagery, such as film stills from Out of Africa, photos from vintage Ralph Lauren runway shows, the work of photographer Peter Beard and shots of intricate, hand-beaded Masai necklaces. “The pieces are imbued with a nomadic spirit,” she says. A passion for travel, painting and even flea-market finds also filters into the design process. “I recently found a red-tagged, sale-bin rhinestone purse, and the handle inspired my new metal Harper cabinet pull series,” she says. Refined settings of polished brass, nickel and chrome allow the stones to steal the show, whether it’s the deep whiskey-hued facets of smoky quartz or the vibrant emerald waves of malachite—both of which are sourced from mines in South America and Africa, respectively.

LX_COM14_Radar_Bespoke_MathewStudio.indd 104

“Simple forms are paired with natural, tonal textures that resonate against hand-cast metal,” Wildt O’Brien says. That juxtaposition of organic forms with polished finishes lends the collection a sophisticated well-traveled vibe that hints at many of the pieces’ exotic origins. Says the designer, “I’m still charmed by the idea that these stones have journeyed around the world to end up in a stylish new setting.”

BEST IN SHOWS SET A COURSE FOR FOUR DAZZLING DESIGN FAIRS, ALL BELLWETHERS OF TRENDS TO COME, IN FOUR STUNNING EUROPEAN SETTINGS. READ ON TO FIND OUT WHAT MAKES EACH ONE UNIQUE.

WRITTEN BY MARY ORE

FEBRUARY 6-10, 2018

▲ BIENNALE INTERIEUR, KORTRIJK, BELGIUM

Reason to go: The best of Nordic style is on full display here, with more than 700 eyecatching new introductions in furnishings, accessories and lighting, in an event that coincides with the festivities of Stockholm Design Week. What you’ll find: Eighty percent of the products are Scandinavian in origin, so it’s no surprise that regional brands, such as up-and-coming lighting design line Pholc, as well as established brands like Svenskt Tenn, whose vibrant style is shown in the vignette at right, are well represented. Smaller makers are celebrated, too, for their reinterpretations of traditional Scandi style. While the fair itself unfolds at Stockholmsmässan convention center, the entire city plays host to over 100 events, installations and parties as part of Design Week. stockholmfurniturelightfair.se

OCTOBER 2018

Reason to go: Small in size, but big in design talent, Belgium is a growing destination for creatives and aesthetes alike, and this highly selective, rigorously curated show happens every two years. A nonprofit fair, the Biennale Interieur’s unique installations often blur the line between commercial design and fine art. What you’ll find: With nearly half of the new products hailing from Belgium, you’ll see innovative twists on regional vernacular staples such as neutral linens, raw and rough-hewn woods, and burnished metals. The focus is on mostly local, European-produced design with a decidedly international point of view, and collaborations across industries or cultures are encouraged. Past galleries represented include Maniera from Brussels, Carwan Gallery from Beirut, and Paris’ Studio Dessuant Bone, whose “Perpetual Motion” installation is shown here. interieur.be

STOCKHOLM FURNITURE & LIGHT FAIR, STOCKHOLM

SALONE DEL MOBILE, MILAN

APRIL 17-22, 2018

Reason to go: Top Italian luxury brands save their launches for this acclaimed show, which is one of the world’s largest and most-buzzed-about furniture fairs, with more than 2,000 exhibitors on display. The fair runs in conjunction with two other shows that alternate each year: Euroluce (with international lighting releases) and EuroCucina (showcasing new innovations in kitchens). What you’ll find: Aesthetic beauty, perfected over the centuries by the Italians, is the hallmark of the show, which takes place during Milan Design Week. In addition to dramatic displays in the Mario Bellini-designed convention center (like the Cappellini booth at right from last year’s show), the city at large gets into the spirit, offering up its 17th-century palazzos, empty concrete train vaults and even 12th-century churchyards as magnificent settings for designer suites or lines of lighting, making a stroll through the already alluring Italian city full of even more magic and wonder. salonemilano.it/en/

MAISON&OBJET, PARIS JANUARY 19-23, 2018

Reason to go: While one rarely needs an excuse to visit Paris, Maison&Objet gives design aficionados added incentive, as well as a sneak peek into the lifestyle and home decor looks that will soon catch on everywhere. What you’ll find: Having originated as an exhibition of tabletop decor, the vision for the show has expanded exponentially—it now occupies eight halls, each one’s offerings ascending in grandeur, culminating in full-scale room displays by leading international brands. While the convention center is a 30-minute shuttle ride from the city, ce n’est pas grave—new grave talents to discover, like Zuza Mengham and Glassworks, the artists responsible for the objets at left, respectively, make the trip worth it. Occurring simultaneously in the city is Paris Deco Off, a showcase for the newest textiles and wallcoverings from top global companies. maison-objet.com 124 / LUXESOURCE.COM

CHRIS TURNER AND PAUL WRONA In naming their Denver studio Elevate By Design, Chris Turner and Paul Wrona offer a sly wink at Colorado’s high altitude as well as a bold statement of purpose: to raise the bar within the landscape design industry. The pair, who linked up in 2012, take a thoughtful, artistic approach to what they call “outdoor architecture.” “We create and develop so much more than planting plants and building patios,” Turner says. “Our projects have a strong focus on key elements such as fire and water features, outdoor kitchens, cabanas and sport courts. It’s important to soften spaces, create seclusion and compose an area that feels cozy.” In short, EBD orchestrates the outside. “With almost 300 days of sun a year, our outdoor spaces should be just as important as the main living spaces inside the house,” Wrona contends. “We get great fulfillment from projects that weave the personalities of our clients into the spaces we create for them.” Here, the outdoor enthusiasts show us how to spend a perfect summer day in Denver. ebdstudios.com 9 a.m. Start the day in the Highlands with a vanilla latte and a fresh bagel from either Café Zuri or Maci Cafe. 10 a.m. Stop into the Elevate By Design studio, off Speer Boulevard in the Highlands, to meet great people and embrace a true collaborative work space—with good music playing in the background. This is where the magic happens! Get to know the team members and their passions while playing a game of Ping-Pong in the conference room. 11 a.m. Make your way to Denver’s RiNo Art District to see the Colorado Crush graffiti murals. We love them—they’re really inspiring and abstract. 1 p.m. Now that you’ve worked up an appetite, move on to Los Chingones on Larimer Street for some street tacos. 126 / luxesource.com

3 p.m. Head to the Denver Botanic Gardens on York Street to gather inspiration from the art exhibits. With live summer concerts and Alexander Calder’s sculptures currently on display, there is something for everyone here. 5 p.m. It’s time to go to the Cooper Lounge at Union Station for a cocktail. While there, snack on the cheese and salumi plate. 6 p.m. If it’s the first Friday of the month, head to the Tennyson Street Cultural District for live music and a look through the open galleries during the First Friday Art Walk. 8 p.m. While you’re on Tennyson Street, have dinner at Parisi Pizzeria, Trattoria e Vino—a great Italian place. Start with the fritto misto, then order the prosciutto, rucola and parm. To finish, savor the gelato from the restaurant’s gelato bar. WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY LAURA BEAUSIRE

QUANTUM RENEWABLE ENERGY

John Palizzi

THE SMALLEST CHANGE IN THINKING CAN PRODUCE THE GREATEST RESULTS Working in agricultural and industrial areas, major metropolises, residential homes, co-ops and more, Quantum Renewable Energy is a national design-build company that invented an energy system that takes wind and solar energy, and combines it with local utilities to create a blended power grid. “To get a balanced approach to renewable energy and truly have a sustainable option, we had to make them work together, so we developed the ‘SmartBox’ that connects up to 16 different energy-producing pieces of equipment at any one time,” president and CEO John Palizzi says. “We have the ability to share electricity, island a building off the grid, and create electricity at a substantial discount compared to the big utilities.” With a portfolio of clients, including two of ForbesÕ “Top 200 Companies”, Quantum has opened the doors beyond the industrial and commercial markets, giving renewable energy a new “home” in the residential sector. “After our work in many of the commercial buildings, the owners of the buildings wanted the same option for their homes,” Palizzi says. What’s next for the forwardthinking firm? Implementing electric car-charging stations and energy-efficient lighting are among its many future-growth objectives.

HUBBARDTON FORGE

As a lighting designer, I should not be too focused on only the light fixture, but how that fixture interacts with the entire space, even if I don’t know what that space looks like.

” LED: LIGHTING THE FUTURE

An evolution in lighting design has taken place, incorporating new materials and technologies. Instead of retrofitting existing designs with LEDs, Hubbardton Forge has been developing designs specifically around the technology. To this end, the company has developed new initiatives, like using a local glassblower for many of its pieces and working with a local firm to develop LED components, thereby decreasing its environmental footprint. “We’re using LEDs in new and interesting ways,” Kitts says. “With our Möbius mini pendant, we were able to shape and form the light-guide element so that it becomes a sculptural aspect of the piece.”

1

When lighting the kitchen or bath, Hubbardton Forge’s director of design, David Kitts, has this one directive. “Select light fixtures that you love; not just like. The bathroom should be your own personal oasis, and your kitchen should be a place where friends and family gather.” Insightful advice from the design lead of America’s foremost luxury lighting manufacturer. Lighting sets the mood, so he suggests mini pendants in multiples over a kitchen island and a chandelier or pendant with dimmable light above the tub. “The pendants won’t interfere with the line of sight for guests or family in the kitchen, and the chandelier creates a spa-like atmosphere in the bath,” he continues. A true American success story, Hubbardton Forge is known for pushing the limits of form and materials to create handcrafted designs that meld the artistry and functionality of lighting. With 230 designers and makers, engineers and production team and staff, the HF team views the world through unique prisms as they create beautiful pieces. Take Kitts’ recent trip to Reykjavik, Iceland, where its street art opened his eyes to a new way of looking at lighting. “I was inspired not by the content or quality of the work, but how the art interacted and contributed to the space, the building and the neighborhood,” he says. “Walking past the same mural on a sunny day and then again on a stormy day could be two very different experiences.”

COSENTINO

Kitchen and bath remodels are no small feat, so make sure to invest the time and resources up front. Bring design inspirations in hand, and work with a professional to achieve the look you want within your budget.

According to the team at Cosentino, when it comes to surface solutions, granite has always been popular, but more consumers are moving toward quartz for its array of colors, lower maintenance and higher durability. And when it comes to style, they’re seeing contemporary themes, including industrial (midcentury modern and coastal), that combine clean lines, built-ins and simple cabinetry. As innovators in the world of kitchens and baths, Cosentino should know. The global company offers the latest in surfacing solutions by staying at the forefront of trends and manufacturing technologies. With the widest array of color and material choices, the company stresses the importance of cohesiveness so everything works together in the completed space. “Think long term,” the team says. “ ‘Will you love that bold color in a few years?’ ‘If you sell your home, would your choices be appealing to other buyers?’ “ They also cite the importance of weighing your lifestyle as much as your style. “While it’s easy to make decisions based on looks alone, it’s important to think about how you use your space.” These answers inform everything from material choice to amenities one should include in their kitchen or bath.

STYLISH + SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS When you choose Cosentino products, you are getting the best on the market. Their advanced technical qualities, wide color options and 25-year warranty stand apart from the rest. For countertops, the new N-Boost advancement improves the color and luster of Silestone quartz, and makes it easier to clean than ever before. And while Dekton, the ultracompact surface with superior durability, isn’t new, Cosentino continues to create innovative color options that replicate the look of other materials. For energy efficiency and environmentally friendly products, Silestone’s ECO Line delivers with a series of colors made from up to 75-percent-recycled content, while Dekton Trillium is made from 60-percentrecycled content. Additionally, the company pays special attention to maintaining low emissions and a 98-percent reuse of water.

MIELE

We believe in clean lines and timeless elegance with user-friendly features and the highest quality materials for every type of cook. Harmonious design is also key, making sure everything aligns perfectly together in the kitchen.

Unique features, the latest innovations and harmonious design characterize the centuriesold kitchen appliance manufacturer Miele. Since its founding in 1899, the German-based innovator has remained true to its philosophy of “Immer Besser”, or forever better, forward-thinking, environmentally friendly kitchen designs with the added promise of superior quality, convenience and the most discerning attention to detail. “We want to ensure that our customers have peace of mind when choosing Miele for their appliance needs,” vice president of marketing Christian Schwarz says. As the kitchen continues to be the hub of the home and a central location for entertaining and living, Miele rises to the occasion with colored appliances, steam and induction options, and smart technology as the “connected” kitchen grows in prominence. One example of this technology is Miele’s innovative M Touch display, which can be found on its ranges and ovens. Fast, easy-to-use and self-explanatory, these appliances operate intuitively by simply pressing or swiping with your fingertip. Be sure to visit a Miele Experience Center to explore further or participate in a cooking class to learn more from the experts at Miele.

MIELE ON… KEEPING IT COLORFUL + CONNECTED

Miele is proud to present a full range of colored appliances to the highend market, including Brilliant White, Truffle Brown and Obsidian Black. For the smart kitchen, Miele offers RemoteVision™ Wi-Fi technology that creates a virtual link between a customer’s enabled appliance and the company’s monitoring center. So if a defect occurs, Miele’s customer service center can contact the customer, gain access to the appliance, and fix the problem. Miele recently launched the Miele@mobile app, where customers can connect their smartphone to the dishwasher, updating them on program times and sending reminders to refill rinse aid or dishwasher tabs.

WOOD-MODE FINE CUSTOM CABINETRY

For 75 years, Wood-Mode has been producing high-quality cabinetry with time-honored techniques that blend timeless craftsmanship and functionality with a fashionforward approach to design.

For affluent homeowners and designers, Wood-Mode products are easily recognizable, from their wide variety of stains and finishes, to well-proportioned door styles and detailed moldings. But the high-end cabinetry manufacturer goes beyond the surface with smart features, such as motion technology for doors, unique storage solutions and integrated lighting, that increase the functional use of any space. “The integration of LED lighting into Wood-Mode cabinet interiors continues to evolve and will become more prevalent,” director of design John Troxell says. “Technology and design innovations have made former challenges, such as interior, recessed vertical lighting and drawer bank lighting, a standard option now.” When discussing trending styles, Troxell says transitional and contemporary looks continue, drawing on recycled materials or midcentury modern details to define the effect. No matter the style, the team at Wood-Mode agrees—cohesion is key. And when starting any renovation, they offer these tried-and-true tips: Do your homework; develop a wish list; establish a budget and a time frame; and collect images of rooms, features and products you like. Troxell adds, “A growing array of materials and finish applications will provide consumers and designers with greater possibilities to create kitchens and other rooms that are uniquely personal.”

WOOD-MODE ON … ILLUMINATION + INNOVATION Wealthy urban and suburban homeowners are increasing the square footage of their kitchens, combining multiple spaces into one large, open-concept area. This provides us with a lot of opportunities, including custom-made furniture like bookcases and desks, along with breakfast nooks and multipurpose islands. Designers and homeowners also have the option to select species and finishes that complement or contrast within their design. Other trends include interior lighting with integrated LED, under-cabinet and in-cabinet options. We continue to be inspired by advances in storage and functionality as well. And metal is making its mark, with stainless-steel countertops and metallic fronts for cabinets increasing in demand.

ZEPHYR

When asked to describe the philosophy behind Zephyr, company president Luke Siow says, “We strive to transform the kitchen through design, discovery and care. Through our products, design partnerships and innovative technology, we hope to elevate the kitchen as a center for self-expression, family and well-being.” Fait accompli for the foremost kitchen hood manufacturer, marking its 20th anniversary this year with a look back at the defining moments in the company’s history and its game-changing hoods. The first manufacturer to bring performance and power-driven ventilation to the kitchen, Zephyr made a name for itself with the introduction of its European-style chimney hoods. Since that time, the company has launched industry firsts such as its DCBL Suppression System®, and Bloom™ HD and BriteStrip™ LED products. Zephyr continues to break design barriers and give designers and consumers more options with its new Black Stainless Steel hoods with titanium coating; a sleek alternative to stainless steel. “Consumers believe that heightened design should be central in the kitchen, and are uncompromising when it comes to performance and quality,” Siow says. With thoughtful designs and an ongoing commitment to technological advancement, Zephyr elevated the kitchen hood from a purely utilitarian appliance to an eye-catching, artful centerpiece.

Zephyr continues to change the marketplace by blending form and function to create beautiful, high-quality hoods that are an asset to any home.

ZEPHYR ON … DESIGNER HOODS Since 1997, Zephyr has been at the forefront of kitchen innovation, design and technology. Aligned with this design-centric approach, the company has partnered with leading designers who balance aesthetics and technology with a masterful eye. In 2004, Zephyr released the Cheng Collection—a signature line of hoods through an exclusive partnership with design guru Fu-Tung Cheng, bringing his artistic and timeless style to the masses. Not long after, Robert Brunner, founder of Ammunition Design Group and the creative powerhouse behind products like Beats by Dre, joined Zephyr to create the innovative Arc Collection. A geometrically stunning marriage of glass and metal, this collection offers designers and homeowners modern sophistication at its finest.

THE RESTAURANT AT HOTEL PANACHE PARIS, FRANCE Located in the lively opera district of the city’s 9th arrondissement, this Art Nouveau-inspired bistro is emblematic of the neighborhood’s storied past and innate creative energy. Influenced by the triangular shape of the building, Parisian designer Dorothee Meilichzon, of Chzon, fostered continuity throughout with geometric details like round light fixtures and striped and hexagonal patterns, along with bright pops of color, all while maintaining the restaurant’s classical French integrity—as seen in the pieces shown here.

OUT OF THE BOX IN A WORLD VAST WITH ENDLESS INSPIRATION AND INCREDIBLE DESIGN, THESE SIX GLOBAL BRANDS CAUGHT OUR ATTENTION THIS SEASON, BEGGING TO BE HANDLED WITH CARE. WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY KATE BERGERON PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIC PIASECKI

MARA SILBER

INTERIOR DESIGNER MARASILBER.COM

At first sight: I’m completely impressed with Oeuffice’s penchant for reimagining the classics: They manage to create sculptural works of art that are equally functional and versatile. On composition: It’s against this backdrop that the stools prove their inherent duality. They feel natural against the exposed brick but would also easily hold their own in both a formal or contemporary setting. As far as design goes… Italy really has no limits. These stools resonate with the country’s influential style in part because of the simple application of elegant, timeless materials; the Cipollino Apuano marble is super-sleek, the travertine is very porous, and the Rosa Perlino marble is full of movement. Each element is independently unassuming, but in union, striking works of art are born. Lasting impression: Refined, sculptural, bold, fresh and playful.

LX_COM14_Market_Spotlight.indd 146

5/16/17 12:49 PM


POST MATES THE PIECES: Ionik Stool and Tuskan Stool THE DESIGNER: Oeuffice FIND IT: mattermatters.com THE INSPIRATION: When Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte and Jakub Zak’s creativity united in 2011 to form their U.K.-based design laboratory, Oueffice, they challenged themselves to imagine limited-edition objects, that were reminiscent of utopian ideals and innovation. Enter the Ionik and Tuskan stools, both part of a second coming of the studio’s Kapital collection and based on primitive stone columns resonant with classical architecture. Handcrafted in Italy using solid-stone blocks, they are modern in aesthetic and scale but maintain the integrity of their inspirational era—an edgy balance very much in line with the contemporary duo’s manifesto.

PALETTE PLEASER THE PIECE: Spring Lamp in Irish Green THE DESIGNER: Mathieu Lehanneur FIND IT: carpentersworkshopgallery.com THE INSPIRATION: Paris-based designer/artist/science enthusiast Mathieu Lehanneur dreamed up the Spring lamp, alongside its counterparts from the Spring series, with the intention of transporting design lovers to a land of natural and ecological metamorphosis. Lehanneur’s aim to create eye-catching objects that examine nature’s poetic side is realized in this delicate lighting fixture, comprised of a bundle of hand-blown, ribbed-glass tubes in a rich green marble base. Along with other materials from the series, both the marble and glass were incorporated into the piece in their natural color and condition— inciting a primitive moment in an otherwise distinctly modern piece.

LX_COM14_Market_Spotlight.indd 148

OLIVER M. FURTH INTERIOR DESIGNER OLIVERMFURTH.COM

At first sight: There’s a wonderful sense of fluidity to this light fixture, almost like water that’s lit from within. Artist to artist: In my own work, I’m constantly trying to push the design dialogue forward, and this piece falls in that special spot between design and sculpture. Lehanneur is playing with our preconceived notions of what a lamp is and propelling those ideas a little further. It’s important… To know the rules before you break them. Here, the artist is clearly informed about design, which is why any risks taken clearly paid off. Global musings: As our world becomes larger, it’s increasingly important to look inward and become more focused. For example, I try to figure out what an area offers that’s specific to that place, whether woven silk textiles in Laos or innovative lighting in Paris. I am always on the hunt for the offbeat and the unusual. The French… Have been innovators in decorative arts since AndréCharles Boulle’s then-groundbreaking furniture in the 17th century, and I think Lehanneur is definitely following in the footsteps of his countrymen. Lasting impression: This design is sculptural, graceful, fluid, lyrical and dynamic.

5/16/17 12:49 PM


CRATE MATTERS THE PIECE: P2 Lavinia Exagonal Armchair THE DESIGNER: Lazzarini & Pickering for Marta Sala Éditions FIND IT: thefutureperfect.com THE INSPIRATION: A second collaboration between noted Italian architect Marta Sala and Roman architectural studio Lazzarini & Pickering brings us the P2 Lavinia Exagonal armchair, a showstopper from Marta Sala Éditions’ Collection No – 2. Shown in a sumptuous Pierre Frey fabric, the seat’s striking shape and seductive proportions incite immediate interest. One would expect no less from this power collab, but there is still something to be said about a design that equally prizes comfort and allure. And in the case of the P2 Lavinia: Mission accomplished.

LEO PARRELLA

INTERIOR DESIGNER LEOPARRELLA.COM

At first sight: The Lavania Exagonal armchair is incredibly modern and reminiscent of Italian furniture from the 1960s and ’70s—a fitting result from this pairing of industry leaders. The piece is as smart from behind as it is straight on, and the exacting lines are both gorgeous and unapologetic. As a first-generation Italian… I may be biased, but I feel that Italy is the undisputed leader in design. Be it automobiles or architecture, furniture or fashion, the legacy of our people is bold, thoughtful design, and this piece is clearly Italian-born. Global gatherers: The hunt and find is one of the more thrilling parts of what I get to do with interiors. Pieces collected from around the world add that transportive element of a life welllived. And an international piece with heritage or a good story gives a sense of being collected rather than assembled. Lasting impression: This striking seat reads as stylish, architectural, luxurious and dramatic.

SEND AND DELIVER THE PIECES: Mali Vases and Jethi Vases THE DESIGNER: Jaimal Odedra FIND IT: maisongerard.com THE INSPIRATION: Moved by the melodious rhythm of bamboo forests, decorated fashion vet Jaimal Odedra set out to explore a new medium with his Mali and Jethi vases. Using bronze in the traditional sand-casting technique, the vases are handmade by artisans in Morocco, and though Odedra visualizes each form and silhouette, the life of each piece is organically determined by the skilled hands that shape it—resulting in one-of-a-kind mini masterpieces.

CONSUELO PIERREPONT AND KATIE SPALDING INTERIOR DESIGNERS SWAY-STUDIO.COM

At first sight: Jaimal’s pieces exude a dramatic subtlety and a relaxed-luxe nature. They’re extremely elevated and yet artisanal all at once. We are really drawn… To the versatility of these beautiful objects. They are such unique designs but don’t have an obvious provenance, in the best way possible. In design, culture and spirit… Morocco is perpetually inspiring with its use of colors, shapes and the effortless ability to seamlessly blend everything together. While these vases are a more modern interpretation of these traits, they embody the country’s unmistakable mélange of the organic and the well-crafted. Global musings: Nothing adds layers like sourcing from around the world. Our clients want to know the stories that are attached to a piece; they want us to use pieces that tell a part of their story. Jaimal’s works seem to do just that. Lasting impression: Fluid, effortless and memorable.

MEGAN PFLUG

INTERIOR DESIGNER MEGANPFLUGDESIGNS.COM

At first sight: The Celestial bowls are the perfect fusion of traditional forms with modernized midcentury ideals. While the shapes are evocative of ancient pottery, the studded embellishments are extremely current and pack an edgy punch. Ceramics (and Tulum for that matter) are… Having a huge moment, which makes Elad’s latest collection even more special and relevant. It’s really lovely to see regions with a long-standing relationship to these materials and techniques making a mark on contemporary design. The resulting pieces always seem to have the most integrity. At home: I imagine these objects functioning beautifully as both decor and utilitarian objects. I’m already picturing filling them with fruit or creating an unexpected floral arrangement. Lasting impressing: The Celestial bowls are modern, punk, classical and statement-making.

LX_COM14_Market_Spotlight.indd 151

CASED GOODS THE PIECES: Celestial Bowl on Stand in Gold + Green and Celestial Bowl on Stand in Gold + Black THE DESIGNER: Elad Yifrach FIND IT: l-objet.com THE INSPIRATION: Elad Yifrach, the mastermind behind lifestyle brand L’Objet, fell in love with Tulum, Mexico, the moment his senses connected with the town’s lustrous and unparalleled warmth and energy. This beachy nook along the Yucatan Peninsula and its storied history inspired a collection of earthy, charmingly desaturated and understated yet elegant pieces. The Celestial bowls, especially, speak to Yifrach’s devotion to Tulum’s vibrancy and aesthetic: a little bit wild but nevertheless the pinnacle of authenticity.

WHITE GLOVE THE PIECE: The Man Ray Glass Leaf Mirror THE DESIGNER: Cox London FIND IT: rosetarlow.com THE INSPIRATION: After years of creative collaboration and a mutual affinity for the decorative arts, design duo Christopher and Nicola Cox officially joined forces in 2005 with the launch of their London studio. Ever since then, they have been producing exquisite and original pieces—the Man Ray mirror being no exception. A love letter to 19th-century French Dieppe bone mirrors, the Man Ray is a striking blend of handpulled ivory glass leaves, carved silver gilt wood and hand-silvered mirror plate, and embodies the very vision of its creators: designs that are rich in technique and timelessness.

MAX HUMPHREY INTERIOR DESIGNER MAXHUMPHREY.COM

At first sight: This showstopper of a mirror appeals to me in that it is extremely delicate but commanding of your attention—a true statement piece indeed. It also speaks to the fabulousness of Cox London as a company. Add Rose Tarlow’s stamp of approval and I’m sold. As an Anglophile… With a lifelong obsession for all things British—pop music, movies, art and design—this mirror epitomizes the U.K. tradition of things not always being what they seem. At first, I thought it was comprised of a million little shark teeth à la Damien Hirst’s renowned tiger shark in formaldehyde sculpture, which like this mirror, doesn’t fully register until staring it right in the face. On composition: I love the contrast of this fragile piece dwelling in an industrial space, when one would normally anticipate it living in a traditional environment. Lasting impression: This mirror is delicate, intricate, beautiful and unexpected.

DU CAFÉ Nothing beats waking up to a hot pot of freshly brewed coffee, especially when your caffeine fi x comes with a heavy side of style thanks to the minimalist lines of the S02 Brewer Stand Set by Kinto. The stand’s brass is blasted for a vintage look and appears delicate when paired with the glass pour-over vessel, making even the gloomiest mornings appear brighter. kinto.co.jp/en/

ON THE MARK At first glance, one might mistake this chic room for the galley kitchen of an urban pied-à-terre. However, the space—featuring a customizable cabinet system designed by Piero Lissoni for Boffi with black granite countertops and appliances from Gaggenau, Miele and Sub-Zero—is in fact ensconced in one of The Mark’s Premier Three-Bedroom Suites in New York City. A bright banquette is the cherry on top. themarkhotel.com

VENICE, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES DESIGN BACKGROUND: When a home-essentials brand with the perfect formula for fluffy towels debuts a luxury hotel, you know it’s time to book your next getaway. Such is the case for The Parachute Hotel—designed by Scott Horne and Peter Dolkas— which invites guests to experience the Parachute lifestyle (and perhaps, most importantly, its genius bedding and bath textiles) firsthand. DETAILS TO LOVE: This bathroom received the same careful attention as any bespoke residential project, with furnishings from “like-minded vendors, makers and local friends of the brand,” says Horne. Stump stools by Kalon, for instance, keep Parachute’s signature towels within easy reach. theparachutehotel.com

DESIGN BACKGROUND: Roman and Williams weaved Nantucket’s culture, history and adventurous spirit into the design fabric of the 20-room Greydon House hotel, imbuing this bathroom with hues that reflect the local landscape. DETAILS TO LOVE: Seaside style ripples throughout this planked-wall space, which features a palette of high-gloss white and nautical-inspired finishes like Waterworks faucets in polished, unlacquered brass. Custom sconces with leaded milk glass shades contrast with the crisp blue of hand-painted Portuguese tile murals that depict the ocean and impart a sense of voyage to the shower. greydonhouse.com 196 / luxesource.com

PREPARE FOR TAKE-OFF AS LUXE SETS AN INTERNATIONAL AGENDA THAT INCLUDES AMAZING ARCHITECTURE, INSPIRING INTERIORS AND MUST-SEE SIGHTS. WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY MICHELLE BRUNNER

FLIGHT OF FANCY Modern technology has put inspiration at our fingertips, dissolving traditional boundaries and making even the most remote pockets of the planet feel within reach. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the world of design, where at any given moment, creatives have access to a virtual library of beautiful images and products from around the globe without ever having to leave home. While armchair travel is a lovely way to kill a few hours, sometimes it’s necessary to put down that smartphone, hop on a plane and go see the sights firsthand. After all, there’s no comparison to experiencing the architecture of Marrakesh or Shanghai in person. To that end, we recruited a few of our favorite industry experts to share some of their top international spots for design lovers.

English artist Claire Brewster creates intricate paper sculptures from cut-out maps of the world. Birds in flight are a favorite subject, as in Done and Dusted shown here.

MARRAKESH EXPRESS

One look at her iconic line of carpets and textiles, and you can see the Moroccan inspiration behind Madeline Weinrib’s work. The New York-based designer has been making annual pilgrimages to Marrakesh for nearly 20 years. Below, she presents her top recommendations for shopping and sustenance. madelineweinrib.com

PLACES TO SHOP:

PLACES TO EAT:

33 RUE MAJORELLE Like a smaller version of the legendary Parisian boutique Colette, this open-concept shop just opposite the Majorelle Garden is stocked with an expertly curated collection of clothes, jewelry and art by local designers.

DAR YACOUT Designed by Bill Willis, the late American architect and decorator who helped put Marrakesh on the style map, this dining spot serves a set menu amid dramatic decor. Plan ahead; reservations are a must.

ALNOUR Located in the medina, or old city, this workshop and store is a social enterprise for handicapped women who are skilled in the art of embroidery. They sell exquisite, handmade linens for the home, as well as clothing. EL FENN BOUTIQUE With its impressive art collection and drop-dead gorgeous interiors, El Fenn, from Vanessa Branson, Virgin mogul Richard Branson’s sister, is one of the most stylish stays in the medina. Now, it features an adjoining boutique with an array of wonderful home goods, which can be shipped globally. I’ve collaborated with them on a collection of pillows, and all proceeds from sales benefit a foundation that teaches women to weave in the Atlas Mountains.

LX_COM14_TheReport.indd 180

NOMAD RESTAURANT With a modern menu that features fresh salads, Nomad is my favorite place for lunch in the medina. The café has a lovely terrace that overlooks “spice square,” where you can view all the exotic spice vendors. Bonus: They take craft cocktails seriously here. LALLA French owner Laetitia Trouillet crafts chic handbags—think studded leather clutches—and accessories at this boutique in the hip Guéliz district. Her bags, scarves and headbands make wonderful gifts for friends back home.

DAR MOHA This restaurant was once the home of French designer Pierre Balmain. I like to sit by the pool, but all the rooms are charming. There is a set menu with many courses of Moroccan food, so be prepared for a feast.

MAISON DU KAFTAN Perhaps no article of clothing conjures images of Morocco quite like the free-flowing kaftan. Also located in the medina, this store is stocked with versions of the garment in all colors, styles and price ranges.

BELDI COUNTRY CLUB If you need a peaceful respite from the commotion of the souk, you can’t beat this place for a leisurely swim or a spa treatment. Grab a French-style lunch by the pool—the salade nicoise is divine!

ARTFUL LODGER Jasper Conran has designed women’s fashion, menswear, accessories and home goods, but he’s never attached his name and aesthetic to a hotel—until now. L’Hôtel Marrakech is the British designer’s first foray into luxury lodging. “Opening a hotel has brought together all that I enjoy working on the most: food, textiles, interiors and gardens,” he says. Located in a 19th-century riad (a traditional Moroccan dwelling with an interior courtyard) in the heart of the medina, the otherworldly retreat combines modern-day amenities with oldfashioned glamour. “Marrakesh is a city of amazing contrasts where one can wander along dark alleys and emerge into exquisite gardens and beautiful courtyards,” he says. “I wanted to make L’Hôtel Marrakech a comfortable home, where people feel immediately welcome and happy.” l-hotelmarrakech.com

3 a la mode A half century ago, the desert city of Marrakesh cast a spell over fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent, forever influencing his work. To honor that legacy, the long-awaited Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech, designed by Studio KO, will open its doors in October. Located on the street bearing his name near the Jardin Marjorelle—the legendary garden that he and longtime partner Pierre Bergé saved from development in 1980—the museum will feature permanent and rotating exhibitions as well as a library, café and restaurant. “This city deeply influenced Yves’ life and work, particularly his discovery of color,” says Bergé. “The Studio KO architects share this passion for Marrakesh and their clean, uncluttered style recalls his work.”

4 HALLO BERLIN!

German architect Gisbert Pöppler has crafted sophisticated, jewel-box spaces throughout Berlin during his 20-year career. Over the years, he’s cultivated a number of favorite haunts throughout the art-centric city. Below, he shares a few picks. gisbertpoeppler.com

Emperor Wilhelm II, and its garden is a calming hideaway in the middle of the city.

8:30 a.m. I love starting the day with breakfast in the Wintergarten café at Literaturhaus Berlin. The villa was built in 1889, during the reign of

2 p.m. I stop by Trouvé-Berlin for a little treasure hunting. This vintage furniture store is dedicated to French and Italian design of the 20th century.

10 a.m. Head to Berlinische Galerie (shown above), a new museum whose primary collection is composed of art produced in the city, spanning from 1870 to present-day. 12 p.m. Hunger strikes, so I pop into Salumeria Lamuri, a casual Italian restaurant located in the Kreuzberg neighborhood. It’s my favorite intimate spot for a satisfying lunch with a good glass of wine.

5

3 p.m. For treasure of a different sort, visit René Talmon l’Armée’s shop. The jewelry designer makes beautiful pieces using 18-karat gold, oxidized silver and naturally colored diamonds. 4 p.m. To get a sense of Berlin’s decadence in the 1920s, check out the museum at the LiebermannVilla. German painter Max Liebermann’s old summer residence by Lake Wannsee holds many of the artist’s paintings and has an impressive garden. 7 p.m. Briefmarken Weine is a low-key wine bar that occupies a former East German storefront— its neon sign “Briefmarken” translates to “stamps.” With amazing pasta, antipasto and wine, it’s the perfect spot to end the day.

AGAINST THE GRAIN

File this one under happy accidents: Cologne-based designer Meike Harde was staining fabric when some of the pigment spilled onto her wooden worktop, leaving streaks of bold color to run along the grain of the surface. In that moment, her Wooden Aquarelle project was born. Based on a technique once used by German Expressionist painters, Harde’s process of applying color to wood is random, so no two panels are alike. With their intense hues and soft transitions, the panels resemble dreamy, hypnotic watercolors. When applied to furnishings, like the triangular nesting tables seen here, the effect is mesmerizing. meikeharde.com

LOCAL FLAVOR Nearly 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the German city has enjoyed a renewed reputation as a decadent and cosmopolitan hub for the international art and design scene, and many of its unique hotels reflect that vibe. Here, we present four urban retreats that cater to individualized style.

EDGY LUXURY ECLECTIC AND PLAYFUL 25HOURS HOTEL BIKINI BERLIN Housed in a former 1950s high-rise, this hotel’s youthful vibe comes from the whimsical interiors of German designer Werner Aisslinger. Bicycles dangle from the lobby’s ceiling and hammocks hang in rooms overlooking the city zoo, providing the perfect perch for checking out the wildlife. 25hours-hotels.com

SHANGHAI SURPRISE

There’s no shortage of personality in Jamie Drake’s glamorous, modern, color-saturated interiors. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, then, that the celebrated New York designer also has a reputation for being quite the bon vivant. What better insider to share his idea of a perfect day in the cosmopolitan city of Shanghai? drakeanderson.com 7:30 a.m. Rise and shine at The Peninsula hotel located right on The Bund, the famed waterfront promenade. Enjoy the view of the new city of Pudong across the Huangpu River. From here, I can see the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, an awesome 1,535-foot spire that looks like it came right off the pages of a futuristic comic book. 8:30 a.m. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the lobby, the hotel’s airy and spacious hub. The smoked salmon with a single scrambled egg is perfect, and the breads and pastries from the buffet are hard to resist; though, I do try to limit myself. 10 a.m. I always make time after breakfast for a relaxed morning walk along The Bund to admire the city. It’s a good way to get revved up for the day ahead, and it’s the best time to avoid the massive crowds that descend on the area at

LX_COM14_TheReport.indd 184

lunchtime. With so many different types of buildings, the neighborhood is a living museum of architectural styles. 12:30 p.m. Off to the Longhua Pagoda and Temple. It features a vegetarian restaurant, which is quite common for an active Buddhist temple. The superb main course is a soup bowl filled with carefully prepared garden delights and noodles. In the nearby entry area, school children learn how to make dumplings. 2 p.m. After lunch, tour the pagoda and temple with one of the monks as a guide. The multiple buildings are filled with spectacular carved and gilded deities. I’m in awe of one of the halls in particular; it’s filled with 500 golden statues. My kind of army—peace-loving and glittering! 3 p.m. Check out more furniture showrooms in the design district around Jiangning Road. Some of the wares are eye-poppingly over-the-top, but there are a few quieter, modern offerings as well. 5:30 p.m. Sneak back to the hotel for a muchneeded rest and pre-dinner nap. 8 p.m. If you grow weary of Asian food, opt for French food at the sensational bistro Franck, located in the French Concession neighborhood.

By this time, a martini up with a twist is sorely needed, and much enjoyed. When I’m there, I order a traditional Gallic meal and wash it down with a light Beaujolais. For dessert: rich and decadent chocolate mousse. 10:45 p.m. Lights out—until the next time. Xie Xie!

INSIDE STORY For over 20 years, Kerry Phelan has been a leading force in the Melbourne design scene, creating elegant spaces that are understated but luxurious. Here, she gives us the scoop on her effortlessly hip hometown. kpdo.com

What quality makes Melbourne design unique? Melbourne has a different feel than Sydney. It has a colder climate, and it’s moodier; whereas, Sydney is all about the sunshine and the harbor. Our design always nods to our natural environment. Why do you think the city is having a moment? The influx of a lot of new restaurants, cafés and bars has given designers a chance to be more adventurous. Also, the residential property market is extremely competitive—developers not only employ designers as a marketing tool, but also to promote a Melbourne lifestyle. Finally, there’s Instagram, which is creating its own, universal visual language, bringing Australian design to an international audience.

DRAMATIC TURN Sydney designer Greg Natale, known for his fondness of bold colors and geometric patterns, has won international acclaim for his tailored, sophisticated interiors. Read on for his take on design in the land down under. gregnatale.com What sets Australian design apart? I think our geography has helped to create our own “international” style. We’re influenced by our traditional European roots, but we also admire the creativity and industriousness of America. Factor in our proximity to Asia and our mild climate, and you can see how Australian design has evolved into its own thing.

the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which is next to the Royal Botanic Gardens, or the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, which is nestled on the shores of Sydney Harbor. It may sound clichéd, but if you’re ever in town, you must visit the Sydney Opera House to see a show and take in the amazing architecture by Jørn Utzon.

Favorite Aussie designers past and present: I am a big admirer of the late architect Harry Seidler. His work was ahead of its time and his career spanned many decades. His projects weren’t always warmly received, but his provocative work defined a style and an era of Australian architecture.

Dream project: I would love to try my hand at a private jet—who wouldn’t! There’s a challenge in creating a chic interior with so many restrictions on space and functionality.

Must-see sites when visiting Sydney: As an art lover, I always make sure to drop into

LX_COM14_TheReport.indd 209

Favorite local design brands: Chris Connell Design is brilliant for all things furniture, product, interiors and architecture; he’s been a driving force over the last 25 years for original design. And Bruce Rowe from Anchor Ceramics does phenomenal sculpture and planter vessels.

Up next: I recently launched a collection of decorative glass mosaic tiles with Italian brand Bisazza. I also did a new collection of hand-knotted Tibetan wool and silk rugs, and I’ve got new housewares out later this year.

BREWSTER MCLEOD ARCHITECTS

Brewster McLeod Architects, BMA, was founded in 2006 with a focus on improving the client-architectcontractor relationship throughout the design and building process. The firm’s founder, Jamie L. Brewster McLeod, believes that communication is key for building such symbiotic relationships and providing clients an enjoyable experience, from concept to completion. “I always recommend clients select an architect who understands their intentions, style and overall concepts, but who also enhances the process through excellent design and understanding of space,” McLeod says. “I remind them it’s a relationship that lasts throughout the building process, so communication and common understanding are pivotal.” Eleven years later, BMA has grown into a full-service architecture, land-use planning and interiors firm with a boutique approach that results in uniquely tailored services for each of its clients. From family compounds, Western ranches and luxury modern homes, to fishing cabins, pool cabanas and a tree house, the firm’s varied portfolio speaks to its focus on balancing nature with design. Though recognized for an eclectic palette of styles, McLeod favors mountain contemporary for its traditional take on space, and design blended with clean materials and finishes. No matter the style, three elements remain: quality, value and exceeding client expectations. When it comes to inspiration, McLeod says traveling never ceases to deliver but, at the end of the day, it’s the clients who make the work fun. “Seeing their dreams built, and having them say, ‘It's better than I ever imagined,’ makes it all worthwhile,” she says.

SHEPHERD RESOURCES, INC/AIA

Wise, engaging and successful ... three words that come to mind when describing the clientele of architectural firm, Shepherd Resources. The same could be said of its principals, Douglas M. DeChant, Adam Harrison and Thomas Cole who, together, have contributed to establishing the firm’s position as one of the finest studios in the Rocky Mountain region. What began 28 years ago creating fine resort architecture has developed into a firm focused on high-end residential, ranch and resort projects throughout the region. “We set our priorities on listening, creativity and detail to build these relationships,” says DeChant, whose childhood passion for creating things and recognition of resonant spaces led to his chosen profession. While each new site and each new client provides the team with endless inspiration, they take a more formulaic approach when it comes to their creative process. “Our creativity results from listening and exploring. We listen to the client and to the land, and then we gather as a studio to explore,” Harrison explains. “We enjoy creative dialogue and watching amazing solutions emerge.” Cole adds, “We are influenced by our clients and what we hear from the land. From this dialogue, a fresh language evolves for each project.” This fresh language has resulted in fresh projects for the firm, including a home renovation in San Francisco’s Presidio neighborhood that includes building completely new spaces, finishes and outdoor living environments. They’ve even gone back to their roots, rewriting the Beaver Creek Resort architectural design guidelines—an exciting project they say, “will encourage progressive design.” Perfect for this forward-thinking firm.

How do you define luxury? In architecture, luxury is the manner in which clients’ lives are embraced by the firm’s efforts. It is certainly not a brand. It is a way of charging clients' lives with something richly satisfying and often unexpected. How do you define a successful project? When the result is cause for celebration, and the home endures. Speaking to your line of work, what constitutes “good design”? Solutions that are engaging, imaginative, progressive and enduring.

ZONE 4 ARCHITECTS

With the beauty of the Rocky Mountains and the Aspen lifestyle at their disposal, architects Bill Pollock and Dylan Johns, principals of Zone 4 Architects, are never at a loss for design inspiration. “The Rocky Mountains provide an infinite majesty of natural inspiration, and Aspen has a rich history, from the Victorian mining era to the modernists of the 1950s and 60s,” Pollock says. “Zone 4’s clients come from very diverse backgrounds, and bring very different thoughts about their preferred design style.” With a decidedly modern education, including architects Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Alvar Aalto as mentors, Pollock and Johns put themselves on Aspen’s design map with contemporary projects that stood out among the more traditional, timber architecture of the time. “Zone 4 represented a new design vision. Word then got out that whether traditional or contemporary, Zone 4 put together designs that were well-proportioned, had great flow and created a pleasant design process for its clients,” Johns says. Focusing on this need for a more client-driven approach, Zone 4 has since become known for listening intently to its clients and acting as the medium who brings their vision to life. “Getting to know the personalities and experiences of our clients, and how they envision architecture as an extension of their lives is the best part of our job,” Pollock says. In addition to its work in the Roaring Fork Valley, Zone 4 has also completed a residence in Wainscott, New York, and several conceptual design projects in Paradise Valley, Arizona. No matter where Zone 4 branches its architectural arm, the firm defines success as an enjoyable and engaging process, from concept to completion.

hen a couple from Iowa were ready for a change, they made it a big one. After selling a business they had owned for more than 30 years, the pair set out on an adventure to look for a new home. “We decided to pursue a lifelong dream of living out West,” the wife says. That dream led them to the Roaring Fork Valley, where they landed on a 50-acre ranch overlooking Mount Sopris. “We traveled all over the West and wound up in this valley,” the husband says of the picturesque locale near Carbondale. “It feels like we’re in a very remote setting, yet we’re only 15 minutes from culture and dining. It’s the perfect balance.” The couple occupied a barn-turned-woodshop on the expansive site while residential designer Dana Ellis worked to replace an existing structure on the property with their new house. “My clients wanted an intimate home that felt warm with a tinge of rustic,” says Ellis, who worked on the project with principal John Rowland, designer Brett Lohr and project manager Scott McHale. “They especially liked the idea of using natural materials.” The homeowners, who are amateur woodworkers, took that idea literally into their own hands, as they used the time during the yearlong project to construct vanities for the powder room and a reclaimed-oak coffee table. The husband also worked with the youngest of their three grown sons to handcraft a dining table using wood from an Iowa barn. Working off the clients’ affinity for straightforward materials, Ellis designed a simple farmhouse-inspired house, which she clad with dark gray siding and topped with a traditional gabled roof. In siting the home, she positioned the new structure next to a magnificent old cottonwood tree and a hand-dug irrigation channel, which flows like a stream during the spring and summer months. Builder Scott Scherer took extra care not to damage the tree’s roots or the water channel while razing the existing house before construction began. “We were able to donate the contents and most of the construction materials to a local nonprofit,” he says. “We were also able to repurpose sections of the existing foundation.” Landscape architect Gyles Thornely worked with project manager Katie Tabor to repair, restore and enhance the stream. To soften and ground the linear structure, they added volcanic rocks and local plants. “It’s a pastoral landscape experience with a mix of native perennials and ornamental grasses,” Thornely explains. Beyond the greenery, the duo also added concrete pavers around the north and west sides of the house and drew up a master plan for the rest of the site to include a chicken coop, a greenhouse and a large produce garden with fruit-bearing trees. The running waters of the newly enhanced stream proved to be a major inspiration for the home’s layout, which meanders from space to space with no fixed

LX_CO52_Ward_14.indd 225

corridors or hallways. “The circulation has more of a natural undulation,” Ellis explains. “It’s a livable progression, and there are nodes of activity that anchor the spaces.” While the kitchen and dining area act as two such nodes, she explains, they are not on axis with the fireplace in the living room or with the master suite. The trailing layout “creates more interesting exterior spaces as well,” the residential designer says. “The outdoor areas aren’t all the same size, because the interior volumes shift under the roof form.” To honor the imposing cottonwood tree, for instance, Ellis compressed the interior layout opposite it to create an inset that houses the dining area. “The roof form continues past the inset to create a covered outdoor space,” she says, pointing to one of two decks that overlook the bucolic setting. Light-colored walls and simple wood flooring tie the interior spaces together and create a soothing backdrop for the casual yet stylish furnishings the owners selected themselves. Plush sofas and leather chairs in the living room, for example, create a cozy gathering spot around a stone fireplace surround flanked by custom white cabinetry. Black-painted pine window frames introduce contrast and highlight the views. “The dark color absorbs the light, so your eyes have an easier time looking out,” Ellis explains. With the main residence now complete, the owners continue to make the most of their new life in the West, with intentions to implement Thornely’s master plan for the property as well as renovate the existing barn to add a covered outdoor bistro kitchen. “We thought it would be a great way to take advantage of such a beautiful setting,” the husband says. “This house creates a sense of calm. We can’t imagine it being any better.”

A

t first glance, the understated paper reliefs by Denver artist Rachel Doniger radiate a serene and minimalist appearance. But upon closer inspection, it’s clear they offer more than meets the eye—and that’s just the way Doniger likes it. “People viewing my reliefs will stand in front of them for a long time and look,” she says. “There is a lot to see and dissect, and that’s always been my intention.” Creating the pieces, which are made of raw cotton paper and can measure as large as 4-by-6 feet, is an arduous process. With a methodical and deliberate hand, Doniger makes thousands of tiny cuts and folds that, when executed en masse, come together to make up her graphic dimensional works. “I’ve taken notice of the Japanese aesthetic term shibui,” she says, referring to the word describing a quiet and unobtrusive style. “A shibui object might initially appear simple, but one can see something new every time they look at it. This is what I aspire to do in my work.” Doniger, who has a master’s degree in architecture, excels at the intersection of space, material and form. During her previous career as a residential designer, she experimented

“THERE IS FINALITY IN EACH CUT I MAKE, AND EACH MOVE WILL BE PRESENT IN THE FINAL PIECE.”

with paper, often crafting reliefs to represent a project. Those years of practice helped cultivate her artistic voice, and after moving to part-time architectural work in 2008, she was ready by 2014 to switch gears to focus on her artwork fulltime. “For me, making art is a form of meditation,” Doniger says. “It quiets my mind and helps me feel a sense of self.” She now creates from a homebased studio, where her work space includes a customized standing easel with an attached cutting mat and a table for smaller projects. Finding inspiration by hiking or taking nature walks, Doniger knows anything from rock formations to water can spark an idea for the organic forms that shape her work. Although she approaches every work with a concept in mind, “I discover the final form each piece will take as I go through the process of making it,” the artist says. That process begins when Doniger starts cutting. “While conventional art-making usually starts with a rough design that is gradually refined until the final details are added, I work in

the opposite direction,” she explains. “There is finality in each cut I make, and each move will be present in the final piece.” The work is slow and careful and can take upwards of a month to create her larger pieces. “If I make a mistake,” the artist notes, “I can’t undo a cut.” But unplanned errors occur, and Doniger responds in real time, allowing for a freedom to integrate those cuts into the overall design. “There is an organic nature to my work because of this,” she says. “It’s not too sterile or prescriptive.” Initially using only white archival paper—first wet down and then stretched to ensure a flat surface—Doniger has lately been experimenting with paint. The results are dynamic: dimensional pieces affected by light and shadow. But for the artist, her endeavors are not just exciting but also fulfilling, from start to finish. “I created this technique,” she explains, “so when I engage with it, I feel like I’m settling into something I’ve come to understand. This is who I am, and it is in only me.”

Doniger uses archival cotton paper (above, right) to create her works. For her larger pieces, she places the paper over a custom standing easel with a cutting mat attached (above, left). A close-up of a relief (opposite page) reveals the intricacies.

FRESH OUTLOOK STAYING TRUE TO ITS MODERNIST ROOTS, AN ASPEN RESIDENCE IS BROUGHT UP TO DATE. WRITTEN BY LAURA MAUK / PHOTOGRAPHY BY EMILY MINTON REDFIELD

LX_CO52_Hecht_14.indd 243

5/22/17 5:35 PM


Designers Barbara Glass Mullen and Richard Mullen gave a 1960s Aspen home a modern update. For the living area, Glass Mullen positioned a sofa and swivel chairs—all custommade by Mike Ragan/Rags in Los Angeles—around a Michael Berman Limited coffee table from John Brooks Incorporated. The custom rug is by Tai Ping.

hen a house has expansive windows that offer panoramic views of towering mountains, blue sky and miles of trees with green and gold leaves, it needs little else to be a sanctuary. Inspired by that idea, one Aspen couple decided to reevaluate the design of their 1960s home, which had been remodeled in an Arts and Crafts style in the 1990s. The structure’s look and feel needed to be simplified, so they called on designers Barbara Glass Mullen and Richard Mullen to reimagine the furnishings and the interior architecture. “The home hadn’t been remodeled for almost 20 years,” Glass Mullen says. Adds Mullen, “The clients wanted a more modern design, so we pointed them toward working with the architectural vocabulary of the original 1960s features.” Per their clients’ request, Glass Mullen and Mullen— who have since started separate firms, Barbara Glass and Demesne, respectively—worked together to update and brighten each part of the home. Mullen, who handled the interior architecture, began in the combined living, dining and kitchen area, where he transformed the aesthetic by recreating the original pyramid ceiling in the open-plan room. “The space had original wood beams that weren’t in good condition and had been covered with drywall,” he says. “A skylight had also been removed in a previous remodel and covered with drywall.” Mullen stripped every inch of drywall and then covered the beams and ceiling with new material. “We wrapped the ceiling as minimally

as possible in new wood of the same species, which was Douglas fir,” he says. “The idea was to feature the wood and restore the ceiling to what it was originally.” Although transformative for the structure, the ceiling was a challenge to execute. “We spent countless hours trying to figure out how to make the beams look the way Richard envisioned them,” says builder Max Filiss, who managed construction with firm president Dean Filiss and superintendent David Ice. “It was grueling but so worth it. That ceiling turned out to be a special feature of not only the room but the whole house.” The element now feels like an umbrella of warmth and texture from the expansive wood, which Mullen countered by refinishing the living area’s fire surround with steel and plaster. The updates continue in the kitchen, where Mullen and Glass Mullen collaborated with kitchen designer Daniel R. Ellis of Ellis Design to enlarge and reconfigure the space. “We relocated the appliances and the sink

LX_CO52_Hecht_14.indd 247

so the arrangement worked better for the homeowners’ lifestyle,” Mullen says. They then added luxurious materials— “The backsplash and the range hood are covered with Calacatta marble,” Glass Mullen says—and replaced the dated pine cabinetry with white oak finished with dark and light stains. “It’s very clean and acts as a foil to the marble, which has a lot of veining,” Mullen says. Floors throughout the house are now also a lighter white oak, as are the master bathroom’s new tub surround and the media room’s new built-in desk and cabinetry. Glass Mullen, who oversaw the furnishings, dressed the revised interior architecture with rich layers of texture and form. In the living area, she placed a pair of barrel chairs and a sinuous wood coffee table near a modernist sofa, all beneath a circular pendant. “The ceiling light fixture is from Ralph Pucci International and, like the coffee table, it has curves,” she says. “It balances the sharp geometry of the room. I like a softer approach to modern; it adds

Mullen recreated the pyramid ceiling, which was executed by the project’s builder, Max Filiss, above the open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas using Douglas fir from Diversified Lumber Products. The ceiling fixture, Circular Cumulus by Ted Abramczyk from Ralph Pucci International in Los Angeles, offers a counterpoint to the room’s linear elements.

character and is more comfortable.” The designer covered the barrel chairs and sofa with different fabric blends, including cotton and linen, and customized a wool-and-silk rug for the space. “Using layers of different fibers creates dimension and richness,” she says. “You sit on these fabrics, so they should feel amazing.” When it came to selecting a color palette, Glass Mullen took a “wintry approach,” she explains about the mostly blue, gray and white hues used throughout. “The owners had a lot of existing art, and I didn’t want the furnishings to compete with that,” she says. A sculpture of golden butterflies by Paul Villinski, for instance, hangs above the living area fireplace and plays off the calming tones of the surrounding textiles. In the adjacent dining area,

the designer countered the hefty silhouette of a whiteoak-and-stainless-steel table with traditional-style chairs wearing a silvery linen-and-viscose blend. Continuing the subtle palette in the master bedroom, she covered one wall with a muted but textural grass cloth as an anchor for a custom bed upholstered with another linen blend. Though the exterior of the residence received a minor update with fresh paint, the interior displays a completely new experience. The clean lines, rich materials and sophisticated palette create the perfect backdrop for honoring the structure’s sweeping views. “Our clients asked for something much cleaner and lighter,” Mullen says. “We paid homage to the home’s modernist roots but also brought it into the 21st century.”

Designers Katy Allen and Lindsey Iverson kept the palette light when selecting furnishings for an Edwards home featuring architecture by Rick Hermes and Tom Markalunas. In the spacious living room, an iron chandelier by David Iatesta hangs above leather wingbacks and a pair of upholstered chairs, all by Hickory Chair, and an Emerson Bentley sofa. The metal coffee tables are by RH, and the Eliko rug is from The Scarab.

Y

ou could say Ron and Kathy Iverson know houses. In addition to having 30 years of experience in the Vail real estate business, the couple have built or remodeled nine homes for themselves. So when they were ready for their 10th go-around, this time in Edwards, not surprisingly they came to the table with a clear vision of what they did and did not like. “We didn’t want the traditional mountain palette of dark wood colors,” Ron says. “We wanted a see-through house with lots of light and glass that took advantage of the long valley views.” In the right hands, the ski-in, ski-out site they purchased was poised to deliver on all counts. To start things off, the Iversons turned to their daughter, designer Katy Allen, and Rick Hermes, a real estate developer with a degree in environmental design. Hermes began by producing a hand-drawn sketch of a concept featuring an open floor plan and lots of windows. “Ron and Kathy desired elements like a large hearth room open to the kitchen to accommodate entertaining and visits from their children and grandchildren,” he says. “They wanted a fresh take on mountain style, and their vision allowed us to rethink conventional design and consider new ideas.” Some of those ideas came from Hermes’ longtime collaborator, South Carolina-based architect Tom Markalunas, who lived in Edwards for several years. Markalunas worked on the design with Hermes and then established the exterior massing, window layout and detailing along with the roof design. “Good fenestration, expansive glass and transparent elements were key,” he says.

A custom hand-carved table by Acadia Woods at the center of the dining area is encircled with Emerson Bentley chairs from Hoff Miller that wear a Kelly Wearstler for Groundworks textile. Julian Chichester lanterns from Carter Inc. hang above, while an RH wool-sisal rug adds a textural layer to the Arrigoni Woods white-oak floors.

Calacatta quartzite slabs from Galleria of Stone on the counters and backsplash add an elegant touch to the kitchen, where Genesis Hospitality Corporation crafted a combination of white-painted inset and rift-oak stained cabinetry. The durable indooroutdoor counter chairs are by Palecek, and the pendants are by Visual Comfort & Co.

Accordingly, a custom steel-and-glass window-and-door system within a stone barrel vault makes a commanding opening statement. As builder Greg Sands recalls, installing the overscale arched entry was not without its challenges. “The window and door package arrived out of sequence, which forced my team to erect the stone arch first,” he says. “They had to build the stonework precisely, so when the windows finally arrived they would fit perfectly—which they did.” To further enhance the entrance, the husband-and-wife landscape team of Jeff and Tomina Townsend crafted a bridge using Colorado buff flagstone. “The bridge crosses a dry stream bed and serves as an organizing element for the entry landscape,” Jeff Townsend says. “We also planted aspen and evergreen trees and shrubs to look as though they grew from the edges of the stream bed.” Ever mindful of eschewing a heavy and dark aesthetic, Allen and Hermes incorporated materials that honored the keep-it-light theme. They chose a gray-green Colorado moss rock—dry stacked inside and out—to complement French white-oak floors Allen selected and had waxed for an old-

LX_CO52_Iverson_14.indd 262

world look. As a contemporary counterpoint, large expanses of windows with wood frames stained black match the iron on the doors to the entry and the wine cellar. Against that sophisticated backdrop, Allen, the firm’s owner and the lead designer, coordinated with senior designer—and sister-in-law—Lindsey Iverson on selecting furnishings and accessories in a natural motif that reference the site’s aspens and evergreens. Rugs defined by hushed tones of cream, sage and taupe in the living room, kitchen and hearth room help get the job done. Also in the living room, a combination of leather wingbacks, upholstered chairs and a sofa in shades of cream and taupe with gray undertones continues the color scheme. In response to the area’s soaring 21-foot-tall ceiling, the designers selected seating in varying heights. “In such a voluminous room, getting the scale of the furnishings right is the number one priority,” Allen says. “Then you add in layers, like lamps and artwork, to keep the eye moving throughout the space.” As such, she suspended an iron chandelier from the ceiling’s antique beams for added intimacy.

A trio of upholstered Cisco Brothers chairs and ottomans—the latter upholstered with a Romo stripe— provides comfortable seating in the golf lounge. Uttermost lamps rest on side tables from Slifer Designs, and the carpet is from Ruggs Benedict Carpet One. The artwork came from Bungalow Furniture & Accessories in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Situated on the home’s lower level, a bunk room features a wood-andiron table by Sarreid Ltd. and a whimsical cut-metal globe pendant by Currey & Company. Draperies made with colorful Starburst fabric by Peter Dunham Textiles play off the neutral scheme and provide a cheerful backdrop for blue-painted chairs from Anthropologie and a banquette by Hickory Chair.

To play off the home’s more contemporary moments—and in keeping with Kathy’s affinity for cottage-style elements— Allen and Iverson introduced unique objets trouvé. “I grew up on a lake in Michigan, so having a sense of coziness and charm was very important,” Kathy explains. The master suite, for example, opens with a sitting area that features a table with an industrial top and a carved wood base. Upholstered wingback chairs complete the welcoming nook. “My motherin-law loves vignettes where we combined found items with cleaner pieces,” Iverson says. The unexpected pairings continue in the suite’s sleeping quarters, where a metal-frame

LX_CO52_Iverson_14.indd 266

bed is juxtaposed with a carved wood bench and found objects-turned-table lamps. “There are a lot of masculine elements in the room, like the bed and metal nightstands, but the florals carved into the bench and the vertical softness of the window treatments keep things warm,” Allen says. The balance of design styles throughout the house, combined with materials thoughtfully selected to maintain a light and bright look, contributes to the overall success of the project. “It took a village to build this place,” Ron says, “but thanks to a great design team, we managed to get all the elements we really like into one house.”

A sitting area at the entrance to the master bedroom is appointed with Hickory Chair wingbacks from Hoff Miller and a Noir round table with a metal top and carved-wood base. The hand-knotted-and-dyed Eliko rug is from The Scarab.

5/23/17 3:30 PM


Bookcases fabricated by Genesis Hospitality Corporation fill one portion of the study in the master retreat. Artworks from Soicher Marin hang above a Noir sofa, which is accented with plaid pillows. The coffee table is by Taracea; the rug is from The Scarab.

Opposite: The master bathroom features a quiet but textured use of tile, including travertine on the floor and the walls of the shower, which also has an accent wall of Daltile’s Fusion Blanc Large Chevron. The cabinetry is by Genesis Hospitality Corporation, and the freestanding Elise tub by MTI Baths and polished-chrome tub filler by Brizo are from Ferguson. Below: In the master bedroom, an upholstered metal bed by Century Furniture is juxtaposed with a carved bench with a hair-on-hide seat from Thrive and Design in Atlanta. Found objects were repurposed into lamps, which rest on metal nightstands by Made Goods. The rug is by Boga Oriental Rugs, and the draperies were made with an Anna French fabric.
