EDITOR’S LETTER

This issue is largely dedicated to homegrown design and to the independent makers and companies who are dialing into the made-in-America movement. To be sure, we live in a time where there are no clear-cut guidelines in design (perhaps there never were). Thanks to globalization, social media and the flood of visuals that pass our eyes daily, the sartorial choices we make for our homes are broad and vast, as they should be. Yet there is no denying the underlying current of old-school craftsmanship permeating the landscape. Call it “Americana Chic.” Stamp it “Made in America.” Today, homeowners are embracing all things artisanal, authentic and local. They want to know where the objects being brought into their homes are made and by whom. Makers in cities across the country (who we happily uncover in every issue of Luxe) are responding with thoughtfully crafted forms and materials that appeal to the new sensibility. Ultimately, of course, 21st-century design is a mix; a multicultural mash-up of ideas, with, perhaps, a pinch of Florence, a dose of Athens and, for good measure, a smattering of Detroit.

CONTRIBUTORS

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

LAURA MAUK

Writer / Washington, D.C. What made you want to become a writer? Curiosity. I love finding out why individuals think the way they do. I also enjoy stringing words together in what I hope is a painterly way that gives people understanding or lets them see something differently. If I could interview anyone, it would be… Frida Kahlo, Georgia O’Keeffe, Frank Lloyd Wright or Donald Judd. They were all revolutionaries with such unique visions and strong characters. Each of them led an interesting life, making iconic art and architecture in authentic and thoughtful ways. Is there anything intriguing you currently in the world of design? I love the way design continues to connect to nature with lots of glass, sunlight and simple, organic materials. Form and texture have evolved and, as a result, I feel that buildings and furniture today are much more dynamic. Photographer / New York

If you could shoot anywhere in the U.S., where would it be? I would love to have the opportunity to experience, and also photograph, James Turrell’s Roden Crater in Arizona. His work is all about light, space and how we as viewers perceive our surroundings. Most memorable Luxe assignment: A Hamptons house with the talented Jennifer Post. Light is a critical feature for every architectural or interiors shoot and, in this case, the changing weather conditions worked perfectly throughout our day—cloudy or sunny when we needed it! What type of architecture inspires you? Truly bespoke structures that elegantly solve problems and create energetic, livable spaces. I’ve had a longtime collaboration with architect Ali Tayar, and the houses he has designed—from Rhode Island to Beirut—embody this approach with refinement and finesse. Documenting these environments is both challenging and invigorating.

COM_LX6_Contributors_098.indd 98

JOE FLETCHER

Photographer / San Francisco Biggest influences: Creatives in the worlds of art, photography and film, especially the work of Edward Burtynsky, Robert Polidori, Thomas Demand and Jeff Wall. Most exciting thing happening in design today: The amount of design that’s shared worldwide via social media. What type of architecture do you find most impactful? Quiet, minimalistic architecture—designs that let nature do the talking. If I could splurge on anything… It would be on a trip to Greece for my family so we can enjoy the turquoise sea and fried cheeses in the shade. Or a piece by Thomas Demand.

LINDA HAYES

Writer / Colorado Favorite Luxe interview: It was for a home on Vancouver Island. On an early meeting with the architect, Brian Hemingway, the owner of the house watched him take out a pen and just start drawing; he told me that observing him was such a magical part of the process. The image that conjured up has always stuck with me. My biggest design influence comes from… The process of architecture and its ability to transform the simplest idea into an elegant, functional structure. It reminds me that creativity is about both the journey and the destination. Who is the most fascinating person you’ve ever met? Charles Smith, owner of Charles Smith Wines in Walla Walla, Washington. He’s a bigger-thanlife personality, an intuitive thinker and a brilliant marketer. He led the recent design of his new Seattle winery, as well as the restoration of his midcentury house, with local architect Tom Kundig. Impressive!

HOME GROWN FURNITURE PRODUCTION RETURNS STATESIDE IN WHAT IS PROVING TO BE A REBIRTH OF THE AMERICAN CRAFTSMAN. WRITTEN BY MIEKE TEN HAVE / PRODUCED BY ARLYN HERNANDEZ

or American furniture production, the yen for substantive, enduring quality— something commonplace only decades ago—has certainly reached a fever pitch in a day where genuineness in products is all but profuse. This nostalgic zeitgeist is ushering in a new wave of makers from various disciplines and perspectives, each bound by the desire to create in unique, original ways. “Design is the key,” says Sara Ossana of Warren, Rhode Island-based O&G Studio. “We’ve tapped into the idea that good design could save the continuity of craftsmanship.” Artist and furniture craftsman Ian Stell of New York City, known

LXCOM_Radar_Made_In_America_107.indd 108

for his highly unorthodox, mesmerizingly sculptural pieces, simply calls this widespread craving for authenticity an “American design renaissance.” “There’s a competition that has been intensifying,” he says, “and it’s pushing both quality and originality.” But what is American furniture design today? According to Brooklyn-based designer Asher Israelow, it is not bound by a style but rather an ethos. “There is no aesthetic correlation,” he says, “but it is aspirational; it’s forward-thinking. It’s reinventing the wheel. American designers are not necessarily bogged down by traditional craft techniques and apprenticeships that perhaps

our European counterparts are.” Israelow was studying architecture in school when on a whim, he took up woodworking while completing his thesis. “I’m entirely self-taught with wood. It became an obsessive hobby,” he says. Instead of becoming an architect, Israelow shifted gears to furniture because he believed it would provide more creative license. It is a circuitous route to furniture production that many young designers echo. Los Angeles-based Sabin Ousey was working in sales at Lawson-Fenning when he began making furniture for his own apartment as a creative outlet, prompting him to open his own company last January. His collection pays

homage to various viewpoints, from Paul McCobb to Spanish Colonial motifs. “America, particularly California, lacks centuries of history, so it gives us an opportunity to forge a new aesthetic,” says Ousey. “Rather than copying tradition, we are playing with historic motifs. That is how new genres and trends emerge.” New York interior designer Eddie Lee finds an egalitarian quality in today’s design scene. “Furniture makers are coming from all different backgrounds these days,” he says. “That’s a very American concept.” Stephen Antonson, the Brooklyn plaster master who references Giacometti and Gio Ponti in his sculptural line of work, thinks there is something

LXCOM_Radar_Made_In_America_107.indd 109

to this “design first” ingenuity that separates the successful American designer. “You can go to the design shows and say, ‘oh, there’s the guy that studied woodworking in school: he’s made the most amazing dovetail you’ve ever seen,’ but it’s rather uninspired design-wise,” he says. Like Israelow and Ousey, Antonson never studied plaster or furniture making in school. “I think there’s a streak of naiveté that allows good designers to do weird things, to be open to doing something backward. That’s where innovation happens. You’re not trying to make this boring, perfect thing that is like all the other boring, perfect things.” Ty Best of Chicago’s Caste Design,

None of this is to say that design traditions do not inform the current American furniture marketplace. Stickley, the pioneer of Mission and American Arts and Crafts furniture, has been around for over a century and has changed hands only once—from the original Stickley family to the Audi family in 1974—all the while employing their original, traditional woodworking techniques. That is not to say that the Manlius, New York-based company hasn’t propelled forward with every generation; Aminy Audi, the CEO of Stickley, credits this to the company’s diversification and a resistance to laurelresting. “We’ve added many different styles, from updated traditional to midcentury modern collections,” she says, adding, however, that it is the education of the consumer that matters most.

Clockwise from top: Los Angeles’ Sabin taps local craftsmen to manufacture its made-to-order offerings; the Rexford cabinet is shown. Black walnut and solid brass inlay comprises the Neversink table by Asher Israelow of Brooklyn. From the mind of interior designer Brad Ford, Field + Supply is a yearly modern makers craft fair in High Falls, New York; the U bench by Luur Studio, sold through The Future Perfect, is an example of what’s in store for fair goers. A peek at Israelow’s process.

who formerly had a life and career in the fashion industry, also echoes the sentiment: “It sounds sort of Pollyanna, but I never knew about the possibilities of what could go wrong; I went into it head first without any hesitation.” Best’s refined, hand-hewn pieces, often in weighty materials like bronze and marble, are nationally distributed by Holly Hunt. He finds the isolation of rural Montana instead of community hotbeds like Brooklyn or Los Angeles to be the best source of unfiltered inspiration. “I think if I had more contemporaries opining on my designs, my work wouldn’t be so avant-garde,” he says.

1/21/16 6:04 PM

“When people understand the work and quality behind one of these pieces, they realize it is a lifetime investment. It is something they can pass on to a future generation.” O&G Studio is a contemporary example of modernizing a deeply ingrained American motif—the Windsor chair, whose roots stem from our earliest English colonists. Ossana and partner Jonathan Glatt electrify the genre with unexpected colors and proportions. “It’s something intrinsic to the American design community,” Ossana says, “our history allows us to question authority.” New York-based interior designer Brad Ford, who has become a kind of pied piper for independent craftsmanship, says, “The U.S. has become one of the most dynamic places for burgeoning design talent.” Last October, Ford held his second-annual Field + Supply fair in High Falls, New York. “Growing up in a small town in Arkansas and being a creative kid, I always loved going to the arts and crafts fairs,” he says. “It created a sense of community that is now so often lacking.” Ford decided to take this concept and elevate it by cherry-picking some of the best American designers across various disciplines, like Israelow, Apparatus and The Future Perfect. “With Field + Supply, we want the work to be serious but the experience to be anything but,” he says, adding, “It is important that design not be alienating. Consumers are more and more responding to the meaning and soul of something that is made by hand. It automatically separates itself from other mass-produced furnishings.” Ford is so confident in the shifting consumer paradigm that this fall, he opened Fair, a showroom at the New York Design Center highlighting elevated craft and design, representing many of the American designers he curated for Field + Supply. No matter the aesthetic, whether historically referential or avant-garde, the independent American furniture maker offers a quality that an outsourced big-box manufacturer simply can’t. “My clients want to understand and know the object that they have a personal relationship with; our local makers give us that,” says interior designer Celerie Kemble, who is deeply involved in keeping artisan traditions afloat—particularly with The Alpha Workshops, the nation’s only nonprofit organization providing creative HIV-positive individuals with industry-specific training and employment in the decorative arts. “People are increasingly caring about these pieces that they live with. Furniture is a very intimate thing, and so, too, should be the process.”

INFORMED BY HIS VORACIOUS APPETITE FOR TRAVEL, JIUN HO’S SCULPTURAL LINE OF FURNITURE CELEBRATES AN ANNIVERSARY.

Above: In his San Francisco studio, designer Jiun Ho stands near one of his No More Play tables, part of the Jiun Ho Collection V line and inspired by Alberto Giacometti’s sculpture of the same name.

For Jiun Ho, the San Francisco designer behind the furniture collection that bears his name, it all comes down to narrative. “I want to tell a story,” he says of the line, now celebrating its 15th anniversary. More often than not, the stories stem from his travels (he spends at least three months a year traveling the world, with recent stops in Kyoto and Sicily). “I take a lot of pictures to remind me of my experiences,” he notes. “There are times when I look at things and say ‘that could be a base for a dining table’ and there are times when I have to look at the photo, take a step back and create from there.” He points to the Maras chair in his newly introduced Jiun Ho Collection V as an example. “If you look at the lines of the chair and the stonework found at Machu Picchu and Sacsahuamán in Peru, you can see where the inspiration comes from.” The rest of the 16-piece collection similarly draws on Ho’s wide-ranging travels and experiences, as well as weaves together the narrative threads of previous introductions and makes graceful allusions to modern art. When first launching his business, though, the designer’s primary objective was not building a furniture brand, but rather to create unique spaces and user-friendly experiences. Then a client asked him if he would sketch some furniture. “I said, ‘Sure, I can give it a try,’ ” he recalls. “I came up with 35-40 pieces.” Connecting with a factory based in Southern California, Ho began manufacturing the pieces (most of which have been made in the United States ever since) and a brand was born. As the company has evolved, so has Ho’s approach. “We create the trends; we don’t let them drive us,” he says. “We focus on timeless, elegant shapes and forms and emphasize the tranquility, balance and pureness of the pieces. That, and attention to detail, is what’s important to us.”

HISTORY REPEATING AN ICONIC AMERICAN ESTATE SERVES AS A MUSE FOR WILDWOOD LAMPS & ACCENTS’ LATEST COMPENDIUM OF LIGHTING.

ARCHITECTURAL ANTIQUES: COURTESY AUTHENTIC PROVENCE.

WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY CARA GIBBS PHOTOGRAPHY BY CLAUDIA URIBE

Steeped in rich, historical references, the Biltmore Estate has been inspiring design and architecture since its reveal in 1895 by George Washington Vanderbilt II, grandson of famed industrialist and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt. The 250-room French Renaissance château set upon 8,000 acres of pristine Ashville, North Carolina, land was designed as a country retreat for the family and remained so well into the 20th century. With certainly no shortage of inspiration to draw from—the house itself features over 100,000 square feet comprised of 35 bedrooms, 43 bathrooms and 65 fireplaces— the artisanal team behind Wildwood Lamps & Accents turned to the estate as a muse for their most recent collection, receiving unparalleled access to the pieces that made this sprawling house a home. One such piece uncovered during the brand’s creative pursuit was an ancient cinnabar box belonging to George’s wife, Edith Stuyvesant Dresser Vanderbilt. Quickly recognizing the potential in the raised floral relief etching, the Wildwood team developed big plans for the motif: Aptly named after the lady of the house, the resulting Edith lamps (shown) are conveyed in three colorways that each take on a different persona. The Edith lamp in Red, for instance, reflects a traditional Asian-like feel, while the Powder Blue hue professes a more serene garden-esque vibe; Oyster proves to be the chameleon of the group, able to live in both modern and traditional environments. All flaunting brushed finishes, modern silhouettes and sleek drum shades, this versatile collection effusively transcends aesthetics, genres and eras—taking its place as a graceful classic with a firm foothold in today’s interiors.

ATHENS, GEORGIA-BASED CREATOR SUSAN HABLE LENDS HER DESIGN TALENT AND ARTISTIC VISION TO A CHIC NEW HOME COLLECTION. WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY LACY MORRIS PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHRIS BRANTLEY/WHITE ORANGE PRODUCTIONS

You are involved in a little bit of everything—painting, textiles, furniture, interiors. What led you to where you are today? I’ve always been an artist, and after working for several small businesses, mostly in jewelry, I realized that it was time to start my own design company. My sister, Katharine Hable Sweeney, and I launched Hable Construction in New York City in 1999, but in 2009, I decided to make the move to Athens. This was an eye-opening experience in that I realized how productive having my own studio was for my art. Describe your design aesthetic. I don’t play by the rules and I don’t discriminate where I turn to for inspiration—one day it’s Egyptian metalwork and the next it’s a Japanese kimono. I look to different cultures for inspiration in my color palettes and patterns. Tell us about your relationship with Hickory Chair. We started working together about six years ago on an exclusive fabric collection, and we’ve grown from there. Our common goals were to create quality products and make as many pieces domestically as possible. Why do you think it’s so important to keep production stateside? It is crucial for me to see the furniture being prototyped with my eyes on the product, and I work with the designers and engineers to make sure that all of the details that make the pieces special are being executed as they should. It’s such a luxury to see the hands that go into making each piece of our collection. We love the blue mirrored console for Hickory Chair’s sister company, La Barge (shown). It’s part of 25 new pieces we are adding to the original collection for the brand, and it is made with gilded wood and blue glass. I had seen that blue shade in a few midcentury pieces, but nothing current; we searched all over until we finally tracked it down abroad. I’m crazy about simple design that is also chic, and I think this geometric piece fits the bill and would be fantastic in a foyer. What’s next? An additional collection for Hickory Chair will come later this year. The pieces are incredible, with a lot of new silhouettes, and our focus continues to be on the sculptural aspect of each design. Visually, the new collection will tell a more transitional, modern story. Incorporating an artistic approach to design, I work hard to let the tiniest of details speak for the entire product.

Why hardware? I was attracted to the partnership with Rocky Mountain Hardware because of the high-quality products they produce—handcrafted hardware made with time-honored casting methods. It was a pleasure to work with all of the talented artisans that created these pieces. What was it about Beverly Hills’ Trousdale Estates that inspired you? I moved to Los Angeles when I was 11 years old and it was then that I was first exposed to midcentury modern design. The Trousdale area boasts amazing midcentury architecture created by such a diverse group of architects. What I loved about these

homes in contrast to the boxy apartments that I was accustomed to in New York was that they had clean lines, open floor plans and, in a lot of cases, an abundance of glass. They were like the glamorous homes I had seen in Hollywood movies. And this collection represents that. Tell us more about the artistry and techniques. At Rocky Mountain, they still cast and finish each piece by hand, which is so impressive; they really bring to life this high level of artistry. With Trousdale, we wanted to generate products that married that craftsmanship with a modern aesthetic. The texture came out of wanting a more tactile experience with each piece, as well as serves as a way to visually emphasize the handcrafted nature. Give us a peek at your creative process. It’s a combination of sketching, looking at historical references and listening to music. “Hollywood Swinging” by Kool & the Gang was definitely inspirational in making this line. Finishes can truly transform a piece—taking something from traditional to totally rock and roll. Take us through the finishes. Trousdale will be offered in all of the Rocky Mountain finishes. Personally, I will be using the bronze light finish on a home I’m building in the Bahamas.

Lenny Kravitz has made no efforts to conceal his passion for interiors—establishing New Yorkbased Kravitz Design and producing several successful product lines. His latest collaboration with Rocky Mountain Hardware is yet another notch on his already-impressive design belt. In tune with both the artist’s modern aesthetic and love for classic design, the Rocky Mountain brand was more than prepared to bring Kravitz’s ideas to life. The resulting Trousdale collection combines a powerful ensemble of textures and shapes that culminates in a truly harmonious and showstopping array of hardware. We sat down with Kravitz as he discussed his latest collection.

WHO: Abby Kellett, a Miami-based interior stylist and the shopkeeper responsible for Gretel, a design-centric accessories store. You can visit her virtually at gretelhome.com. WHAT: If you’re a fan of beautifully styled interiors, great products and bold colors, Kellett shares your obsession, and you can expect to find it on full display on her Instagram feed. WHY: Because who doesn’t like pretty things? Logging on is like shopping her online boutique. Along with posting new Gretel products, Kellett is known to upload images of anything from flowers and floors to brightly colored ribbons and washi tape. IN HER WORDS: “I try to show the things I photograph in an interesting way—the tabletop aftermath of a dinner party rather than the set table before the guests arrived. I hope people who follow me will start seeing everyday things in a new way.”

ONE THOUSAND MUSEUM

It’s impossible to discuss Miami’s design evolution without highlighting One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects—a sculptural residential development that will soar above Museum Park and Biscayne Bay. With O’Donnell Dannwolf and Partners, Architects as the local architect of record and Enea Garden Design developing the landscape, the building will include a duplex penthouse (with Poliform cabinetry in all residences), an aquatic center and full-service wellness and spa levels. There’s even a proposed rooftop helipad. Slated for completion in 2018, it will boast an exoskeleton whose sinuous curves will make it a work of art in its own right. 1000museum.com

ESPACIO

When did you open? We originally launched our brand in 2014, but our new display was unveiled during Art Basel in December 2015. On the horizon? We’re adding products by British designer Matthew Hilton. His furniture pieces draw inspiration from nature and photography. We love his stuff because he thinks like a sculptor, considering every view of a product equally, allowing for a sense of delight and surprise over the years as the user discovers new details and complexities. Describe the space. The showroom combines

natural materials such as solid wood and marble with upholstered furniture and colorful rugs and lighting. The idea behind the showroom was to create an aesthetically clean look while providing an injection of comfort and vibrancy. What makes Espacio different? We hold interviews with every designer we feature, as well as many manufacturers, and make them available on our website so that people can discover how the things they bring into their homes are being made, and we also host regular talks and gatherings at the showroom. espacio-miami.com

ON DISPLAY CANNONBALL

Every year, scores of collectors descend on Miami thanks to Art Basel and the satellite shows that follow. But organizations such as Cannonball have rendered the city an art mecca year-round for the artists themselves. The nonprofit provides an educational community where artists can really dive into their work as the name suggests. Here, artistic director Gean Moreno divulges on the philosophy behind Cannonball, its 2016 artists-in-residence and Miami’s burgeoning arts-and-culture scene. cannonballmiami.org

PEER PRESSURE “Cannonball is an artistcentric organization. We try to recognize artists’ needs and find ways to address them. The residency program is there to provide artists with time to think, research and work while meeting local and international peers, without the pressure to produce at the pace that the art market seems to increasingly demand from artists.” NEW CROP “We are truly excited about the 2016 artists-in-residence: Javier Castro recently moved here from Cuba, has a solid body of work behind him and is beginning a brand-new stage in his production; Monica McGivern has been photographing the Miami music scene for a long time,

and we’re hoping she will be able to organize her immense archive of images as a way to further develop her artistic practice; and Alexandra Kuechenberg comes from a strange and interesting intersection between the arts and sciences. We hope she’ll continue to develop her interest in brain-wave patterning and human perception.” WHAT LIES AHEAD “Miami still has a fairly young arts ecosystem; it is still at a developmental stage and I feel that Cannonball can help in structuring the larger arts ecology in a healthy way. Over the last few years, we have seen a marked increase in grassroots, bottom-up practices that I think signal a bright future.”

ON THE RISE Miami is in the throws of an architecture-and-design revolution, with new developments and neighborhoods popping up everywhere one turns—and there are no signs of it slowing down. Scheduled for completion in 2017, L’Atelier Miami Beach will be the first residential development for furnishings maven Holly Hunt; her soothing interiors palette of white marble, soft gray stone and deep-toned wood will run throughout, all the way up to the $25-million tri-level penthouse. Aventura ParkSquare, a wellness-minded mixed-use development that will encourage socializing and living well, will

feature warm, timeless residences designed by Steven Gurowitz of Interiors by Steven G. And Susan LaFleur, associate and director of hospitality and residential design at Stantec, is busy creating interiors for mixed-use residential towers like District 36 near Midtown, expected to be complete this fall. Fashion-forward like the Miami Design District and edgy like Wynwood, the aesthetic of District 36 centers on equally daring mixed-media works by Anna Sweet. The designers chime in below on their latest ventures. lateliermiamibeach.com; aventuraparksquare.com; stantec.com

AVENTURA PARKSQUARE

DISTRICT 36

“Luxury is time and space for creative and rare experiences that touch emotions and create memories. I love how the energy at L’Atelier evokes tranquility and relaxation.”

“Aventura ParkSquare is city living at its finest. So when designing, we thought bigcity—New York, Chicago, Los Angeles. And we chose products that are healthy and comfortable to use.”

“We had in mind young professionals who love living by the Design District but who also enjoy grabbing a drink and dinner in Wynwood and being surrounded by local art.”

GASTON ISOLDI, DIRECTOR OF MAISON&OBJET AMERICAS Last year’s first stateside iteration of the famous French furnishings and accessories fair Maison&Objet made major waves when it landed in Miami. But this year’s version is poised to make an even bigger splash thanks to the fair’s newest addition, Gaston Isoldi. Isoldi’s premiere show as director will take place May 10-13 and will feature over 300 of the world’s most upscale brands and exhibitors, in addition to a special presentation by M&O’s designer of the year, Rafael de Cárdenas. Though, the much-talked-about event is quickly helping to expand Miami’s reach on the design map, Isoldi, a proud transplant, insists the city is the perfect place for design-seekers all year-round, and we sat down with him to give us a guide for all the places currently making Miami great. maison-objet.com 9 a.m. Let’s start with breakfast and an espresso at Ella (at right, bottom), Michael Schwartz’s pop-up cafe inside the Palm Court in Miami’s Design District. It’s a great place to gather some morning inspiration, and you’re likely to run into a lot of our partners and exhibitors from Maison&Objet. 10 a.m. Take a walk around the area to tour the shops and showrooms, and to hear news from our exhibitors on what they might be bringing to the fair this year. Some of my favorites are Armani/Casa, Fendi Casa, Natuzzi, Ornare and Waterworks. 11:30 a.m. Head over to get the lay of the land at the Miami Beach Convention Center, where we will be hosting the second installment of Maison&Objet Americas. We expanded the fair into two main halls due to the positive responses of last year. 12 p.m. If you want to stay on the island, Cecconi’s (above) at the Soho Beach

House, with its Cuban-style tile and string lights, is a favorite. They have a fantastic black-truffle-and-goat-cheese pizza. But, to cover more ground, I suggest you jump into the car and head back to the mainland for lunch in Miami’s burgeoning new design center, Ironside, which is located in the Upper Eastside neighborhood. It’s possibly the most exciting place to visit in Miami right now. Tour the open-concept campus and its showrooms, from Enea Garden Design to apure, a lighting system store with product designed by Porsche Design Studio. And don’t forget espresso number two. 2 p.m. Let’s tour Miami’s most iconic sites, including Frank Gehry’s New World Center, Herzog & de Meuron’s Pérez Art Museum Miami and the historic former Bacardi headquarters and Jewel Box, now the YoungArts campus (at right, center). While we’re touring, maybe swing past a couple of high-design projects on-the-rise in Miami to see how they’re coming along, like One Thousand

Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects and Arquitectonica’s Hyde Midtown, SLS Brickell, SLS LUX Brickell, the Paraiso enclave and Brickell City Centre. 4 p.m. Brazilian designers are really doing gorgeous showrooms in Miami right now. Head further south to see this firsthand at Artefacto in Coral Gables; its showroom at the Village of Merrick Park is so spacious and inviting, and its new Jader Almeida (whose chair is shown at right, top) shop-in-shop in Aventura is a big deal for the Miami market. I love the warmth of Artefacto and all of their furnishings. I’ve been following the brand from their start in Miami. 6 p.m. If you’re feeling Parisian, stay in Coral Gables and have dinner at Palme d’Or at The Biltmore Hotel. It’s such a fine dining experience with a dynamic menu and French-inspired ambience. I definitely intend to take the Maison&Objet Paris team here to see how the French theme compares to their restaurants back home.

BLACK OUT

NICOLE HOLLIS, SAN FRANCISCO Trademark: I’m all about simplicity with an edge: black, texture, cut and form. Morning routine: Up at 5:30 a.m., I check online auctions, design blogs, The New York Times and email. Post bath and meditation, it’s family time with my husband and 4-year-old; no better way to start the day. Dream office: I surround myself with beautiful objects in my studio, but it’s constantly changing—the smallest thing can inspire. We have huge windows overlooking the San Francisco skyline, and the sunsets are spectacular. Desktop items: My tools of the trade (color pencils, scratch paper and drawings), a rusty horseshoe, brass door hardware and a rock from a trip to Hawaii. Personal stationery: Custom letterpress with original artwork by Marta Elise Johansen. Mood board: Torn pages from fashion and art magazines and auction catalogues. On trend: Eighties fashion is back and inspiring interiors. I’m hooked on neon, shredded and studded accents.

Desktop items: My MacBook Pro, Kayce Hughes artwork I picked up from Rivers Spencer in New Orleans, a Moleskine sketchbook where I keep my notes and my father’s Montblanc pen.

Never too many… Monogrammed linens. Can’t live without… My red lipstick. Guilty pleasure: Fabric. Sources of inspiration: Vintage out-of-print design books, estate sales and old classic movies—I can definitely credit Auntie Mame as being a push toward a life in design.

Trademark: My style is masculine balanced with feminine and old mixed with the new. I believe that these juxtapositions are what make a home complete. Morning routine: Spending a couple of early hours with my daughter is the perfect way to start the day. Dream office: Mine is just that; our new office feels so fresh with tons of natural light and shelves upon shelves full of materials and samples for easy access to inspiration.

Mood board: Clippings of new artists and collaborations, as well as personal photos from my travels (picturesque landscapes, striking outfits I see on the street). Never too many… Pairs of shoes. Can’t live without… Chicago pizza. Guilty pleasure: Chicago pizza. On trend: I’m loving rooms painted entirely in one color—walls, trims, window frames, all of it.

Displaying restraint… Kara Mann’s benches are cool and current yet also possess a timelessness to them that isn’t over-designed. The main lines of the piece… Are defined in solid black, providing a frame to emphasize the natural wood grain of the base; from a creative perspective I think it’s brilliant and beautiful. The attention to detail and beautiful finishing… Is an example of Baker’s trademark of uncompromising standards towards well-made furnishings. Luxury is a by-product of superior quality and sophisticated design. I always examine… Circulation, scale and the language spoken between pieces when creating areas conducive to conversation. Kara has done a wonderful job… Designing a versatile, clean, perfectly proportioned line, and I am excited to use her pieces in our clients’ spaces.

I am attracted to the bold… Example of Kate Spade’s ability to marry two of their most signature elements together: bows and polka-dots.

Fashion, design, art and architecture… Are all variations on a creative theme. Some of the best furnishing collections are born from fashion icons, often causing a tidal wave of symbiotic brand revival. I absolutely love the Hooker-Rowley collaboration for that exact reason—an unexpected brand pairing that stops you in your tracks. The Fleur de Glee bench is… Unmistakably Rowley in pattern yet shows off the refined upholstery elements for which Hooker is known. Add in the modern lines and jewelrylike metalwork detailing and you’re poised for perfection. As a fluent Francophile… I love the name and inherent playfulness associated with the bench. Whimsical upholstery meets modern metal—it’s the juxtaposition that makes us stop and ponder. Interiors should not exist on a single axis… But reflect the many moods and facets of personalities. Without creativity… Design becomes predictable and expected. Here, I’m so attracted to the hard, modern silhouette coupled with the floral, feminine pattern.

Every single thing… About the Morehead chair is for me. From its hefty, almost updated Parsons-style lines to its somewhat Postmodern personality and early 1980s appeal, it is as much a comfy spot to sit in as it is sculptural art. Silhouette is important… For the overall balance of a room and area of perspective. What’s interesting about these chairs is how strong and grounded their profiles are. Since they are so straight, they work beautifully with curved pieces, like say a Tulip table. Locally made forever pieces… Are what everyone is after these days. Hands down, these pieces are new and now, all while combining a classically architectural frame with a perhaps retro-style fabric choice that speaks to today’s lifestyle. The best way to describe my aesthetic… Is transitional with an edge, which fits to perfection with many of the pieces offered by Highland House. The lines are clean and draped in classicism, but the textiles are fit for modern-day tastes—the perfect mash-up of timeless and fresh.

A Cartier Love bracelet got a fur coat... Was our first impression of Lee Industries’ insightful take on a classic sling chair. We’re so attracted to the mix of...

Softness and warmth to a stark modern space or bring a maximalist room a sense of calm modernity. Where design really gets fun and memorable... Is when you start collecting valuable—not necessarily expensive—well-crafted treasures that have a history, a story and a sense of place. We love seeing the emergence of creative artisans in America and abroad. Luxury is a contract... Between maker and acquirer. The passion and talent of a great craftsman is married to the owner appreciating and understanding the beauty of an object that is made with a heart and soul.

• Fire features are being incorporated into the patio or poolside hardscape rather than being separated from the main space. • A focal point, aka “conversation space,” around the fire feature is a new, much-welcomed standard. • Spaces are being built to extend the outdoor living season through shading, heating and fabrics (draping to use space during rain). • Colors continue to trend to modern gray (dark and light), along with cream, with small pops of color. • Fixtures mimic indoor fixtures (outdoor furniture and décor resembles indoor furniture and fabrics). • Complete outdoor bathrooms are being added to eliminate the need to enter the primary living space.

Soft colors, minimalist designs. “The new neutral follows the trend of simplicity, with whites and grays appearing in cushions,” Lowsky says. High-end ﬁnishes. Outdoor finishes have historically sacrificed design for durability, but today’s options, including platinum and jasmine, achieve a luxurious, modern motif. Made-to-last materials. “With a natural resistance to corrosion and rust, aluminum offers strength and easy care,” Lowsky says. “It also offers a range of style options, including cast, wrought and extruded designs.” Warmth + ambience. Fire table designs in classic and contemporary styling remain a highly popular addition to today’s outdoor spaces, along with accessories to extend the enjoyment of gathering around the fire.

OUTSIDE THE LINES COLOR REENERGIZES THE HOME’S MOST-FREQUENTED ROOMS FOR STUNNING SPACES THAT SHUN TRADITION AND DARE TO SHAKE THINGS UP. WRITTEN BY BRIELLE M. FERREIRA

Typically, when whipping up a confectionary masterpiece, you don’t want to break the mold; it’s a vital part of keeping those baked goods looking their best. But that’s where following form in the kitchen should end: The best kitchen design is equal parts functional and unexpected, which is why incorporating color is becoming such an important element for a truly remarkable space. So, while crisp white cabinetry in both the kitchen and bathroom isn’t going anywhere soon, mixing in bold hues—whether it’s on the island and appliances in the kitchen or in the form of a statement-making wallpaper in the powder bath—is fast becoming the not-so-secret ingredient to cooking up spaces that will stand the test of time. Here, we celebrate the color-happy palettes and products that are taking the workhorse rooms of the home from bland to beautiful.

HAUTE DISH TAYLOR BORSARI

Designer Taylor Borsari channels Morocco in a Coronado, California, kitchen that dazzles with heavy doses of color, pattern and glammed-out gold. taylorborsari.com Share your design vision. The house was a historic remodel, and the kitchen was a blank space aside from the blue La Cornue oven. My first goal was to integrate the color of the range so it felt like part of an overall story rather than a random dash of color. I think many are nervous to jump into a bold range choice, but this is proof that it can be done without being too overwhelming.

Best ways to introduce pattern into the kitchen? I love patterned backsplashes! This is an area where you can really set the tone for a kitchen, and it’s an obvious area you can have a lot of fun with. Even tonal or monochromatic patterns can add interest. In this kitchen, we also added the carved island, which gave us a nice, ethnic twist to help balance the backsplash, as well as the very colorful range.

COM_LX6_TheLook_KitchenBath_186-194.indd 210

How can color revive and freshen up a kitchen? Color is a great addition to everyday life. White is classic and timeless, of course, but it is also a very safe option. This kitchen is a bit of a hybrid of pattern and color, and I think it is so much more interesting as a result. Plus, as more spaces are openplan these days, embracing a little more color in kitchens allows you to connect rooms more cohesively.

BEAUTY Bringing color into the kitchen doesn’t have to mean looking to the rainbow for inspiration: quiet black matte can be just as impactful and statement-making, as demonstrated by the latest addition to Brizo’s high-fashion faucet line. Featuring a hidden pull-down wand, the Solna faucet makes a big impression with its articulating arm and fashion-forward finish. brizo.com

It’s no surprise that open shelving continues to be wildly popular in today’s kitchen, but for lovers of color, this modern design device is even more effective. Stacking brightly colored bowls, glasses, mugs and ceramics can infuse happy hues into the most neutral of kitchens, making it the perfect solution for homeowners who are looking to play it a little safer but still want to incorporate an element of fun and whimsy into their rooms. This vignette from designer Emily Henderson shows that there are no rules when it comes to styling your shelves; just don’t be shy to share your favorite pieces, regardless of color scheme or theme. stylebyemilyhenderson.com

Sconces from Galerie des Lampes and an art piece, Jay Hodgins’ Straumi 8, add an air of modern elegance to the room. The chair is custom by Anne Hepfer, upholstered in fabric from Kravet and trim from Samuel & Sons.

This serene vanity space by Toronto designer Anne Hepfer is transformed with color. Benjamin Moore’s Coventry Gray on the cabinetry acts as both statement-maker and pretty neutral against the softer walls painted in Benjamin Moore’s Stonington Gray. “The cabinetry is tailored but feminine, with some round detailing to maintain traditional character but in a cleaner more current design,” explains Hepfer. Far from traditional, though, is what she sees as the next big thing in powerful palettes: “I have a feeling that gray is here to stay for a while, so we’re popping spaces with bold hits of color—fuchsia, canary yellow, teal—and, of course, black and white accents. I’m loving the play of contrast and unexpected combinations!” annehepfer.com

MADE TO ORDER Kitchens and bathrooms spent the first part of their lives inside the home hidden away, separated from the pretty living and family rooms where all the action was happening. Today, though, the kitchen and bath are front and center, with gorgeous new options that transform the rooms into gallery-like spacesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;with faucets that double as works of art, tiles that look like they belong in a museum, and lots of great new technology that ensures these spaces are as hardworking as they are good-looking.

MATERIAL MAGIC For this handsome Santa Monica, California, kitchen by architect May Sung, materials take center stage to great effect thanks to the wonderful grain and texture of the reclaimed wood on the island and perimeter cabinetry, which contrast powerfully with the limestone backsplash tiles from Walker Zanger. “We wanted to create an oasis that is masculine and bring in natural material, without looking like a lumberjack’s cabin,” says Sung. “All of the material had to be genuine and true to that vision.” gsubuda.com

Sure, the classic French press has its own rustic charm, but nothing says, “I’m serious about my coffee,” like a brew station that can deliver rich espresso, sweet lattes and foamtopped cappuccinos at the touch of a button. Miele’s CM6310 Countertop Coffee System does just that and then some; with four user profiles to account for different tastes and an integrated cup warmer, it’s just like having your own barista at home— misspelled name on a paper cup not included. mieleusa.com

SPLASH ZONE

A backsplash represents the founding principles of a kitchen: It should be both beautiful and functional. But, in the case of the New Ravenna tile backsplash in this kitchen by Los Angeles-based designer Kishani Perera, it goes one further: being totally statement-making. Luckily, the vast expanses of white on the cabinetry make it, and the warm, chevron-patterned wood flooring that accompanies it, visually stimulating but not overwhelming. kishaniperera.com

Touches of gold and brass are slowly taking the place of chrome and polished nickel in contemporary bathrooms, thanks to their easy warmth and timeless aesthetic. In this space by designer Casey Keasler, from the creative Portland studio of Casework, brass faucets from Kohler join mirrors—replicas of 1930s French wall consoles from Restoration Hardware—in creating a can’t-look-away sink area. The golden hues are the perfect complement to the cabinetry’s bold teal color. “The brass helped create a certain richness,” says Keasler. “I like a clean, quiet space where everything is done for a reason and not because of a trend.” casework.it

AS K T HE EXPE RT Describe the philosophy behind your firm. BELT believes every dream is possible, so when one shares their dreams and desires, and we share our talent, experience and passion, we start walking together toward the same horizon, creating beautiful, breathtaking masterpieces. What is inspiring you now? Art is that in which the hand, head and heart of man coexist. It gives life to dreams and ideas that are without limits. This mind-set is inspiring us now. What are you working on next? We are working on developing limited-edition collections of some of our pieces, including light fixtures, architectural surfaces and furniture. It's an interesting project focused on uniqueness, craftsmanship and sustainability.

BELT Founded in Colombia in 1985 by architects and fine artists Louis Beltran and Angela Garcia, BELT is a designer and manufacturer of fine architectural metal artwork, including unique one-of-a-kind railings, gates, lights, balconies, doors, wine cellars, canopies and other specialty items. Led today by founders Louis, Angela, Valentina Beltran and Federico Beltran, BELT has upheld its family-owned tradition and the dedication it inspires. Since the beginning, they have been committed to exceeding expectations, working side by side with each homeowner, architect, builder and interior designer to fully interpret the client’s dreams into custom metal artwork. “Our products are handmade in Colombia by an outstanding team of artists and artisans that use old-world techniques with great artistic value and craftsmanship that creates works of superb quality,” Louis says. The company’s most recent venture includes a collection of pieces that thoroughly meets its definition of successful design, which hinges on the idea that beauty alone is not enough. “Good design is being able to create meaningful pieces that function perfectly together by complementing the space for which they are intended. BELT thinks holistically about its performance, the users and the planet,” Valentina says. Using old-world techniques, such as forging, chiseling and hammering, and special finishes including oil, beeswax and hand-applied patinas, BELT’s craftsmen enhance the aesthetic of every piece. “We’re one of the largest operations in the world, but all of our work is boutique and custom. We know we can create luxury metal artwork at an attractive price without sacrificing uniqueness or quality. BELT has been able to maintain this level of quality because of our refined systems and passion for bringing dreams to life,” Federico says.

AS K T HE EXPE RT What is inspiring you now? People inspire me. Miami is a cultural melting pot, and each person has a different design perspective and taste. It’s inspiring hear what each person likes and then to try to satisfy their unique needs. What are your favorite styles to work on and why? I prefer eclectic styles, because it can be a wild or very delicate mix of different elements from diverse styles and time periods that when integrated together, create an authentic and peculiar atmosphere. What is your creative process? I love to develop an idea from scratch and be involved not just conceptually but in every aspect of production, from choosing materials and traveling to factories to exchanging ideas with other artists and designers.

GIOCASA Conceived out of a desire to expand accessibility of luxury Italian furnishings to new markets, and to challenge existing design concepts and aesthetics, Giorgio Ferrara founded Giocasa, a furnishings company that aims to deliver an authentic Italian experience in luxury furniture and closets. With 15 years of previous success at the helm of the renowned Ferrara Group, the highly successful furnishings brand he co-founded with his brother, Ferrara took up residence in Milan to finesse and refine his design concepts for Giocasa, which he then brought home to Miami. Giocasa is built on the cornerstones of quality, design, exclusivity, simplicity and authenticity. “Our goal is to maintain affordable prices but still use the highest quality materials, so that ultimately anyone could own at least one of our pieces in their collection,” Ferrara says. “We pride ourselves on offering a product carefully designed to satisfy all functionality and safety standards for spaces with both residential and hospitality purposes. We facilitate upgrades and custom designs on any of the products in our collection.” While Ferrara is fueled by his own passions for art and design, it is the client who provides him with the ultimate inspiration. “The client is the most important part of the creative process. Their satisfaction is my most important goal,” he says. Ferrara also seeks to exceed client expectations by ensuring each client feels thoroughly invested in the design process for a truly bespoke experience. “Every client is able to make the experience as personally rewarding as they want it to be because they can customize every detail of a product,” he says. “This creates a feeling of belonging and identity with the product that goes beyond their primary expectations.”

AS K T HE EXPE RT What is your creative process? What is your favorite part of it? We believe a home tells a story. We start with a deep understanding of the person that will live in the home and their needs, wishes, tastes and dreams.

MORADA HAUTE FURNITURE BOUTIQUE

Describe the philosophy behind your firm. We believe in transforming the homes of our clients into their personalized MORADA. Not only can we customize within our collection, but we can create a new piece inspired by the client or based on their ideas. How do you define luxury? Luxury is, to us, the enjoyment of the best in life: the experience of beauty, knowledge and humanity at their deepest and most inspiring. It could be a sunset, song or moment of peace and satisfaction in the place you feel at home—your personal MORADA.

For Holger Odenstein and Fernan Hernandez of MORADA-Haute Furniture Boutique, life is an endless source of inspiration. The president and chief creative of the Miami-based couture furnishings company collect ideas for their designs from the journey of life, transforming each concept into a unique furniture piece that is an expression of the moments, cultures, emotions and treasures that make up human existence. “At the beginning of MORADA (which is Spanish for dwelling), we went on a trip around the world, from Southeast Asia to Europe to North and South America, from the cities to the jungles, the modern places to the ancient places and the metropolis to the village,” Hernandez says. “We lived with the local people, made friends, tried unexpected foods, experienced new scents and listened to unfamiliar sounds. Our senses were constantly stimulated and so were our minds—to sketch and create unique MORADA furniture pieces for our collection.” MORADA’s approach combines luxurious designs, sumptuous materials and natural elements, tailoring the style and design to meet the wants and needs of each customer. Thus, Odenstein says, “each project is a new and exciting challenge, as individual and multifaceted as the person for which it is meant.” Working with clients ranging from industry professionals to homeowners, MORADA tailors its furniture and designs to the personalities of its clients. “We encourage clients to always bring their personalities into the design process,” he says. “The journey of compiling a home can be as exciting as the final result.” MORADA-Haute Furniture Boutique manufactures with the best artificers in the world. Its upholstery is exclusively produced in Italy, its silk rugs are hand-knotted in India and Nepal and its accessories are created by artisans in Southeast Asia, South America and Europe.

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS

AS K T HE EXPE RT What is inspiring you now? Having made the transition into also designing interiors has had a reinvigorating effect on our entire practice, mainly because of the expanded palette of materials and possibilities.

David Font, RLA Principal and Owner 7551 Wiles Road, Suite 105B Coral Springs, Florida 954.283.8839 info@davidfontdesign.com davidfontdesign.com

What are your favorite styles to work on and why? We design in many styles; however, our work is strongly influenced by Asian tropical styles for the outdoors and a sort of looser version of modernism with organic touches for interiors. What are you working on next? We have recently completed projects in Latin America and the Caribbean, and we are currently working on expanding our horizons with projects in Asia and the Middle East.

DAVID FONT DESIGN Guided by a passion for design and the outdoors, landscape architect David Font first pursued studies in landscape architecture at the University of Florida before launching his eponymous design firm, David Font Design, in 2001. Font’s unique design aesthetic, as well as his own philosophy of “creating bliss” regardless of whether the setting is residential, commercial or recreational, quickly elevated David Font Design to one of the most highly recognized landscape architecture firms in South Florida. While the company initially specialized in creating unique outdoor environments, Font’s talents were not limited to only outdoor designs. His interior design skills have received many accolades, including recognition in 2012 as the winner of the premiere episode of HGTV’s “The White Room Challenge.” It was only a year later when he was named America’s Top Renovation expert in the series “Brother Vs. Brother.” This exposure led to the award-winning firm’s evolution as a full-service design firm offering both landscape architecture and interior design. Font places great value in client relationships, crediting them as an invaluable part of the design process. “I strive to create friendships with my clients. Achieving a personal appreciation for each other benefits the design process tremendously,” he says. Even with 15 years of success as the owner of David Font Design and international recognition of his design talents to his credit, Font still defines success in his ability to continually raise the bar. “A successful project is one in which we exceed expectations—by far. If we give a client exactly what they had in mind, we fail,” he says. “We strive to implement design solutions that fulfill the intended objectives in unexpected, innovative ways.”

What are your favorite styles to work on and why? Together with classic style we love to work with contemporary and inspirational designs in which new elements, such as an unusual shape or an innovative combination, are introduced. How would you describe your clientele? Our customer is any demanding, creative, intelligent, erudite lover of beautiful things. Our products could be in the home of a teacher or a CEO or in a building or hotel, such as the Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort, where our chandeliers are featured. Is your work easily recognizable? Why or why not? Yes. The process is complex and interdisciplinary, involving many different specializations and experts in respective fields. Every piece is therefore touched by a number of skilled hands, strengthening its authenticity and originality.

BERKANA USA Originally from the Czech Republic, Svetlana Yakzhina first decided to bring Berkana, her lighting company of 16 years, to the United States because of the potential she saw in the South Florida market. “Our company is growing and developing with every season by expanding our client network and maintaining relationships with clients,” Yakzhina says. “The biggest success of Berkana USA was becoming an official certified distributor of several well known and quality Czech crystal makers in America, including Preciosa. This gave us the opportunity to bring a variety of Czech crystal merchandise to America for the first time in history.” Through the Berkana showroom in Miami, Yakzhina and her team assist clients in finding the perfect fixture for every environment and need. Berkana’s lighting consultants discuss each customer’s vision in detail to ensure they fully understand all aspects of the design. “Once the idea takes form and the sketches start coming to life, we turn to you for feedback on everything from the shape of the light and the technologies in use to the lighting fixture as a whole,” Yakzhina says. “At this stage, we also optimize the light intensity, eliminate hot spots and measure glass quality for the best possible results. If you want to change anything, we will create a new light until we get it exactly the way you desire.” Given Berkana’s vast array of merchandise, from crystal beads and chandelier trimmings to crystal glassware, it typically has a large number and variety of clients, making it uniquely suited to achieving the task presented by any individual. “We always try to propose the most ideal solution for any lighting or décor fixture and tailor to the design demands of the client,” Yakzhina says. “The most important goal of every project is customer satisfaction.” Berkana USA is happy to announce the opening of its showroom in North Miami Beach.

Raised under the auspices of a grandfather who bought, renovated and sold real estate, Analia Kipnis knew from a young age that she wanted to be involved in interior design. “I spent weekends with my grandfather, helping with each project, from demolition to finish,” she says. “I remember loving those days, and now it is my passion!” Today, Kipnis is the principal designer at her namesake firm, AK Interior Designs, and spends her days identifying client needs, providing contemporary design solutions and implementing them in collaboration with her team, ultimately delivering a high-quality project on time. “Our design philosophy is to create environments that are casually elegant and functional at once,” Kipnis says. “If it doesn’t please the senses and allow for seamless living, it won’t be enjoyed.”

How do you stay abreast of new trends and styles? I travel, read travel and design magazines, walk projects, explore websites and talk to others. This approach provides continuous refinement of my unique style. How do you think your clients would characterize you? I think they would say I am a perfectionist who adheres to my design philosophy, yet captures their spirit. Many clients don’t have a particular style or have difficulty articulating it. I am able to channel their feelings through my designs. Who or what inspires you most? My grandfather, father and husband all worked in the trade in one aspect or another. They have each influenced me. What do you like most about your job? Two things: the ability to create and the satisfaction it brings my clients.

What is your most prized possession? Possessions are things that come and go. I don’t allow myself to form an emotional attachment to my possessions. I cherish relationships and good memories that will last a lifetime or even longer. What are your favorite hobbies? There is nothing better than traveling with loved ones to enrich the experience of life.

ith each turn in this Venetian Islands home in Miami Beach, views of tropical greenery, ocean and blue sky change as they would with the twist of a kaleidoscope. Here, the lens comes in the form of oversize windows and sliders and ribbons of glass that frame the beautiful natural setting. Credit for the home goes to designer Luciana Fragali and builder Luis Bosch. Their assignment to create a comfortable home for a Brazilian couple and their three young sons was a breeze, so to speak, thanks to a lot of group think that included the homeowners. In just one

year, the original 1950s home that once stood here was gone, with only a small portion of the structure left, and that, too, was modified. Bosch came on board first, and soon afterward the couple began their search for a designer. The owners were introduced to Fragali through friends, and from there the design took off. “There are amazing beach homes in Brazil, and they wanted to have a home here that would recall that—a house that would be both contemporary and cozy and not pretentious,” Fragali says. It needed, she adds, to be a place their kids could play with their friends without worry, yet be just as appropriate for entertaining. LUXESOURCE.COM / 255

Ironically, Bosch had remodeled this very home for the previous owners. “I do a lot of work in Miami Beach and have a lot of signs on my projects. The couple saw one of them, went online and called me. They were surprised to know I had worked on this home before,” he explains. At first, the owners only wanted to remodel the bathrooms and incorporate some millwork. “Then they got more and more excited about the home and just decided to do more and more,” Bosch says. “We ended up demolishing 50 percent of the home, and for the remaining 50 percent we removed the tie beams, left the walls and then raised them so we could install taller sliding glass doors to take in the views.” Although the remodel was dramatic, it was carefully thought-out. “The owners decided, before anything was done, to move into the house for a month and identify their needs,” Fragali says. “From there, they pinpointed

what they liked and what changes they wanted to make.” Various floor plans came from Bosch and Fragali, who also has a background in architecture. After several meetings with the clients, all worked together to lay out the final plan, with Tony Leon of 3Design serving as architect of record. From the start, the owners, particularly the wife, were part of the team. “She went to the site every day and purchased the specified materials,” Fragali says. “This was the smoothest project I’ve worked on. Whenever there was an issue, we sat down together and solved it.” New rooms include the maid’s quarters, a playroom and a cabana bath on the lower level, a family room, five bedrooms, a powder room and six bathrooms; plus, the swimming pool was transformed into an infinity pool with multihued translucent blue tiles now carpeting the bottom and sides. For furnishings, Fragali focused on durable materials in a neutral color palette. She chose a mocha LUXESOURCE.COM / 261

LX_MIA7_Rodrigo_254-267.indd 261

1/25/16 2:59 PM

cream limestone flooring with oversize tiles for many of the first-floor rooms, white oak for the bedroom floors and porcelain tiles for the bathrooms. The idea was to create cozy spaces via furnishing layouts and introduce color and patterns in pillows, art and decorative accessories. Fragali also custom-designed built-ins including the dining room buffet, family room television wall and a dramatic stone wall niche behind the family room sofa. “There are hidden LEDs on top of the niche,” she says. “So at night, when the lights are on, it washes over the stone and illuminates it.” In the kitchen, sleek new cabinetry gives off an ultracontemporary vibe; to complement and add visual interest, Fragali opted for a marble backsplash and quartz countertops. Texture comes in the form of wallcoverings in the master bedroom and bathrooms. During construction, Fragali and the team found some newspapers from the 1950s with advertisements from the old Burdines department

store, a former staple of Florida founded in the 1800s. With input from the owners, Fragali took these reminders of Miami’s history, framed them and hung them in the dramatic glass-walled powder room. Throughout, light-painted walls allow the colors from outside to remain the focus. With the expansion of the house and in consideration of the couple’s desire to entertain, Fragali created new spaces for lounging outside, as well. Just as she had done inside, seating clusters define areas and new views. And with all the new construction, an opportunity was presented to Fragali and Bosch to redesign and replant the 15,000-square-foot lot with the help of Pacific Beach’s Nick Dietel and the homeowners. New plantings, including many clusia hedges and palm trees, came to color and sequin the landscape. In the end, this family home became a light-filled, easy-to-live-in space that lives up to those dreamy kaleidoscopic views.

The homeowners, who often entertain, looked to designer Luciana Fragali to create welcoming, non-fussy spaces inside and outdoors. Fragali’s choice of an understated contemporary banquette, built by Kauri Group, fits the design concept perfectly.

Miami sculptor Valeria Yamamoto (shown opposite, top) sometimes sketches out her concepts before creating a model—Under Blue (shown right) is an example. When she moves to the larger sculpture at its true scale, she follows the material and intuitively alters her lines as she goes.

ong before she knew she wanted to be a sculptor, Valeria Yamamoto had an innate desire to take raw material and manipulate it into something captivating and new. “When I was 3 years old I would spend hours in the bathroom making flowers and boats with the remains of the hand soap,” recalls the Argentine-born artist with Japanese roots. Now, she spends countless hours creating large scale sculptures at the Bakehouse Art Complex in Wynwood, where she has become an artist-in-residence. Yamamoto’s path of creativity first led her to a brief stint working in graphic design. But she soon followed her passion to the United States to study art at Florida International University, and it was there, under the influential eye of her mentor, professor R.F. Buckley, that she began to discover her true artistic voice. “I loved ceramics and the organic forms you could make, but there are limitations to the materials and the scale,” Yamamoto says. So she took the best elements of that medium and shifted them to sculpture. “My work has some resemblance to the feeling of a ceramic—the fullness of the forms and the warmth of it,” says the artist. “Even though the pieces are made of cement or marble, which are hard and cold, they seem soft and inviting to the touch.” And they tower, too, sometimes reaching 8 feet tall—a surprising juxtaposition to her petite 5-foot-1-inch frame. Finding inspiration from the natural world—the stillness and purity of the Patagonia landscape, where she lived for four years, for example—the artist integrates her reactions and emotions into her work, as well as her life experiences. Whether it’s her undulating Rain, Seawhisper and Converge sculptures installed at Intracoastal Park in Sunny Isles Beach, or her most recent project with landscape architecture firm Cadence—populating Mockingbird Trail, an urban art route in Fort Lauderdale, with several pieces that tell a tale of a mythical creature—all of Yamamoto’s creations share a similar intent. “With people being crazy busy and rushing around, I hope my work makes someone stop for a moment of peace—to calm down and connect back to the world,” she says. “If it does, then that’s enough for me.”

“EVEN THOUGH MY PIECES ARE MADE OF CEMENT OR MARBLE, THEY SEEM SOFT AND INVITING TO THE TOUCH.”

Yamamoto often works with stone and cement, like the Carrara marble model she created (shown left) for her larger piece, Converge, or the carved Thassos marble installation on the previous pages. (The full-scale Converge can be seen at Intracoastal Park in Sunny Isles Beach.) But she has also begun fabricating in steel, seen in the feather in progress above.

Designer and homeowner Robert Rionda used a 20th-century French settee from Jerry Pair to create a sitting room feel in his dining area; Omni Upholstery re-covered it in Holly Huntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Great Plains gray velvet. Also gathered at the Knoll table are two Louis XVI chairs, circa 1785, that were re-dressed in a striped HermĂ¨s fabric, and an ornate French neo-Renaissance chair, also from Jerry Pair. The charcoal-andpigment painting at left, by Ahmed Gomez, was acquired through 108 Gallery; next to it hangs an architectural piece by Emilio Sanchez.

The living area features BDDW’s Lake credenza, topped with a rare vintage AV Mazzega blue glass table lamp from Van den Akker Antiques in New York; the credenza is flanked by antique Georgian chairs reupholstered with striped Fortuny fabric. The serigraph of Marilyn Monroe is by Yvaral, the large painting in the center is by Nunzio Paci, and to the right is an oil by Alfredo Pérez.

esigner Robert Rionda’s apartment in Miami Beach represented both a homecoming and an opportunity to experiment. Able to embrace whims and passions without the usual constraint of client deadlines, Rionda has created over time an open-plan loft teeming with a mix of vintage midcentury, contemporary and antique furniture in a home filled wall to wall with his extensive art collection. “When I design for myself, I am open to different styles and directions as the project progresses,” Rionda says. “I made this fun and gave myself a break and tried different things.” His original concept, a kind of beachy look, isn’t at all what he ended up doing. “If pieces looked great, I kept them. If not, I switched them,” Rionda says. “I had no expectations about how things were going to work. I wanted a layered home, and sometimes that takes time: putting pieces together and finding others down the road to make it more interesting. It’s ongoing and it never ends, and I love that.” Rionda was born in Connecticut to Cuban-immigrant parents and moved to Miami with them at a young age. He soon went off to experience adventures in school and career around the country, eventually settling in New York practicing law. But interior design called to him, and he

began taking on projects in New York while commuting to Miami to help his late mother, who was also a designer, with hers. Over time, his client base developed even further in Miami and Latin America, and he began to miss the warm environs and vibrant culture of South Florida—so purchasing a residence here was a natural next step. Rionda remembered that while visiting family several years prior, he had seen a building by acclaimed architect Chad Oppenheim called Montclair Lofts that, at the time, was under construction near the beach: a hybrid of an old original Art Deco structure wrapped on three sides with a taller U-shaped new building. “It seemed very different, so when I started to think about dividing my time with South Beach, this was the first place I looked,” he recalls. And the location was as eye-catching as the architecture. “Coming from New York, I wanted to be near the beach but also able to walk out of my door and not get in my car to go out to eat,” he adds. As soon as Rionda walks back through the door, though, he is greeted by an art gallery feel. The designer is a regular visitor to the annual Art Basel Miami Beach art fair, and scarcely a square foot of wall space in the entire loft is without paintings, drawings and photographs with an emphasis on Cuban and Latin American artists.

renovate and help make the loft his own, Rionda even added a half-wall at the entrance to hide a view of the kitchen and create more display space. He then painted all the walls a pristine white and bleached the heretofore-dark-stained oak floors (rather than painting them, to leave their grain visible). “In both Miami and New York, I don’t have any walls left, but I’ll keep rearranging and filling them,” he says. “I have never sold a piece of art I’ve collected. It’s just about loving something.” Entering the loft via the dining area, Rionda enjoys the eclectic mix that is evident at once. Here, a gathering of piercingly blue photos of jellyfish by Brazilian artist Renato Freitas looks down at a classic midcentury Saarinen dining table paired with Louis XVI chairs and a 1920s banquette. They all sit beneath 1940s French factory lights that Rionda acquired through Bourgeois Bohème in Los Angeles. Just a few feet away is the living area, anchored by a classic B&B Italia sofa that Rionda uses with both modern and traditional projects. It’s joined by a winged chair that was inspired by a midcentury design, two goatskin coffee tables, and antique clawfoot Georgian chairs that belonged to his mother (updated with new striped upholstery). Over the sofa is a Sergio Payares painting so large that it had to

be removed from its frame, rolled up and remounted in the loft. “A piece this large is a commitment,” he says, “but there are so many colors in it and interpretations.” Rionda’s bedroom is completely open to the rest of the loft, but the designer created a sense of place with a grass-cloth accent wall in gray (the only non-white surface aside from the bathroom) and a four-poster bed. The space is a gallery unto itself, with works by Yosvany Teijeiro, Palma Blank-Rosenblum, Sonia Delaunay and Humberto Vento. As a nod to the entertaining he enjoys, at the foot of the bed is a Moroccan settee dating to the 1800s and re-covered in turquoise Fortuny fabric. The adjacent office almost feels like a furniture gallery, with a handsome Lucite desk and a stainless-steel Philippe Starck chair that was originally designed for the Chinese restaurant Kong in Paris. When Rionda has guests over, every corner of the loft is open to them. “I have had large parties here, with 100 or even 150 people. It doesn’t feel like people are wandering into your bedroom. It’s just one open space,” he says. “I enjoy designing for more quaint or partitioned rooms, but here I like to look around and appreciate all at once the finds I’ve collected and curated over time.”

Alfredo Custom Furniture updated the kitchen with gray cabinetry and a refinished cabinet from Rionda’s childhood home for the island, which is topped with travertine from Miami Stone District. Tiles from Innovative Surfaces give the backsplash eyecatching patterning. Vintage ceramics are by Edmund Weyhe, and the Bosch refrigerator is from Ferguson.

A Louis XV-style chair by John Hutton and Kevin Cherry’s stool from Niba Home, wearing J. Robert Scott leather, lend additional seating.

The faucet and sink are also by Waterworks, as are the tub and shower fixtures. Right: The designer gave his bedroom definition with a fourpost Christian Liaigre bed, flanked by Jiun Ho’s Kambuja lamps for Boyd Lighting, from Jerry Pair, atop vintage James Mont nightstands from Cain Modern in West Hollywood, California.

FANTASTIC TAKING CUES FROM HIS BACKGROUND IN ARCHITECTURE, A MIAMI CREATIVE FINDS HIS TRUE CALLING DESIGNING SCULPTURAL LIGHTING.

Designer Raymond Barberousse (shown opposite, right, in his Miami home) crafts modern, sculptural light fixtures like Datura Triplex, hanging above him. Studio PGRB’s repertoire includes Elemental No. 3 (right), inspired by molecular geometry, and the double-shaded Hummingbird table lamp (opposite, bottom left). Shown on the previous spread is Hexad.

“I ENJOY TRANSLATING A TWO-DIMENSIONAL PLATFORM INTO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL AND GRAND.”

fter a quick 15-second commute through a breezeway that connects his Miami home and studio, lighting designer Raymond Barberousse taps on his SoundCloud app, igniting deep house music, and he is ready to work. He spends his days turning brass and steel into modern-glam pendants, lamps and sconces that are precise and deliberate in form—but his path to enlightenment began a bit more haphazardly when Barberousse and his wife, Priti Gandhi, purchased a four flat in Chicago and personally renovated one of the units for themselves. “I made our dining room table from reclaimed wood and glass, and the bathroom counter sink from leftover white-oak floorboards,” says Barberousse, who previously spent almost two decades working in the field of architecture. In the process of toying with his own ideas for the lighting, Barberousse discovered his passion and a new business, crediting Gandhi for her support and for his first sale, as well. “We were in a vintage shop and Priti asked the owner to take a look at my designs,” he says. “I hadn’t even been thinking retail at the time.” The proprietor gave the thumbs-up to the line and before they knew it, Barberousse recalls, “this was a real thing.” Today, the duo have established Studio PGRB and work side by side surrounded by an orchard of fruit trees planted by Barberousse’s father.

Gandhi handles the accounting as Barberousse creates, and they can still keep an eye on their toddlers. Their line is handcrafted, and soon they’ll add an industrial designer to their team, allowing for even more authentic and elaborate fabrication. No matter the task—a hotel in Taiwan, a restaurant in London, or residences throughout the United States and abroad—for Barberousse, the process starts with a concept, then a sketch, and then a mock-up fixture where all the kinks become perfected. Museums are a favorite source for inspiration; in fact, his dream is to have his designs be thought of as art and sold at a museum shop. “I look at colors and shapes, then decompose them into an idea,” he says. “I enjoy thinking about how to take a two-dimensional platform into three dimensions that will translate into something beautiful and grand.” The inspiration for the latest Arrow chandelier, for example, was birthed around a photography exhibit Barberousse had seen of a man holding a sabre. And while museums are a constant muse, Barberousse continuously registers ideas fueled by something as simple as children’s toys or scaffolding seen on a construction site. “I want to work on light fixtures all the time,” he says. “It doesn’t feel like a job and I have to force myself to stop. Building something new is an exciting process. I crave going into the studio.”

A MIAMI HOME GETS A NEW LEASE ON LIFE WITH CHICLY TRADITIONAL INTERIORS, A TOUCH OF THE HAMPTONS, AND A RETURN VISIT FROM FAMILIAR FACES. WRITTEN BY TERRI SAPIENZA PHOTOGRAPHY BY MARK ROSKAMS

1/22/16 3:49 PM

A grand two-story entry foyer with a sofa covered in Quadrille’s light blue linen greets the owners and guests. Sea-inspired artwork by Kito Mbiango beckons them farther into the home. The 19th-century rug is from Art of the Knot, and the lantern is by Charles Edwards. The sweeping walnut staircase was existing, but Out of The Woods replaced the stair treads; the custom-patterned limestone flooring is by Waterworks.

esigners Jenny R. Peters and Rachel Mbiango stand behind their philosophy: A house should look comfortable and elegant and be easy to maintain. It should also be timeless and not overdone. A crowning example of their refined design aesthetic can be found in the Pinecrest home belonging to Jan Risi Field and her husband, Jim Field. Jan contacted the designers after touring the open house of Peters’ personal home and falling in love with the décor. Initially, Jan wanted assistance refreshing one room in her house, but the project turned into a three-year gut renovation. “She went from ‘I want to redo the kitchen,’ to ‘I want to redo everything,’ ” Peters says. Built in 1988, the house had an exterior that leaned toward French country, with an interior that featured Colonial-style finishes and fixtures, French terra-cotta floors, Santa Fe-inspired

stonework, and natural cedar-wood ceilings. While Jan loved the location and the bones of her home, she was looking for interiors that were lighter and brighter with a cohesive Hamptons-style look inside and out. “She wanted color as well as sophistication,” says Mbiango. “They entertain a lot and they have a big family, so we wanted to create comfortable spaces for them. It’s traditional at heart with a little freshness. It’s Palm Beach with an edge right here in Miami.” Peters and Mbiango “were very attentive to keeping it a family home,” adds Jan. “Did they push me out of my comfort zone? Every day. But they took my house to a level I never would have imagined.” To help with the extensive remodel, Jan also called on architect Suzanne Martinson, who had originally designed the house over 25 years ago. “The existing style lent itself

to additions that looked logical and didn’t overpower the site,” says Martinson (noting Mark A. Greenberg, who built the original home under Greenberg Construction Corporation and has since retired to Colorado, where he consults on construction projects under GreenbergCM). This time around, with the help of project associate Rob Cebellos, architectural changes included an extension on the west side with two bedrooms and baths, the creation of a sun room, converting the attic space above the existing garage into a playroom— adding a bathroom, dormers and an internal stair—and extending the east side of the house. “We found the same make of brick used on the original house to help the additions blend in,” says Gary Legrand Haskin, who served as the builder for the home’s current incarnation along with superintendent Mark Fischer. “Everything looks like it’s always been there.” Peters and Mbiango began transforming the interiors by painting most of the walls and woodwork a crisp white and laying Jerusalem limestone on the floor; dark walnut

flooring was chosen for the living room and main staircase. “We did a mix of wood and warm stone that is easy to maintain and looks fresh with all the white surfaces,” says Peters. The majestic walnut staircase commands attention in the entry foyer and is an apt introduction to the casual luxury found farther inside. The dark wood is a foil for the walls of bright white paneling and Venetian plaster. “The textures of the paneling and the plaster give the interiors a subtle richness,” says Mbiango. After establishing a neutral foundation, the designers layered each space with Jan’s requested palette of “blue with a touch of blue.” They incorporated different shades of the color in nearly every room while mixing patterns and textures and other hues, such as yellow, chartreuse and brown, to keep the home cohesive while allowing each room its own distinct personality. Strong geometric-patterned fabrics were chosen over florals and damasks to break up the classical elements; antique Persian rugs add color and softness to the

Designers Jenny R. Peters and Rachel Mbiango took a detour from the bright whites found throughout the house, designing floor-to-ceiling walnut paneling in the bar and billiards room for the husband; the blue felt on the pool table and custom lampshades tie in hues from adjacent spaces. The Charles Edwards light fixture and Dessin Fournir barstools from David Sutherland add decorative flair.

Luxurious yet simple Quadrille draperies don’t distract from the view.

stone floors and anchor the mix of traditional, midcentury and found furnishings throughout. A crystal chandelier, paneled wainscoting and custom, hand-painted wallpaper in a soft teal set the tone in the stately dining room, where chairs upholstered in chocolate leather mingle with a regal 19th-century English dining table from the owners’ collection. The designers also devised a billiards room with a bar and wine cellar clad completely in walnut paneling. “We wanted to create a space in the color tones that Jim wanted but that would still fit with the design of the rest of the house,” says Peters. A second-floor sitting room was designed for Jan; decked out in her beloved blue hues, the room features walls of windows overlooking the backyard garden, pool and pergola covered in blooming bougainvillea. “It’s such as special spot,” says Jan. “It feels like an old-fashioned Florida room.” Like Martinson, landscape architect Susan Hall was another fitting partnership, as Hall had designed the landscape for the original owners and had already completed a renovation for the Fields, as well. Her inspiration this time was classic and traditional, and she wanted to create a feeling of being in the Hamptons to complement the architecture. “We used clipped hedges, espalier and manicured groundcovers,” Hall says. “Aside from the bougainvillea adorning the arbor near the pool, the landscape was to be a combination of green foliage and white flowering plants.” That arbor is an element that Martinson had designed previously, along with the pool, and Hall says it has only gotten better with age. Also added to the property over the years was a putting green, since the owner and his son are avid golfers. “When the property was expanded, we recommended building a new putting green farther back on the site and raising it slightly,” Hall recalls. “This allowed us to open up the immediate backyard of the home into a beautiful lawn area that was much more functional for entertaining and day-to-day activity.” Today, says Mbiango, the entire home not only echoes the refreshed classicism of the exterior but also reflects the homeowners’ personalities: elegant and timeless. “My home is so comfortable and luxurious, and it suits our lifestyle,” says Jan. “For the first time, I feel like the house is the way it was always meant to be.”

DESIGNER SHOW HOUSE This past November, Luxe Interiors + Design, the City of Beverly Hills and Friends of Greystone gathered to celebrate the VIP Preview of the Maison de Luxe designer show house at the historic Doheny Greystone estate in Beverly Hills, California. Over 500 VIP guests perused the reimagined rooms of this iconic estate while in sheer awe of its creativity, beauty and historic architecture. The Entertainologist, Lulu Powers, transformed the courtyard area into a decadent party atmosphere with dramatic lighting and luxurious furniture, exclusively provided by Frontgate. Guests enjoyed cocktails and assorted wines by Fantesca Estate & Winery indulged in delicious hors d’oeuvres. The evening was enhanced by a special award dedication to Luxe Editor in Chief Pamela Jaccarino by the mayor of Beverly Hills, Julian A. Gold, M.D., for her commitment to the restoration of the Doheny Greystone estate. World-class pianist Alexander Borghese provided entertainment throughout the evening by tickling the ivories of Steinway & Sons’ Special Collection Red Pops piano, which was front row center in the estate’s grand hall. Luxe extends its gratitude to the participating designers, sponsors, vendors and showrooms for their generous support of this project.
