EDITOR’S LETTER

Pamela Jaccarino, Editor in Chief @pamelajaccarino
PORTRAIT: JOSHUA MCHUGH.
f the many experiences that shaped me when I was a young girl, becoming a Girl Scout was one of them. I started as a Brownie at the age of 7 before earning enough badges on my vest, and years of service, to graduate to full Scout. It wasn’t so much the selling of cookies or the camaraderie of being part of a girl troop that left an indelible mark. Rather, it was an outing ... my first hike in the woods. I remember it vividly. Being on the trail in a heavily wooded area on Long Island’s North Shore. The crisp air; the sound of my boots crunching the leaves as we all trotted in unison along the footpath; the texture of the tree bark and the way the sunlight dappled through. I absolutely loved it (truth be told, team sports were not my thing). To this day, my favorite outdoor activity is still a long hike in the woods. In this issue, we celebrate outdoor living in all its glory. Our editors take you from the beach to the tennis courts and also through some stunning gardens and bucolic grounds. As the Scouts always say, “Be prepared.”

EVOLUTION
INFLUENCED BY THEIR FORMATIVE YEARS, STATE-SIDE AND ABROAD, FIVE CREATIVES ARE EVOLVING THE DEFINITION OF AMERICANMADE FURNISHINGS AND ACCESSORIES. WRITTEN BY BRITTANY CHEVALIER MCINTYRE
W
hether their styles are historically referential or avant-garde, independent makers across the country offer a quality of design and innovation that stands on its own—one that speaks to a distinct spirit and pride of being locally produced and manufactured. These talents hail from different backgrounds and work within varying mediums, but share common ideals about craftmanship and artisanal values, which are redefining what it means to be American made.
Inspired by the great American woodworker, furniture maker and architect George Nakashima, Jonah Meyer designed Sawkille Co.’s Minna chair (left), Rainbow chair (right) and Orbit table (bottom left) with form and function in mind.
▲ SAWKILLE
Growing up in rural Pennsylvania with parents who were both involved in the arts, Jonah Meyer was drawn to a profession involving artistry and craftsmanship. Surrounded by a traditional landscape and instilled with a hands-on approach during his childhood, Meyer found himself continually crafting something new and often practical. After graduating from Rhode Island School of Design in 1993, he moved to the Catskills, opened a studio—which later became Sawkille Co.—and began making chairs, a self-admitted obsession. “It was always something I did on the side, and I consider it the ultimate challenge,” says Meyer. “Chair mechanics should balance cool design and ergonomics.” Working primarily with wood out of his Kingston, New York, studio, his process is as uncomplicated as the raw materials he uses by steering clear of computer programs and opting to sketch ideas the old-fashioned way. Next, he works with whatever is available at his fingertips—often plywood— to make his prototypes. Multiply this practice by five or six until the designer believes he’s landed on something “equally artistic and comfortable.” Adding his own twist to distinctly American styles, Meyer hopes his designs capture something original that people will recognize as his own. “It can be tough to produce at this level in the United States,” he says. “So, it’s really exciting to know that people think we are doing something interesting.”

MISSOULA, MONTANA Since his childhood, the Montana landscape has influenced John Greytak’s life journey. As a boy taking breaks from working on his family’s farm during the summer months, he would explore and scour the surrounding lands rife with natural elements. Fast forward to when Greytak was decorating his Montana lodge, he accompanied his designer to Tucson’s gem and mineral show where his love for the craft was rekindled, and his passion for a larger artistic purpose brought about the birth of Studio Greytak. “In elevating
these minerals and geodes to take a prominent place in homes, people can further appreciate the beauty nature provides,” says Greytak. All rare materials are sourced from six continents and brought to Missoula, where his team curates each gem to incorporate into furniture, objets and jewelry. After local artisans craft the accompanying metal, wood and glass pieces, the components return to the studio where they are assembled into “functional art.” Greytak’s greatest source of pride: “We are crafting these heirloomquality pieces in Montana—one of the most beautiful and inspiring places in our country.”

A modern-day textile couturier, Maki Yamamoto is known for her highly specialized work using sumptuous fabrics as her canvas. When studying fashion design at the renowned Bunka Fashion College in her home city of Tokyo, Japan, Yamamoto found herself simultaneously immersed in painting and drawing, passions which led her to seek further artistic training at the National Academy School of Fine Arts in New York City. “I always enjoyed fashion, art and design, so I wanted to do something where I could mix these together,” says the designer. And in 2003, she did just that—she merged her work as an artist and fashion designer by artfully embellishing luxury textiles with painterly motifs, modern embroidery, contemporary appliqués and handstitched details to adorn furnishings, lighting pieces, bed linens, drapery, pillows and art installations for her high-end interior design clientele. While her Japanese design background and penchant for traveling have played a large role in her work thus far, she also finds herself deeply moved by the long legacy of American craftsmanship. “I am very impressed by the extremely talented furniture and textile makers in the United States,” says Yamamoto. “Their techniques and passion inspire me greatly.”

▲ JOSEPH PAGANO
HUDSON VALLEY, NEW YORK “To me, the tradition of hard work to create something beautiful without taking shortcuts defines what it means to be American made,” says lighting designer and fabricator Joseph Pagano. Pagano’s studio and workshop in Hudson Valley, New York, where every element of his lighting designs, including the pieces’ fittings and hardware, is made
in-house, poignantly speaks to that belief. Upon graduating from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia with a degree in industrial design, Pagano moved to New York City and enrolled in a glassblowing class at The Experimental Glass Workshop, now known as UrbanGlass, and was immediately hooked. “The physicality of the material—the heat, the moving of the molten—and the endless possibilities really drew me in,” says the designer. Pagano’s latest
collection is influenced by the color, shapes and textures of nature, and his intention is to produce extraordinary lighting pieces that double as artwork. For the designer, years of experience has not only brought an advanced artistry of his craft and a full-scale workshop, but also a confidence in his creative instinct. “After 30 years, creativity flows out of me without interruption,” says Pagano. “There is no second guessing anymore; it is very rewarding.”
⊲ ESTUDIO PERSONA Emiliana Gonzalez and Jessie Young, the duo behind Estudio Persona, were only acquaintances when they lived in their home country of Uruguay. Little did they know that a move to the United States, both for their husbands’ work in film, would solidify their bond as creative compatriots. Gonzalez was originally trained as a product designer and Young as a conceptual artist, and after two years of working as interior designers together, the pair decided to morph their partnership into one that capitalized on both their disciplines and a shared passion for creating products. Informed by the brutalist architecture of its owners’ native country, Estudio Persona’s pieces are sculptural and muted in color, which helps to highlight the studio’s blending of raw and unexpected materials, such as metal and leather. Many of the local Los Angeles artisans that help fabricate Estudio Persona’s pieces are immigrants themselves, and this provides an enormous sense of satisfaction for Gonzalez and Young. “For us, it’s much bigger than just our work; it’s a human service,” says Young. “It’s amazing to produce products that support our local and diverse community.”

GOOD FOLK-INSPIRED DESIGN FLOURISHES IN TODAY’S DIGITALLY DRIVEN CULTURE. WRITTEN BY ALLISON MCCARTHY
Artisan. Small-batch. Handcrafted. From food to furniture, we’re intrigued by origin stories and desire a personal stamp on what we purchase. American folk art exemplifies these qualities; it’s emblematic of heritage and a homespun, handmade quality. Interestingly, in this hyper-fast age, we’re seeing its enduring design return to the scene. “The revival of American folk, just like the resurgence of the maker movement, is rooted in the desire for authenticity and story,” says Pamela Kelly, vice president of licensing and brand management for the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Artists and designers have been influenced by folk themes throughout the decades—from Picasso’s paintings inspired by African tribal masks and last year’s exhibit at the American Folk Art Museum in New York exploring quilts as living records of history to the recent partnership between Cassina and Calvin Klein. For the collaboration, Cassina debuted a limited run of its iconic Feltri chairs upholstered with heirloom Amish quilts. Raf Simons, the chief creative officer at Calvin Klein, refers to the chairs as a “cultural correspondence,” where modern design meets a symbol of American culture. Folk-inspired designs are not only a way to preserve traditions and cultures, but also a means to pause, reflect and reconnect to a slower, more intentional way of life in today’s fast-paced world.
larsentextiles.com
“People are taking the time to appreciate attention to detail, embrace the handmade, and honor the voices of American folk crafts,” says Rachel Doriss, design director of Pollack Studio. For its spring 2018 Undaunted Collection, Pollack partnered with Santa Fe’s Museum of International Folk Art to create 11 fabrics inspired by pieces from the institution’s extensive textile archive. Each Undaunted pattern features original elements reinterpreted in a contemporary way. Text Message, for example, was inspired by 19th-century samplers used to practice embroidery. “Our take is a woven sampler with letters and motifs using weaving terms,” says Doriss. “From afar, it looks like a sample, but up close, there are hidden messages and even emojis.” Artist and designer Kiva Motnyk founded New York City’s Thompson Street Studio with a similar philosophy. Inspired by the tactile quality inherent in folk art, her modern application of traditional textile techniques—weaving, knitting, quilting—helps keep crafting traditions alive. “It’s inevitable in a technological society that people will return, from time to time, to what is personal and authentic,” she says. Excited to see the revival of folk-inspired design in homes imbued with a new energy and vision, Motnyk thinks it’s a natural way for artists to collaborate and share their cultural histories as creatives working in America. For his modern Americana-style interiors, Portland-based designer Max Humphrey pulls in folk-inspired elements to infuse personality into spaces using pottery, tramp art frames and quilts that lend character and context to otherwise neutral backdrops. “Folk has a broad appeal because people are inspired by things made by hand right here in America,” he says. “It’s timeless because it’s symbolic.” In a sense, folk-inspired design is a tool to communicate and preserve stories of craftspeople and communities from the past in a way that’s relevant to our current culture—and that never goes out of style.

HEATH CERAMICS AND SHERRILL MANUFACTURING TEAM UP BRINGING SOPHISTICATED FLATWARE TO THE TABLE.
WRITTEN BY ELIZABETH HUEBSCH PHOTOGRAPHY BY JEFFERY CROSS
There is something to be said for finding the right fit, especially when it comes to honoring a design brand’s legacy. So, when the Sausalito, California-based ceramics and home goods company Heath Ceramics was looking for an American manufacturer to round out its tabletop offerings with its first-ever flatware line, it discovered exactly who to turn to: Sherrill Manufacturing. “We have a deep affinity for companies with heritage and for those remaining when all others have gone elsewhere,” says Heath Ceramics co-owner Robin Petravic of Sherrill.
Sherrill, founded by Matt Roberts and Greg Owens in New York in 2005, is now the only flatware brand making its products in the United States—an enormous source of pride for its founders. “We grew up in this community,” Roberts says. “And we’re survivors.” Despite the nearly 3,000-miles between the two companies, “we walked hand-in-hand down the path together,” he remarks. The result is a five-piece cutlery collection called Muir, the first of three flatware designs by Heath Ceramics (the last two lines are set to launch later this year). The pieces—two forks, two spoons and a knife—honor both brands’ history and devotion to American craftsmanship by showcasing a timeless and humble design with smooth edges, elegant lines and a satisfying grip. Heath Ceramics and Sherrill challenged each other’s perceived limits of manufacturing and design, producing a collection that reflects its shared values and honest spirit committed to craft. “It’s not just about design—it’s also about respect for materials,” says Heath’s Studio Director Tung Chiang, who collaborated with Roberts on the collection. Through their partnership, Chiang learned of Sherrill’s nearly 20-step manufacturing process and the significance of a special tool: a tumbling
To create its new Muir flatware line, Heath Studio Director Tung Chiang first sketched the pieces and then carved wooden models, which Sherrill Manufacturing reproduced in metal (above). Historical designs and vintage flatware samples adorn a wall in Sherrill’s archive room (top).
mechanism built by the company that lends a distinct matte finish to the pieces. The Muir Collection, available in polished or tumbled finishes, was designed to accompany Heath Ceramics’ founder Edith Heath’s original Coupe dinnerware designs—another nod to an enduring legacy.

MORE THAN A FEW SOUTH FLORIDA FOOD HALLS FEATURE DESIGN AS ELEVATED AS THEIR CUISINE.
Italkraft, the luxury purveyor of custom Italian-designed solutions for kitchens, baths and closets, is broadening its foothold in Miami by launching a showroom in Wynwood (36 NW 29th St.) among the artsy neighborhood’s highend developments. The brand’s current hub in Doral (2900 NW 77th Court) is also tripling in size, featuring more interactive showcases for their bespoke creations and new complementary work spaces for design teams. Known as the go-to for elegant, hand-crafted bathroom accessories, Connecticut-based Labrazel heads to West Palm Beach with a special pop-up shop at Pioneer Linens (210 Clematis St.), a local mainstay for lavish bath items and bedding since 1912. Sourcing its wares from small artisanal workshops around the world, Labrazel also collaborates with noted designers on specialty collections, including a new spring line with Alexa Hampton. A stalwart in Boca Raton for more than 40 years, Brown’s Interior Design, now rebranded simply as Brown, has revamped its showroom (4501 N. Federal Highway). The new space features consultation areas and material displays, while interactive kiosk technology lets the team of designers guide clients through a variety of options to visualize potential schemes.
When New Orleans-based St. Roch Market opened a food hall in the Miami Design District (140 NE 39th St.), with a dozen chef-driven concepts representative of the city’s vast culinary scene, aesthetics were as top of mind as the food. The South Florida location features midcentury modern furnishings, marble counters, gold sconces and a freestanding bar in the center. While choosing from cuisines ranging from Israeli to Vietnamese, guests can enjoy rotating art exhibitions and a library containing 3,000 vintage art and design books (below). A celebration of Italy’s varied regions is the idea behind La Centrale (601 S. Miami Ave., shown above), a 40,000-square-foot Italian food hall that spans three floors in downtown Miami’s Brickell City Centre. Blonde wood, light brick and stainless steel reign on the ground level where a half-dozen counters offer quick meals and a pair of casual eateries serve pizza, pasta, burgers and beer. At the very top, a softly lit area lined with floorto-ceiling shelves holds thousands of wines and spirits while a bright, professionally equipped cooking studio stands ready for culinary demonstrations and classes by master chefs. Newly opened in Miami Beach earlier this year, the Arquitectonicadesigned Lincoln Eatery (723 Lincoln Lane N.) houses 14 fast-casual, artisan and grab-and-go concepts, a novel idea in the well-traveled Lincoln Road District. Nearby, at the long-awaited Time Out Market Miami (1601 Drexel Ave., Miami Beach), a multitude of hungry guests—there’s seating for 440— can tuck into treats from 17 of South Florida’s top eateries, sip cocktails created by award-winning mixologists, and check out on-site cooking demonstrations all while viewing works by emerging artists. 082 / LUXESOURCE.COM

BLUEPRINT FOUR SEASONS HOTEL AND PRIVATE RESIDENCES
Fort Lauderdale Beach can look forward to another glimmering addition to its skyline: the upcoming Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences, slated for completion in 2020. A design dream team has been assembled for the 22-story luxury destination. Miami-based architect Kobi Karp created a nauticalinspired building resembling the elegant bow of a luxury cruise liner, complete with an oceanfront pool terrace and plush cabanas. Landscape architect Fernando Wong will cover a third of the property in palm trees and native plants. Inside, British interior designer Tara Bernerd reinterprets coastal living for the hotel’s 130 guest rooms and 90 private residences (both unfurnished and fully furnished offerings), with modern millwork and European midcentury-inspired furnishings. And designer Martin Brudnizki infuses classic yacht-club glamour into the hotel’s culinary attractions, which include interior and alfresco restaurants, lounges and an ocean-view outdoor cafe. fort525residences.com 084 / LUXESOURCE.COM
Spring in South Florida means plenty of outdoor, design-centered events. The Delray Beach Home Tour on March 7 takes guests on an intimate jaunt through picturesque Seagate, exploring the neighborhood’s varied architectural styles. Proceeds go to the Achievement Centers for Children & Families (delrayhometour. com). On March 16, the Coral Gables Garden Club celebrates the legacy of charter member Althea Merrick (mother of the city’s founder, George Merrick) with a Spring Garden and House Tour that covers six notable locations, beginning with the club’s butterfly garden and ending at the historic Merrick House, designed by Althea (coralgablesgardenclub.org). The biannual Garden Club of Palm Beach Flower Show returns April 24-25 at The Society of the Four Arts. The show’s theme is gold leaf and will feature novel creations in floral design, sculptural botanical arts, horticulture and photography (gardenclubpalmbeach.com).

The fair also runs in conjunction with exhibitions at local institutions, such as Florida Atlantic University’s “Black Mirror” showcase of contemporary Salvadoran artists and the Boca Raton Museum of Art’s “Imagining Florida,” spotlighting works inspired by the Sunshine State. This year’s programming aims “to draw Boca as a nexus for art and cultural events,” says Art Boca Raton founder and director Lee Ann Lester. nextlevelfairs.com

TALKING SHOP MRS. MANDOLIN
When you run a beloved Miami eatery and your patrons become obsessed with its tabletop accessories and bohemian decor, if you’re Anastasia Koutsioukis, you open a store. Mrs. Mandolin, her chic lifestyle boutique and café bordering the Miami Design District, perfectly embodies the beachy Mediterranean ambience she’s nurtured for a decade at Mandolin Aegean Bistro, which she cofounded with her husband, Ahmet Erkaya. Koutsioukis chatted with us about creating and curating the stylish shop. mrsmandolin.com
Describe the shop’s vibe. It’s part beach house, part souk—where the Mediterranean meets Miami. We aimed for a sense of coming home, where you can see all the items in their natural context. And in the same spirit of feeling transported that diners get at Mandolin, the store transports your home, your table and your wardrobe to the places we long to be. 086 / LUXESOURCE.COM
Why both a boutique and a café? I wanted to combine my years of experience in fashion and styling along with my role as the perennial host at Mandolin. Great design, food and fashion are all part of the look. What goodies can we expect? Unusual hand-crafted homewares, luxury resort wear and accessories, artisanal pantry items and healthy Aegean-inspired food all under one roof. Tell us your plans for this year. We’re expanding our online presence and launching a new café menu featuring more quick and easy savory options for lunch, like salads and mezes.

What inspired this venture? Our restaurant lends itself to a particular lifestyle. We wanted to create an additional experience for our patrons. In the store, we’ve tried to expand upon that feeling of eternal summer and effortless, coastal living.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s installation work provided a new understanding of scale, medium and accessibility, forming a lexicon beyond previous perceived notions. Completed in 1983, Surrounded Islands (shown) stands as one of the most poignant public works of the century; the pair wrapped 11 islands in Miami’s Biscayne Bay with floating pink polypropylene fabric. The work spanned 7 miles and could be seen from land, water and air, boldly displaying the impact of man-made creations on the aquatic world.

Photographer, sculptor and land artist Robert Smithson was fascinated with the concept of landscape as art. Spiral Jetty, one of his most well-known works, is 1,500 feet long and 15 feet wide, and composed of 7,000 tons of mud, salt crystals and basalt rocks. Constructed in 1970 and configured in a counterclockwise spiral in Great Salt Lake, Utah, Smithson’s work is still intact today. Seen here in a photograph taken by David Burdeny in 2017, this formation is an artful reminder of the significance of preservation in art and nature.

Located along Interstate 15 in Nevada, Seven Magic Mountains is not your run-of-the-mill roadside attraction. Set amongst a scenic landscape of mountains, desert and Jean Dry Lake, the grouping of seven 30- to 35-foot totems enveloped in dayglow hues can be seen for miles. According to Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone, the particular location of the work, along the highway connecting Los Angeles and Las Vegas, is physically and symbolically significant of the relationship between the natural and man-made.

LLOYD FLANDERS OUTDOOR LOOKBOOK
Lloyd Flanders offers 23 distinct collections in a broad range of styles, from traditional to contemporary. Whether a luxury-scale sectional or porch swing, there’s something for every outdoor space. While different regions of the country follow different trends, Lloyd Flanders’ furniture stays consistent with three key elements common in every design: timelessness, comfort and functionality. “Our furniture is built to last, and to be used as much as possible,” president and CEO Dudley Flanders says. Central to this is Flanders’ proprietary Lloyd Loom wicker—a natural-fiber wicker that features long-lasting, high-performance Durium polyester coating for outdoor durability and flexibility. Thus, the furniture withstands full exposure to the elements—sun, rain, even snow—with minimal maintenance. “Vacuum or use a soft brush on woven material and cushions to remove organic material and loosen surface soil, then rinse with a mild detergent and clean water; it’s that simple,” says Warren Juliano, senior vice president of sales and marketing, regarding the line’s trademark ease of care.
INSPIRATION IN THE DIGITAL AGE Consumers have access to an endless supply of design inspiration at the touch of their fingertips. This has created a desire for customization, from mixing and matching materials to unique fabrics and finishes. Our Lloyd Loom products are available in 19 finishes and over 400 fabrics, so the digital age has really helped boost our business.
1. The Hamptons chaise, shown in White, comes in many finishes: Almond, Antique White, Charcoal, Chocolate, Ebony, Ivory, Platinum, Sage and others. 2. The clean lines and comfort-scale seating of the Catalina Collection, here in Hickory, create an effortless home oasis. 3. The Mesa Collection, made of woven vinyl, is shown here in a Pecan finish.

SITTING PRETTY
When designer Ariella Duker of A-List Interiors bought 10 1/2 acres in New York’s picturesque Hudson Valley, she didn’t imagine that months of building delays on the property’s main home would mean designing the pool house first. “The estate is beautiful in the summer months,” Duker notes, so the pool area quickly became the focus. While originally the design of this space had been simpler and more seasonal, the structure is now built for year-round use and features a sophisticated scheme with an elegant kitchen for entertaining as well as a boho bath that adds to the eclectic feel. alistinteriors.com We love the global influence. The design and decoration certainly have a European flair: from the boxwoods and espalier trees framing the outside of the stucco structure to the antiques inside I’ve amassed over time. I like to think of this as country French in upstate New York. Even the bathroom feels international! I wanted the pool house to be both grand and casual at once.
How did you approach the kitchen? My hope was that it would feel less like a traditional kitchen and more like an entertaining space. Handcrafted English cabinetry with antique brass mesh reaches the 10-foot ceilings and it’s so nice to be able to keep seasonal items here. The dishwasher was also very important as it makes entertaining easy and, luckily, I have enough space to store an extra set of glasses and dishes. The kitchen really makes hanging around and lounging by the pool that much more relaxing! Clockwise from top left: A corner bench from the Brimfield Antique Show sits under an architectural triptych. The small but mighty kitchen holds a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, Monogram ice maker and Shaws Original sink by Rohl. Walker Zanger tile decorates the floor of the bathroom. 154 / LUXESOURCE.COM

The bathroom is such a jewel box. Where did you begin with this space? I fell in love with a salvaged door from a Moroccan riad and knew it would work perfectly for the bathroom entrance. From there, it was about mixing this distressed piece with a more high-style mosaic tile on the floors. While this room is small, it covers everything you need and encourages people to not go traipsing through the main house in wet bathing suits.

THE LATEST DESIGN TRENDS TO TRANSFORM YOUR LANDSCAPE INTO AN OUTDOOR OASIS.
WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY BRITTANY CHEVALIER MCINTYRE AND MARY ORE
GREEN ESCAPE A garden is a manifestation of its creator, reflecting one’s personality and passions. Just like how architectural elements, such as coffered ceilings or moldings, are added to interiors to reflect an owner’s style, the same attention to detail should be given to exterior spaces. Components of outdoor architecture—walls, paths, pergolas, gates, lighting, furnishings, waterworks and art—together form the backbone of a well-designed estate. Whether your preferred aesthetic is a well-kept topiary garden using traditional plantings or a freespirited mélange of natural flora, there are various structural elements—fabricated and organic—that contribute to properly planned greenery. Exuberant or contemplative, these spaces prove that inspiring architecture extends well beyond the walls of the home and into the great outdoors.

Pavilions are an alternative way to provide shelter or act as an ornamental feature in landscape design. Unlike a typical gazebo, deconstructed structures with an exposed architectural framework, like this wrought-iron pavilion designed by architect Douglas Wright, who worked with LaGuardia Design Group and landscape designer Edwina von Gal, offers formality while allowing clear views to the Southampton, New York, property’s surrounding dogwood trees, Myrtle ground cover and a shallow reflecting pool. laguardiadesigngroup.com

SPHERE of INFLUENCE
Drawing on materials long favored by architects as well as artists, including stainless steel, copper, bronze and stone, British sculptor David Harber creates dazzling artworks that react to and engage with their natural setting. Geometric pieces include Matrix (right), created from bronze hoops and inset with decorative plates of 23 3/4-karat gold. Dark Planet (far right) features an assemblage of hundreds of irregularly shaped puddle stones—“raw nature transformed to geometry,” the sculptor notes. davidharber.com
“A bench is a principal element to organize an outdoor space, making a garden into a room,” says McKinnon and Harris cofounder Anne Massie, who, with her brother, Will, turned to some of the company’s earliest designs, inspired by the Regency style, to create this Otey four-seater piece. The graceful diamond lattice back carries hints of chinoiserie, and the white hue offers a bright contrast to surrounding greenery. “There are so many ephemeral things in a garden, and a bench, like architecture, is the one thing that is unchanging,” says Will. mckinnonharris.com

WIT AND WHIMSY
PYRAMID POWER Inspired by an 18th-century folly in Yorkshire by English architect John Carr, known for his imposing Palladian structures, the Needle’s Eye rises from a pond at Winterthur’s entrance. Like the sandstone original—designed to settle a wager about whether the Second Marquess of Rockingham could drive his coach through the eye of a needle—the floating pyramid features an ogee door and is topped with a finial in the shape of an urn.
⊳ TURKISH DELIGHT The influence of the Turkish Empire on English decorative arts coincided with the fashion for follies, resulting in exotic structures such as this bright pink tent. Fabric with hand-stitched details and a block-print pattern encloses a cozy interior full of plush seating—the perfect shelter from rainfall during a ramble through the grounds. Winterthur’s original owner, the late collector and designer Henry Francis du Pont—who helped Jacqueline Kennedy renovate the White House—developed the gardens on the 1,000-acre estate in the early 20th century and incorporated various follies into his plans.
RUSTIC REFUGE ⊲ For a simple summer house, massive American beech stump pillars support a bundled beech twig roof, all from trees on the estate. Grapevine and bittersweet vine serve as rafters, while stacked slices of birch stumps form an appealing pattern on an interior wall. Inspired by a folly at The Royal Gardens at Highgrove, the retreat of Prince Charles, this wee picturesque structure is totally green.

TAKE shelter
In his first book, The Art of Outdoor Living, California-based landscape designer Scott Shrader showcases the bucolic grounds of 12 properties as extensions of the homes they surround. Shrader shares his tips for creating inviting alfresco spaces. shraderdesign.com What qualities should every outdoor area have? With seating, lighting and shelter, a garden can become another environment for living and entertaining. Typically, people feel most comfortable when they have some form of covering overhead, such as a steel trellis or a grid of old olive trees (shown above). Why is that? It is often overlooked as commonplace, but the much-needed shade produced by a tree’s branches provides its visitors with a sense of warmth and protection. Any specific tricks to share? Wherever there is seating, I make sure it faces a beautiful view.
THE LOOK / THE REPORT
To create the ultimate dramatic entrance, landscape architect Jarrod Ryan Baumann incorporated more than 2,800 succulents into a glorious vertical teak garden gate that opens to a Bay Area residence. The composition—an eye-catching arrangement of varietals in a range of shades and textures—blurs the line between nature and architecture in an innovative way. “Our designs tend to be very architectural,” notes Baumann, who used the gate to set the tone for the architecture and greenery within. “We see the landscape as both a structure and piece of land that we sculpt into something brilliant.” zeterre.com
9HOT seats
Believed to have been carried over from Buddhist garden tradition of using natural elements like tree stumps as seats, garden stools have been a part of the Chinese furniture tradition for 1,000 years. Handmade of ceramic using old-master finishes and techniques, the Durian Garden stool (right) and Magnolia stool (far right) are both hand-glazed and uniquely feature a range of decorative motifs like foo dogs, magnolia blooms and simulated nailheads. Not only do they provide great versatility as a side table or extra seating, but they also add that much-needed pop of color or texture to any interior or exterior space. dennisandleen.com

PASSION PROJECT
When landscape architect Janice Parker was given the opportunity to reinvigorate Altracraig, a historic estate in Ridgefield, Connecticut, initially designed by Ellen Shipman, one of the most accomplished garden designers of the early 20th century, it was an opportunity she couldn’t refuse. Here, Parker gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her work on this historical space. janiceparker.com With your passion for history, this project seems like a natural fit. I’ve always been inspired by the long line of creative and hardworking American female landscape architects who were innovators and trailblazers, especially Ellen Shipman, who broke the mold. She was a single mother from a less affluent background compared to others in her field. What was your vision for the estate? My client’s overarching goal was to preserve the historical nature of this property and return it to its earliest grandeur. With few existing records of the original garden and only one image from a postcard, I let Shipman’s design principles be my guide while adding my own modern perspective. Where did you begin? Working with architect Sean O’Kane, certain structural items, like the balustrade (shown above) and lower fountain, were restored to acknowledge the traditional architectural elements. In addition to the lush geometry and vibrant colors that define the plantings, I followed Shipman’s landscape principle of “enclosing” the space to make it similar to a garden room. Using hedges, necklaces of large trees and arches, I tried to weave in that classic sense of garden enclosures. How do you want visitors to experience the space? With the garden’s historical charm, versatile functionality and contemporary design, I want people to feel the magic of blending the past, present and future together, and not really know where they are.

t’s no easy feat to make a sleek and contemporary interior also emanate warmth. That was the challenge designer Leah Muller faced when working on a new home for a retired couple in Vero Beach. “I like to combine woven furnishings with smooth metals and stone,” she says of her strategy. “The balance is surprising and makes a difference in a room. Combining tropical elements with modern accents is exciting.” The owners previously lived in a larger, traditional-style residence in town. “We had a beautiful house on the river, but we wanted something newer that had everything our old place had,” the wife says. They also wanted to downsize, the husband adds. “We were looking to build a house where we’d use all of the rooms,” he notes, explaining they had never made the most of spaces like the formal living room. Architect Randall Stofft came to the couple’s rescue and designed a contemporary structure that provides the practicality they were seeking. “It’s a classic split plan with an open, light-filled public space that separates the master suite on one side and a guest room on the other,” he says. The living area encompasses a wet bar, the kitchen and a breakfast area, while 10-foot-tall sliding glass walls lead to exterior spaces. “Outdoors, there’s a summer kitchen and a large living room with a fireplace,” the architect says. “The floor plan of the house is a modified L-shape that wraps around and engages the pool and the outdoor space.” He sided the exterior with smooth, off-white stucco

and employed a pitched roof covered with concrete tiles. “It’s a more modern take on West Indies-inspired architecture,” Stofft explains. Muller also was also involved in the architecture, helping determine interior aspects like ceiling heights, room sizes and hard finishes. In this way, she was able to ensure those elements were consistent throughout the house as well as select perfectly coordinated furnishings and decor. For instance, window frames have a bronze finish, which the designer matched to pieces such as the iron-and-glass lanterns above the kitchen island. Similarly, the living area’s metal side tables and coffee table with an iron base refer to the bronze finish that lines the room’s massive glass doors. The framework sets a contemporary tone, particularly displayed in the living area’s glossy quartzite fireplace surround. However, to prevent the interior from seeming cold, the team paid extra attention to natural light, texture
and scale. While the glass doors welcome sunlight, European white-oak flooring throughout the residence ushers in warmth. Each room’s atmosphere is also influenced by the height of its ceiling: In the airy living area, it’s peaked and painted white; in the restful master bedroom, it’s high and flat; while in the husband’s cozy office, it’s paneled in black walnut. “The designer and the architect for this project were always looking to push the edge in terms of quality,” recalls general contractor David Barin. “We reworked the ceiling in the office multiple times. The walnut waterfalls seamlessly from the ceiling to the wall and to the built-in.” Mostly white walls establish a blank canvas for Muller’s coastal-modern design. “A neutral background allows for layers of texture and color, and they should coordinate, not compete, with the hard finishes,” she explains. The designer juxtaposed the cool, sleek details with natural elements, such as the living area’s sisal rug, linen drapery

sheers, patterned armchairs and combed cotton-like sofa upholstery. “The quartzite on the fireplace has a smooth high-gloss finish and is a counterpoint to the woven textures,” she says. Nearby, natural wood chairs surround a white breakfast table and, in a nod to the tropics, yellow floral-printed stools line the kitchen counter. To heighten the seaside atmosphere, Muller injected the interiors with blue and gray tones. “They’re hues that bring a tranquil feeling,” she says. In the dining area, they show up on the coral-print chairs and striped drapery fabric. “The palette is simple and refined,” says project manager Shannon Colkitt. “It’s perfect for a warm family gathering or an elegant dinner party.” Gray ceramic tiles compose the kitchen backsplash, while a turquoise raffia nightstand adds a dash of vibrancy to
a neutral guest room. The master suite, meanwhile, is a study in blue and white: Sky blue walls and draperies offset the bedroom’s white armchairs and bedding, and the bathroom’s metallic silver-and-blue wallpaper complements the white marble flooring. Naturally, the color scheme continues outside, where pillows and cushions in green and blue top cream-hued furnishings on the loggia, coordinating with the watery colors of the nearby pool and surrounding landscape. The blend of coastal and modern elements yields a serene ambience in the home. And despite the structure’s estate-like feel, the owners say they use every space in the residence. “I love my office, and I spend a lot of time there,” the husband says. “The views and the openness really make this house something beautiful and peaceful.”

F
or nearly three years, Carlos and Laura Silva searched for the perfect spot in Miami to construct their forever home. “We would literally go door to door and ask people if they were thinking of selling their house,” Laura recalls. “Eventually, I was so frustrated that I told Carlos, ‘Let’s just remodel our home and forget about building something new.’ ” One day, the Silvas returned to a residence they’d visited—only this time, they were greeted by a different person. “The man who opened the door said his mother had passed away three weeks ago, and the family wanted to sell the house quickly,” Laura says. “I explained to the gentleman I needed to pray for guidance before making a decision. Once I told him that, he said he knew we were meant to knock on his door that day.” The man agreed to sell the couple the property, finally ending their search. While in accord regarding the neighborhood, the Silvas were slightly at odds about the style of their new abode. “Our previous home was very traditional, and I wanted more of a relaxed, modern design this time,” Laura says. “I wanted it to feel warm and cozy but sophisticated.” Carlos, however, loves classic looks. That’s where interior designer Bea Pila came in, pulling together an aesthetic that satisfies both preferences by defining the home’s mood, rather than its style. “When I meet with clients, the first thing I ask them to do is write down words that describe how they want to feel in their home,” she says. “Laura and Carlos told me ‘comfortable, relaxed and elegant,’ so every design choice I made referred to those words.” Influenced by their travels overseas, the Silvas’ new home is a modern interpretation of a European château. “Although their residence is inspired by a traditional French estate, it’s not as heavily ornamented,” explains architect Antonio E. Rodriguez, who simplified elements such as exterior handrails and scroll details. “The lines are clean and classic, versus overly ornate.” Carlos, meanwhile, took a large role in the construction of the project and oversaw the expansive

home’s completion. The resulting structure encompasses a wine cellar, a cigar room and a chapel, while the grounds also contain a pavilion for entertaining as well as a tennis court, a pool and a soccer field for the couple’s young children. Inside, Pila addressed the classic-contemporary dichotomy from the beginning. The grand two-story foyer displays a barreled gold-leaf ceiling, a pair of French armchairs and a trio of Venetian chandeliers along with limestone flooring, modern sconces and an edgy marble console table set against a mirrored wall. The entry leads to a Pila-created lounge reminiscent of one found in a hotel, complete with a bar, a fireplace and a piano. “In every home I create, no matter how big or small, everybody ends up in the kitchen when they’re entertaining,” she says. “The only way to stop that from happening is to produce another environment that’s just as enticing.” To that end, the interior designer fashioned a variety of conversation areas by grouping armchairs around a coffee table near the fireplace and pairing barstools with occasional tables along the glass doors to the loggia. Traditional wood beams line the ceiling, while contemporary porcelain wood tile in a chevron pattern surrounds the fireplace. “We also added bronze mirrored mosaic tiles that were stripped down and embedded into the porcelain, which instantly modernizes it and offers some sparkle,” Pila says. The room establishes the home’s cool palette of taupe, ecru, white, silver and navy. “This space is so inviting and comfortable that you want to be in there for hours, having drinks with friends by the fireplace or piano,” the interior designer says. On the other side of the bar, the family room provides an additional gathering place with a navy sectional and blue swivel armchairs arranged around marble coffee tables. Bits of color come from the orange sofa pillows and the red-and-tan painting by Antonio Guerrero—one of the many pieces by Cuban artists Pila sourced in honor of the couple’s heritage. “Artwork is so personal, so this was a challenge,” she admits, adding that Laura prefers abstract themes while Carlos does not. “But we were able to find some really beautiful pieces they both loved.” The room connects to the spacious white kitchen where an oversize quartzite-topped island dominates, dark wooden beams decorate the ceiling and Calacatta Gold marble forms the backsplash. Down the hall, a staircase leads to the master suite, a grand space rendered in champagne and ivory. Pila arranged a cozy sofa and armchair near a large tufted ottoman in the sitting area and set an elegant, feminine tone for the sleeping quarters with a French-style bed. “Even though Laura wanted a modern look for the home, she was still drawn to the soft lines of French traditional,” the interior designer explains. A Romo wallcovering surrounds the room, and velvet-trimmed sheer draperies frame doors to a terrace. The journey to their forever home may have taken years, but the Silvas are grateful to have a new dwelling that is at once relaxed and refined. “Carlos and I sit on our terrace looking out over our beautiful backyard, and we feel so blessed we were able to do this,” Laura says.

t the entrance of sculptor Susan Phipps Cochran’s Palm Beach estate, two giant ants greet passersby, their slick bronze heads and spindly arms surrounded by lush foliage. Distracting curious drivers, the pair caused two minor car accidents the day they were installed, Cochran recalls with a twinkle in her eye. It’s a small point of pride for the wry artist, known for her whimsical, towering bronze sculptures. Her beloved insects, from the 8-foot earwig to a colony of colossal ants, have invaded South Florida and traveled to places such as Chicago, New York, Las Vegas and Dubai. Other bronzed critters and various pieces also reside at Cochran’s home, Casa Phippsberger—a mix of her paternal family name and the surname of her husband, historic preservationist Robert Eigelberger. Its luxuriant gardens have been a source of inspiration for the artist since childhood. The Phipps family traces its Palm Beach roots to the early 1900s when Cochran’s great-grandfather, Henry Phipps Jr., owned one-third of the island. Her businessman-polo player father, Michael, was also a painter, and art-making was a family tradition. “We knitted and learned poetry,” she recalls. “We were always making things.” As a teen, Cochran tried art school in Paris “but lasted two days,” she admits. Instead, Cochran began globe-trotting, excavating shipwrecks and learning about life from a renowned Zulu healer. Eventually, she took up Native American beading and for 20 years created glittering tableaus. Then “my eyesight gave out,” she says, “so I went bigger and better in bronze.” That endeavor began in 2003, when Palm Beach artist Helmut Koller asked Cochran to decorate a chair for a local fundraising auction. Instead, she made a pair of bronze
floating overalls that doubled as seating. Koller pointed her to the team at the Robert St. Croix Sculpture Studio and Foundry, and for nearly 20 years they have helped realize her playful visions, which include life-size tribal warriors and enlarged fruit and plants. Her signature, however, has to be the ant. Cochran likes its architectural qualities and the perplexed, squeamish reactions the human-size creature elicits. “One day, I’ll probably make a cockroach,” she teases. Although Cochran consults photographs for her insects’ anatomical accuracy, she mainly relies on a lifetime spent outdoors. “The ideas are all in my head, rattling around like old stones,” she notes. To begin a sculpture, she creates a clay model; then, with the foundry team, employs Styrofoam armatures to enlarge the final form, adding details in clay. She also painstakingly gives each piece its own patina. A 22-foot pea pod where ants push peas, like the mythical Sisyphus, is Cochran’s latest work. But her bugs “are never ferocious,” she says. “I want people to get close and enjoy.” That they do. In the deserts of Dubai or among the lights of Las Vegas, young and old happily perch on her insects or clamber down their backs. For the artist, it’s fun watching admirers rediscover childlike awe for nature, much like she finds in her own gardens. “Grown-ups don’t get playgrounds,” Cochran says. “And we all deserve somewhere to play.”
In her Palm Beach home studio (above), artist Susan Phipps Cochran sketches ideas for her sculptures, which include chairs and oversize insects. The works come to life at the Robert St. Croix Sculpture Studio and Foundry (previous pages).

NEW WAVE IN FORT LAUDERDALE, AN OCEANFRONT CO-OP GETS A COZY INTERIOR UPDATE. WRITTEN BY SUSAN FRIEDMAN / PHOTOGRAPHY BY RICHARD POWERS
LUXESOURCE.COM / 203
I
nterior designers Raymond Jimenez and Shannon Scott were already familiar with the 1954 co-op in the Fort Lauderdale neighborhood of Harbor Beach. They had been working on a unit in the building when Jiri Klubal and Andrea Zabel asked the duo to reimagine theirs, a vacation home destined to become their full-time residence. Located a few steps from the Atlantic Ocean, the dwelling was intended to be a haven for rest and relaxation. “We put our heads together and wondered: What does the space need to feel like?” Jimenez says. “Our conclusion was modern, beachy and inviting.” The residence initially required a few structural changes to reconfigure its tight, closed-in layout. “Everything had been blocked off, and the owners wanted a more open concept,” Scott recalls. To tackle the renovations, the interior designers turned to general contractor Andres Hoyos. With Bruce Carlson serving as architect of record, Hoyos and his team gutted the rooms and demolished the walls around the kitchen. The resulting free-flowing space has become the centerpiece of the home, with proximity to the living area and the den. “You can now walk a full circle throughout the interior because of the floor plan,” Jimenez says. Hoyos also installed porcelain flooring throughout the home as well as trimless frame lighting and ipe wood ceiling planks from the living area to the kitchen. “The wood structure is floating and is cut in an L-shape to create a cove light,” he says. “The sides have a knife-edge profile, so you don’t see the thickness of the wood.” To delineate areas such as the master bedroom, den and bathrooms, Jimenez and Scott employed sliding smoked-

glass partitions, rather than traditional doors. Also a clever space-saving measure, the doors stack together and allow the homeowners to completely open the residence to guests when entertaining. Framed in bronze, the glass still offers privacy; only silhouettes are visible from the other side. Within the new setting, the interior designers introduced modern finishes, contemporary lighting and understated tones in line with the airy aesthetic. In doing so, the duo played to each other’s strengths: Jimenez, for instance, considers himself a refined modernist and tends to focus on details such as millwork and how features should be flush and trimless. “Ray has an architectural mind for streamlining,” Scott says, pointing out how Jimenez ensured the living area’s side table aligns with the trimless recessed and surface-mount lights. He also painstakingly composed the master bathroom’s convex ceramic art piece tile-by-tile. For her part, Scott, who favors more eclectic styles, takes the lead on elements related to mood and atmosphere, such as material compositions and furniture placement. In this case, she and Jimenez took Andrea on a shopping trip to the Windy City to hunt for the perfect pieces. “Ninety percent of the furniture in the home comes from Chicago,” Scott says. “We get a different perspective there.” The trio returned from the excursion with items such as the kitchen’s contemporary copper bar stools, the living area’s blush-toned modular sofa and the master bedroom’s curved black-and-white houndstooth-patterned loveseat. The furniture is especially striking against the neutral color palette and understated features that pervade the home, such as the gray croc paneling that spans most of a wall in the living area. “Ray had to be convinced of the croc,” Scott laughs. Jimenez concurs, “The subtlety of the color, the scale of the croc and the stitching around each panel help to refine it.” Nearby, the off-white Corian kitchen countertops dominate the center of the space. And the master bathroom’s cool black, white and gray color scheme underscores the modern mood. Still, the interior designers found ways to incorporate pops of color, including blue and brass accessories, plum gray cushions on the kitchen stools and a red leather chair in the den. Much like Jimenez and Scott, who merged their design talents, the residence is a posh, pleasing blend of two distinct looks: contemporary and beachy, uniting the best of both styles. As Jimenez notes: “When you can make a space modern, clean and sophisticated, that is the ultimate satisfaction.”
Interior designers Raymond Jimenez and Shannon Scott brought a Fort Lauderdale oceanfront co-op to life in a modern yet warm fashion. Against the living area’s croc Ornare wallpaneling, a shelf and a media console hold accessories like coral artwork from Michael Dawkins Home and a glass-coil sculpture by Sklo.
