Direct Importers of the World’s Finest Rugs CAUCASIAN RUGS

We are a full service rug company, featuring the world’s finest rugs.

We specialize in new, antique, and semi-antique hand-woven masterpieces from all over the world with one of the largest selections nationally.

Adibs.com • 801-484-6364 3092 S Highland Dr, Salt Lake City At the Historic Villa Theater

Caucasian rugs are named for their region of origin: the area of the Caucasus Mountains which links modern day Turkey and Iran. Bordering Iran to the North, the Caucasus ranks among the most grandiose and hostile landscapes in the world. A single narrow ridge of mountains stretching 400 miles east to west and containing twelve peaks higher than the tallest Alps, along with numerous glaciers and tumbling gorges that rival those of the Himalayas. The mountains are climaxed by Mt. Elbruz, towering to 18,493 feet above sea level. Here, in Greek legend, the god Zeus chained Prometheus for eternity as punishment for delivering fire to man.

For centuries these mountains have provided refuge for nomadic peoples who were forced to go there after being driven out of more hospitable areas. These mountain peoples were known both for their spirited sense of independence and their longevity, with many tribal elders living decades past one hundred years. This harsh environment of either the high mountain meadows where they grazed their sheep; or the deep valley below where they waited out the winter, created a gratitude for anything that provided comfort or beauty. Perhaps as an expression of the deep joy of a people living and working close to the earth, the tribesperson wove rugs.

These carpets he created were magnificent! The Caucasian carpet possesses an individuality, a boldness and deep sense of unity which is truly unsurpassed in the world of antique Oriental rugs.

These rugs are most striking, containing a daring use of color, balanced not by shading, but rather through contrast. The predominant reds, blues, greens and yellows would seem clashing to the mind, yet the superb confidence of the Caucasian craftsmen created color combinations so harmonious that they have been marveled at and studied by Western artists for centuries. The entire evolution of tribal rug weaving can be seen in Caucasian antique carpets. The dragon motif, boteh, flowerhead, arabesque, palmette, birds, animals, cloudband and crab designs are all present. Sometimes many of these are found in a single antique rug. Determination and intensity side-by-side with humor and lightness demonstrate the dexterity of the Caucasian weaver.

It is of little wonder that the weavings of the numerous Caucasian tribal groups enjoy a universal popularity among collectors of antique Oriental rugs today. They are living examples which speak to us of both the gaiety and deep understanding of life possessed by their creators – the mountain weavers of the Caucasus.

Come into the Gallery and select the Caucasian rug that speaks to you from our extensive inventory!

EDITOR’S NOTE

Surprise Delivery I

’m not going to speculate on whether putting a swimming pool inside your front door is a good idea, but I will say that when you have an opportunity to make your home special and uniquely yours, it seems silly not to do it.

I admit, I didn’t see it coming. When I first visited Dorothy Day Lee’s remodeled Spanish-style home (Spanish Revival, page 74), I naturally expected to enter a foyer when I walked through the front door.

Instead, I stepped into a sun-soaked courtyard anchored by a swimming pool, large fringed umbrellas, potted palms and a loggia leading to double doors painted peacock blue. This second doorway opened to an interior filled with equally surprising design.

As an editor whose job it is to seek out strikingly unique homes to share with our readers, I’d just hit the jackpot. And as a result, so have you. Each room in this home is more inspiring than the next.

These days, we all crave special spaces. We want to see them in magazines, and we want to live in

them. The key word here is special. Today, good design is no longer about perfection. It’s about personality. It’s the difference between a predictable, albeit pretty, model home and a delightful dwelling filled with wit, customized functionality and one-of-a-kind style. And of course, it’s about thought-provoking surprises.

On that front, this issue delivers big time. From this courtyard pool in Salt Lake City and a wild black-and-white marble floor in Orem to dazzling screens in Park City, fabulous outdoor fire features and much more, daring design flourishes in the following pages, ready to prompt personalized spaces of your own.

MOVE OVER GRAY, you’ve had your moment. We’re ready for something more cheerful but equally chic.

Enter today’s pastels. These aren’t the candy-colored hues of kids’ rooms and Easter eggs, but rather earthier, more sophisticated shades reminiscent of charming Scandinavian design. Ironically, the trick to creating this grown-up palette is tinging pure pastels with a hint of, you guessed it, gray.

IN GOOD TASTE

Classic

SPEAK OF THE DEVIL We’ve hatched four devilishly delicious recipes for boiled eggs.

YOU MIGHT NOT care that the deviled egg can be traced back to ancient Rome. Or that deviling refers to using seasonings to make foods spicy. Or that deviled eggs are very on-trend and are starring on the menus of many of today’s top restaurants. All this knowledge is secondary to your simple need for hard-boiled egg recipes. Well, dare we say, it’s time to get cracking.

STEP 1: Mash yolks from 6 hard-boiled eggs. Add 1/4 tablespoon mayonnaise (or yogurt), 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard, pinch of salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

STEP 2: Fill the halved egg whites with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle with paprika.

Bacon & Paprika Begin with Classic recipe’s step 1.

Stir in 2 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled. Fill the halved egg whites with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle with paprika and garnish with a bacon bit.

Wasabi & Unagi Begin with Classic recipe’s step 1. Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons Chinese mustard, 1 teaspoon wasabi paste. Fill the halved egg whites with the yolk mixture. Top with unagi.

HOW TO (REALLY):

BOIL AN EGG Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a rolling boil, then remove pan from heat and cover.

Let eggs remain in the water for 15 minutes. Drain eggs and put them in a bowl filled with ice water. Wait half an hour, then carefully peel.

26

U TA H S T Y L E A N D D E S I G N | S P R I N G 2 0 1 8

Sriracha & Cilantro Begin with Classic recipe’s step 1. Stir in 2 Tablespoons chopped green onions.

Fill the halved egg whites with the yolk mixture. Top with 2-3 stripes of Sriracha sauce; sprinkle with paprika and top with a cilantro leaf.

“I’ve always loved color, so the biggest mark of my work is the color,” says artist and Cedar City resident Jennifer Rasmusson. Her work, which vacillates between oils and mixed media, often incorporates an array of brilliant hues. Because of her love for natural coloration, she’s particularly inspired by springtime. “Coming up from all the grays of winter and seeing all the pops of color, that’s what I love. The little bit of green that comes out, the blues. Everything is crisp and sharper in the spring,” says Rasmusson.

And this was definitely the case in Nightsong: “The pansies came right from the nursery, and I decided I wanted to paint them immediately. I liked the idea of these flowers looking around and seeing where their new home was going to be.”

GARDENING

Crystal Kim, Red Butte Garden Horticulturalist

4 TIPS

SELECTING COMPANION PLANTS

2

PERFECTLY PAIRED

3

Like most of us, plants thrive with companions. The trick, says horticulturalist Crystal Kim, is choosing the perfect partners. She offers the following gardening tips to help you do exactly that.

IT’S EASY to fall in love with a plant and want it to fill your garden. Perhaps for that reason, many beautiful gardens consist of one primary type of plant, a star performer such as hosta, rose, iris or daylily. But a star deserves carefully chosen companion plants that highlight

34

U TA H S T Y L E A N D D E S I G N | S P R I N G 2 0 1 8

its beauty. They are supporting players, much like a prima ballerina has the corps de ballet. Whether it’s through their form, color, texture or bloom time, companion plants complement the best features of your garden star, as well as provide interest during its down times.

4

Some companion plants are more suitable in certain situations. For example, a ground cover can be difficult to maintain if it’s growing around thorny rose canes. Consider growth rates and size to avoid extremely vigorous plants that will become weeding headaches or garden thugs that overwhelm your star. se a variety of shapes and textures U to complement your star. Plants can be upright, like feather reed grass, elegant as foxglove spires, low and full like a mound of coral bells or the spreading carpet of stonecrop. Plant textures can range from fine-leafed bluestar to bold-leafed hosta. Plants can also be airy and open like prairie dropseed or dense and structured like boxwood.

Consider the play of color in your garden. Depending on your preferences, you can choose colors that either harmonize or contrast with your star plant.

Pay attention to both the color of the foliage and the flower, as well as other attributes such as fruit or bark.

BY CRYSTAL KIM; PHOTO COURTESY OF RED BUTTE GARDENS; PORTRAIT BY ASHLEY BAKER

1

Companion plants should have habitat requirements similar to your star plant. Consider sun exposure, soil type, nutrient requirements and watering needs. Choose disease— and pest—resistant plants to reduce maintenance and chemical use.

Wood shelves mounted on black iron brackets add depth and character to the tiled wall of a farmhouse-styled kitchen in Midway.

The shelves frame a wood-faced hood, reinforcing the key focal point while providing symmetry to the broad wall. The unpainted wood shelves visually link to similarly finished bin-style drawers below. Design by Caitlin Creer with homeowner Lee Ann Myers. Builder: Lane Myers Construction.

In the galley kitchen of a small Salt Lake City home, designer Anne-Marie Barton rejected a bulky “stand-out” hood above the range. Instead, she created an open frame of unlacquered brass that’s inset with glass shelves and hangs from the ceiling with hooks. The see-through feature lightens the compact room while making it look and feel roomy. “They make efficient use of the limited space in the small footprint of this gourmet kitchen,” she says. To foster a classic masculine vibe in the engaging

space, Barton displayed monogrammed glassware and gold-trimmed dishes on the shelves.

To help make this loft’s kitchen feel open and bright, McKenzie Dickson with Denton House Design Studio mounted open shelves on a wall clad in brick-stacked ceramic tile. “Exposing a collection of the owners’ coffee mugs adds charm and gives the space character,” says Dickson, who wrapped the shelves in steel to link them visually to the ceiling beams and range hood made from the same material.

Fish-scale patterned tiles in brilliant blue create an eye-catching backdrop to thick wood shelves in the kitchen of a Victory Ranch cabin in Kamas. Designed by Jill Self, principal of Sticks & Stone, these shelves are placed next to a large window that provides generous light for the pieces they display. Self integrates open shelves into many of her kitchen projects to provide a place for clients to showcase favorite dishes, glasses and collectibles. “It encourages more style and design in the space,” she says.

The success of any soirée depends on the details. As event-and-floral designer Amanda Schelin proves, the best springtime party captures the light-hearted style and lively colors of the season.

etails can make or break an event,” says Amanda Schelin, owner of Branches, an event floral company. When staging this cheery springtime scene for a small gettogether, she began with a theme—a must-have for any successful event, the pro insists. “I was inspired by the catchy lyrics of the song ‘Build Me Up Buttercup’ by The Foundations,” she says.

U TA H S T Y L E A N D D E S I G N | S P R I N G 2 0 1 8

She suspended a custom, wooden sign of the song’s title over a table set with sunny daffodils and carefully chosen tabletop pieces. The sign is just one of many elements Schelin devised to make the party’s setting special and inviting.

We asked her to share ideas and inspiration that spurred the creation of this and the scene’s other delightful details.

ENTRY MAKER

FRESH FLOWERS

CUSTOMIZED CAKE

“Make it special from the start,” advises Schelin, who floated balloons from Zurchers over containers of fresh flowers near the entry.

“I chose large balloons so it didn’t look like a birthday party.” Hi-Float solution allows the helium-filled balloons to last and float longer.

White vases filled with cut daffodils propped in glass pebbles brighten the center of the table. Schelin arranged the yellow and white blooms in separate containers. “This color-blocking approach looks more modern,” she explains.

“There is no bad time for cake,” says Schelin, who enlisted Cake Dame to make a special cake to foster the party’s special style.

“Another easy option is buying a simple buttercream cake at the bakery and dressing it up with flowers and greenery.”

SPECIAL SIPS

MENU CARDS

CATCHY THEME

“A party can revolve around something as simple as pastries and a special drink,” Schelin insists. She gathered pretty bottles of ginger soda, sparkling glasses and sprigs of thyme to top a side table staged as a drink station where guest serve themselves.

“Menu cards add a personalized touch to a setting and let your guests know what’s coming up next,” Schelin says.

She printed these on sturdy card stock and painted each individually with water colors to create a subtle ombré effect.

The song title ‘Build Me Up Buttercup’ inspired the party’s theme and was captured in a custom wood sign created by Impressions Shop for less that $50. Schelin suspended the sign above the table and dressed the string with fresh jasmine vine.

LESSONS LEARNED Spring tabletop tips from Amanda Schelin • Buy cut daffodils a day or two prior to your party to allows closed flowers sufficient time to open. Change water frequently.

• Place a colored runner down the table’s center to promote an accent color and elevate the style of the tabletop.

• Have craft paper and twine

on hand for wrapping small bunches of flowers that guest can take home.

• Handwrite a “Thank you for Coming” message on the back of menu cards.

• Add colored glassware to prevent a yellow and white palette from appearing one-dimensional.

• Use glass gems or polished pebbles to help keep cut flowers in place within a container.

• Use gold flatware to dress up place settings and add an element of surprise.

• Make certain tablecloths extend to the floor to hide the legs of folding tables.

NGLISH TEXTILE designer William Morris once advised, “Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.” Too often, we are so overwhelmed by the abundance and easy access to quick and cheap items that we sacrifice beauty and quality.

“Here at Forsey’s, we strongly believe that it’s not just the family that shapes the home, but also the home that shapes the family,” says Jack Forsey, vice president and manager. “There are just some aspects of life—such as the home—that are too important, personal and permanent to cut corners.”

Since 1951, Forsey’s has furnished homes and designed beautiful spaces throughout Utah.

Known for carrying the highest quality in home furnishings at affordable prices, and offering unmatched customer service, Forsey’s continues to be a one-stop destination for customers who want a truly magnificent home. Because of this dedication to service and quality, Forsey’s has fostered a reputation as one of Utah’s finest home furnishings and interior design businesses.

Forsey’s has long-standing relationships with the industry’s most highly regarded and well-known manufacturers including Century, Hickory Chair, Taylor King, Thayer Coggin, Hancock and Moore, Vanguard, Precedent and many more. Forsey’s is also the exclusive Stickley Furniture dealer for the state of Utah and has an entire second showroom dedicated to the manufacturer.

With its new versatile design center, veteran design staff, top-of-the-line product offerings and focus on exceptional service and quality, Forsey’s is a local leader in home furnishings and interior design.

EMODELING YOUR HOME can be an exciting, albeit daunting, undertaking. But when you hire Sierra Home Services, you can focus on your vision and they’ll take care of the details.

Sierra Home Services opened in 2006 in the Sierra Nevada area. For several years, the company remodeled some of the most high-end homes in Lake Tahoe and Reno. Since moving to Salt Lake City in 2013, the company has expanded its services and now pro-

vides a one-stop shop for all your remodeling needs.

“We provide complete home remodeling services including structural enhancements, room additions, engineering and architecture,” says Robert Morris, managing member. “You don’t have to source numerous trades—we’ll handle every step of the process from plumbing to electrical.” Whether your plans are to build, remodel, restore or repair, the team of engineers, architects and licensed lead technicians can help you transform your ideas into reality.

Sierra Home Services won five stars in the Best of Home Guide 2017 and is a preferred contractor for the Salt Lake City ‘Fix The Bricks’ program—the seismic upgrade program facilitated through Salt Lake City Emergency Management. “Salt Lake City is on the fault line and subject to major destruction in event of seismic event,” says Morris. “We’re doing a lot of work to make sure homes can withstand an earthquake, like tying roofs to walls to keep them vertical and bracing chimneys so they don’t topple and crash into the living spaces.”

PRO TIP Skilled labor isn’t cheap, but cheap labor isn’t skilled. Because we do everything in-house, we have full control, and that means we keep our projects on time and on budget. We’ve grown our business over the last 12 years by providing high-quality services at an affordable price.

A SECOND chance In the Salt Lake Country Club neighborhood, a team of pros breathes new life into a ramshackle mid-century residence.

e were immediate heroes of the neighborhood when everyone found out we bought the house,” says Phil Winston, co-owner of Northstar Builders about the derelict home set among the manicured streets of Salt Lake’s Country Club neighborhood.

The vacant one-story, flat-roofed home had been an eyesore on the stately block for years, a ghostly shell of what had once been a mid-century gem.

Before The Northstar team matched the addition’s new ceiling to the home’s original tongue and groove. It was originally constructed with quality timber, making this well-built home a candidate for restoration rather than a tear down.

Before Before the renovation, tattered curtains filled floor-to-ceiling windows, neglected landscaping led to a weathered cantilevered patio and a dusty carport sat empty. Interior designer Anne-Marie Barton updated the exterior with fresh features while accentuating its mid-century charm.

Before The sleek new Poliform kitchen is in the same spot as the old kitchen, but because the team removed a wall, it now opens into the great room, the dining room and entry.

“The house had incredible features, but it needed a lot of help,” Winston explains.

Cardboard boxes, broken-down appliances and deserted furnishings were piled throughout the house. To make matters worse, squatters had broken in and damaged the property. Winston, and his Northstar partner Greg Ross, donated what was worth giving, salvaged what could be reused and discarded the rest. Then they began the transformation. First up: Create an entertaining space.

“We started with the double-sided fireplace that we wanted to salvage,” Ross says.

“There were only 13 feet on each side of the

fireplace, much too narrow for a modern entertaining space with an open kitchen and dining room.” So the team extended the back of the home 20 feet to provide space for a new open great room while leaving ample area for a newly re-landscaped backyard.

Next on the list was a master suite crafted from an open carport. “This was an easy conversion because the tongue-and-groove ceiling ran throughout the home and, fortunately for us, into the carport,” Ross explains.

“The carport enclosed 26 square feet, which was the perfect size for a master bedroom suite.” Voila, carport turned master. Autos now reside in a new detached garage.

Before

Winston and Ross enlisted the help of designer Emily Foxley to refine the interior, while paying homage to home’s history. “My goal was to salvage what we could, Foxley says. The new home was a little mid-century modern, but not a pure mid-century, so we incorporated surprising touches throughout the space, starting with the entryway.” The team sanded the original entry screen and refreshed it with new paint. “I loved that we kept the railing in the entry. It needed a little love, and we raised it for code,” she explains. “The globe pendants are original, too. They were re-dipped and cleaned.”

The team’s luck remained strong. “We met with Brent Jespersen at Poliform to discuss kitchen options,” Foxley says. “Customizing that space would have meant waiting four months for a delivery from Italy. Brent allowed us to purchase his showroom pieces off the floor, which coincidentally fit perfectly inside the new space.”

One issue, however, did challenge the pros. “There are so many cool things about the home’s period that it was hard to control our spending,” Winston says. “We were like kids in a candy store.”

In the end, the team hosted an open house for neighbors and the design community that met with rave reviews. “This was really a labor of love,” Foxley says of the heroic transformation. “It’s still true to form, but now has a functional flow for modern life.”

After being cleaned and re-dipped, the original globe pendants now sparkle in the entryway, giving guests a strong first impression of midcentury heritage and charm.

“If we left it empty, we would have lost the flavor of the home,” says builder Phil Winston, who enlisted Studio McGee to outfit the revamped interior with new, midcentury-inspired furnishings.

ountain pasture or city garden. Suburban lot or sprawling estate. Regardless of a project’s location, size, style or budget, landscape designer Jayson King begins with two key considerations: the site and the client. Respect the former and

satisfy the latter, and success is a sure thing.

The owner of this single-level home near the Salt Lake Country Club wanted updated outdoor living spaces for her abode and turned to King, principal of Landform Design Group, and his team to create them. They did that—and so

Fresh paint, modified windows, and new chimney caps help to update the home while the transformed landscape dramatically visually connects the house to the street.

A low enclosure wall and planter of painted brick pair with stylish plantings to define areas of the newly leveled front yard.

Anchoring an elevated patio near the back of the property, a 12-foot -tall fireplace formed from stone features a floating limestone hearth.

A new masonry wall and row of trees provide a striking backdrop for the patio’s board-formed concrete bench inlaid with wood. The raised fire feature is formed with stone base and limestone top. Limestone steps lead to a second living area further back in the yard.

King designed large-slab limestone steps and walkways to provide flow from the front of the property, around both sides and into the back areas of the lot. There, large patios, layered plantings and a lush lawn provide year-round living spaces.

much more. “When owners look at ways to upgrade properties, they think about individual elements like fences, outdoor kitchens or points of concern, like drainage,” King says. “Our job is to think of the big picture and to create a cohesive design that brings it all together.”

When King first visited the property, he encountered an understated brick home, an outdated landscape and old vegetation that was spotty and overgrown. “It was nothing special,” he recalls. This was a redo waiting to happen. King’s goal was to transform the transitional-style dwelling with exterior updates and a modern-leaning landscape that relates to and elevates the style of the house and its grounds.

The transformation began at the curb. The designer visually connected the home and its front courtyard to the street by adding low brick walls that extend into the newly leveled front yard and form an elevated planter fronting the façade beneath its three vertical windows. “We used painted brick to link the landscape to the house and to accentuate its horizontal lines,” King explains. New plantings and a linear design add to the appeal. The breakout feature is a series of steps formed by under-lit slabs of limestone that appear to float as they lead to the front courtyard.

The homeowner requested stone rather than concrete but wanted nothing small or busy looking. King responded

with massive, warm-toned limestone slabs used to form the new hardscape throughout. “They were cut off-site, shipped to the home and then placed like enormous puzzle pieces into the landscape,” he says.

A new, horizontally detailed iron gate opens to a side yard, where a solid limestone walkway leads to the backyard. Along the side yard’s new brick wall, a screen of topiaried Japanese maple trees fills a narrow planting bed that widens as it migrates to a large covered patio newly equipped with an outdoor kitchen and built-in heaters. Steps away, a rectangular fire pit and a built-in bench anchor a handsomely furnished gathering area visible from the kitchen’s large picture window. Large limestone slabs form a garden walkway that leads to a second living area, where a tall fireplace, lounge area and large, architectural umbrellas draw visitors deeper into the yard. “The umbrellas can perform as overhead canopies or angle vertically to serve as shades,” King explains.

On the east side of the home, a new ornamental entry gate opens to a limestone walkway, masonry wall, lush plantings and vertical grain horizontal cedar fencing that unite to stylishly connect the front of the home to private outdoor living spaces.

why it works UNIFIED MATERIALS King created a cohesive look by choosing materials and design elements that visually link to the home and its style, including painted brick, horizontally oriented wood fencing and boardformed concrete.

YEAR-ROUND LIVING Heated limestone floors and paths, outdoor fire features and built-in space heaters stretch the seasons for outdoor living and entertaining.

REPETITION King established an edited palette of materials and plants that he featured repeatedly across the property to foster a sense continuity and rhythm.

GROUPED PLANTINGS King used plant groupings, from hedges of yew bushes to rows of hornbeam and Japanese maple trees to serve as living structural forms, screens and eye-catching layers that soften the hardscape of stone, concrete and brick.

SURROUND SOUND Inconspicuous speakers and an underground woofer provide level volumes of music throughout the landscape. “This eliminates the need to play music loudly in one area so that it can be heard in another,� King explains.

FOCAL POINTS From single planters and vivid orange umbrellas to fabulous fire features and inviting sitting areas, King strategically placed key elements that move the eye comfortably across the landscape and encourage movement throughout it.

King replaced the landscape’s curved forms with straight lines and square angles. A segmented walkway of limestone fronts a hedge of yews that replaced two unsightly air conditioners that King moved from the back of the home onto its roof. Board-formed concrete walls pair with painted brick masonry to link to the home and its horizontal lines visually.

A rectangular swathe of lawn extends from the lounge patio and is flanked by a new, boardformed concrete wall and hedge-fronted columnar hornbeam trees. It ends with a sunning area furnished with two chaise lounges backed by a deep red screen of Japanese maples. Layers like these add depth and interest to the gardens at every turn. Nearby, another set of stone slabs step down to a side yard detailed with a built-in bench, walkway of segmented stones and an orange, sculpture-like planter. Soft music ema-

nates from the gardens throughout the property, courtesy of an inconspicuously integrated outdoor audio system. “It connects to a smart home system,� the designer explains.

In the end, King transformed the home from ordinary to extraordinary. He provided his client with intriguing outdoor living areas, as she wished, as well as gardens and daring details that merge to make the property, front and back, much more than the sum of its masterfully designed parts.

hen it comes to finding her dream house, you might call designer Dorothy Day Lee something of a house whisperer. Take her previous residence, for example: a midcentury modern dwelling in Salt Lake’s St. Mary’s neighborhood. It was love at first sight, but the home wasn’t for sale. Lee made repeated phone calls to the owners, and she was so convinced she would live there one day she even took the liberty of enjoying takeout dinners on the front porch of the vacant property. “I basically just stalked the home,” she says, laughing. Her persistence paid off—she eventually got the keys and

completely remodeled the property. It was home sweet home for four years, but she started itching to work on a new project.

Lee called upon her friend and real estate agent Cody Derrick, owner of CityHomeCollective (CHC), to help her sell the St. Mary’s house and begin her quest for a new spot to hang her handbag. When the duo visited a unique Spanish-style home, Lee fell head over heels all over again. “This home is one of the most interesting examples of midcentury modern, Spanish-style architecture in the entire state,” says Derrick. “I knew that it was the right fit for Dorothy. She’s unique

and likes things to be different, but the home still kept in line with the era that she likes.”

The 4,000 square-foot casa was practically untouched, and Lee was excited to dive into the remodel. Cue the design team. Susannah Holmberg, a senior designer at CHC, worked in tandem with Lee to feather her new nest. “The goal was to play up both the mid-century modern and the Spanish elements,” explains Holmberg. They also wanted to bring the outdoors inside—the lush natural surroundings and the creek in back were important design elements to the home.

To marry modern design and Spanish style in the kitchen, the duo paired sleek black cabinets with a terracotta and black-and-white marble wall tile. Outdated appliances received an upgrade, and a custom-built island made with layers of marble, copper, and walnut now takes center stage.

They hung organically shaped, handwoven pendant lights above the island and plastered the walls for texture. A dark herringbone ceramic floor tile accented with a copper inlay adds depth underfoot.

In the living room, they mixed bohemian furniture and modern lighting with a Spanish-inspired palette of white walls, stained wood beams, and dark herringbone wood flooring. The large room features a dining area and a sitting area. For the latter, they chose a zebra-print rug, Lucite chairs, an antique settee and a pair of gold cherry-shaped light fixtures sourced by Holmberg. For Lee, they’re the cherry on top. “They totally made the room,” she says. “They’re weird

TAKEN BY SURPRISE 1. “From the very beginning when you walk into the front courtyard and the pool, it’s one discovery after another,” says Cody Derrick, who helped Lee find the property.

“And then it’s surprise after surprise in the home.”

2. A pair of carved wood columns flanking the kitchen fireplace boost the room’s Spanish vibe. The columns and all of the doors in the home were sourced from Seret & Sons, a showroom of antique treasures that Lee discovered in Santa Fe. 3. In the entry hallway, the design team commissioned a mural by artist Andrew Moncrief. “We had him paint it in a primitive, naïf style,” says Holmberg. “The hope was to create a home that was almost a museum of original, unique pieces.”

4. In the master bathroom, Lee added a steam shower, a marble tub, and a trough-style sink that she designed. The sink features two whimsical jackalope heads built into the wall for the water faucets.

The pool in the front courtyard adds to the allure of the overall property. “It’s a killer lot tucked away in the trees,” says Holmberg.

and unexpected. The living room is probably my favorite room in the home. It looks like a rock star lives there.”

Another rock star worthy element? The pool Lee added to the front courtyard. To ensure privacy, Lee swapped the existing front gate for large antique wood doors. Rather than stepping into the home through them, you step into a courtyard oasis. The house itself is accessed through the courtyard via a second pair of doors painted peacock-blue. “I like that element of surprise,” says Lee. “It makes the home more of a secret.”

In total, the remodel took about three years to

complete, and Lee couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. “The house has soul—it has a real personality and depth,” she says. Derrick agrees.

“There are parts of the home that are flashy and gorgeous, and parts that are deep-rooted and soul-connected,” he says. But Lee enjoyed the process of remodeling so much, that just like with her previous St. Mary’s dwelling, she soon started itching for a new project. So she sold the Spanish house last fall and moved on to her next dream home. “What I love about remodels is they teach you about life,” she says. “You tear things down and you rebuild. It’s a great metaphor.”

‘It’s been said that the entry of a home is like an appetizer. It gives you a taste of what’s to come,” says Jessica Bennett, design principal of Alice Lane Home Collection.

hen an Orem couple decided to build their ideal family home in the city’s gated Berkshire enclave, they craved a sanctuary that comfortably caters to an active clan of eight with personalized spaces, contemporary style and surprising treatments, from room to room. In the end, that’s exactly what they got thanks to a team of pros that included Alice Lane Home Interior Design, Think Architecture and Magleby Construction.

“From the very start, this was a home designed to be celebrated and enjoyed,” says Jessica Bennett, design principal at Alice Lane Home Interior Design. From the outside, the 22,000-square-foot house resembles a traditional Hamptons estate, while inside, fearlessly contemporary spaces abound. The intrigue begins at the entry where a broad, white oak-and-glass door—dressed with bold linear hardware—is flanked by large panes of glass. The door’s design is unexpected, but it is nothing compared to the surprise waiting inside.

Stepping into the light-filled foyer, one is dazzled by a glamorous, high-octane décor anchored by a graphically patterned marble floor. “Our client wanted a black-and-white checkered floor because he loved the one his stylish, fake-eyelashwearing aunt had in her entry,” Bennett explains.

Her team put a twist on the traditional checked motif by designing a graphic, “irreverent” pattern cut from large-scale marble tiles. “Naturally, we had to inject the space with steroids and do it our way,” she says with a laugh. The show-stopping floor not only infuses the entry with bravado, but also, as Bennett tells it, it established a “tuxedo moment” from which the design team could draw a sense of formality and sophisticated-yet-striking design for the rest the house.

The nearby powder room is a case in point: black and copper Cole & Son wallpaper creates a dramatic backdrop for a shimmering tiered waterfall glass chandelier, framed black crystals and exquisite Kallista for Kohler fixtures. “The black space is the perfect answer coming off the black-and-white entry,” Bennett explains.

The design team filled other rooms with similar statements of style and swagger. In the dining room, for example, a pair of Aerin Lauder Mill pendants hangs from a silver-leafed vaulted ceiling above a zebrawood table surrounded by 14 Milo Baughman chairs. “It was important to the owner that we include these modern chairs,” Bennett says. “He grew up in a home filled with furniture by the designer, who was also a family friend.”

A high-contrast palette shot with shades of blue originates in the entry, flows into the dining room and repeats in the large, light-toned living room area.

There, a circular turret houses a grand piano staged like a jet-black sculpture. The turret’s cylindrical shape informs the gentle curves and rounded forms found throughout the room. Among them are the custom

ceiling trim detail and luxurious furnishings, including kidney-shaped coffee tables and a barrel-backed chaise. “They take the edge off the design and soften the space,” Bennett explains.

A more casual vibe infuses the family room and adjoining open-plan kitchen. Shades of warm gray enrich the kitchen’s two-toned cabinetry. Caesarstone and classic marble clad two distinctively different islands: A waterfall design defines the food prep island while a walnut base anchors another created for serving and casual dining. “It would be so boring to let the islands be identical twins,” Bennett says, “so we tricked them up to give them separate identities.” A dressed-up pantry boasts a patterned concrete floor, and across the kitchen, a sliding barn door opens to a large homework room that elevates the dynamic kitchen’s functionality, style and fave-status in the busy family home.

When the parents crave a little solitude, a master suite located on its own level satisfies the need for privacy. It

also caters to the husband’s love of purple. “Because this area is removed from the rest of the home, we could treat it a little differently,” says Bennett referring to the black walls and vivid violet chairs in the suite’s office as well as the tranquil lavender canopy bed and lounge chairs in the bedroom. “It’s a luxury to have a grown-up zone when you’re raising six kids.”

Thoughtful, one-of-a-kind design takes precedence throughout. The house is large, to be sure, but the designers worked masterfully to make each room unique.

“Big homes can be boring, so it’s important to drill down and consider the function of each space while creating special moments,” Bennett says. “That way, everything doesn’t have the same look.” That’s an approach that helped shape the extraordinary interior—one that thrills its owners everyday as they live large in the high-style family home. “They wanted it to be extraordinary, and we wanted that too,” Bennett adds. “Helping to create this home was an opportunity of a lifetime.”

nne-Marie Barton knows how to make an entrance. For proof, one only needs to step through the front doors of her recent project, a remarkably remodeled Park City home. Once a space completely open to the home’s great room, the new, spatially defined entry captivates with a dazzling art screen through which glimpses of the home’s updated interior and chic, new décor flow. “We wanted to introduce the unexpected from the get-go,” says Barton, principal of AMB Design.

Located in Park City’s Glenwild community, the home boasts an enviable location affording spectacular mountain views that loom large through broad walls of windows. Barton and her client knew they wanted to complement rather than compete with the vistas as they transformed the interior’s mountain style from predictable to sophisticated, warm and unmistakably modern. “The shell gave us great opportunities,” says Barton, who teamed with architect Michael Upwall and contractor Steve Dubell, who masterfully executed the transformation throughout.

From the start, the client brought homebuilding know-how, a craving for the extraordinary and a certain avant-garde attitude to the project. Case in point: Rosie—a floral-headed wood sculpture—looks into

the entry from an end-of-the-hall inset where a coat closet originally existed. The hall, once dark and dreary, is now window-lined and light-filled. Its openness accentuates the sculpture’s head-turning presence.

“The homeowner allowed us to dream big and go out of bounds,” Barton says. “It was so liberating and fun for everyone involved.”

The transformed entry opens to a large, glass-walled great room that flows beneath a soaring curved ceiling and is comprised of the main living, dining and kitchen areas. Barton updated the existing stone fireplace with

a dark steel facing and surround. The same steel detail trims a spectacular dropped wood ceiling devised by architect Michael Upwall. “The suspended ceiling helps to warm and ground the space,” says Barton, who furnished the sitting area below with a Holly Hunt sectional, Jean De Merry ottoman and a vintage Laverne cocktail table, all set on Warp & Weft rugs. “We layered the rugs to instill a little visual tension,” Barton says.

In the adjoining dining area, Barton suspended a light fixture comprised of hand-blown glass tubes above a custom walnut-and-brass table. Above the nearby

An Ochre antique mirror layered with art by Jill Barton rests on a custom console. Nearby, a uniquely designed island anchors the kitchen space beneath Roll & Hill pendants. Barton cleverly hid the hood in cabinets above the range. “This kitchen is all about restraint,” she says.

TOP RIGHT: Integrated into the upper cabinets, an open shelf of stained wood displays a small collection of glasses and tableware.

BOTTOM RIGHT: At the island’s end, a “block” of walnut appears to shoulder the slab of light-toned, honed stone. The wood also clads the underside of stone that frames the counter seating area.

kitchen island, reflective origami-shaped pendants showcase a decidedly dissimilar style. “The lights don’t compete but are both surprises,” she explains. The remodeled kitchen, while “quiet and sublime,” is riddled with similarly unexpected and intriguing features.

The island, for example, boasts a wood “block” that extends beyond the light-toned, honed stone at one end and a waterfall stone detail on the other. A pocket-doored breakfast bar, dressed with over-scaled nickel handles, opens to easily accessed appliances, and a stained-wood shelf notched into upper cabinets displays a small vignette of clustered dishes. While some features are eye-catching and others discreet, all are impressive design elements. Perhaps most notable is what is not visible at all.

“We hid the hood in the cabinets above the range,” says Barton, who rejected an obvious hood to enable the island’s unique design to prevail.

Barton didn’t save all her surprises for the public areas of the home. Far from it.

Large-scale floral wallpaper animates a guest bedroom, vibrant blue encaustic cement tile enlivens the laundry room, and flourishes of luxurious, sophisticated treatments elevate the style and comfort of the master suite. There, mountain views surround a freestanding tub and tear-like lights hanging above.

MASTERING THE DETAILS 1. Brass trims the mirrors and the window in the master bathroom. Cabinetry by Premier Woodwork & Design.

2. “Wallcovering changes the spirit of any room,” Barton says, as proven by this bedroom enlivened with Lotus Mustard paper by Harlequin.

3. Narrow brass shelving flanks the right side of the master bedroom’s floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace.

4. A tufted bench uniquely merges with a center island in the multipurpose mudroom/laundry. Encaustic cement tile from European Marble & Granite brightens the room.

A floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace warms the serene bedroom, and oversized plum blossom patterns span the wall of an ultra-chic office area. Perhaps most memorably, the art screen showcased in the entry makes a second appearance in the suite, making one fall in love with the unique feature all over again.

It all adds up to an engaging interior that is refined and understated, but full of memorable mo-

ments. “It was a mountain home begging for a sophisticated transformation ,” Barton recalls. Thanks to her deft use of detail and passion for compelling design, that’s exactly what it received.

ON THE LAMB We may associate lamb with the arrival of spring, but here and throughout the world, we savor it year round.

BY M A RY BROW N M ALOU F PHOTOS BY A DA M FI NK LE

L

ast year, the Australian Lamb Board caused a big flap with an advertisement featuring Jesus, Ganesha, Moses, Zeus and other deities sitting together and enjoying a lamb feast. The ad caused a lot of controversy, but the message was clear, no matter how you took the medium: Lamb is one of the most-consumed meats in the world. And one of the most symbolic. We eat it in spring to herald the fresh season, and we crave it year round.

Lamb chops at Saffron Valley are served in a Chettinad curry along with a semolina cake and spice-roasted vegetables.

DINING IN & OUT

World of flavors All lamb-eating cultures have added signature spices that make the meat their own.

Greek: oregano and lemon

Lamb Seekh Kebabs from Saffron Valley in SLC.

Indian: coriander

Lamb in Translation Lavanya Mahate, owner of Saffron Valley, enlightens us about lamb in Indian food.

“INDIA IS A DIVERSE COUNTRY with over 1.3 billion people. Nearly 80 percent of the population is Hindu, and Muslims are the largest minority at around 15 percent,” says Lavanya Mahate, owner of Saffron Valley. “Hindus refrain from eating beef, and Muslims do not eat pork.

So it’s no wonder that chicken is the most popular choice of meat followed by goat and lamb, frequently called mutton in India.

Americans are still wary of eating goat, so lamb usually replaces it on menus in Indian restaurants in America, though goat is being more accepted gradually.

Although goats and lambs are both slaughtered when young, are classified as red meat and are closely related, they are two different species. In India, goat meat ranges in color from light pink to bright red. It is better suited to long, slow cooking over low temperatures to preserve the moisture and break down the collagen in the meat.

A sheep in its first year is a lamb. The meat varies in color from a tender pink to a pale red.

In general, the darker the color, the older the animal. There is more fat on lamb, fewer bones, and a less gamy flavor than goat.

Warm spices such as cardamom, cloves and cinnamon are used with lamb, as are fragrant ones such as fennel seeds and saffron along with the famous Kashmiri red chilies, ginger and garlic that add great depth and complexity to lamb dishes. Lamb is often braised and slowcooked in yogurt or milk to cut the gamy smell, replacing it with a creamy and aromatic taste.”

Chinese: cumin

Syrian: zaatar

French: rosemary, garlic

Lebanese: allspice

Pasture to Plate

A Utah tradition

JAMIE GILMORE’S FAMILY has been raising lamb for generations, but in 2001, he and his wife Linda started marketing Morgan Valley Lamb to Utah’s burgeoning restaurant scene. The sweet organic meat became a chef’s staple and the family story, a media darling.

In 2012, Gilmore’s family decided they wanted to sell the ranch, and it looked like the end of the line for lamb.

Then Wes Crandall, owner of another heritage Utah ranch, Jones Creek Beef, stepped in.

Crandall’s family used to raise lambs, and he was determined not to let another old family business disappear. “I got together with Jamie and offered to run Morgan Valley Lamb as part of Jonas Creek, preserving the brand and the continuing the philosophy of raising all-natural lamb—no hormones, no steroids. Jamie still has a hand in it.”

Lamb fell out of popularity for awhile, says Crandall, but people are rediscovering it in the context of other cuisines.

Morgan Valley supplies lamb for shwarmas and kabobs, lamb belly and lamb bacon (great for the Jewish community), and bratwurst as well as chorizo and sausage with herbes de Provence— even the merguez sausages used in the Machine Gun sandwiches at Bruges Waffles & Frites. Morganvalleylamb.com

In Praise of the Butterflied Leg Slow-braised shank and seared lamb chops are the most popular cuts of lamb, but please, reconsider the leg. We don’t cook big cuts of meat as often as we used to—Sunday roast lamb with mint sauce and peas is rare now. And unlike Greek restaurants and tavernas, most of us don’t have a rotisserie grill. But ask your butcher to butterfly a leg, removing the bone and flattening the meat so you can grill it like a steak. Marinate it—olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and rosemary— and grill it for about 15 minutes per side to form a crust, then grill until a thermometer registers 145F for medium rare.

SPENCER’S 255 S. West Temple, SLC, 801-238-4748 Lavish double cut lamb chops rubbed with Moroccan spices, sided with tahini-potato puree and preserved peppers. Order two chops for $42 or three for $55.

MANOLI’S 402 E. Harvey Milk Blvd., 801-532-3760 Little lamb riblets are called paidakia here—grilled and topped with a caper chimichurri and sea salt. $14 FIREWOOD ON MAIN 306 Main Street, Park City, 435-252-9900 Chef John Murcko serves a firegrilled lamb chop on chicory salad extravagantly accompanied by a confit duck leg on cassoulet.

Of course, rosemary is involved. $43

Where to buy local lamb You can buy whole and half lambs, as well as other lamb products directly from morganvalleylamb.com. Black Cherry Market and Liberty Heights Fresh sell Morgan Valley lamb and lamb products.
