We absolutely love working with clients that are well traveled and have lots of personality as we get to showcase their story through good design. Project William Luck was one such project. Our clients had impeccable taste and a great eye for design, and together we took their beautiful new home and injected it with lots of character & style.
They had chosen some great finishes for their newly constructed home with grey hardwood, black kitchen cabinets, huge windows and a clean layout. Since moving in they found their old furniture was not in proportion to the larger rooms and wanted a completely new design. That's where we came in. Extensive research to find out their preferences led to a spot on design presentation. Even the client said, "We asked for a modern and warm theme. Lynda took the time to truly understand our style and what we liked and then came up with design options for each room. We did not need to make revisions as she got it right the first time. Not only was Lynda & Dhiraj great to work with professionally but they are just good people and was a pleasure to deal with them both and have them in our house". awwwww isn't she just the sweetest. We love our clients!!
The front door opens into the dining room and we wanted it to make quite the impact. Our clients pre-existing gorgeous live edge dining table was paired with modern host chairs in white linen and black sculptural side chairs. A stunning credenza and lighting brought the glam to the space. Since our clients love to travel we added a vintage map of London, UK on one wall as over sized art.
TIP: With art people its either go big or go home!
TIP: Turning a hallway wall into a gallery wall makes so much sense as it gives people a chance to mill around the house and is a great conversation starter.
The clients pre existing breakfast room dining set needed layers which were added through the warm red rug, linen drapes and stunning black & gold pendant. Since it was just off the black and white kitchen that shot of red was the perfect choice to bring some color into the space.
The builders grade kitchen was already a good looking space with black cabinets, white counter tops and grey tiled floors. We added to it with dramatic black and white encaustic tiles, a new range hood and lights in the corner cabinet. Those tiles tho! bringing the right amount of pattern to the space. At this point we knew we had a winner - our client was making all the right choices. We love when this happens!
The living room is a classy combination of brown, black and cream with lots of eclectic items like moose horns, bison art and books.............lots of books. I love decorating with books and use every opportunity I get to add piles of books. A stunning black and gold ottoman sits at the center of the room flanked by a soft leather brown couch and modern armchairs in cream & gold. Stunning light fixtures in each room act as the icing on the cake, and we added a modern floor lamp here.
TIP: Different lighting options bring ambiance to a room from ceiling lights to table and floor lamps, letting you create a moody vibe in your space.
This client was truly like my design sister, we had the same taste in artwork, furniture, accessories and she was so trusting and open to new ideas. The perfect client in a nutshell. I know I sound like a broken record but we really are very lucky to work with the most amazing people who are fun and allow us creative freedom.
