create calm, understated spaces rooted in natural materials, the team’ s versatility extends far beyond muted palettes. At the opposite end of the design spectrum, another recent project embraces bold color, expressive finishes, and an unmistakably eclectic personality.
“ We recently worked on a really fun, new century modern house. The home is very eccentric – around 6000 square feet built on an old orchard farm – and carries a true boutique feel, with vibrant colors, layered textures, and elevated details in the carpentry,” Sam describes.“ The designer is very much into fun color schemes, so it was definitely one of the spunkier houses that we’ ve done. The house combines a mix of rich wood tones with bold color in the cabinetry, which brings contrast and depth to the space. There is some colordrenching in this house: there was a room or two where we did an immersive wash of one color, but in different shades to give off a‘ moody’ feel. There are also lots of different wallpaper features in the house that give some tropical influence. It just goes to show that we’ re able to take on whatever style our owners are looking for.”
