Highland Park Hideaway
Complete Design
This client needed a complete overhaul. We knocked out a wide opening in between the home’s living room and the family room creating a spacious passageway for entertaining. An absolute must for this family. There were some elements that the client wanted to keep. For example, the living room coffee table was something that they did not want to part with. We worked with it and made the solid stone square less imposing by incorporating strong simple shapes mixed with other more delicate shapes and threw in a mix of patterned fabrics. The result is a perfect balance of shape, form, weight and texture. The family room coffee table was another must keep. We had it refinished in a rich chocolatey brown. One of my favorite aspect of this home is the floor color. It’s a custom Grayge that compliments all the fabrics and woods. The banister and balusters was also a redo. We stained the banister to match the floor. The client chose to keep some of the mid century elements of the home like the soffit that runs along the edges of the living room ceiling.
