Making this house a home fell to the talented hands of Nan Wright, owner and creative principal of Wright Interior Group, and Caitlin Heath, associate creative director.

“It was very gratifying to work with previous clients of ours who gave us creative license with this new home build,” says Heath. “They had specific needs for their growing family and we were able to accommodate those needs, all while providing a super stylish interior.”

Using a few of their signature design features, Wright and Heath treated each ceiling as an individual work of art and created flooring designs and wall treatments that mixed textures, patterns, colors, and styles in a way that set the home’s design apart from any of its neighbors. u Above: The tongue-and-groove ceiling is enhanced with maple trim and mica wallcovering.

Embroidered drapes are

“From the beginning of the project, we wanted to make their home special and unique to them,” says Wright, who emphasizes they develop an individual design style for each project.

“No two clients are the same. No two homes should be either.”

Matthew Kragh, president of MHK Architecture & Planning, and the skilled professionals of his firm, came prepared.

They brought with them to the design of this 3,180 square feet under air, three bedroom, threeand-a-half bath home in the Landings at Bear’s Paw, expertise gained designing more than 600 Old Florida style homes in Old Naples and surrounding neighborhoods. u

“We understand the lifestyle that suits this area so well that we have been dubbed ‘The Florida Architect,’ ” says Kragh. “The perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living areas is what sets such designs apart.”

Kragh and his team at MHK Architecture & Planning designed most of the prototypes of homes at the Landings at Bear’s Paw, but happily made design adjustments to this British West Indies-style design for the homeowner, who bought it before the model was even completed.

The builder, Bill Fox, worked with Kragh on previous projects and found that those experiences meant he and Kragh worked instinctively well together.

“Combined with homeowners who were gracious and receptive and a pair of interior designers who had great vision and communicated so well, made the team project a delightful one,” says Fox. n

The addition of the Strata Mist Travertine cladding from DeMarco Tile installed vertically at the home’s entry offers a contemporary multi-dimensional look unique to the neighborhood in this British West Indies home. The mitered roof tiles in shades of dark gray and composite wood-look metal doors on the three-bay garage offer contrast to the crisp white exterior. Bahamian shutters, decorative corbels, custom florals, and landscape design by Architectural Land Design make a tropical statement.
