SÉGOLÈNE GROS AND HER HUSBAND, EXECUTIVE CHEF JEAN-CHRISTOPHE GROS,

FREQUENTLY

TRAVELED

TO

SCOTTSDALE FROM THEIR HOME IN FRANCE BECAUSE OF THE WARM AND WELCOMING COMMUNITY AND BEAUTIFUL SCENERY. Each time they came, their stay became increasingly extended, until eventually, they decided to bring the cuisine and comforts of their home to Scottsdale permanently.

"In 2015 we packed up our family and relocated to Scottsdale. We had a hotel and restaurant in France and wanted to bring our family's passion for food to this area," Ségolène says.

Voila French Bistro is in its third year and has enhanced the culinary scene by combining delicious and unique cuisine based on family recipes and inspired by their new home in Scottsdale.

"My husband started in the kitchen when he was 16 years old, then worked in high-end hotels. He studied with several chefs and brought his authentic and wellcrafted dishes to Voila."

Traditional French dishes with a special touch are on hand Tuesdays through Saturdays at Voila for both lunch and dinner. From La Bouillabaisse—served with scallops, shrimp, mussels, cod, salmon, monkfish and branzino—to homemade duck foie gras, each dish is lovingly prepared by Jean-Christophe in the hopes of making all of his customers regulars.

"We feel the Scottsdale community is wonderful. We had the opportunity to talk with Americans about French cuisine when we visited. We have seen an evolution; they seem very curious about the cuisine and the territory," Ségolène says. "We have several regular customers who love dishes such as the Quiche Lorraine, which is light and easy to enjoy. Special dishes, like mussels, which are known in our region, are meals that people appreciate. My husband is quite passionate about his seafood dishes."

One Sunday a month, Voila opens on Sundays for a special wine-paired dinner, which takes place on March 10 this month.

The special three-course menu is $69 per person, and reservations are available.

Voila offers both indoor dining as well as a covered patio.

Ségolène says the decision to lay new roots in Scottsdale was a simple one.

North Scottsdale Lifestyle | March 2019

WHEN IT COMES TO APPROACHING A HOME'S LOOK AND FEEL, CANDELARIA

DESIGN

STANDS THAT COHESIVE AMBIANCE THAT BEGINS OUTDOORS AND FILTERS TO THE INTERIOR IS KEY. From color palettes and door and window design to blending textures and materials, choosing a style for the home can determine how items are chosen and how architecture is approached, leaving the owner with the custom look they crave and the popular trends they want incorporated.

"Three trends for the coming year are the transitional, modern farmhouse and Mediterranean transitional," says

Your personal financial goals deserve a personal approach from a DC Ranch neighbor.

Mark Candelaria, owner of Candelaria Designs. "We pull from many inspirations to achieve these looks for our clients as well as taking the essence of these trends and implementing them in custom ways to fit the needs and tastes of each homeowner."

TR ANSITIONAL The idea of a “transitional” design is taking a traditional style—whatever it might be—and editing it to modernize the style without losing the feel. To accomplish this, the form and proportions have to be spot-on to the original traditional style but then you modernize that form, holding on to enough of the details of the traditional style to make it “transitional.” If you go too far, it can mirror contemporary. Mark relates it to cooking, as a pinch here or

there of a spice can change the flavor.

Charm is key in this style, so holding onto it in the door, window and even fireplace design is important. Off-white gray and wood tones with minimally detailed doors and cabinets, offset by colored or stained concrete floors or reclaimed bleached woods, are elements to include.

THE MODERN FARMHOUSE The inspiration for this concept comes from the original indigenous farmhouses around the country. Mark notes that he enjoys visits to friends in the Midwest, as it allows him to soak in the simplicity and authenticity of this style. He then replicates it while keeping the soul of the traditional farmhouse. Lofty spaces with an industrial vibe means a clean look, as if the farmhouse has been adapted to a living quarter but not erased completely. White and natural wood tones, clean and simple cabinetry and doors with minimal detail and reclaimed wood floors are aspects of this design that are mainstays.Â

MEDITERRANEAN TRANSITIONAL Rural Mediterranean, Formal Mediterranean and even Southwest/Spanish Colonial homes with a transitional twist are very much still a trend in design. The ingredients of the underlying inspirations for traditional style are again being simplified to include a Tuscan flare. Fresh, light and bright elements make the difference, as they contrast with traditional style. Folding and pocketed doors connect the inside to the outside easily with this design, and the use of repurposed and salvaged materials of the traditional style bond all aspects together.

Cream, white and wood tones, along with herringbone, chevron or travertine in a random pattern, are touches that set this style apart from its more traditional counterparts.

Ta l i e s i n We s t CONTINUES TO BE A SCOTTSDALE STAPLE THAT COMBINES CULTURE, ART AND ARCHITECTURE

ATOP THE MOUNTAINS IN NORTH SCOTTSDALE IS A SPRAWLING PROPERTY WITH SWEEPING VIEWS AND CAPTIVATING ARCHITECTURE. Once the winter residence of famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, Taliesin West has been a point of interest in the area since it was built in 1937.

Wright decided he wanted a more permanent winter residence in Arizona, and he acquired some acreage of raw, rugged desert in the foothills of the McDowell Mountains in Scottsdale. Here he and the Taliesin Fellowship began the construction of Taliesin West as a winter camp, a bold new endeavor for desert living where he tested design innovations, structural ideas and building details that responded to the dramatic desert setting. An interesting point is that Wright and the fellowship established migration patterns between Wisconsin and Arizona, which the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture continues to this day.

Historical View of Taliesin West from 1937 when it was first built.

The view at Taliesin West was critical to its success. In the 1940s, Wright waged a battle against overhead power lines on aesthetic grounds. In the late 1940s when power lines appeared within the view of Taliesin West, Wright wrote President Truman demanding they be buried; it was a losing battle. So, he “turned his back on the valley,” moving the entrance to the rear of the main building.

The Drafting Room is utilized today by the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture. The school was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 and was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1982. It was from this room that Wright designed such famous landmarks as the Guggenheim and ASU Gammage.

North Scottsdale Lifestyle | March 2019

It is easy to revel in the appearance of the organic architectural approach to the buildings at Taliesin West. It is deeply connected to the desert in many facets and was built and maintained almost entirely by Wright and his apprentices, making it among the most personal of his creations.

Today, the School of Architecture at Taliesin (formerly the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture) builds architects of the future by offering comprehensive study toward a professional Master of Architecture degree. The program is designed for students who thrive in a multifaceted environment focusing on rigorous design, critical thinking and hands-on learning.

Students who are privileged to study at the campus can take direction from the 70-year career Wright left behind.

He became a master of his craft, creating no less than 12 of the Architectural Record’s 100 most important buildings of the century. Wright's houses, offices, churches, schools, skyscrapers, hotels and museums are as diverse and ingenious as he was.

Preservation is at the heart of everything the Wright

Foundation does. They are committed to thorough preservation of Taliesin West, which includes significant collections of art, artifacts, furnishings, prototypes, personal effects and more. Along with such thoughtful steps, Taliesin West encourages visitors from around the world to take a tour of the property and celebrate the life and work of such a creative legend. Taliesin West is open to the public for a broad range of themed tours, as well as summer workshop programs for children that tap into the diverse aspects of architecture and design, from photography to building a dream space.

With an impressive history and rich future ahead, Taliesin West is a mainstay in the community that offers design truly fit for the desert that inspired it. As Wright put it, "The good building is not one that hurts the landscape, but one which makes the landscape more beautiful than it was before the building was built."

A CLEAN, MODERN DESIGN THAT ENCOMPASSES SOFT, EARTHY TONES IS KEY IN SUCCESSFUL DESIGN OF A CUSTOM HOME. "The goal is to create a contemporary look without an industrial feel," says Scott Pfeiffer, owner of Sonora West Development.

Such is the case with the beautifully crafted property at 19008 N. 98th Way in Scottsdale.

This four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom, 5,876-square-foot abode sits on .63 acres.

Built by Sonora West Development and sharply designed by Laura Keyhoe Designs and Scott, the property boasts forwardthinking textured tilework, keeping the

appearance unique and beautiful.

"Tiling has become much more than just color variation and is moving toward three-dimensional textures," Scott says.

"Showing a dichotomy in materials is something we pride ourselves on to achieve distinctive looks as well, such as the kitchen pictured; we went with a traditional brick, coupled with ultra-modern cabinetry. This gives the room an edgy feel."

Scott says that beginning a custom home project starts with inspiration.
