Smart Shades

A well-dressed window adds the perfect finishing touch to any decor. With an extensive portfolio of innovative shade designs, gorgeous fabrics, beautiful colors and specialty options like top-down/bottom-up, Hunter Douglas invites one to embrace creativity.

Natural sunlight adds life to a room, but left unchecked, it can cause fading and damage to flooring and furnishings. Shades uniquely designed with sheer fabric facings actually diffuse raw sunlight, casting a beautiful glow across the space while providing UV protection.

Up to 30 percent of a home’s heating and cooling energy can escape through windows.

With their exclusive cellwithin-a-cell design, Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades provide superior room insulation, helping to reduce your energy consumption and utility costs.

With PowerView® automation, shades can be scheduled to automatically reposition throughout the day to create the perfect balance of light, privacy and insulation … morning, noon and night.

And it easily integrates with other whole-home automation systems.

SUITE VERSATILITY For those who love to explore the art of cooking, performance is important.

But so is flexibility. Signature Kitchen Suite combines them both once more, with its new 24-Inch Undercounter Convertible Refrigerator/Freezer Drawers.

The two drawers offer six modes: pantry, fridge, bar, seafood, meat or freezer.

When anything and everything can rest at its ideal temperature, one never has to worry about the quality of ingredients come prep and cook time.

The brand has also recently launched its Undercounter Dual Zone Wine Refrigerator and new Combination, Single and Double Wall Ovens with Steam-Combi, as well as a 36-inch All-Gas Pro Range and Rangetop.

It continues to grow its full suite of possibilities for the Technicurean.

The clients’ modern art collection sets the stage for an architect’s reimagining of their 1950s Bay Harbor Islands home.

Layers of minimalist colors and natural textures infuse a family’s Palm Beach residence with a Southern California style.

Cuban heritage inspires the works of a South Miami artist who incorporates collaged materials into her expressive paintings.

A designer unites the opposing aesthetics of a husband and wife for a warm, elegant look in their Coral Gables home.

LIA SHIN, Design Director C + H Interiors Atlanta, GA 770.455.9554 candhinteriorsatl.com candhinteriors

“I’m noticing an increased desire to see objects in the most refined and purified ways, using palettes of white and neutrals that swirl with botanicals and are infused with natural materials.

The perfect blend of the inner and outer world captures the essence of this moment. It’s also an approach that can sway traditional or contemporary.”

Shin’s Atlanta Market Anticipation: “I love to shop at JDouglas every market, for the amazing lines it represents. The showroom always looks so polished!”

VARIETY IN THE VISUAL

ASHLEY ROSS, Founder and Principal Muse Noire Interiors Charlotte, NC 704.625.6237 musenoire.com muse.noire.interiors

“Visual texture evokes curiosity, encouraging the viewer to interact with something beyond the sense of sight. After 18-plus months of socially distancing ourselves, I am excited to discover this trend that makes me want to get up close and personal with design! I’m seeing this in cane backing, hair-on-hides in the most unusual places and a sculptural approach to everyday furniture—that is no longer limited to accessories.”

Ross’ Atlanta Market Anticipation: “This will be my first AmericasMart event, and I am thrilled to visit new showrooms, but I’m equally excited to find out if Leftbank Art carries the party over from High Point to Atlanta!”

SANCTUARY IS IN

BOLD POPS OF COLOR

“Now, more than ever, your home needs to be your haven. Whether it be a functional nook where your children are inspired to both work and play, an outdoor living space that is an extension of your home or a peaceful spot to which you can retreat for some much-needed solace at the end of a busy day, being intentional about creating spaces that speak to your needs and designs is essential.”

“Go big or go home, I say! Bold pops of color are making an appearance everywhere. From case goods to lighting, splashes of brighter shades are making a statement in every facet of the industry.

One of my personal favorite ways to add it into a space is through lighting. Not only is it an attention grabber, but also, it can act as a piece of art. It’s like a two-for-one special!”

Standing beside artist Will Ryman’s towering LongHouse 6 sculpture at LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton.

Full Bloom

Pamela Jaccarino VP, Editor in Chief @pamelajaccarino

LUXESOURCE.COM

photo: lena yaremenko.

This past summer, I had the pleasure of visiting LongHouse Reserve, a 16-acre reserve and sculpture garden in East Hampton founded by the brilliant textile designer, Jack Lenor Larsen.

Amongst the more than 60 contemporary sculptures, I was particularly taken with artist Will Ryman’s colossal, and fanciful LongHouse 6, an improbable, exaggerated 24-foot-tall cluster of six roses and fallen petals rendered in stainless steel, resin and painted in cadmium red light. The rose remains an idealized symbol for romance, natural beauty and perfection. Yet, Ryman designed his petals with bumps and irregularities. You can clearly detect its hand-worked quality, and his hint to embrace fading beauty, ephemera and the temporary nature of all things. As we forge ahead into the end of another “strange” year for the world, I hope that you will seek out and embrace beauty in all its forms. For artistry and design will always be in bloom, one way or another.

Health, Wellness, Sustainability, Innovation MAKING IT EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE HAPPIER, HEALTHIER LIVES. The kitchen has long been known as the heart of the home.

Perhaps that is because it keeps the home, and all who live within it, nourished. And perhaps the appliances central to its design have a far nobler purpose than merely storing, cooking and cleaning. That is certainly what Beko believes.

The brand feels that the perfect appliance can empower people to lead healthier lives, while technological advancements—like the use of recycled materials and carbon-neutral manufacturing—help the planet to be healthier, too. The Beko

team is deeply committed to technologies that perform at the lowest levels of energy with the smallest impact on the earth’s resources, because of its overriding belief that you can’t lead a healthy life without a healthy planet. In business for more than 66 years, with products sold in 140 countries, 28 production facilities and 40,000 employees globally, Beko has been a household name in Europe for many years.

But recently, the brand has expanded into the United States, bringing its commitment to health and wellness to even more homes.

Preserve Your Produce, Preserve the Planet Imagine keeping your fruits and veggies fresh for up to 30 days, reducing trips to the store and pressure on your grocery budget.

Best of all, with less food going bad and ending up in a landfill, it benefits Mother Earth as well. It almost sounds too good to be true, but Beko’s EverFresh+® food-preservation system does just that. Here’s how: • A series of crispers use breathable smart materials and other advances to maximize humidity and minimize moisture loss.

• Active Fresh Blue Light™ recreates photosynthesis conditions to preserve the vitamin C in produce, which keeps it tasting its best.

• An energy-saving ProSmart™ inverter compressor helps maintain vibrancy and nutritional qualities.

• In keeping with Beko’s pledge to make wellness attainable for all, the EverFresh+® system is available throughout the line of Beko refrigerators, not just the top-end models.

ON VIEW

“RECOLLECTION” AT RALPH PUCCI When the pandemic’s travel restrictions stranded French designer Patrick Naggar in New York, what transpired was the rare opportunity to work directly in the Ralph Pucci studio and experiment on something entirely new: sculpted furniture. The result is his latest exhibit, “Recollection,” at the Ralph Pucci showroom in Wynwood. “The pieces were handmade in plaster first, the same way a sculptor would sculpt a model before the molding process,” Naggar says of the seven designs in the collection. “The trial-and-error process, the layers of plaster, the discoveries through finger marks and a sense of play were added to my traditional use of poetical and symbolic references. The works resonate with the viewer just as a sculpture does, but they are at the same time practical and usable.” Reminiscent of something ancient and at the same time new, the curvilinear pieces include the Hestia Sconce and Lotus Coffee Table (shown right). The exhibition runs through December 22. ralphpucci.com

what collective design is and why it has value. Today, that message is received.

So now, it’s about expanding the canon and engaging new audiences while supporting the next generation of designers and dealers. My métier is telling the stories of design.

Who’s on your radar? The design scene is growing so fast. I’ve been in and out of Miami for 15 years, and local designermakers used to be a rarity. Now there are a number of studios to get excited about, such as Quinaz Studio, Carbonell Design Studio, GeoVanna Gonzalez, Emmett Moore and the list goes on.

What inspires you? Studio visits bring me so much joy. Talking with designers about their practice, the materials and processes they use, the visions of the world they want to convey and create with their work—this plays such an important role in how I think about design and evaluate the current landscape.

A garden as a status symbol? It’s a thing, says Miami landscape designer Fernando Wong, the mastermind behind many of the grand landscapes and covetable properties from South Florida to Southampton and beyond. Recently a star judge alongside Martha Stewart on HGTV’s Clipped, Wong shares what it takes to transform an outdoor space into a sanctuary. fernandowongold.com Tips for an inviting alfresco space: Create a seamless transition between the indoors and outdoors by using similar materials and fabrics. Comfort is crucial, so I always advise clients to have a fan installed overhead for air movement. There’s nothing more captivating than a canopy of palms and trees for shade and watching the light dance as the breeze catches the leaves. After the sun goes down, opt for candlelight in place of electricity to create a romantic ambience.

Trending: What’s been fascinating through the pandemic is the growing number of clients who are purchasing properties adjacent to their homes as tear-downs so they can expand their gardens and outdoor entertaining spaces. Our backyards have truly emerged as the new darling of our homes. It’s where we can escape to have a quiet conversation, unplug, and of course, entertain family and friends.

Wow-factor: A beautiful tree tucked into the corner or the center axis of the garden. It instantly adds visual interest and drama.

Up next: I’m excited about the landscaping for the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale. What we conceived so many years ago has finally materialized, and now the fun begins as we put plantings in.

SHELF LIFE

With so much time spent at home during lockdown, interior designer Victoria Hagan developed a greater appreciation for all that our personal sanctuaries provide.

The interior designer, who has an office in Palm Beach, recently released Live Now, a reflective tome that considers the significance of home. “I wanted to explore the emotional connection between clients and their spaces, focusing on 12 distinct projects and the way meaning, purpose and versatility have been imbued into each,” Hagan says. “My hope is that readers will glean from this book the importance of creating and celebrating nourishing rooms that best reflect their own lifestyle.” The pages are filled with magnificent residences in Manhattan, Martha’s Vineyard, Sonoma and, of course, Palm Beach, which has been captivating the interior designer since she first visited as a teenager. victoriahagan.com

Its eyepopping glass sculptural tower uniquely consists of nine spiraling, offset cubes. “We differentiated this cube-style architecture by tilting the first cube upward, and from there we offset the other cubes and pushed the top cube out even farther, providing an illusion that the tower is even taller than it is,” says architect Charles Sieger of Sieger Suarez Architects.

HOME

Well & Good

“Most of us spend 90 percent of our lives indoors, and two-thirds of that is in our homes,” says designer Tamara Magel. “Yet very few of us consider the impact on our well-being.” It’s a staggering and pertinent statistic that has inspired Magel and others to make wellness a cornerstone of their design philosophies: How can we build a house that not only looks good but also creates a sense of peace, beauty, security and comfort?

For Magel, this started with adopting a 10-step healthy living approach. “A truly healthy home goes beyond clean materials; it incorporates our basic human needs for light, clean air and food, a quiet environment and a peaceful atmosphere,” she explains.

In her work, this translates to non-toxic and eco-friendly paints, natural stone and elements (water, clay and grasses), natural

light sources and feng shui. “I tend to use less furniture and larger pieces to create ease of flow from room to room,” she says.

“I start with symmetry and add strategically placed organic curves.”

Symmetry is also key for architect Don Ruggles, an idea he explores in his book Beauty, Neuroscience & Architecture, where he maintains that the most fundamental geometric pattern is the three-point facial pattern—two eyes and a mouth. What may seem like an abstract concept for the home is actually quite relevant: “The three-bythree pattern occurs over and over again in architecture and art,” says Ruggles. “Your brain will intuitively process it in an efficient way, which creates less stress and more rest.”

The architect mentions the classic fireplace set up, in which the firebox opening is the center, and the mantel forms the upper left

and upper right of the design. Notice the pattern once, and you’ll see it everywhere: a headboard with two nightstands; the kitchen range and hood framed by cabinets; a front door surround; and so on.

In California, architect Jennifer Hoppel is championing beauty and sustainability.

With her firm, Burdge Architects, she just completed the first carbon-neutral luxury estate in Malibu, aptly named Zero One. “You don’t have to sacrifice design or luxury to achieve a structure that is good for you and the environment,” she says, noting the residence’s intentional siting, outdoor courtyard, sustainable garden, FSCcertified wood and even its less sexy (but no less important) ventilation system that promotes healthy air. “Being green is not this big, scary endeavor,” says Hoppel. “It’s attainable. It’s the way of the future.”

Past Perfect ARTISTRY AND ANCIENT TECHNIQUES COMBINE TO CREATE FURNITURE THAT STANDS THE TEST OF TIME.

Father-son duo Philip and Kelvin LaVerne often buried their works in special soil, which would age the metal and give it the appearance of antiquity, like the piece shown here.

LUXESOURCE.COM

It’s been more than 30 years since the last piece of furniture left Philip LaVerne Galleries, but the demand for the richly detailed tables, consoles and cabinets has only grown. This wouldn’t surprise their creators, a father-and-son team who knew they were crafting pieces with an enduring appeal even as they made them.

Philip LaVerne and his son, Kelvin, were able to use their prodigious artistic gifts to create sculptural bronze and pewter pieces prized by designers and collectors. Their story begins in the late 1800s when Philip’s father, Max, immigrated to Brooklyn from Eastern Europe. “Max was a muralist, and he painted the ceilings of lobbies and churches,” says Evan Lobel, the owner of Lobel Modern NYC and co-author of a forthcoming book about the LaVernes.

“When Philip was a child, Max would take him to the library, open an art book and ask his son to copy the images there.

From an early age, Philip had a great talent and appreciation for art.”

Those skills and inclinations were passed to Kelvin who, after graduating from art school in the 1950s, joined his father in creating one-of-a-kind pieces and selling them in a Midtown Manhattan showroom. The surfaces of their furniture frequently carry vignettes

weeks in soil the artists described as coming from the “Far East,” allowing it to oxidize and develop colors. The LaVernes monitored the process, encouraging hues with chemicals and setting them with wax when they achieved the desired shade. When unearthed, they would freeze or torch surfaces to develop patina or brightness. “The LaVernes were really advanced for their time. Their techniques, which they said were inspired by ancient practices, were never divulged,” says Merrill. “They were essentially painting with bronze and pewter, doing things that aren’t easily copied.”

In 1987, Kelvin closed the studio doors and took up photography. But, more than three decades later, the LaVerne legacy continues to grow. According to Darin Geise, owner of Coup D’Etat, the singular nature of the work explains its enduring popularity. “People have a new appreciation for LaVerne pieces, and they are having a moment,” he says.

Lobel agrees, noting: “They used to run magazine ads calling their pieces the ‘antiques of the future’—and they were absolutely right.”

Current prices for LaVerne pieces, like the rare Tao Cabinet (below) and a table from their first series focused on historical civilizations (left), bear out the statement. Todd Merrill notes recent auctions that have seen LaVerne works command top dollar. “In early 2000, Sotheby’s sold a Bathers cabinet for $90,000,” he notes. “If you had one today, you could ask whatever you wanted for it.”

LaVerne Everlasting DESIGNERS ON TODAY’S APPEAL OF THESE VINTAGE PIECES. “ At once avant-garde and traditional, a LaVerne work is always a fantastic focal point to any interior. The burnished bronze and verde gris patina adds a touch of deceptive antiquity and the plateaux quietly reveal a bas-relief scene akin to the face of an antique coin.”

–JON DE LA CRUZ

“ W hat drew me to their furnishings is that they can work anywhere—either in a traditional or a modern interior. They are just as beautiful in either setting.”

–JENNIFER COHLER MASON

“ T he craftsmanship of a LaVerne piece is amazing. Every detail is elegantly articulated and every time you study it, you see something new. You have to wonder, how did they do it?”

depicting life in ancient civilizations or scenes from mythology. “They were a very intellectual family,” notes Lobel.

“They were interested in history, religion and music. Their designs were inspired by the subjects they loved deeply.”

Their top-secret techniques created a look that’s immediately recognizable.

Todd Merrill of Todd Merrill Studio describes the process in his book, Modern Americana: Studio Furniture from High Craft to High Glam, as a multistep endeavor involving hand carving a design in bronze and overlaying that with thin layers of pewter and more bronze. After that, a piece would be buried for six

Note Worthy BEHOLD THE FRESHEST GREENS TO MARKET.

NATURE-NODDING GREENS ARE THE ORDER OF THE DAY. GARDEN CLUB “Green is my favorite color in all areas of my life,” shares Chicago-based designer Alexandra Kaehler, who accordingly envisioned her pantry as an emerald jewel box. Leaning into her home’s leafy setting, Kaehler selected Benjamin Moore’s Essex Green, favoring a high-gloss finish over lacquer for the character of its brushstrokes. “I love the concept of bringing greenery inside,” continues the designer, noting that clients are increasingly sharing in her penchant.

“After being stuck inside our houses, I think people are extra hungry for an outdoor connection, and translating that idea indoors visually is really comforting.” alexandrakaehler.com

INTO THE WOODS In a surprise to designer Marie Flanigan, Harry Potter spurred a chic color scheme— specifically, the series’ Forbidden Forest, which Flanigan’s young client requested her bedroom elicit. “Her inspiration was a lush, deep wood, and we used a moody palette to execute that,” Flanigan says.

After reviewing four kindred paint samples (her own best practice), the designer opted for Sherwin-Williams’ Rocky River, pulling its strong saturation across the trim and ceiling. “Evoking nature breaks the divide between the indoors and outside,” she explains. “Here, the green envelops you and makes you feel like you’re sleeping among the trees.” marieflanigan.com

–JANIE MOLSTER, janiemolster.com

“We knew Farrow & Ball’s Light Blue, with its serene properties and silvery gray tones, would lend depth of character.

The room has a wall of windows facing a river, so it offers the gentlest nod to the natural surroundings.” “ Using a vibrant Benjamin Moore New York color found in a State of Mind painting as the background is a favorite design trick of mine. For this scullery, Benjamin Moore’s New York State of Mind was the perfect hue to highlight blue chip contemporary art by Bridget Riley, Lee Ufan and Tom LaDuke—and the lacquer adds another wow factor!”

Maximalist color has gone mainstream in recent years, and the notion of “neutral” has evolved in turn. Just ask designer Nina Magon, who saw designing a bedroom at the 2021 Kips Bay Palm Beach Decorator Showhouse (top) as an opportunity to show the world that pink can be just as restful as the usual suspects.

“Color is so important right now because it elicits emotions,” she muses, adding of Benjamin Moore’s Rosy Tan, “we wanted soft and cozy, and I think we nailed it.”

Designer Stephanie Sabbe credits the success of this color family as a neutral canvas to its natural connotations. In her clients’ Nashville multipurpose room (bottom left), she used Benjamin Moore’s Pumice Stone, which nods to a sunbaked desert. Beyond sea and sky, “anything in earth tones is calming,” she insists. “For everyday living, surrounding yourself with fresh colors like these brings happiness,” chimes in designer Melanie Turner, who outfitted her clients’ Atlanta living room (bottom right) in Benjamin Moore’s golden Windswept Canyon. After decades of greige living, designers and clients are in agreement: dusty shades of peach, mauve, rust and rose offer a thrilling alternative.

Stormy beginnings: Thirteen years ago, Alex Geriner, founder of furniture company Doorman, discovered an old cypress door that had been salvaged from Hurricane Katrina. Inspired, he repurposed it into a bed. Do the hustle: Geriner began selling other repurposed pieces, and soon, “It became this fun side hustle,” he says.

Five years later, he fully committed to the company. Thinking global, staying local: Doorman is rooted in the Crescent City, but focuses on the bigger picture. “Home is more than just four walls and the roof. It’s the planet that we stand on,” he says. Beyond recycling: Geriner pivoted from repurposing old pieces (“reclaimed wood is hard to find these days,” he notes) to broader environmental initiatives such as working with nearby lumber mills that sustainably harvest trees and turning to renewable energy. “Solar power is about 80 to 90 percent of our production energy,” Geriner adds. Modern history: “We pay homage to the style of New Orleans,” says Geriner, “but we’re bringing it into the 21st century.”

Ahead of the curve: When Tracy Hiner launched Black Crow Studios, an art-driven custom wallpaper company, she set the path for the digitally printed mural companies that would follow in her footsteps.

Doing more: “I was disillusioned with the luxury design industry,” she says. “Things happening in the world weren’t being addressed.” So Hiner started donating 20 percent of her Caliber Collection proceeds to a gun buy-back program. Rebellious streak: “I started thinking I could do this with all my collections,” she says. In 2019 the designer launched Rebel with a Cause, which she describes as a way to keep making art while making a difference.

No limits: Hiner donates 50 percent of her personal profits to a range of charities. Each of her wallpaper collections is dedicated to a different cause, including justice programs, inner city arts and animal rescue. “I found charities that mean something to me,” she says. “I want to make the biggest impact.”

DUCHATEAU Soul searchers: In 2006, Benjamin Buzali and Misael Tagle started talking. They had noticed the difference between aged European hardwood floors versus that of new stained wood. “There’s a cannon to wood that’s changed over time,” explains Patrick Bewley, vice president of marketing. “There’s a soul to it.” Soon the luxury flooring company, DuChateau, was born. Thinking differently: DuChateau uses a combination of smoking, water bath and hand-scraping techniques, which not only creates the desired aged-inplace look, but it’s also sustainable. “We’ve always stayed away from formaldehyde and products with emissions,” explains Bewley.

“And we’ve never used wood that’s illegally harvested.” Upping the ante: The company’s DuGood Initiative followed suit a decade later. “We were heartsick by the California wildfires,” says Bewley. In a partnership with the National Forest Foundation, DuChateau plants one tree for every floor sold. A portion of those trees goes to forests impacted by the wildfires. Fierce ambition: “We’ve planted more than 25,000 trees,” says Bewley. “Sustainability is our core value.”

I’m excited to announce we will be adding a custom painting and home decor line to Tara Nia Design, which will be launching in 2022.

What project would you love to take on?

Since I love Miami’s food and dining experience, it would be a great opportunity if I was given a chance to design a restaurant project that fits within the city’s style.

Malachite Botryoidal on Pink Cast Glass Base (top) and Colombian Quartz on Cast Bronze (bottom) are created first by Mother Nature and then composed by Montana’s John Greytak.

EXISTENTIAL EXPRESSION Like many creatives before him, fashion designer-turned-artist Rogan Gregory looked to the female being as muse for his “Fertility Form” series. The stainless steel and bronze sculptures—nestled in an antique velvet-lined cabinet from ABC Home—are made of multiple parts stacked together and represent the many different cycles of life. These pieces, along with the salt & pepper shaker set (bottom center), exemplify Gregory’s focus on lines, proportion and asymmetrical harmony. r-and-company.com; abchome.com

BON APPÉTIT “This is a legitimate cook’s kitchen, but it doesn’t necessarily look like one,” explains Harrison Design’s Karen Ferguson of the area she designed for a serious Atlanta-based home chef. With the client’s wish list in hand—sous vide, induction cooktop, steam oven, compost bin and more—Ferguson set about understanding how her client would use these features to deliver a dream kitchen.

LUXESOURCE.COM

The design scheme started with a dynamic quarter-figured sycamore wood wall, which conceals appliances like the refrigerator, freezer and juice bar. To warm up the space and continue the organic feel, Ferguson opted for an oak island with delicate walnut dovetail details and a handsome butcher block. She added walnut hardware throughout for cohesiveness.

Varying the materials palette, the designer incorporated patinated metal for the hood, cabinetry and backsplash, which also hides a storage compartment.

But the pièce de resistance is a custom glass panel flanking the range that features gold wallpaper and fabric on the backside— a decorative focal point in the room. Notes of rose gold and brass in the fittings and finishing details balance the gray tones and brighten up the space.

Ferguson’s best advice for a flawless kitchen is to ensure client conversations about functionality happen upfront. “Tell me how you plan to live and cook in the space, and then I can show you how to use it beautifully,” she says. harrisondesign.com

In an Atlanta kitchen, Harrison Design’s Karen Ferguson worked with Block & Chisel on the cabinetry and included Fusion Blue Quartzite on the countertops.

A Wolf range, rose gold Dornbracht faucets and Lutron shades complete the look.

For the latest and greatest in dishwasher technology, look no further than Miele’s new G 5000 line. The high-performance series offers an AutoOpen function that leaves the door slightly ajar at the end of the program to ensure excellent drying for plastics and glassware. Interior baskets can be continuously moved around and repositioned, and an optional third rack is ideal for cleaning cutlery. It’s offered in a 24-inch size and as well as an 18-inch model for smaller spaces or secondary kitchens. mieleusa.com

One Stop, Unrivaled Selection For AjMadison’s clients, “shopping around” is a thing of the past.

FOUNDED IN 2001, AjMadison is a family-owned business that has become the leading online retailer of top-rated appliances. With more than 2.5 million customers, it acts as the industry’s foremost authority on the subject. The company’s exceptional team of experts assist customers with navigating the wide array of options available—thousands of in-stock products that are ready to ship. AjMadison will even handle installation, haul-away and complex deliveries to difficult locations. One can also shop in person, at the purveyor’s showrooms in Brooklyn, New York; Washington, DC and, coming soon, Sunny Isles, Florida.

FIRST IN CLASS Favorites on the Floor

While AjMadison boasts more than 100 beloved appliance brands, the following seem to be at the top of every client’s list.

In the 21st century, appliances are no longer just about cooking, cooling and cleaning. Now, they exemplify how technology can create a pleasant user experience.

That’s what Dacor believes. With roots as an inventive appliance maker, the brand has continued to rethink the kitchen. A fan favorite is its Contemporary 30-inch combination electric wall oven.

Combining incredible cooking equipment with technology and upscale design, Thermador offers a wide range of products—and they’re smart. With its Home Connect app, one can integrate appliances into a smart home automation system and control them by smartphone or speaker. Check out the brand’s Pro Grand Professional dual-fuel range with steam and induction.

To cook for others is an act of sharing one’s personality, individualism, heritage and story, through delicious flavors and textures. That is the ethos that guides Bertazzoni, a 100-plus-yearold brand that pulls its inspiration from the Emilia-Romagna region— known as the breadbasket of Italy.

Explore its Professional series 30-inch induction range.

For decades, Viking has been considered “the American standard” for the modern luxury kitchen. It pairs commercial-grade power with the most elegant designs, making it the go-to for elite chefs and distinguished designers alike. Be sure to take a look at its Professional 7 series ranges, with gas burners that deliver up to 23,000 BTU.

“Entertaining has become more intimate and personal,” says artist-designer Sarah Espeute, whose hand-embroidered table linens depict playful tableaus of shared meals. “Above all,” she adds, “there’s a desire for novelty now—a wish to travel through the table—hence the word ‘tablescape!’ ”

TABLE TALK

Artist Sarah Espeute doesn’t take setting the table too seriously. Just look to the chorus of snails, turnips, wildflowers and the like, which flit between hand-stitched place settings on her whimsical linens. From a shared studio space in Marseille, France, Espeute embroiders these convivial scenes on thrifted, often century-old bed sheets conceived anew.

For Espeute, the joy in her chosen medium lies in its dualisms—her linens are nostalgic and modern; dressy and lighthearted; decorative and utilitarian. She admires blurred boundaries in design. “Multidisciplinary artists with a broad practice have reinforced the idea that there is no limit in creation,” she says, citing the work of painters like Cy Twombly and Raoul Ubac, and the architecture of Luis Barragán and Carlo Scarpa, amongst others, as inspirations.

While a multidisciplinary artist herself (Espeute designs furniture and paints), there’s something about the handmade character of embroidery— and the act of gathering around the dining table—that comforts and captivates her imagination. “I think embroidery really touches people,” she muses, adding, “it’s wonderfully sentimental.” oeuvres-sensibles.fr

LUXESOURCE.COM

table talk photos: courtesy sarah espeute. french lessons photos: matthieu salvaing, courtesy rizzoli. the huntress photo: sofi perazzo.

Like many strokes of ingenuity, Oeuvres Sensibles (meaning “sensitive objects”), Espeute’s line of tablecloths, runners and napkins, was born from necessity. Coveting unique cushions and curtains for her own home, she turned inward, resourcefully picking up an embroidery needle—and the stars aligned. When a friend gauged her interest in creating a tabletop textile for an art exhibition, “I imagined a trompe l’oeil meal and things took off from there!” she recalls.

FRENCH LESSONS

Dior Maison artistic director Cordelia de Castellane has catalogued her flair for hosting in a new book: Life In A French Country House: Entertaining For All Seasons (Rizzoli).

Previewing the bounty of inspiration within, here, de Castellane shares two of her signature moves for a sui generis fête.

On linens. I love to order embroidered vintage tablecloths on eBay and dye them in my washing machine. How cool is it to have formal linens dyed a shocking hot pink?

Contradiction keeps design interesting.

A tabletop vignette displays de Castellane’s maximalist tendencies. “The Saint-Louis crystal glasses and Clichy vases set the stage for this winter table—I even cheated by dipping certain flowers in dye!” she notes.

THE HUNTRESS

“My grandmother used to set the most impeccable tables,” recalls Federika Longinotti Buitoni. “To this day, I remember the gorgeous ceramic parrots she used as centerpieces, and the homemade clementine ice cream that she served on perfectly carved clementine skin. I learned never to underestimate the details, as this is often all people remember.” With such early-seeded reverence for the art of entertaining, the fact that Longinotti Buitoni grew up to found Collecto—a retailer dedicated to aggregating the finest tabletop wares from around the globe—is apropos.

Traversing Italy for delicate glassware, France for Limoges porcelain and Mexico for handmade pottery, Longinotti Buitoni is building a veritable melting pot of luxury, artisan-driven homewares, with a new service wing offering bespoke, soup-to-nuts dining and kitchenware curation. Grandmother, we posit, would approve. collectoworld.com

On decor. You don’t need flowers to create an exciting centerpiece. In summer, I’ll fashion a runner out of ripe tomatoes only. For the holidays, I’ll fill crystal bowls with colorful candies. And there is no more beautiful focal point than candles—lots and lots of them in different shapes and sizes.

ART OF THE EDIT STYLIST MIEKE TEN HAVE DISHES ON ENTERTAINING AU COURANT.

Trick for charming guests: My mother always serves a little bit of soup in a teacup or finger bowl as an hors d’oeuvre. I think it’s such a clever and a fun way to repurpose tableware that isn’t used very often anymore—and more interesting than cheese and crackers!

Finds you’re crushing on now: I collect a lot of antique plates, but my contemporary Alberto Pinto faux bois chargers are a favorite. While a classic motif, the scale makes them look more modern than grand-mère. I almost always reach for colored glassware—amethyst, emerald and aquamarines are my go-tos. And nobody does unique block prints like Gregory Parkinson. His colors are so luscious and interesting.

Always in your pantry: I have tapers in every color of the rainbow. I mix them up seasonally and according to the table’s scheme.

Hosting faux pas: Serving dinner too late.

On Mieke’s holiday table: Gregory Parkinson’s hand-loomed pine zest ikat napkins (top), Pinto Paris’ faux bois buffet plate (center), Nason Moretti’s Idra twisted striped water glass (above) and vintage crystal-and-sterling swan salt and pepper wells from Chairish (right).

Go-to for mixing things up: It’s fun to dine in an unexpected area, like a little card table in the living room. Moving locations introduces a feeling of novelty and excitement.

Advice for a spirited table: I focus on the mix of patterns and styles more than anything else.

I have a collection of tableware, textiles and decorative objects (fanciful salt cellars, for example) and I love to use them in interesting combinations, particularly mixing aesthetic eras and cultures. I don’t like when tables are too “pretty.” There should be contrast.

DREAM WEAVING

“From the outset, we were determined to create a business model with social impact,” says Goya Gallagher, who alongside Margarita Andrade, co-founded Malaika—a Cairo-based atelier championing traditional Egyptian crafts.

At launch, the company covered embroidery tuition for local women, but the mission expanded with their retail success. In 2018, the pair opened Threads Of Hope, a free trade school, which trains community members for Malaika employment.

In both motif and materiality, the brand’s offerings—from silk-screened place mats to intricately stitched napkins and handmade pottery—celebrate the abundance of Egypt’s natural and cultural history. Ultimately, they hope this cycle of preserving heritage craft extends beyond the hands that create, down to the consumer. Notes Gallagher, “every piece in our collection has been carefully designed as a timeless family heirloom to pass on for generations to come.” malaikalinens.com

“Miami is a very contemporary city in spirit and design.”

ECLECTIC MINDSET Asked what Miami’s design scene is loving in regard to materials, Arvanitopoulos says, “We’re using a unique mix of wood, stone, glass and metal to create eye-catching, yet elegant designs. I think the popularity of mixing and matching in this way will only grow.”

ARRIVALS IN PARADISE

ARVANI BUILDING WORKS 305.803.0313 | arvanibwllc.com

On July 4, 1982, Nikolas Arvanitopoulos landed in Miami. At the time, he had just come from Greece to enroll in flight school—the next big step toward his dream of becoming a pilot. But he had long been fascinated by construction, too, which was a family legacy back home. He graduated and worked as a pilot for some years, before deciding it was time to transition to his other passion. It wasn’t long before he founded his firm, Arvani Building Works, which is now a BBB accredited institution. And the city he had come to call home played a role in his decision.

“There is such authentic and originative design happening here,” Arvanitopoulos says. “Local styles speak to a special sense of place. Exterior block walls are replaced with all-glass ones,

As of late, Arvani Building Works is busier than ever. “One of our several current projects is a 22,000-square-foot oceanfront mansion, but we’re also working on an exciting home on Pine Tree Drive,” Arvanitopoulos says. The company’s ever-growing portfolio is due, in part, to a rediscovering of Miami’s appeal. “As people have been focused on the value of home life, they are rethinking where their home should be.

We’ve seen many affluent and well-known individuals make the move to our city from places around the world and country in the past year or so.”

allowing one to experience the tropical vegetation, bright sunshine and breathtaking waterfront views for which we are famous.”

NOW + UP NEXT Arvanitopoulos offers a peek into design of the moment and its future leanings.

•C ultural influences: We are all busy with plenty of projects, and the diversity of cultures and nationalities continues to be an enriching aspect for us.

•N ovel ideas: The architects and designers are abandoning the trend of borrowing from Europe and embracing originality.

“Miami is flourishing and beginning a new era in design.”

COMBINED INFLUENCES “Miami and most of South Florida are influenced by vibrant Latin American culture, colors and rhythms, but also by the tradition and elegance that has been brought down from the northern seasonal residents,” Louis says. “They demand a certain level of sophistication and quality which has positively impacted the architecture, design, culture and lifestyle.”

FORMS OF VISION From the Spanish Colonial villas of Coral Gables, Coco Plum and Palm Beach, to the decadent Art Deco structures of Miami Beach, Florida is overflowing with architectural inspirations.

But there is one element they all share, if you ask Louis, and it is the source from which he gleans inspiration. “I love the Biltmore Hotel, Vizcaya and other icons.

They are all unique but share an impressive attention to detail and thoughtful material combinations that inspires me.”

“Miami is very local but, at the same time, closely connected to the international design scene.”

CULTURAL JUBILANCE “Miami has a strong tropical modernism root, inspired by the midcentury modernism that early masters adapted,” Reinaldo shares. “The city and its multicultural population enjoy a rich tradition of architectural heritage, from Art Deco to Mediterranean and modern. Miami is blessed to have a well-balanced spirit of place that inspires designers with its colors, textures, always changing skies and tropical nautical environment. Some call Miami the Venice of America; it is hedonistic and traditional at once.”

For Reinaldo Borges and his team at Borges + Associates Architects, the “Gateway to the Americas,” as Miami is known, has actually been the “Gateway to the World.” “I am CubanAmerican, and like many in Miami, I came here in search of freedom and opportunity,” Reinaldo says. “I also found inspiration. Miami has been integral to our development of an international portfolio, unmatched by others in both design sensibility and sustainable innovation.” And indeed, Reinaldo’s work has set him apart so much that he was invited by city and county leaders to run task forces dedicated to combating sea level rise and climate change. “It is incredibly satisfying to see my firm’s projects dotting the skyline and to know that in the process of creating them, we have been at the forefront of making Miami more resilient.”

It’s a calling he feels in his soul, given his deep love for the place.

When he isn’t at work drafting gorgeous new buildings, Reinaldo might be a found in the sky. “As a recreational sports aviation pilot, I fly all around this amazing landscape, discovering new projects and enjoying the views from above.” He also chronicles his journeys on Instagram, at @flyingarchitect_miami.

“Design in Miami has exploded. We are a powerhouse in the global creative community.”

A CREATIVE CROSSROADS “Miami is like a portal,” Fanny says. “It has always connected closely to Latin America, but it also has European influences and acts as a travel hub. It has so much diversity woven into its thriving, cosmopolitan, multicultural community. The arts and residential design meld together, taking the city to new stratospheres of inventiveness.

Miami is where boundless creativity resides.”

MATERIALITY IN MIAMI Fanny shares some insights on what Miamians are into.

FANNY HAIM & ASSOCIATES 305.937.0815 | fannyhaim.com |

fannyhaim

Industry legends like Morris Lapidus, hyper regional vernaculars like that of the nearby Keys, natural beauty that remains unrivaled and unique native materials such as keystone—it all plays into the inimitable appeal Miami has for a designer. Just ask Fanny Haim. She moved to the city from Colombia in 1980 and has been enamored by all of the above ever since. Today, she pulls from each of those inspirations for the work of her namesake firm, Fanny Haim & Associates, which she runs with daughter Michelle. Together, they’ve become a staple on the local interior design scene, creating stunning bespoke concepts while also crafting their own product collections. The latter has recently been a major hit. Fanny elaborates: “Our Kaiteki chaise at Jean de Merry has been so popular that we’ve now customized it for outdoor use, and we have seen a lot of interest in our Mirage fabric collection.”

• Locality: Many of our clients, especially those who aren’t native to Miami, enjoy being exposed to materials that are different from what they have in their other homes, like natural fibers, such as linen and jute.

• Imperfection: We have been using Japanese charred wood a lot. There is something magical about how an object physically burned can become precious in context.

“There are hidden architectural treasures all over Miami.”

MIAMI IN THE MOMENT What are Magic City homeowners and designers loving? Granda shares a few top trends: • Natural wood finishes and metals are timeless favorites.

• Wallpaper is big right now.

• Vinyl is improved and becoming more stylish as a result.

• LED lighting is involved in every project.

STRUCTURE MAKING MUSES “I love Zaha Hadid,” Granda says. “She was prolific and has buildings all over the world. Of course, I particularly love her iconic One Thousand Museum.

She was and still is such an inspiration. I also adore Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, and in a more general sense, the mix of old and new architecture in Miami is an ongoing influence.

Our skyline is impressive!”

Miami has long been a place where global design influences thrive. A worldwide travel hub with a wonderfully diverse community of people and their various passions, it invites creativity that melds influences. A perfect example lies in the work of Maite Granda, president and principal designer of Interiors by Maite. “I’ve lived in Miami since 1982, but before that, I spent some time in New York and Spain,” Granda says. “I was also born in Cuba. Caribbean color is a big influence in my life and design applications, as is my current Key Biscayne home. I incorporate a lot of tropical flowers, palm trees, bougainvillea and poinciana trees.” Meanwhile, her time in Ibiza inspired a penchant for using natural fibers within decor. “I love—and Miami loves—a mixture of Caribbean, Latin and European concepts adapted to American lifestyles,” Granda says.

“It all interacts together so passionately.”

FULL OF SPIRIT Upon being asked what she feels makes Miami so unique, Granda says, “It is a ‘young’ city, abundant with energy and diverse culture. Dynamic, dramatic and vibrant, it is warm and coastal and full of people wearing light, bright colors.

It creates passion.”

SO MIAMI What are locals obsessed with right now? Osirys enlightens …

eated icon: •S In 2019, we became dealers for Koket, a posh Portuguese brand that we felt resonated with Miamians’ taste. We were correct! One piece, in particular, has captivated: The opulent Chandra barstool has a presence in nearly every installation.

When asked how they would describe the current state of design in Miami, designers Osirys Mendez and Sabrina Vela say, “It is in constant evolution, influenced by the juxtaposition of visionaries from myriad cultures.” And indeed, they themselves prove the point. Osirys was born in Cuba and lived a few years in Spain before settling into Miami at a young age. Sabrina lived in her native Argentina until she set out for adventure in her early 20s. Today, they both consider themselves Magic City natives, having spent decades amid its skyline and pristine beaches.

Their firm, Mendez-Vela Design Collection, is just as intertwined with the place, having been in the Miami Design District from the start. “We previewed, firsthand, the neighborhood’s emerging open-air museum and the creation of the shopping and dining scene it now has,” they say of MDD. “Being here constantly influences us.”

MARVEL OF MIXED INFLUENCE Where should a design lover be headed when in Miami?

“Museum Garage is a must!”

Sabrina enthuses. “Our favorite building in MDD, it was designed/ curated by our friend, Terence Riley, who was commissioned by the area’s developer, Craig Robins. The building signifies a collection of visions assembled by various artists; they do not necessarily match but flow together anyway—a juxtaposition fitting for Miami.”

“Living in a city surrounded by water and paradisiac beaches really helps creativity to flow.”

THAT MIAMI LOOK Known to pull great influence from Latin America and Europe, as well as its warm weather and stunning scenery, Miami undeniably has a vibe all its own. Racy notes, “Light colors are always present, and a mix of contemporary style with tropical nuances is key to the formula.” Indeed, on that latter point, Racy also expresses the natural world’s influence on all things Miami.

“Connecting with nature is a great form of inspiration, and that is something Miami offers in abundance.”

Cosmopolitan, modern, full of energy and youth—these are the qualities Nicholas Jemciugovas and Roberto Racy point to in describing what they love about their Brickell location. “It matches very well with the soul of our office and team,” explains Jemciugovas, who acts as CEO to Racy’s principal interior designer at Nar Design Studio. Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, the two are architects as well, lending their firm the distinction of being able to design with a perspective on structural features. Racy circles back to the conversation on their home’s energy: “Miami is becoming more and more cosmopolitan. We see that interior design here is evolving to a global scale, being compared with that in cities like New York, Dubai and Hong Kong.” As for the prevalent aesthetic trends, black-and-white color schemes are dominating, which the duo calls “strong, powerful and full of contrast.”

“Legendary architects like Rem Koolhaas, Renzo Piano, Norman Foster and Zaha Hadid, among others, have left their mark in the city, designing landmarks such as Hadid’s One Thousand Museum,” Jemciugovas says.

“With its remarkable curves and futuristic shapes, it changed Miami’s skyline.

Working in buildings like that always inspires us and makes projects extra rewarding.”

“I do not believe in trends. Each client is a universe and my mission is to understand them.”

MENTOR ON PROCESS “I once had a conversation with architect Morris Lapidus, and he told me how he worked,” Juan says. “It was fascinating to hear his design capability to get involved in every detail. He designed from floor to stairway to fabrics and chandeliers. It gave my passion for design an influential boost and perspective.”

SOUL OF A CITY Juan speaks on Miami.

• I n a few words: Miami is a resort with the ‘brushstrokes’ of a big city.

•F avorite event: It may be cliché, but the Art Basel days are fantastic for the city and our design community.

Some 34 years ago, Juan Poggi moved from Peru to Miami. The rest is a history of loving the Magic City. And it isn’t a chapter of Juan’s story that is likely to close soon, because there is always forward movement in the tropical design hot spot. “Right now, Miami is bursting with project opportunities for everyone,” Juan shares. “It is giving us back the sense of prosperity that we’ve always had here.” Although the owner and principal of Poggi Design believes that “design can happen anywhere if you are a true designer,” he does note that his home base of Coral Gables offers inspiration. “It is full of green, abundant with nice neighbors and close to everything I need,” he says. “Miami as a whole is also the perfect location because of its geographic placement. It’s eight hours from Europe, two and a half from New York City, five from Los Angeles, and so on—perfect for us designers, who crave travel.”

“We mine the historic DNA of Miami to synthesize new, original designs that feel natural, classic and contemporary.”

NATURE AT PLAY “It is the natural beauty of South Florida which has inspired us, and continues to direct our vision,” Jeremy says.

“Some of our local inspiration comes from The Pagoda at Ransom Everglades, the Barnacle in Coconut Grove, and the Merrick House and Venetian Pool in Coral Gables.”

Phyllis adds, “Miamians continue to love everything influenced by nature. We’re intrinsically biophilic people because of our environment.

Our sea, sky and air are unique.

We’re using more wood, linens, wool, cotton and seagrass as design materials.”

The Taylor family is made up of self-described “Miami devotees.” Husband and wife William and Phyllis have been enjoying the diverse culture, “glorious” balmy winters and tropical beauty ever since moving to the area in the late 1970s. Jeremy, their son, is a Miami native. Together the trio, known as Taylor & Taylor, has been a lauded contributor to the built environment of South Florida for more than 30 years. Each Taylor brings a unique perspective to the collaborative. William boasts a vast knowledge of historical American and European architectural styles, as well as midcentury modernism and Florida vernacular, both informed by his Sarasota heritage. Phyllis, a “recovering New Yorker,” adds her own style, imbued by a fierce passion for color. And Jeremy seeks to meld old-school ideals with cutting-edge methods.

S

ome homeowners just know what they want—especially if they come from backgrounds that instilled a love of architecture, design and art.

Such was the case for one Bay Harbor Islands couple—the wife, a graphic designer and daughter of a gallerist; the husband, the son of an architect—who were looking to reinterpret their midcentury abode. “I am very big on research,” the wife says. “I looked at a lot of homes abroad.

I love modern European architecture.”

To bring their vision to life, the couple turned to architect Alain R. Bartroli, asking him to enact a thoughtful renovation that maintained the original charm, natural light and high ceilings of the 1955 ranch-style structure while expanding the space and incorporating sustainable features, such as lighting and air-conditioning control systems and high-performance windows. “They looked to the barn houses in Scandinavia,” Bartroli says, pointing to the clients’ desire for dark exterior cladding and a standing-seam metal roof. “They wanted to create something different than what is typical in Miami.”

At the top of the priority list was making the space livable for every member in the family of five.

With help from general contractor Gabriel Boano of Art + Tec Development, Bartroli expanded the foyer, family room and kitchen to incorporate a breakfast area and an office as well as added the husband’s dream two-story garage, decorated on the walls with the work of a local graffiti artist. To capitalize on the pool and views, the team enlarged and rearranged the main bedroom suite.

Perhaps most notable, however, is how Bartroli addressed the children’s spaces. “We took a different approach than we do when we typically design houses,” he says of the new double-height children’s wing that allows for a loft in each bedroom (which are all, ironically, larger than the main bedroom). “The clients are very family oriented. A big percentage of the home is devoted to the children.”

The youngest residents impacted other design decisions as well, including material choices— such as the porcelain tile flooring that runs throughout the structure. “I have a 14-yearold, a 12-year-old and a 5-and-a-half-year-old,” says the wife, who worked side-by-side with Bartroli on every aspect of the interior design.

“How do you make the house easy to maintain?”

Once again, she did a deep dive, researching materials that, while simple and natural, aren’t pristine—like the metal vanity in the powder room, the dining chairs with walnut legs and the faux-concrete statement headboard wall in the main bedroom. “There’s concrete. There’s metal.

There’s wood,” the wife notes. “The house has very raw, prime materials, which goes back to that Scandinavian aesthetic.”

The natural materials serve a second purpose that is just as important as withstanding normal family life: They provide a monochromatic backdrop that allows the owners’ extensive art collection to serve as the star of the show. “The punch of color comes from the art,” the wife says of the bold colors—from fluorescent green to royal purple and hot pink—that proliferate the interiors.

“It’s not from the furniture or materials—we did that in our prior house, and we outgrew it. We needed something more timeless.”

Bartroli and the wife used the art itself as the guiding force in the interiors. “The owners shared with me the pieces they wanted to feature,” he says, pointing to how lighting (including carefully considered window shading to protect from ultraviolet rays), room size and layout all needed to be considered. “For instance, the moment you walk into the foyer, you’re greeted by two popsicles,” the architect adds, in reference to artwork by Tim Berg and Rebekah Myers. “We set the foyer back a bit, so the pieces aren’t right in your face, but when you walk in, it has a playful feeling.”

“Playful” is the key word here, because, even with such a tremendous art collection, the clients knew they didn’t want their residence to feel like a gallery. “It took a lot of effort to make sure the art complemented the home and the home complemented the art without being too homey or too artsy,” Bartroli says.

The trick, he explains, was scaling the furniture to the rooms, sourcing comfortable furnishings and “making sure the family is present in every space.”

Whether gathered around the custom Italian dining table made of 48,000-year-old wood or lounging on the low-profile couch in the family room, there is a sense of balance between sophisticated and livable. “By making the spaces usable and placing the different art pieces within those spaces,” the architect says, “it sends the message that this is a house for both a family and artwork.”

In Palm Beach’s North End, a new home embraces Southern California’s laid-back style.

A Tale of Two Coasts

Architecture: Patrick Segraves, SKA Architect + Planner Interior Design: Lauren Ashley Browne, Lauren Ashley Design Home Builder: Alex Falk, Shapiro Pertnoy Companies Landscape Architecture: Donald J. Skowron, Jr., Don Skowron, Inc., and Jared McClure, Plantwell

A pair of custom white oak and brass coffee tables centers a vintage striped Turkish kilim rug in the living area of a Palm Beach residence by designer Lauren Ashley Browne. She sourced Belgian linen for the draperies and the sofa, which faces Casamidy armchairs. “Nothing is overly done,” the designer says. “It’s about understated luxury and accepting imperfection.”

A

fter nearly two decades in California, a couple decided to relocate their family to Palm Beach, the wife’s hometown.

Despite swapping oceans, however, they wanted to bring the breezy vibe of the Golden State to South Florida. They envisioned a residence with a laid-back yet elevated style—something sophisticated and chic that isn’t too fussy or precious. “We needed a space that worked for three kids, a dog, the beach and outdoor living,” the wife says. Designer Lauren Ashley Browne, a childhood friend of the wife, understood exactly what they desired.

“It’s all about bringing happiness and letting natural elements be the focus,” says Browne, who had designed the family’s Manhattan Beach house. “They’re a young family and had grown to love the indoor-outdoor California lifestyle.

There’s an homage to the history of both Palm Beach and California here.”

She wasn’t the only close connection on the project. “This is a family home built by friends,” muses architect Patrick Segraves, a former neighbor of the wife. Working with builder Alex Falk, he conceived what he calls “an island contemporary home” that fits sensibly into its secluded street on the north end of the island. “They wanted a casual beach house but not a traditional one,” Segraves explains. “The proportions and details are in keeping with what we do, but they wanted an open plan, not formal spaces. That’s becoming more common here in Palm Beach.”

A casual stone driveway sets the relaxed coastal tone from the outset, and opening the front door reveals the structure’s indoor-outdoor quality.

“The French limestone front steps go right through to the rear loggia, so it’s one continuous space out to the pool,” Browne notes. “That’s a pretty new thing for Florida design.” To emphasize the open floor plan, a traditionally West Coast concept, the designer encouraged natural light (“We barely have window treatments in the house,” she points out) and pursued a clean aesthetic, opting for white oak floors in the great room and bedrooms, leathered stone countertops in the kitchen, zellige tiles in bathrooms, limewash walls in the main bedroom and plastered ones in the main bathroom.

Further blurring the lines between inside and outside are doors that open completely to the

covered loggias and reveal a silvery-gray landscape.

“We wanted to soften the outdoor space and create a minimalist palette,” Browne explains. Working with landscape architects Don Skowron and Jared McClure, the team brought in drought-tolerant natives and plantings like jasmine for fragrance.

Of importance to Browne was to have the interiors transcend the outdoors, rather than compete with them. So she developed an inclusive and consistent design based on layers of minimalist colors, rather than expected bold South Florida hues. “It was very important to keep the palette neutral for a more California feel,” the designer says. The more simplistic strategy ensures nothing inside is overly bright, creating a sense of serenity and lightness while keeping the focal point on the outdoors and the clients’ artworks.

A limited palette does not mean boring, however.

Browne explored depth in textures, choosing pieces such as linen sofas and bouclé cashmere chairs in the living area and an African stool—used as a coffee table—sandblasted to a more neutral color in the family area. “It’s a very tactile house,” she observes, adding that durability was key. “We treated furniture selection as if the children were part of the home, not a concern in the home.”

As such, the designer employed Moroccan rugs, pillows made of vintage textiles, brass accents and leather dining chairs that age over time. “It’s about embracing those elements and accepting imperfection as an understated luxury,” she says.

“There’s a little bit of a European aesthetic, and the design incorporates some modern elements, but it’s livable and comfortable. These pieces come together to tell a story.”

And while the residence is built for sandy feet and wet paws, the couple’s ground-floor bedroom was designed to be a sanctuary. “We’re always excited to get into our room after kids are in bed—it’s calming,” the wife says. Light gray walls envelop the space, home to natural textures such as a linen bed, a shearling bench and a jute ceiling pendant.

In the bathroom, a glass-walled steam shower opens to an outdoor shower, furthering the relaxing atmosphere while brightening the room. “All that daylight really opens the space,” Browne says.

Settled in Palm Beach, the owners view their new home as an extension of their family. “The house reflects who we are,” the wife says. “There’s nothing perfectly done or staged. It’s authentic.”

And still a little bit California.

Faces of Passion

A South Miami painter creates collaged portraits inspired by her Cuban heritage.

W R I T T E N BY J E N N I F E R P FA F F S M I T H P H O T O G R A P H Y BY M A R Y B E T H KO E T H

n her South Miami studio, Ana Trelles Portuondo is being watched. Her figural portraits—mostly female— gaze intently, as though hinting at sacred stories masked beneath layers of paint and collage. “I believe the eyes are the expression of your soul,” the artist muses. “Capturing that expression is, for me, everything.”

To her, however, producing a classical portrait is not enough. Trelles Portuondo goes one step further, modifying background, fabrics and clothing with unassuming materials and bold colors. “Realism is something people love, but I don’t think just drawing something realistically is artistic,” she says. “You have to add more passion and personal influence.”

For this artist, that unique touch stems from her deep-seeded roots in Cuban culture. Born on the Caribbean island, she relocated to Miami with her family at 8 months old. Although too young to recall her birth country, Trelles Portuondo

nurtured it in her imagination growing up, listening to memories her immigrant parents shared at the dinner table. “We thrived with storytelling,” she recalls.

“That’s all they had, their stories.”

The artist went on to garner degrees from Florida International University and launch a 20-year career as a beloved school art teacher. Yet she always created works for herself on the side, discovering a facility in drawing faces. “I was able to capture the expression on everyone, whether it was my father or my husband,” Trelles Portuondo observes. “I loved that, and it intrigued me.”

When she retired from teaching seven years ago, she embraced a new full-time job as an artist on her own terms.

Portraits remain the artist’s clout, and she maintains a strong grasp on characters no matter the series, whether saints, architects or, most recently, AfroCaribbean women. Inspired by the rituals of the Santeria religion, this collection is based on photos of real women from Cuba and Africa she merges to create a powerful image. “I’ve even done men and

transformed them into women,” Trelles Portuondo laughs. “I love showing and bringing out their beauty and strength.”

She begins by sketching the face, enlarging it on gesso canvas using a grid system. The artist then collages materials to introduce texture. Corrugated cardboard could depict an African neck ring; the face could be canvas over canvas. The work transforms from there into an explosion of color, as she uses her palette to convey energies: red expresses passion, love and intensity; green exudes growth and healing; cool and calm blue is her favorite.

Although she has not returned to Cuba, Trelles Portuondo has a longing to visit.

Yet through their life’s work, she and her husband of 36 years, architect Rafael Portuondo—who also emigrated from the island—are sharing their love for their homeland with the next generation. “My parents did it through story,” the artist says.

“I’m doing it through art. My husband is doing it through architecture. To bring that passion to us is beautiful. What we created with that is more beautiful.”

Ana Trelles Portuondo poses with her wire fox terrier, Archie, outside her work space, a corrugated metal structure on her home property in South Miami covered with a flowering vine. “A lot of people use them for farm buildings and storage,” the artist explains. “I thought: Why can’t it be a studio?” Her portraits, inspired by her homeland of Cuba, begin as sketches (below), then transform into collaged paintings (opposite).

Happy Medium Farmhouse style meets sleek modernism in a family’s sophisticated Coral Gables residence.

The mahogany front door of a Coral Gables residence by designer Maggie Cruz opens to reveal a foyer crowned with an RH chandelier. Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace colors the walls. A Noir console complements the owners’ lamp and mirror, while a vintage Turkish rug covers Roca’s Downtown tile flooring in Antracita.

O

ne word looped through designer Maggie Cruz’s mind as she envisioned the interiors of her clients’ new Coral Gables home: balance. She needed to unite the diverging tastes of the owners—the husband wanted a modern, polished look, while the wife desired something more charming and approachable for their family of five. Still, they needed a place that set the right scene for formal entertaining. The designer would have to meet them in the middle, for a warm, contemporary feel that is elegant and refined.

“All the images the wife showed us were more farmhouse, so we had to figure out a way of working that in without taking it too far,” she recalls. “But that’s always the interesting dynamic: trying to come up with a design that makes both husband and wife happy.”

Cruz wasn’t the only one merging styles for the L-shaped structure, lined with expansive windows and glass sliding doors. From the outset, architect Antonio E. Rodriguez set a sophisticated tone that blends opposites. “We tried to balance modern with traditional,” he explains. “The house has a traditional roofline and is fairly symmetrical along the front, but then it has a modern architectural language with glass.” Builder Alex Gil introduced clean-lined coastal materials, found in exotic woods and stones. “We used Brazilian cumaru hardwood for the facial and overhangs and seashell stone from the Dominican Republic on the exterior floors and wall areas to give it a tropical feel,” he says. A stainless-steel cable railing and bronze aluminum louvers add a contemporary twist to the palette.

Cruz took a similar tack with the interiors, countering some of the more modern architectural finishes so nothing was too harsh. For instance, to warm the lower level’s sleek black porcelain flooring, she opted for wooden ceilings, plus light ash and oak finishes for the millwork and built-ins in the kitchen and the family area. The soothing woods allow for the desired farmhouse feel, without being too on the nose. “These spaces are pretty grand, and they’re square-shaped,” the designer notes of the layout. “So when you start adding these materials, they’re going to feel a little more relaxed.” Likewise, the wine cellar’s white oak shelving softens the iron-framed glass doors,

complementing the nearby wood staircase with a striking railing wall of bars of iron.

She used product materials, too, to invoke a cozy environment but strategically played within a neutral palette of organic, earthy tones for a sophisticated look. “A project starts revealing itself to you, and you start seeing what’s appropriate and what’s not,” Cruz explains. “At first, we were exploring the idea of bringing in some color, but it wasn’t the right choice. In the end, playing with texture is what made the most sense.” A cashmere throw tops the living area’s white linen chaise, joined by complementary sofas and armchairs, marble coffee tables and a black stained-wood bench. The family area is home to a chunky linen sofa, a leather armchair, a woven lamp and teakand-rope armchairs. Velvet stools pull up to the marble bar, plush dining chairs surround a long wood table and durable woven rugs throughout ground the spaces with tactility.

Although the interiors are soothingly neutral, the residence isn’t completely absent of color thanks to the property’s lush greenery by landscape designer Ivan Vila. “The design criteria involved simple lines with elegant and rich plant material,” he says. Vila bordered the grounds with oolite boulders and bamboo and arranged plantings such as lemon trees, coconut and large medjool palms, bromeliads and seagrape.

Happily, there was one space in the home where husband and wife shared the same vision: their suite. “They both were in line with wanting it to feel like a sanctuary, a very quiet space— somewhere where they can unwind at the end of the day,” Cruz says. Shades of ivory on the channel-set armchairs, grass-cloth wallpaper and blackout draperies envelop the room with a dreamy presence. For simple elegance in their bathroom, she repeated a marble with soft white veining on the countertops and flooring.

“I picture the wife there, getting ready for her beautiful parties in this glamorous bathroom,” the designer says.

The family brought few items from their previous home to their new address, but one sentimental piece stands out: a collection of antique locks and keys, gathered from their travels over the years, that Cruz had framed in a modern acrylic shadow box—a fitting display of the house’s dichotomy. “It’s a family home but elevated,” the designer says. “Everything has a place and a purpose and was done very intentionally.”
