ATLANTA MARKET BIGGER + BETTER THIS JULY Renewed Interest Optimism, confidence and demand for fresh, in-stock product were the overwhelming sentiments of buyers and sellers who attended Atlanta Market at AmericasMart in January 2021. Retailers and designers, alike, were excited to source in person with protocols in place to keep everyone safe.

As the momentum continues, July’s Market is poised to be an even bigger and better market experience. With more than 2,000 home decor brands presented across hundreds of showrooms and temporary exhibits, Atlanta Market offers a curated, cross-category shopping experience unlike anywhere else, featuring tabletop, housewares, accessories, seasonal decor, fine gifts and much more. Beyond discovering new product, attendees find a community of people who shares a passion for quality and originality.

Reimagined Experience If you haven’t been to the AmericasMart campus in a while, you’ll find a reimagined experience in Building 1, enhancing the ease of discovery for both designers and home furnishings retailers. A remerchandised showroom layout features 130 home decor showrooms on five consecutive floors, open year-round as well as during markets.

The registration lobby and entrances are also receiving a facelift, bringing a fresh look as soon as you step foot on campus.

EXPLORE A THOUGHTFULLY CURATED ENVIRONMENT WHERE TRENDS ARE REVEALED, AND PRODUCTS ARE PERSONAL.

Not-To-Be-Missed This July + Artwork from Leftbank Art, Soicher Marin, Grand Image Home and Wendover Art Group + Soft goods from Amity Home, Lili Alessandra, Peacock Alley and Johanna Howard + Lighting from Currey & Company, Wildwood, Jamie Young Company and Arteriors + Furniture from Noir, Caracole, Gabby and Made Goods + Floor coverings from Dash & Albert, Loloi, Amer and Classic Home + Decorative accents from Global Views, Dôme Deco, Blue Ocean Traders and Port 68 + So much more

Sleek and inviting, the Elevation collection combines woven gray rope on a stainless-steel frame with teak accents. OPPOSITE: The Weekend Retreat and Hamptons collections shown here in a pewter finish.

Design by Lisa Mende.

TIME TO GET OUTSIDE EASE OF LIVING As outdoor living environments continue to rival those indoors, designers are on the lookout for dependable, genuine and innovative furnishings. Enter, Lloyd Flanders, the heirloom-quality outdoor furniture manufacturer on a mission to enhance homeowners’ lives. With impeccable workmanship, timeless style and unmatched comfort, Lloyd Flanders’ furniture achieves this goal, seamlessly. Made from materials that look as good as they last, each collection is handcrafted from the company’s Lloyd Loom® wicker fabric, woven vinyl or teak—and never burrs, cracks or peels.

HIGH ON STYLE ®

800.526.9894 LLOYDFLANDERS.COM LLOYD_FLANDERS

Lloyd Flanders never loses sight of its centuries-old heritage, constantly moving the needle forward to meet the wants and needs of today’s homeowner. “We’ve seen a growing increase in the use of color over the past few years,” says president and CEO Dudley Flanders. “While neutrals are still in high demand, we’re seeing a significant growth in our brighter colored finishes: Denim Blue, Sea Glass and Woodland Green.” Another trend, notes Warren Juliano, senior vice president of sales and marketing, is the “new traditional” design style. “Consumers are mixing and matching classic pieces with bolder, more modern items to create a comfortable, custom look,” he says. A perfect fit for the Lloyd Flanders family.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T

IN TODAY’S WORLD, GOOD DESIGN IS THAT WHICH IS TIMELESS, ATTRACTIVE AND LIVABLE.

HERITAGE MEETS HOME Lloyd Loom® furniture is still made in the same facility where this special process was first developed in 1917.

As an alternative to the then-popular method of wrapping cane around a frame, Marshall Burns Lloyd created a process where cellulose strands were woven into a wicker fabric. Each handcrafted piece of Lloyd Loom furniture made today uses the same process as more than 100 years ago.

LETTER EDITOR’S

Drawn to Design

As we emerge from the pandemic, we’ve all felt the need to be more inspired, by both big ideas and small pleasures. That led me to create a sketchbook filled with some observations on home and living. I’m sharing a page here that’s influenced by stories from this issue.

I hope that you, too, will find your creative spark.

INSPIRING MIND KRISTINE CHIEN

With family roots in a longtime Miami fine art print shop, Kristine Chien set out to rock the print industry with her own bold brands. Among them: Rudie Lee, a modern yet playful collection of home essentials targeted at millennials. Luxe got the backstory on Chien’s journey. rudielee.com

WHAT’S IN STORE

Why did you start Rudie Lee? I worked at my family’s multigenerational print shop every summer since I was 15. Many interior designers and decor enthusiasts would visit our shop looking for something ready to hang. They loved our innovative materials and craftsmanship but didn’t have a file on hand to produce. As a multidisciplinary designer, I launched a unique collection of ready-to-hang art that took advantage of the latest technologies.

Now we’ve evolved with in-house artists and professional craftsmen who

conceptualize and make every product that’s delivered to your door.

Describe the creative vision. Our designs are built on color, novel materials and the unexpected. The rich colors and textures of Miami course through our veins, and we use everything from watercolor to glitter, photography, metal, wood and acrylic.

How can these pieces transform a space?

Every piece is guided by the power of exciting design. For example, our surfboards or balloon dogs are playful yet elegant pieces that are different from what you'll find at most big-box retailers.

This year, we are also adding designs that blend art and purpose, such as high-gloss surfboard growth charts for children that also serve as art piece, functional item and keepsake.

Unassuming in size from its small storefront on Royal Poinciana Way, Haven Palm Beach surprises as an airy, 3,000-square-foot luxury retail destination bursting with art, home and garden accessories, couture jewelry, handbags and apparel. Mass production is a no-no at Haven, with a sole focus on promoting makers.

Wind through the sprawling space with 30-foot ceilings to discover a vibrant array of smallbatch, handmade creations by local and international artisans—like lauded sculptor David Hostetler and Netherlands glassblower Bibi Smit—with products not typically found at other stores or online. Take a shopping break at Haven Cafe for single-origin, estate-grown coffee as well as baked goods; or bring home an arrangement from the in-house florist. The store is constantly evolving and rotating inventory, so if something catches your eye, it’s best to snag it. havenpalmbeach.com

EXPERIENCE NOMAD AT SEAN RUSH

SCENE

DESIGN

Wander into Nomad, artist and interior designer Sean Rush’s experiential lifestyle concept on Antique Row in West Palm Beach, and you’ll be romanced by candlelit spaces showcasing art and globally gathered home furnishings and accessories reminiscent of a private residence in a far-flung destination.

Broken into three exotic vignettes—such as the Living Room, Wine Lounge or Nest with cozy tables—the space is entirely shoppable, from Rush’s art that dons the walls to dining chairs crafted in Morocco and handwoven light fixtures from Bali. A strict departure from typical retail shopping, guests browse and buy while sipping wine from boutique vineyards and noshing on gourmet bites. The idea was sparked by fashion icon Donna Karan’s lifestyle boutique in Sag Harbor, which intermingles with an Italian restaurant. “She reinvented retail, making it more experiential,” says Rush. “To me, that’s where retail is headed. Rather than seeing art on a white wall and trying to imagine it in your own home, at Nomad, you can easily imagine the art or furniture in your space.” nomad.seanrush.com

SOLEMAR

The coastal enclave of Pompano Beach is experiencing a rebirth, with a new pier, on-trend restaurants and developments such as the area’s only on-the-sand luxury condominium Solemar.

Designed to mirror the ocean with a crystalline, wave-inspired façade, the 20-story tower’s resort-style amenities include spa treatment rooms, a wine salon and a media room. Homes showcase open layouts designed to maximize ocean views and are decked out in Italian cabinetry and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, with interiors touched by revered design firm Meyer Davis. All 105 homes are wired with Darwin, a technology that monitors and regulates air, water and light quality—meant to help residents sleep and feel better. solemarbeach.com

LAUNCH

ORNARE | WEST EAST COLLECTION While kitchens and closets are what Brazilian authority Ornare does best, the new West East collection designed by Ricardo Bello Dias, art director for the brand, is meant to spark joy anywhere in the home. The four lines— Ikigai, Shaker, Infinite and Mech—draw design inspiration from distant lands and philosophies, such as Japan’s Ikigai “joy” concept and England’s Shakers, who only made something if it was useful or necessary. The result is a collection that’s both functional and beautiful, offering endless customization options and 350 different finishes. “We saw a need for adaptable furniture and storage solutions that could fit with any area of the home while maintaining a cohesive and elegant aesthetic,” says Claudio Faria, executive director of Ornare USA. ornare.com

With a pedigree that includes acquiring furniture for the royals, Italian designer Marco Sangiorgi has accomplished everything from creating his own high-end swimsuit line to outfitting luxury yachts to meticulously designing and constructing furniture meant to last forever as CEO of Beltempo USA. In today’s world of covetable outdoor living, Sangiorgi highlights three pieces from his collection ideal for summer living. beltempousa.com

MAXIMAL FLAVOR THE GRAMERCY

The Gramercy, a new American brasserie on Miracle Mile in Coral Gables, is turning heads with its opulent Beaux Arts design. Grand columns, velvet-swathed banquettes, a mirrored elevator (to nowhere), a spiral staircase and neon-lit Heartbreak Hotel reception desk all serve as fabulous photo backdrops; it’s almost as if guests are checking into a grand hotel instead of a restaurant. “We wanted to pay tribute to the great hospitality institutions of New York City while remaining true to what we are— a Coral Gables brasserie,” says designer Mark Lehmkuhl of Ghost House Creative Group. “The most comfortable place in the world is the lobby of an old-world hotel so we emulated that while balancing moments of old Florida, like the palm leaf canopy over the cheetahupholstered dining room.” Sip a Negroni and indulge in bistro favorites like a French dip and prime rib as piano music plays in the background. thegramercymiami.com

PARTY OF FOUR This bold teak round table from the Morning Tide collection is elegant yet informal all at once. The famous Cockpit chairs have been among Beltempo’s best sellers for the last 15 years.

THESE DUOS ARE PARTNERS IN LIFE … AND IN DESIGN. AS TOLD TO MARY JO BOWLING

Balancing Act

Ben and Susan Work Homework, San Francisco

SW: At first, we were both skeptical about working together. Ben had a new architecture career, but in my interior design practice, I had a desperate need I knew he could fill. For some time he toggled between two jobs. After a while, we asked ourselves: “Are we really going to do this—be married and work together?” We are so aligned in terms of vision, narrative and goals for the client, that in the end it was effortless.

BW: We respond to our clients’ needs and desires, but we are known for a soft minimalism—or, in some ways, a feminine brutalism. SW: I’d be the “feminine” in that phrase. There’s a tension that we think makes projects so exciting—it’s when opposing forces meet. Generally, Ben is more of a minimalist and prefers less adornment. Though I appreciate that, as a designer I like to get in and mess things up a bit. In the end, we value and find meaning in each other’s perspective, and it balances things out.

Ben and Susan Work at their San Francisco home with their dog, Toby.

LUXESOURCE.COM

BW: At work, we don’t have disagreements; it’s more like a merging of ideas. We might have two competing thoughts, but by hashing it out, they eventually merge into one. It’s more of a push and pull than a conflict, and it leads to the best ideas for sure. The end product is so much richer, and more filled with surprise and unexpected elements. SW: We both like to be strategic about lighting, and we always agree on unconventionally shaped rugs, streaky dramatic shadows, sculptural wall art and travertine. BW: She usually wants to put a banquette in every room, and because it’s an architectural intervention in interior design, I agree.

Kismet Connection Hunter Fleetwood and Mariapaz Fernandez

Fleetwood Fernandez, Los Angeles

HF: We met in a park in Washington, D.C. She had a Dalmatian, and I love dogs, so I said hello. In truth, I was smitten. A year later, she walked into the architecture office where I was working as a new employee. I was dumbfounded and remembered her after all that time MF: I really didn’t remember him! But we became fast friends. We had a lot in common from the get-go, especially both being architects, and we ended up dating, then marrying and then moving to Los Angeles.

LUXESOURCE.COM

HF: We both have a fascination with Los Angeles architecture and its spirit of experimentation and indoor-outdoor living. MF: I was born on the island of Mallorca, and the Spanish approach to architecture resonates here—it’s a natural, Mediterranean feeling.

HF: We seek simplicity. We hew to stylistically simple solutions that have informal derivations and a quiet aesthetic signature. MF: We begin a project by looking at a client’s rituals. We are more interested in what they do every day, and what they appreciate about their daily moments.

HF: Our process is collaborative. We come up with an idea together and pursue it. Married friends ask us how we do it without arguing, and I tell them that when we’re working we never disagree.

MF: We have skills that complement each other. Hunter is good at committing to a concept or idea, and never steering away from it. I am good at spatial interactions and interventions.

HF: At home, Mariapaz doesn’t want anything in the house that is not beautiful.

So, the simplest elements can become a project. We had a plastic Brita pitcher, and we wanted something more attractive, so it became a search for the most beautiful glass pitcher in the world. MF: It is hard not to work 24/7. We try to have non-work time, but work does permeate everything we do. To us, it is all one life.

Common Ground

Heide Hendricks and Rafe Churchill Hendricks Churchill, Connecticut

HH: We are both from the same town, Woodbury, Connecticut. We met at my parents’ house—my family was building a rock wall, and Rafe heard about it and showed up one day. We knew of each other’s families, but we went to different high schools, and we never met before that day. We both moved to New York City a year later and started dating, and we’ve now been married for 25 years.

HH: When it comes to style, I’d say he’s more adventurous, and bolder with colors.

I’m bold when putting things together; like hanging a Renaissance painting next to a modern Abstract Expressionist painting. RC: I’d say we are on the same page. After 25 years, we can walk into an antique shop, and she will be able to pick out exactly the things I like.

photo: lesley unruh.

RC: In college, I majored in sculpture and architecture. But my whole family was in construction, so I grew up in construction— I came to design work as a tradesperson. In New York, I started working on renovations of galleries and loft apartments. HH: I was working in publicity for art museums. But Rafe and I were buying homes, fixing them up and selling them on the side—that’s how we first started working together. It was my hobby before it became my full-time job.

RC: In 2003, we got our first opportunity to work together on a project for someone else.

It was what we called the “New Farmhouse” in Sharon, Connecticut. Heide joined me officially halfway through that project as an interior designer. A lot of firms offer just architecture or just interior design—and working with another firm can be a careful dance, making sure you don’t step on any toes and that you are speaking the same language. We have the advantage of speaking the same language.

ago—one stone on top of the other.

We’re lucky as design professionals, not just because it’s an active market, but because it’s an exciting time of innovation in material development and production.”

Energizing her outlook of late, Schicketanz has partnered with several like-minded prefab home companies on executing her designs. As opposed to trucking in materials and labor, the approach cuts time, energy and a staggering amount of construction waste.

“Producing highly customized homes offsite,” she says, “is really the future.”

A home in Tennessee by Bobby McAlpine and Greg Tankersley boasts a connecting barn that doubles as a play area for grandchildren and an easily convertible party space.

In a sea of change, authenticity’s stronghold sets a reassuring undertone.

Extended time at home “has taught us what serves us as a friend,” says McAlpine.

“Decades ago, we were building houses that we learned to want whereas now, people are asking what the truth is about their life.” Adds Tankersley, “Clients are designing forever homes. I don’t think you can build more green than that.”

SPEAKING A R C H I T E C T U R A L LY RADAR

A strange thing happened this past year: Nobody visited. Stripped of show and distilled to domesticity, slowly, home began to look a bit different. If you ask architecture partners Bobby McAlpine and Greg Tankersley, it began to look like a country house.

“I’ve found that people transfer more of their hearts to their second residence,” explains McAlpine. “A primary home asks, ‘How do I present myself to the world?’ Whereas the second home is all-eyes-off. It’s the truth.” Arguing the shift, the architects cite growing requests for insular amenities like spirited-away offices, accessory dwellings devoted to health and hobby, and outdoor rooms. In the same thread, they’ve observed a return to country home traditions of yesteryear in a departure from open-concept floor plans to “destination kitchens” and defined dining rooms, and in a fresh emphasis on workhorses like mud rooms and cloak rooms. For Tankersley, “beautiful, casual spaces that speak of humility” crystallize the mood switch. “I don’t think anybody finds ego attractive anymore,” he adds.

With e-design now de facto, it’s an interesting time for realizing these shifting ideals of luxury. Architect Peter Pennoyer offers a robust menu of in-house services, from virtual renderings that allow, say, finish sampling under different lighting exposures, to 3D-printed resin models that are accurate down to exterior brick count. The final tier?

Virtual reality, a custom, hyper-realistic model in the cloud that clients access via headset, allowing them to “visit” and further specify their home before ground breaks. The technology has proved valuable on the back end, too. “During Covid, we’ve had meetings between our Manhattan office and our engineers in Connecticut where we’re all ‘together’ in a house in Florida, slapping Post-it notes on a virtual wall,” he laughs. “I think it challenges us to do things that are even more special for each project.”

Technology is also fighting climate change. In California, architect Mary Ann Schicketanz has been championing sustainability for decades. Net-zero principles are as integral to her practice as permits, yet looking forward, she says, will require a more radical stance. “We build the same way we did 5,000 years

Ebb and Flow OSCILLATING SURFACES MAKE WAVES IN THE HOME.

LUXESOURCE.COM

Manhattan architecture-engineering firm edg’s custom interior wall panels and coverings—the first to be designed entirely by Artificial Intelligence—utilize a client’s design preferences and complex technology to offer endless options of visually compelling surfaces.

“I don’t think this is a flash in the pan,” says Josephson. “The more people see that this is achievable, the more people are going to want it and pursue it.”

Creating surfaces with an interesting and compelling presence is exactly what Manhattan architecture-engineering firm edg is doing with its new customizable interior wall applications. While leveraged through 3D printing and AI technology, the firm offers “organic forms” consumers wouldn’t traditionally find in a contemporary box-like apartment building.

“Living in a very ornamental city,” says the firm’s founder, John J. Meyer, “there is a natural desire to be creative when construction is extremely limited to brick and concrete.” Using hundreds of thousands of permutations from one algorithm to create these patterns, the options are limitless when it comes to creating wavelike, fluted or densely repeating patterns.

This reinvigorated biomimicry reminds us that as humans we crave a connection to nature, and as interest in sustainability grows, the future will always be organic.

“No one can deny in these designs that there’s dynamism and movement,” says Josephson. “The things we celebrate most, even in classical art, are decidedly organic.”

VIGNETTE: COURTESY EDG. PRODUCTS: COURTESY RESPECTIVE COMPANIES.

It’s no coincidence that fluted, linear designs are making a major comeback. Often visible on surfaces and architectural details—think interior walls, exterior siding, stairwells and furnishings with wood grains—architects and designers say the undulating design is a nod to nature, offering a soothing, pleasing effect that’s right for the times.

“Many believe the art you hang on the wall is what gives a home character,” says architect Kevin Alter of Alterstudio Architects. “However, I believe architecture allows walls to have their own charisma and not just as a kind of neutral surface, but actually something that has presence. I think that is powerful.” The oscillating details create a sense of coziness—akin to hygge— and standout visual appeal, especially when applied to wood materials, Alter explains.

Similarly, Jonathan Friedman of Torontobased architecture studio Partisans says these striking applications allude to the modernism movement. “It’s a mashup—a lot of different eras are resurfacing right now,” he says. “By looking back and resynthesizing them, we can actually reinvigorate the architecture of today.”

The firm’s Fold House project in southern Ontario, which showcases an undulating pool house structure enveloped into the side of a hill, puts the modern organic concept front and center. Cofounder Alex Josephson says that as these sculptural forms become more accessible, they grow more popular in the residential world.

Inspired by midcentury modernism, the Venice Media Console from Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams (top) features a mahogany veneer with a fluted shape in a soft white finish.

Both Geotzzo Ribbon by Artistic Tile (center, left) and the Terrazzo Renata Fluted Collection by Ann Sacks (center, right) offer fluidity and old-world charm. The Maelstrom side tables by Caleb Woodard Furniture (below), which double as stools, combine curvaceous form and function.

Richard Kennedy Architects looked to the surrounding Arizona landscape to inform the design of the Scottsdale Public Library’s Arabian branch, resulting in a LEED-certified structure that appears as if it was excavated from the Earth.

Terra-cotta walls, a stone roof and intersections of steel and glass create the feeling of being immersed in a canyon. Inside the central courtyard, light pours into the building’s angled windows, casting a bronze glow and dispersing dramatic shadows throughout. scottsdalelibrary.org

One of the surviving relics of decadent early20th-century New York is linked to none other than Gilded Age banker J.P. Morgan. An avid collector, Morgan commissioned a personal library by architect Charles F. McKim in 1906, which later became public in 1924. Three levels of books soar upward of 30 feet to a ceiling of ornate lunettes and spandrels depicting signs of the zodiac and famous contributors to the arts and sciences, cementing itself as an impressive example of American Renaissance style. themorgan.org

Libraries have long been a communal gathering place and beacons of optimism, and the colorful façade of the Chicago Public Library’s Independence branch is both literally and figuratively brightening the neighborhood. In a brilliant move of urban planning, atop the two-story, 16,000-square-foot library proudly sits four floors of affordable and senior housing apartments. A challenge in and of itself, John Ronan Architects succeeded in ensuring that the mixed-use building accommodates—and inspires—residents and visitors alike. chipublib.org

GOOD SPIRITS BUNSA STUDIO

Designer Jennifer Bunsa aims for each project to be distinct. “I like for the personality of my clients to shine through—it should really be all about them,” she explains. When the time came to renovate a residence in Connecticut for homeowners in the food and wine industry, devoting a separate area in the house to a beautiful bar was agreed upon from the outset. jenniferbunsa.com Where is the bar located in the house?

The renovated room you see here is actually a connector between two historic structures that date back to 1790. It’s really the first thing you see when you walk in the front door. I wanted the shiplap to echo the exterior of the old farmhouse while the reclaimed beams nod to original wooden posts unearthed during building.

How is this spot used? Because of the homeowners’ line of work, we wanted to craft a special space for pouring beautiful wine and stirring cocktails—this is important to them. The wife also makes coffee here each morning, sits down and has a moment to herself after the children go to school. I like to think this nook provides a calming influence at any time of the day.

Talk to us about the materials. The idea was to create contrast within the room but to keep it elevated with warmer tones and textures like the charred pine cabinetry, striking marble surfaces and unlacquered brass hardware, which is used throughout the home. I worked closely with Amuneal on the design and they completely understood the vision!

In Weston, Connecticut, Jennifer Bunsa incorporated a Vola faucet, Miele coffee maker and Sub-Zero wine refrigerator into the bar space she designed with Amuneal, which features charred pine cabinetry and brass detailing. Benjamin Moore’s Simply White decorates the walls; the leather chairs are by Bassam Fellows.

SHELF LIFE

Master fabricators Amuneal do it all—from creating doors and stairways to designing sleek kitchens and closets—but the brand’s sophisticated bar configurations are truly top of the line. CEO Adam Kamens discusses what goes into creating these polished vignettes. amuneal.com Make the bar specific to the space.

It’s common to see these areas against a wall but Jennifer Bunsa took a look at every angle in her project and created a beautiful combination with mounted, see-through shelving that incorporates the rest of the home.

Consider the finishes. Texture is very important and can actually create depth and warmth within a space. Shou sugi ban was used here, and we actually take the wood and char it, creating a very tactile effect.

Fabricate a focal point. Concealed bars used to be very popular but now people are really embracing these elegant schemes and making them an anchor of the room.

Mix up shelving. Amuneal offers open and closed storage, as shown here. Sometimes you want to hide the mess. Doors can create a nice weight, while open shelving adds airiness.

BAR NECESSITIES

When outfitting the bar, don’t overlook the essentials: consider appliances, fittings, hardware and ice. Elevate your sipping experience with these market introductions.

Jolee Fennebresque of Fennebresque Interiors knew that a moody statement bar was on her client’s must-have list for her new-build home in Charlotte, North Carolina. But it wasn’t until Fennebresque saw the Tropical Storm Quartzite at the stone yard that the scheme started to take shape: the honey tones of the countertops

complement a custom brown-black paint color, setting the ideal backdrop for the art adorning the walls. To add warmth, she opted for brass detailing unifying the hardware, lighting, sink and faucet.

Warm Embrace THE SEASON’S NUANCED, REASSURING PALETTES UNDERSCORE THE INNATE COMFORT OF COLOR.

Color is personal and visceral, the perfect hue as cosseting as a cashmere wrap. Just ask designer Danielle Balanis, who swathed the walls of her office in an uplifting sage green and the ceilings in a sunny paisley wallpaper. Formerly the shadowy basement of her Mountain Brook, Alabama residence, Balanis made it her mission to imbue the newly crafted work-from-home space with optimism and inspiration, relying on garden-fresh tones and her collections of cherished artworks and antiques. “The colors are healing,” she says. “It’s my cocoon of creativity. I come down here, get lost and find my groove.”

WR I T T E N AN D PR O DUC E D BY G R ACE BE ULEY HUNT

“Mustard is my number one, go-to color,” effuses designer Danielle Balanis. As testament, buffalo check portieres, Schumacher’s Katara paisley wallpaper on the ceiling and gimp fabric trimming the millwork bring a cheerful disposition to her otherwise deep green office space. daniellebalanis.com

Raised between Istanbul and Washington, D.C., interior designer Sara Bengur has a unique perspective on color associations. Luxe caught up with Bengur in the vibrant family room of a Manhattan client to hear her hot take on hue. sarabengur.com Where does a palette begin? I start by going to my clients’ homes with a giant bag full of fabrics, paint samples and carpets. I tell them to choose textures and colors they like— no stress, no ‘where would it go?’—just pure instinct. The pile they create becomes my starting point.

Tell us about this room. The inspiration was the Proportio Exhibit at Palazzo Fortuny at the Venice Biennale, which my clients had seen and loved. In Venice, you notice lots of layers and rich colors. The room faces east onto a courtyard, so I felt using warmer tones of red and orange would ground the space.

Advice for the color-shy? There’s a big difference between vegetable and commercial dyes. One thing I’ve found is that if you stick with natural vegetable dyes, and combine similar tones, you don’t get that unnecessary stimulation.

GLOBAL FLAIR

What shades bring you comfort? Growing up in Turkey and vacationing in the Mediterranean, it was layers of ochre, terra-cotta and turquoise—whereas blue and green are the calming colors of the west. I find it fascinating that different cultures have different views on what nurtures.

Where are you drawing inspiration lately? Anywhere!

It could be an artwork or a great dress. The other night, I was watching the movie Luxor, and spied this Egyptian ferry painted in the most beautiful patterns of blue, red and peach. I had to pause and snap a picture.

I’ll probably end up incorporating it somewhere.

BEATA’S COLOR NOTES

TEAL

“Blue is a really nice way of adding color without it feeling too dominant.”

Naivasha Cotton / warrisvianni.com

OFF-WHITE

“I almost always use this particular white on the ceilings, which has a bit of gray to it.”

Strong White Paint / farrow-ball.com

PERFECT COCKTAIL “People think of our work as colorful, but if you actually look it’s quite neutral and restrained in a way,” insists designer Beata Heuman. Take for instance this London snug, where orange tigers prance across the walls and a theatrically canopied azure sofa stares down a moss green rug. Somehow, the tone is serene.

“Generally, I do neutral backdrops with flashes of color where you wouldn’t expect it,” explains Heuman, whose whimsical portfolio shines in her new book, Every Room Should Sing. “In this room, the traditional order would have been plain walls and pattern on the furniture, so we tried to invert that.”

Another trick: Using the same white paint across a home’s ceilings and woodwork, a move she deems “really important to tying things together.”

Heuman credits her philosophy to a deep-seated passion for art, citing Vermeer’s color mastery in particular as aspiration. “Think of his paintings.

They’re all dark and neutral, and then you’ll spot these flashes—a white collar, a red lip.” Similarly, “every room needs a pop of color,” she says. “Here, it’s the red beak of the bird on the pillow, and I have to say, that pillar box red is great. If a room doesn’t feel quite vibrant enough, adding a tiny splash of it can really lift things.” beataheuman.com

GRASS ROOTS DESIGNER BENNETT LEIFER SHARES THE QUARANTINE COLOR JOURNEY THAT MADE HIM LOVE HIS APARTMENT AGAIN. AS TO L D TO G R AC E BE ULE Y HUN T

My dad worked in finance, but he was very artistic. When I was a child, we’d spend weekends at the tiki bar in my grandparents’ basement painting and drawing. In college, I studied art history (as well as business), and I’ve always admired landscapes in particular.

There’s this pensive, thoughtful quality to oil paintings that I love staring at—something about those rich, botanical greens.

Which brings us to Covid. I had become a bit of a workaholic, rolling out of bed, crawling into sweatpants, going to the computer, and before I knew it, the day was done. I was looking for a hobby, and I thought, ‘Why not try oil painting?’

I did a ton of research, ordered my materials, and set out for the park near my apartment.

I have to tell you, it was … truly embarrassing.

There I was setting up the easel with an instruction manual, dabbing at my painter’s palette. At first there was this fear of judgment, but pushing through that fear to the other side was really wonderful.

As the weather grew cold, I came inside and realized I needed a dedicated space for my hobby. Rekindling my love of botanical green, I began refreshing my apartment, starting in

the living room where I got rid of my enormous dining table (since I haven’t been entertaining at scale), adding a tea table for meals and artwork in its place. Then, I began pulling in threads of green scattered through my home.

My favorite decorative screen—a gift from deGournay—used to sit in the foyer where I never saw it. Now, it anchors the space.

Similarly, I had a beautiful Tai Ping carpet in my bedroom, where it’s wonderful, sweeping pattern of green and blue was hidden under a mattress. Now, I enjoy it every day. I added plants and reconceived my art collection.

You know those moments when you just feel chic at home? The other night, I was FaceTiming with a friend, drinking from a green Baccarat glass, and I thought, ‘I feel chic!’ And I think it’s because I’m living in color. Green is amazing: It’s that perfect lagoon water, that perfect emerald jewel, that perfect eye color.

There are these few tones of green that just make me smile. bennettleifer.com

COTTAGES OF HOPE A Local Campus With Cottages of Hope for Children in Foster Care KidSanctuary Campus was founded in 2009 by Connie Frankino with a mission to ensure that each child that lives on campus receives the benefits of a sense of belonging and permanency in a caring and positive environment that nurtures self-esteem and hope.

The children stay in one of four debt-free designer cottages on a private 10-acre campus with a beautiful outdoor pavilion in West Palm Beach until they are reunited with parents, adopted or age out of the system.

Center will serve as the nucleus for children living on campus and will provide programs and activities designed for healing and hope.

Angel Crossing Enrichment Center (Coming Soon)

The 1000 Wishes Ambassadors Campaign was launched to build a 7,732-square-foot enrichment center, and to complete and name the campus. We are happy to say that with the support of the community we are near our goal. The Angel Crossing Enrichment

Special Thanks To the Ongoing Support of Joe Fava and His Team at Fava Design Group Joe has been involved in the design of the four cottages on campus and is now leading the Designer Dream Team to build the new enrichment center.

With the firm belief that surrounding oneself with one’s ideal of aesthetic beauty, health and wellbeing is the key to flourishing, the team at Fava Design Group creates bespoke spaces tailored to each client’s version of those ideals. As the visionary behind the firm, Joe believes that harmonious and tasteful design has the potential to evoke positive effects both emotionally and physically. He collaborates with each client to design places that are not only visually pleasing, but foster this idea of health and well-being. These projects become a reflection of their owners, honed by expertise, creativity and imagination. Joe’s personal inspirations include color, art, travel and fashion, and with these muses at hand, he continues to push the boundaries of design even after 20 years in business. Published for their contemporary, transitional and traditional projects alike, Fava Design Group can design a traditional Northeastern residence or a contemporary masterpiece in South Florida. Philanthropy, too, is a part of the portfolio. A focus on at-risk children has always been a core value for Joe, who not only acts as design director for KidSanctuary, but also collaborates with St. Vincent’s in Baltimore, Maryland. Next up for Joe is the development of turnkey projects, with two underway and two in the works.

To date, KidSanctuary Campus has served nearly 100 children, with the average length of stay being six months to a year on a case-by-case basis.

One child stayed on campus for six years. While they vary in age and ethnicity, with cultural differences and unique backgrounds, the trauma of abuse and neglect unites them on this campus of hope and healing.

Become a KidSanctuary Campus Ambassador and directly impact the lives of local foster care children!

Connie M. Frankino KidSanctuary Founder & Visionary Chairman of the Board

Debra M. Tornaben

KidSanctuary Campus President of Development

TRENDS IN RENOVATION In the hands of the building and renovation pros on the following pages, houses become homes, outfitted with every comfort, convenience and high-tech amenity. Whether a kitchen island-turned-study station, a home office-turned-workout space or a bedroom-turned-Zoom room, the lines of design have blurred.

But their focus remains clear to honor the unique voice and soul of every project. Through communication and collaboration, they deliver livable designs that find the line between purpose and beauty—all with one overarching goal: to create happy, healthy homes for people to live in, work in, and love.

artists, designers and makers behind Belt. Together, husband-and-wife Louis Beltran and Luz Garcia, and their children, Valentina and Federico Beltran, work to bring handcrafted, wholly bespoke pieces to life—or back to life. Asked to talk about their renovation work, the quartet notes that while the restoration of stairs, balcony railings and exterior doors and gates is most common, wall accents and sculptures are on the list, too. No matter the particular project, the Belt team is known for involving clients as much as they desire. “We invite them to join us in the creative process, building a bond and trust that creates a sense of confidence.”

FROM POST TO PUBLIC HOUSE “There are a couple of renovations where we have stood out, especially those heritage projects where we had to maintain a certain style and design line, ensuring that new pieces meet the standard of old ones,” Louis says. “A great example of a historic restoration commissioned to Belt was the old post office pavilion in Washington, D.C., which was transformed into a beautiful hotel. We had to provide several design options to the architects, designers and the owner, and they got approval from the city committee, which had quite a few guidelines for restoration.”

Who better to renovate a legacy home than the architect behind its larger community? In the early 1990s, Harry Gandy Howle helped to guide the initial design of communities like John’s Island, Gem Island and Orchid Island, and today, he and the team at his namesake firm (led also by senior associate James Stein) are responsible for some of the most ethical and successful remodels in the area. Asked to share how they do it, Howle points to a philosophy of cohesion. “As I often tell

Three decades after first designing a home for IBM great Francis “Buck” Rodgers, Harry Gandy Howle + Associates was hired by a couple with grown children and grandchildren to renovate the same property.

“They wanted a more relaxed, seaside cottage that made the most of every square foot,” Howle shares. Now, the family has a game room, exercise area and extra storage space. “The joy that both families experienced in this home is gratifying,” Howle says. “I believe the vision that Buck originally imparted lives on.”

my clients, whatever your taste in architecture and design, take a look around your area. Does everything else feel traditional, transitional, modern? You can reinterpret in ways that are unique to you, but maintaining a sense of regionality adds much to the effect of timelessness.” Patience, too, plays a role. “Renovations are inherently more complex than new builds. Bringing them up to code and new lifestyle standards is no small feat.”

Top A favorite project for the whole team, this John’s Island renovation brought new architectural details and a view of the custom putting green from the entrance and dining room.

Forward, tailored, custom—these three words encompass the philosophy behind Roye and its passionate principal interior designers, Robert Zemnickis and Yessenia Cardenas. “Our goal is always to reflect the essence of a home’s residents,” Zemnickis says. “We build lasting interiors and furniture to enhance and amplify our clients’ needs and wants.” To that end, renovation is certainly in its suite of services. Cardenas sheds some light on what updates South Florida’s high-end homeowners are aiming for. “I see design getting more elemental and very sophisticated at the same time. One fascinating trend is the use of stone (real or digital) in more unusual ways.

We’ve seen it on cabinet faces and vertical surfaces, and dramatic veining is decidedly ‘in.’” In the end, though, Roye’s goal is not to showcase any specific trends. It’s to design environments that enhance the lifestyles of their inhabitants.

“Homeowners are seeking out gazebos, meditation corners and home gyms, and the materials are bright, earthy and environmentally and ethically responsible.” He also notes that cooking is back—big time.

Under new ownership, a Gulf Stream residence is updated by the same hands that built it 25 years ago.

F

ate has a way of showing up in unexpected places. When a Gulf Stream couple with three children was in need of a general contractor to renovate their new oceanfront residence, they turned to Terry Cudmore because of the community work he’d done with a local non-profit close to their hearts. As it turns out, they got an even surer sign it was meant to be: He was the one who constructed the house more than 25 years ago.

The structure was a replica of a nearby home Cudmore had built for another couple in 1991.

“Those owners wanted the exact same house but with a bigger pool,” he recalls of the original residence. “So I built the identical house—same tiles, cabinets, color, everything—just with a slightly different layout for the garages and a larger pool.”

Although the new residents loved the footprint of the original Mediterranean-style home, they wanted a more modern, cleaner style that maximized the ocean views. So Cudmore and architect Rustem Kupi stripped the structure down to its studs, creating a more Anglo-Caribbean appearance with a cedar shake roof and outriggers as well as wood window and door frames.

Inside, they moved the elevator and added windows in the informal dining and family areas to open up the rear of the residence and ensure the flow of natural light. To accommodate the family’s lifestyle, they converted the library into a home theater and the office into a guest suite, replaced the terrace off the main bedroom and covered in the double-height ceiling in the entryway to create an extra bedroom.

“We wanted it to be sleek, clean and peaceful— very white, earthy tones,” the wife says. “The goal was to give it a more elegant and sophisticated look in some parts of the house, without being stuffy. I wanted people to be able to come in from the beach and feel comfortable, not cold.”

With that in mind, interior designer James Woodrow Taylor made sure the decor embodied simple, modern elegance. Light, natural tones— off-whites, neutrals, grays—as well as warm wood and leather textures bring a cozy intimacy to the lofty space. In the vaulted living area at the home’s heart, he positioned a wide, low-back sectional that provides the perfect perch for ocean views.

“It’s low-key, nothing in excess,” Taylor says.

“We used no more furniture than we needed to accommodate a normal amount of people.”

Kupi also created custom wood paneling and millwork as well as a minimalist, geometric railing around the mezzanine to help bring down the scale of the living area and allow the natural light to stream through. “The owners wanted to keep the home light and airy,” he says. “Even though there’s quite a bit of casings and moldings, it’s very simple and clean.”

That’s not to say there aren’t surprising irreverent moments amid the serenity. A trio of surfboards on a living area wall elevates the nautical, beach aesthetic, while sculptural light fixtures anchor many rooms, adding bursts of texture and intrigue to the otherwise minimal space. The backyard is just as restrained, featuring a large pool and a spacious lawn where the children can play, all prefaced by the Atlantic Ocean. “I wanted the inside of the house to have a less-is-more kind of feeling, and the backyard is a continuation of that,” the wife says. Around the perimeter, landscape architect Dave Bodker installed plants such as clusia, seagrape, thatch palms, mangosteen, green island ficus and sun rose. “We wanted to preserve the ocean view,” he says. And to ensure privacy from the adjacent neighbors, he added high, dense, multi-trunk palms that also provide a lush, tropical backdrop.

Although Cudmore has many great memories of the original residence, he’s satisfied with its newest incarnation. “It’s even better now than it was,” he says. “Rusty thought of every little detail. It was a good house then, and it’s still a good house.”

espite our best efforts, nature never remains neat and tidy in South Florida.

This is, after all, the land of lightning, weaving waterways and vast tree roots cracking through concrete. Yet whether formed by root tendrils or electric bolts, these forces all seem to follow a recurring web-like pattern. This secret architecture underscoring the natural world proves intriguing for Delray Beach artist Jill Hotchkiss. “It’s like a sacred geometry, representing the bonds that exist between all life forms,” she says of this mysterious pattern depicted in her ink drawings, carved wood reliefs, drywall sculptures and oxidized copper panels.

Recreating these forms requires some biomimicry. In her ink pieces, for example, Hotchkiss often pours, blows and rolls the liquid across the paper. “Sometimes I don’t even touch the surface,” she notes. “I just put the two elements together and see what patterns are created.” These drawings also become the template of the artist’s wood reliefs, for which she carves out the outline and gilds the final shape in metals like 24-karat gold leaf.

Whether working with warm cedar or sooty India ink, she often leaves the materials raw to enhance their natural qualities.

These abstractions formed the foundation of Hotchkiss’s practice since her earliest years as a resident at Oolite Arts and further developed during her masters in fine arts at the Pratt Institute. But something shifted when she returned to South Florida two years ago, opening her studio at the Arts Warehouse. The artist continued experimenting with sketching plants, tapping into her affinity for Victorian botany illustrations. “I loved the idea of silhouetting the plants to see their forms,” she says.

Hotchkiss infuses this representational style in her latest series of gilded botanical drawings on 14-foot-tall paper scrolls, most recently on display at the Cornell Art Museum. Showing the entire plant system, she uses her freewheeling abstract techniques to create the subterranean labyrinth of roots and combines them with intricate illustrations depicting the lush canopy growing above. This contrast provides “a symbiosis balancing control and chaos,” the artist says.

Striving for such aesthetic harmony also implies hope for a more unified relationship with nature—one that seeks to learn and preserve, rather than dominate. “Nature has all this invisible wisdom,” Hotchkiss muses. “A lot of that can be mimicked in the way humans live.”

In transforming a waterfront retreat, a designer harnesses the feel of a breezy boutique hotel.

She rounded out the scene with an ottoman and Artesia’s Binah chair from Victoria’s Armoire, a Frontgate coffee table, a side table from Nadeau and Selamat’s Sona settee.

early 1,400 miles from the Windy City, a Chicago couple came upon an oceanfront Coconut Grove residence that caught their eye as a potential vacation home. Panoramic views of Biscayne Bay from the doubleheight living area instilled an immediate sense of relaxation, and the house offered plenty of room for their blended family— six children between them. Yet the structure’s dark woods and brown marble flooring didn’t exactly align with their idea for a coastal retreat. “She has a refined boho aesthetic in her fashion and interior sense,” designer Rebekah Zaveloff says of one of the owners. “They didn’t want a fussy house where people don’t feel comfortable.”

It was a vision shared by Zaveloff, whom the couple entrusted with channeling their concept for the project. The designer put forth a plan to create a vacation house without the usual beach tropes, instead gathering inspiration from her travels to Morocco, Italy and Mexico. “The goal was to create a warm, organic, modern vibe that was casual but elegant,” she says.

First, though, a renovation was in order. Working with builders Julio Lopez and Michael Hawkins as well as architect of record Jose A. Vidal of V3 Architectural Group, Zaveloff replaced the dark floors with a light-toned French limestone, then overhauled the enclosed kitchen and breakfast area. “We opened up the space and added new windows, which gave the clients a view of downtown,” Lopez says. New cerused-oak cabinets and Calacatta Bluette marble countertops brighten the space, while a wall of zellige tile with a trellis pattern adds a desired Moroccan nod.

Indeed, tile played a large role in the design, used as a tool for Zaveloff to add pattern, texture and uniformity. “I knew it would create a sense of cohesiveness by updating all the bathrooms with the same type of flooring but in different patterns,” she explains. Layering on top, she introduced vintage rugs—including a massive patchwork in the living area—to bring in a sense of casual patina and soft, sun-bleached hues that play to the owners’ bohemian aesthetic.

Guest bedrooms needed to accommodate any of the couple’s children at a time, so Zaveloff drew upon her background in hospitality for her approach to the private spaces. “I treated it like a boutique hotel,” she says. “I wanted the bedrooms to feel personal and homey, rather than sterile and impersonal.” Extra bedroom pieces like rattan daybeds make a whimsical statement while also offering additional accommodations, and relaxed textiles such as Moroccan cotton blankets and linen duvet covers in soft blues, beiges and grays inject an organic feel. The living area, too, acts as a lobby—a collection of sofas in sunbaked clay hues forms a gathering spot to take in the view— and wood and rattan furnishings throughout maintain an island vibe.

Durability and comfort were key in the design, but Zaveloff made sure to balance family-friendly elements with touches of glamour, particularly fixtures. “When you have kids, the best way to add elegance to a house without worrying about things getting broken is lighting,” she says. “I like the tension between something really glam, like a Murano fixture against a muted background and a casual environment.” The designer proved her point with pairings such as the dining area’s feather-like Italian glass chandelier above a natural wood table and striking vintage-inspired sconces that adorn the bathrooms.

Zaveloff approached the exterior in a similar spirit as the interior, outfitting the oversize loggia with wood and resin wicker furnishings, textiles in muted hues and organic touches such as decorative baskets. Landscape designer Benjamin Torres joined in the transformation, adding muchneeded color to the grounds. “The only things that were there were the huge bamboo and the coconut palms,” he says. “We had to do everything from scratch.” Flowering vines now climb the exterior façade, and plantings like red ginger frame a seating area.

The owners unlocked the doors of their new retreat as soon as they could, making several trips a month to the balmy surrounds. “I loved the idea of creating a home for somebody that was literally turnkey,” Zaveloff says. “You feel at home the minute you walk in the door.”

The hunt for one-of-a-kind decor for a West Palm Beach high-rise takes a designer on an unforgettable journey.

ever underestimate the power of first impressions. When Lynda Nitabach approached designer Amir Khamneipur at an event in West Palm Beach, he was captivated by her singular style. “She was wearing a fabulously unique outfit that stood apart from everyone else,” he recalls. “Her jewelry was incredible. I immediately understood that Lynda was someone who liked the best but looked for unique, standout items.

That’s the night the journey began.”

The “journey” was the renovation of Lynda and Bob Nitabach’s 18th-floor condominium at The Bristol, the city’s new luxury high-rise where Khamneipur had designed the clean, tailored units and common spaces. “I wanted The Bristol to be a space where owners who were collectors and connoisseurs could walk through and feel the subtleties of details,” he says. “I wanted the spaces to feel rich with quiet moments and bold with textures.”

That vision appealed to Lynda, who believed the creation of their residence at The Bristol should be more like a curation. “I insisted every single thing be one-of-a-kind and extraordinary,” she says.

“I have a very big personality, and it’s a quirky one, so I wanted the choices we made to reflect that.”

It made sense, then, that Khamneipur was the right person to translate that charisma into the Nitabachs’ home.

To locate those exceptional finds for the unit, there was only one thing to do: “Lynda, Bob and I were to visit every gallery and showroom known to man,” Khamneipur laughs. The trio traveled so far as Paris, where they spent four days on an hour-by-hour itinerary being chauffeured from atelier to atelier, in and out of artist’s homes, meeting the very creators of each item purchased. “I have an experience with every piece in my home,” Lynda says.

The result is a collected residence that evokes the feel of a Parisian gallery right from the elevator foyer, where a stacked console and circular mirror are among the souvenirs from the group’s overseas excursion. Overhead, a chandelier made of melted glass rods mimicking a cloud shape injects a sense of whimsy that continues throughout the interiors. “ ‘Unforgettable’ is everyone’s first impression,” Lynda says. “This home tells a story—and there are stories in the middle of stories.”

Much of the residence’s playfulness is owed to its contemporary artwork, particularly sculptures.

After seeing an Annie Morris piece in their Paris hotel, Lynda acquired a smaller one for a living area coffee table, situated not far from a Haas Brothers monster sculpture. Nearby, a colorful Mel Bochner painting hangs above a curvy Fernando Botero figurine. “When I walk by and see those things practically touching, I smile, because I think it’s so funny and pleasurable that you could put those two things next to each other,” she muses.

In the main bedroom, a Rob Wynne artwork reflects daylight above the bed.

Furnishings read artistic as well—a result of Lynda’s challenge for Khamneipur to secure everyday items that are entirely out of the ordinary. “I had said to him, ‘Listen, I don’t want lamps,’ ” she recalls. “ ‘I want something that lights up—do not bring me a lamp.’ ” The designer’s response: animal-like forms that illuminate the living area. Sofas and armchairs show off elegant curves, a living area floor lamp doubles as a ceramic sculpture and the dining area chandelier emulates a chunky necklace.

Even what could have been traditional bronze handles to the main suite have a twist: Designed

by Khamneipur, they masquerade as snakes slithering on the doors.

Working with general contractor Paul Clippinger, the designer oversaw a minor renovation of the unit, installing Ornare closets throughout and bringing in an artist to hand-sculpt plaster walls in the elevator foyer. The home’s masterful mix of what Khamneipur calls “noble” materials— natural ones that withstand time—are his own artistry, honed over years of practice. “The longest relationship I have ever had has been with materials,” he jokes. White marble floors shine with gray shades of crystals, pieces with unlacquered bronzes will age with patina and woods offer varying textures, including a dining table with macassar ebony, living area armchairs with beechwood frames and touches of walnut throughout—polished, satin and sandblasted.

To Khamneipur, the final look is a visual memoir of an adventure embarked with clients who were willing to take chances. “It’s a recording of a journey,” he says. “The interior feels like a stack of inspired playing cards, each with a story, shuffled and then magnetically drawn together to align in harmony.”

In the eyes of the nation’s most successful real estate experts, this presents an opportunity to connect clients to their dreams like never before.

COMMUNITY + CULTURE Beyond one’s own living room, Nautilus 220 offers even more. Individual guest suites invite you to welcome family and friends to vacation where you live, and proximity to an active marina with 100 boat slips further extends the possibilities. The sixthfloor resort pool deck stretches for nearly 1 acre, overlooking the marina, Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. Other amenities include private beach club access, a movie lounge, game room, golf simulator, pool table, putting green, Peloton studio, 24-hour security, valet and self-parking, a café in the lobby and more. Nothing, it seems, was overlooked.

FINISHES, FIXTURES, FEATURES Priced from the $700,000s to more than $3 million, and set to be completed in early 2024, Nautilus 220 includes residences that range from 2 to 3 bedrooms and 1,500 to 3,400 square feet. Within that space, the luxurious specs abound …

Given Florida’s reputation for stunning waterside homes, it’s sometimes difficult to impress with something new. But Nautilus 220 has certainly managed it. The 330condominium pair of towers boasts unobstructed views of the water and perfectly suits the coveted lifestyle of the famed Palm Beaches. Its premier location is perhaps only rivaled by the elegance of its design and abundance of amenities, and it all represents the vision of Peter Baytarian. The builder and developer has been a foremost voice in his profession for more than 30 years—a fact he attributes in part to his architect father and real estate broker mother. Of this his latest triumph, Baytarian says, “We wanted to encompass the modern lively life of luxury. We envision our buyers to be young professionals and empty nesters, vacation residents and retirees alike. Our goal was to create a resort feel in the heart of the vibrant Palm Beaches.” Fait accompli.
