HOLIDAY SPIRIT FROM OUR HOMES TO YOURS

W

Sandy Matson & Angie Hall

"Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others."

—Cicero ITH THE HOLIDAYS right around the corner there are many types of

people. There’s the Martha Stewart type and the popping-a-tent-in-aparking-lot-’til-the-stores-open type—and then there are the people that can’t stand the other two types! Whatever type you are, don’t underestimate the power of something homemade. It’s always nice to get something personal. If you are looking for a unique gift, check out our annual gift guide. Get out there, mix things up, and perhaps leave your comfort zone to support locally-owned retailers that appreciate your business this holiday season.

Since it is the holiday issue, we thought we would try something a little different. We set out to find front doors in various parts of our city and surrounding areas, showing how they might be decorated for the holidays. Whether decorated for fall or winter, these are examples of what you can do yourself, or have made especially for you. Sometimes just adding a little zippity-doo-dah to your door can spruce things up and get you into the spirit of the holidays. Many people gave their time and talent to create the beautiful arrangements that we used on the featured doors. We would like to thank Jeff Jorgensen of Tannenbaum, Denise Willett of House of J, Ed Aguilera of Holidynamics, Mary Beth Harrold of Papillion Flower Patch, and all the homeowners who let us decorate their doors.

We all look forward to the wonderful food we feast on during the holidays. My partner in crime, Angie, seen next to me in the photo, gave me an awesome stuffing recipe years ago, which is a Thanksgiving casserole, and a meal in itself. It includes turkey, sausage, a loaf of bread and other goodies to season it. Wow, the first time I made it, I thought, well, now I can skip on everything else. Eat this and go straight to the pie. Maybe you eat the traditional turkey, or you pardon the turkey and serve fried chicken, lasagna (my kids favorite), ribs, or brats. Maybe you forgoing cooking altogether and head to a nice restaurant. Whatever you choose, it’s about being together and giving thanks for all the blessings you have.

Happy holidays, happy shopping, and don’t sweat the little stuff, have fun with your loved ones and friends. Even if it’s just you and your four-legged, furry companion, give thanks and enjoy!

Sandy & Angie If you have any ideas you would like to see us tackle or you yourself have a project you would like to have featured, please contact us at sandy@omahapublications.com or angie@omahapublications.com

SELF-MADE, SELF-TAUGHT, SELF-ASSURED INTERIOR DESIGNER ERIC JAMES

A

N INTERIOR DESIGNER would have to possess an

abundance of chutzpah to place a Paul Bunyan-sized silver chalice vase filled with giant sprays of faux white flowers in the middle of a hotel lobby. Eric James not only pulled it off, he pulled everything together inside Omaha’s Hotel Deco XV. Taking his cue from the name of the historic boutique hotel at 15th and Harney streets, James created a wonderland of Art Deco décor that transports a visitor to a time synonymous with elegance and a post-World War I “anything goes” mentality. “It’s early 1930s glam and glitz, one of the highlights of my career so far,” says James, 40.

Clean lines, geometric patterns, bold accessories, and lots of mirrors surrounded by a sea of black and white, chrome and crystal, offer a stunning look into the past with a decidedly modern twist.

Small crystal beads that cover one wall, a sheath of tufted velvet on another wall, and sofa pillows in hues of gray with raised fabric designs reveal James’ eye for a variety of textures.

The designer’s balancing act is evident in the accessories and sculpted art pieces found on tables, stairwell ledges, and window sills: white beside black, tall beside small, round beside square.

“As I’ve developed my business, I’ve become very good at fabrics and florals, two of the hardest things to do,” James says. “To get a style to flow with fabrics and flowers is difficult, but for some reason it comes naturally to me.”

Born Eric James Seymour in the Ponca Hills/Florence section of Omaha, the boy who toyed with the idea of becoming a marine biologist found he had a knack for taking his mother’s old decorations to create a unique, functional space in his bedroom.

Pretty soon, family and friends started asking for his help with their houses.

“I’m a self-taught person, very hands-on. I imagine the whole space and then just do it,” he says. “It’s my passion.” >

“I’m a self-taught person, very hands-on. I imagine the whole space and then just do it.”

-Eric James

< After spending two years in management and sales at the nowclosed Z Gallerie at Village Pointe, James 10 years ago started his own business, Interiors by Eric James, and dove in headfirst.

Traditional? Sure. Contemporary? Absolutely. Funky? Why not?

Rustic? No prob.

“I’m working on a farmhouse in rural Iowa that started as a kitchen remodel and has turned into a whole house remodel,” James says.

“We built an all-season room with raw wood flooring—knots and cracks and all. The room has exposed beams throughout, a wall of jagged stone, two oil-rubbed bronze chandeliers, and high-back wing chairs of cowhide. Very unique.”

/ H12 /

OmahaHome • November/December 2015

One of James’ greatest assets involves the ability to listen to a client.

“I asked him to style our house and his ability to interpret our wishes and bring them to fruition was awesome,” raves Chris Hamilton, a hair stylist. She says James preferred to work while they were out of the house, “so when we walked in, the transformation was just incredible.”

James’ upbeat, positive personality, his willingness to please a client (“I never argue with people,” he says), his eclectic designer palette, and “reasonable prices” keep new and repeat customers calling.

“I’ve never had an unhappy client,” he says. “If I did, I couldn’t sleep at night.” OmahaHome Visit interiorsbyericjames.com to learn more.

FAIRYTALE WONDER A REGAL RESIDENCE IN LEGACY VILLAS

S

TEVE A ND BA R I McCormick's Euro-influenced

home in the gated Legacy Villas development draws much attention for its enchanted kingdom appearance.

The French country-style house stands apart from conventional residences for its distinctive features. Start with the decorative 30-foot-high turret. Add the projections, peaks, gables, eyebrow windows, stone-stucco-brick finish, carriage-style garage doors, and sweeping flow of the home on a raised and curved lot.

Castle-like embellishments include lions-head door-knockers.

There's a secluded courtyard in front and a wrap-around deck and landscaped patio with water feature in back.

Inside are arches, alcoves, recesses, high ceilings, massive solid wood beams, two large fireplaces, built-in bookcases, and a spiral staircase.

This Princess Bride look comes from the Storybook Collection of Missouri-based Ron Hill's Euro World Designs. The couple worked closely with Hill in conceiving the home. Steve owned his own full-service realty company and developed many properties and spec homes. Bari's always taken an active role with him to get things just right in their own homes. They both have a good eye and know enough to tell designers and builders how things should be done.

"We just know how we wanted it," Bari says of their Legacy place. "It's not an intimidating thing to either one of us. We like the process and we like to see it completed. It's fun."

They fell in love with Hill's work after touring homes he designed at the lake near Branson where they have their second home.

The McCormicks’ cozy cottage evokes memories of Hansel and Gretel, or perhaps the Hobbit.

Steve served as the project's general contractor. He built the courtyard and water feature himself. >

November/December 2015 • omahamagazine.com

At Home

< Ever since the home began taking shape in 2011 it's provoked interest.

"It still does," Bari says. "People come by this house weekly— stop, take pictures, come to the door and ask, 'where did you get this?' or 'what color is that?' We have a lot of people comment on it, I think, because it's such a unique style.

"Now, did we ever think we would end up with this home? No. We've kind of been all over the place in terms of styles—we’ve had a two-story Tudor and a ranch—but every step moved us towards this."

The McCormicks met at then-Kearney State College and lived in Kearney, Nebraska, almost all their married lives. He ran his business; she taught public school and later taught physical education at the college, along with running its intramural sports program.

After retiring they moved to Omaha to be close to their three adult sons and four granddaughters.

They've always done special things with their residences.

"We did kind of trick them out," Steve says. "But this is probably the craziest we've gone. I wanted to do the things that kind of went over the top, not to the point of being showy, but just neat features."

A playground feature is the attached, double-high garage. It is Steve's man cave, rec space, and trophy room. He's added hydraulic lifts to facilitate storing his collection of classic Ford vehicles. He's decorated the space with racing posters, motor oil signs, a vintage gas pump, a parking meter, and all things combustible engine-related.

Built-in bookcases stand ready to provide a cold winter-night’s quiet entertainment.

Just off the downstairs family room is a home movie theater that seats 10 in plush, fully reclinable chairs. A whimsical touch is a faux box office with a mannequin ticket-taker.

The family room includes a small bar backed by a distressed wall. Next to the bar is a tiny wine cellar fronted by an iron gate.

The McCormicks worked closely with subcontractors Dick Grace Construction, Timberlane Construction, and others to create certain touches.

Steve says visitors often "use the word ‘detail’ when they're at our house—and that's a compliment."

The home's two bedrooms are located on the lower level. The guest bedroom is outfitted with furniture and keepsakes the couple inherited from their respective families. > / H16 /

At Home The downstairs features a wine cellar, complete with casks and dungeon-esque decor.

< As large as the home appears on the outside, it's 2,200 square feet, just 400 feet less than today’s average size.

"I find it a very comforting home, a very warm home," Bari says.

A color scheme of earth and jewel tones offers subtle contrasts to the dark woodwork, pale plaster walls, and hickory floor.

Most of the interior wood is stained alder, including the kitchen cabinets and doors.

The kitchen, formal dining room, and living room walls are done in Venetian plaster. The kitchen island, countertops, and backsplashes feature granite.

The beams transecting the vaulted living room ceiling naturally split, lending them even more character.

"I like the fact that the beams come down and cozy it up," Bari says. "They are massive, but that's a lot of space so it needed some weight up there to kind of balance the room."

Like Cary Grant and Myrna Loy in the old movie Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, the couple spent more than they originally planned, but who can put a price on storybook and heart?

Steve says, "My attitude is why not enjoy it?"

Besides, Bari adds, "It's our last roundup."

WINNING AT WINE

A BASEMENT CELLAR FOR SERIOUS COLLECTORS

/ H20 /

OmahaHome â&#x20AC;˘ November/December 2015

I

N A SPACIOUS home in West Omaha live a pair of wine lovers.

“I open a bottle while I am cooking, and then my husband comes home and we have a glass with dinner,” says the lady of the house. “He will often have two glasses with dinner. I love to cook and pair wine with food.”

Along with a love of fermented grapes, the couple have a love of travel, and that wanderlust has led to the purchase of a lot of wine.

“We have a trip in November to Santa Monica,” the homeowner says. “We’re in Napa or somewhere that we can buy wine at least twice a year.”

They also belong to nine wine clubs, which ship the couple’s favorite drink a couple of times a year. Thus the bottles began to stack up. The homeowners bought a wine fridge, then graduated to a rack that held 400 cabernets, pinots, and Burgundies. They kept accumulating.

“Then we built this,” the homeowner says, spreading her hands in a shy “voila” gesture.

“This” refers to a basement cellar, a temperature-controlled private room with glass doors leading to a dizzying array of dark glass vessels stacked neatly on top of one another.

There are no whites inside…the grigios and chardonnays fill two wine fridges in the basement kitchen.

Cellars are becoming a popular home feature, according to Nancy Pesavento, ASID, of Interiors Joan and Associates. Pesavento says there were many factors to be decided in creating this space.

“When a client wants to do a wine cellar we need to understand the extent to which they want to go. Are they collectors, or do they just want an architectural feature in their home?

We need to know how it is going to be used.

We have seen extensive wine cellars like this that are temperature controlled, and we have seen built-in racks for displaying just a few bottles. Some people like cellars that you can entertain in.”

“Most lower levels are boxes,” says Pesavento.

“I think bringing in a soft element like the arch gives it an architectural element and breaks up the boxiness of it. She has a very traditional interior. By stoning those arches, it gave her the traditional elements she wanted.”

“We originally wanted it kind of dungeonylooking,” the homeowner says. “We wanted it to be dark and heavy, but then Kent and Nancy convinced us otherwise.”

The homeowner realized the usefulness of a basement kitchen last year after restoring her main floor cooking area.

“I actually designed a wine cellar to be in that corner where the bar is, and (the homeowners) say we’d like to have more of a cave feel, moving it away from the bar,” says Kent Therkelsen of KRT Construction. “In the end, it is maybe like more of what you see at a winery.”

The cavernous expanse became lighter by incorporating grey stone throughout—from the fireplace to the walls and all the way around the room. Wood enclaves broke up the wall to create a warmer feeling while highlighting a non-standard-sized shuffleboard table sitting between them.

“I was trying to highlight the stone, and when I had the original drawings it looked like it was too much, so I said ‘how about some display cabinets?’” Therkelsen says.

The wood isn’t exactly cherry…or oak…

“It was a custom stain that they created for us,” the homeowner says proudly. “I wanted a hint of red, but not too much. I wanted a hint of brown, but not too much.”

The actual wood is birch, stained reddish-brownish.

The hard edges of the rocks were broken up with geometry in the form of arches lit with a series of two-inch lights.

“I realized I don’t really need a stovetop, I just need an oven, a fridge, and a microwave,” the homeowner says. “And a dishwasher.”

This basement is designed for entertaining, with four high stools at the kitchen counter where people can converse while one creates culinary delights, and a comfortable seating area with a television for others.

The basement also features such furniture as a couch upholstered in a buff-shaded leather and throw pillows with eggplant-colored (some might say shiraz-hued) accents. An overstuffed chair and a half also features this purple-red tint.

“It’s my favorite color,” the homeowner says.

“I really wanted to incorporate it.”

Also bringing in a touch of claret “color” without being claret-colored is the table and stools created from wine barrel staves.

“The thing is that every wine cellar is different, I’ve never built two the same,” says Therkelsen. “They’re a one-of-a-kind thing that is really defined by size limitation, space limitation, the kind of wine people want to store. There’s a uniqueness to it.”

THE WOLF IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING TURNING TRADITION ON ITS HEAD IN COUNTRY CLUB

Brian, Jackson, and Andrea Kelly On Their Garage-top Deck Overlooking Metcalfe Park

T

HE F IR ST THING you notice

when entering the Metcalfe Parkarea home of Andrea and Brian Kelly is that which is missing.

The most common architectural element found in the brick, Tudor-inspired homes that dominate the neighborhood, one bisected by the snaky meanderings of Country Club Avenue, is an arch that separates the living and dining rooms.

It’s a bold stroke to swing a sledgehammer at such a signature detail, but taking down the arch was central to a vision of transforming this traditional home into a showpiece of contemporary design. > November/December 2015 • omahamagazine.com

/ H23 /

Spaces

“Our aim was to increase the spatial dimension of this place.”

-Brian Kelly

< Oh, and it probably didn’t hurt that the couple behind that vision are both architects known for innovative thinking in the spaces they create.

“It’s natural for people to get into a new home, look at it as a blank page, and think about what to add to it,” says Brian, a professor of architecture at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

“Our philosophy was just the opposite,” explains Andrea, formerly of Randy Brown Architects and now stay-at-home mom for the couple’s 6-year-old son, Jackson. “It started with what we knew we’d be subtracting from it.” / H24 /

OmahaHome • November/December 2015

Next to go was much of the ceiling in the living room, a decision that eliminated almost 100 square feet of second-floor living area in a home that holds barely 10 times that amount to begin with. For this couple, the word “area” is merely a formulaic measurement. Space, on the other hand, is a theoretical construct felt at a gut level.

“Our aim was to increase the spatial dimension of this place,” Brian says. “The overall effect is that the house feels bigger. And we gained tons of natural light down here that used to be wasted up there,” he says in pointing to an upstairs window that now illuminates much of the home’s first floor.

Splashes of color erupt in marigold, grey, and in artwork—much of it created by Brian, Andrea, and Jackson. The dining area features orange Eames chairs that gathered grease for four decades in the auto body shop of Andrea’s father.

Brian did most of the work himself.

“He’s more of a designer and I’m more of a planner,” Andrea says. “I’m into the technical aspects of construction and wanted to do a budget…detailed drawings…the works.”

A six-month study trip to Europe helped validate the couple’s notion of scale.

“People ‘live small’ in Europe,” Brian says.

“Our home is still very American,” Andrea adds, “and it’s downright grand in scope compared to how most people live in Europe. This is a lesson in efficiency, livability, and defining the balance between personal spaces and communal spaces. It really suits our family well.”

The home juxtaposes natural materials against those that are decidedly industrial and hard-edged.

Organic hues in untreated lumber and hardwood floors blend with perforated aluminum, plexiglass, and naked steel. Factory stamping marks on wood and wax pencil numbering on metal are left untouched in evoking a raw sensibility. The original fireplace survived, but the mantle above was replaced by a bent-steel picture rail. Alligator clips attached to wires suspended by magnets allow a funky, quickchange approach to displaying family photos.

The absence of window treatments? The desire for simplicity, openness, and clean lines, Andrea says, trumped worries about privacy.

Geography also lends a hand in eliminating sight lines for prying eyes. The home sits on a hill overlooking Metcalfe Park, and the back is shrouded by dense greenery.

“Wasn’t gonna happen,” Brian says with a chuckle. “I didn’t want to think too much about it when it came to process. For me it became an experiment, an in-the-moment experience.” When you set out to do the unexpected, the professor explains, stumbling onto a few surprises along the way can serve as a gateway to learning.

Save for the use of perforated aluminum cladding on an exterior handrail, neighborhood dog-walkers are afforded no hint as to what lies beneath when they pass the home that looks like so many others in the tree-lined neighborhood.

“And that’s the whole idea,” Andrea says.

“That’s why we call this place the wolf in sheep’s clothing.” OmahaHome

Janvrin noticed a need in Omaha for upscale children’s design, and, with her son as her inspiration, she launched Youthful Nest. The business caters to kids of all ages with a focus on expectant mothers. Janvrin believes the site allows other options for design-savvy clients.

“We are bridging the gap between a traditional interior design and DIY,” Janvrin says.

After buying a service online, clients are asked to create a styleboard through Pinterest or Houzz. They may add a gift registry or enter contests. Janvrin calls them for a 30-minute interview or meets them face to face. It is her job to interpret the client’s inspiration and transform it into one cohesive work. She hunts and finds products online.

“I love shopping with other people’s money,” Janvrin says.

Grownup touches allow Janvrin’s designs to grow with the child.

An initial consultation package costs clients $175. Wasserman wanted a positive and peaceful vibe for her daughter’s nursery, but couldn’t seem to narrow down the style.

“I was all over the place,” Wasserman explains.

Therefore, she decided to buy additional services which included a floor plan ($175), a color consult ($75), and a room guide ($100).

Janvrin sources practical and beautiful items for her clients. She created a boho-chic style board for Wasserman. The mix of vintage and contemporary will grow with the child.

Wasserman originally wanted walls painted a heavenly white. After Janvrin sent paint color schemes to Wasserman, the room design now includes one wall in a modern pink ombre.

“She really honed in on my vision and executed what I wanted,” Wasserman says.

Janvrin leans towards functionality, form, and longevity. She is a fan of selecting items which will grow with the child.

Wasserman is happy with the ultimate design.

She fell in love with her Stokke Home crib in a crisp white, which is interchangeable and can be customized for a growing child during the first five years. The overall effect of the nursery will be light, airy, and whimsical.

“I love to find ways to make kids happy…it keeps me young,” Janvrin adds. OmahaHome Visit youthfulnest.com to learn more.

DESIGN IMPACT AWARD WINNER BEST IN SHOW Brianne Wilhelm Allied Member ASID D3 Interiors Photography by Amoura Productions

The main open living space features a long wet bar, a dining/game table and a large media space, with an additional seating area at the base of the stairs for reading and/or conversation away from the TV. The wet bar was designed to house the appliances the family required, with floating shelves over the centrally positioned sink. Easy to clean, family-friendly materials were selected for the flooring; a plush carpet for the living space, and a medium grey, textured tile for the kitchen and bathroom.

Asid Awards GOLD Michele Hybner, Allied ASID and Shawn Falcone, Allied ASID Falcone Hybner Design, Inc. Photography by Amoura Productions

This custom home was built for an active family of five. Red and orange were identified as two favorite colors of this family, which was fitting as those are both active hues. The palette also includes neutrals to offer a visual break from the intense colors the family wanted to incorporate into their design.

GOLD Brianne Wilhelm Allied Member ASID D3 Interiors Photography by Amoura Productions

This condo is located in an historic Art Deco building downtown. Designer and client embarked on a journey to create a home that reflects the clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality and functions smoothly as she enjoys hosting friends, neighbors, and family.

GOLD Michele Hybner, Allied ASID and Shawn Falcone, Allied ASID Falcone Hybner Design, Inc. Photography by Amoura Productions

Vintage charm and a sunny color palette topped this homeowner's wish list for their open-concept kitchen, eating, and great room. The illuminated airy kitchen has bright white preimeter cabinets, granite countertops with veining similar to marble, and handmade gray glazed ceramic subway tile backsplash.

GOLD Michele Hybner, Allied ASID and Shawn Falcone, Allied ASID Falcone Hybner Design, Inc. Photography by Amoura Productions

With a neutral color palette, the use of texture played a key role in the design solution.

Throughout the design process, special attention was paid to the use and integration of unique finish selections, which offered visual interest.

GOLD Shawn Falcone, Allied ASID Falcone Hybner Design, Inc. Photography by Amoura Productions

Form and function must always be considered in design, especially for a busy couple with a growing family who also work from their home. Careful attention was paid to the integration of built-ins and storage, along with beautiful finishes, for a seamless work/life fit.

GOLD Julie Odermatt, ASID D3 Interiors Photography by Tom Kessler

The designer, builder, and homeowner carefully considered all aspects and details of the home to create a classic, contemporary design.

The client wanted the home to be timeless, not trendy, so the design elements could stay fresh and current for years to come. Specific finishes were selected to accommodate. >

Select materials and thoughtful space planning allows this family to enjoy an area that is sophisticated enough for entertaining, yet functional enough to withstand the wear and tear of everyday family life.

GOLD Nancy Pesavento, ASID Interiors Joan & Associates Photography by Tom Kessler

The design of this home evolved from the desire of the clients to downsize to a smaller, more contemporary home. All materials for the project were thoughtfully selected with easy maintenance in mind. The clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; intent is to age in this home, so elements such as an elevator and an open floor plan will stand the test of time.

< A hexagon pattern was applied to the entrance floor using white Calcutta marble and gray London marble.

A Moroccan-inspired light fixture was used in the center of the space as an unexpected element. The warm glow and soft lines from the five-light chandelier creates contrast from the geometric pattern in the foyer floor.

People passing through the foyer are visually drawn to the decorative glass sliding doors framing the dining room. A natural woven wallcovering was applied to the walls throughout the space, mixing shades of gray and metallics. The metallic background reflects light from the linear chandelier placed above the dining room table. The crystal creates a dramatic eye-catching effect in the space. A large white piece of art was placed above the buffet table to contrast the dark gray walls. >

< the ovens and microwaves. Industrial stainless steel appliance garages were added to hide the everyday cooking tools to help keep the space clean and clutter-free. The island is stained a dark espresso color that contrasts the white quartz countertops selected due to ease of maintenance and durability for a growing family. To soften the linear lines in the kitchen area, drum shades were used over the island and dinette table to create balance and harmony.

A custom dinette table was designed to be nearly indestructible from the wear and tear of three growing children. The tabletop is made of concrete material with a baked-on finish that will prevent stains or marks from everyday use.

Just off the kitchen is a hearth room that is used as the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main gathering area.

The room needed to have comfortable, yetdurable, furnishings. The space introduces a playful mix of teal and citron colors with the use of artworks, pillows, and accessories.

The main furniture pieces in the space stay neutral so the colors can be easily changed as the family grows and tastes differ. The back wall of the hearth room and kitchen is lined with windows that showcase stunning natural views. Custom window treatments were applied to the windows so views would not be obstructed when the shades were up but could provide privacy for the family when needed.
