TOTAL LOOK

THE SAGE COLOR HAS BEEN MY PARTICULAR LOVE LATELY, APPEARING IN MANY OF OUR RECENT PROJECTS. I LOVE ALL OF ITS SHADES THAT WE'VE TRIED TO BLEND. OPENNESS TO EYE-CATCHING SOLUTIONS AND A GENUINE INVOLVEMENT OF THE HOMEOWNERS MADE THE INTERIOR ASTONISH THE VIEWER WITH INSPIRING ACCENTS. THE HOUSE HAS UNDERGONE A THOROUGH METAMORPHOSIS, STARTING WITH THE STAIRCASE, WIDENING AND PAINTING THE WALNUT WINDOWS WITH BLACK, AND ENDING WITH FUNCTIONAL CHANGES IN KITCHENS AND BATHROOMS. THE WALLS ARE ACCENTED WITH MOLDINGS OF DIVERSE COMPOSITIONS AND COLORS, CREATING A CHARMING BACKGROUND FOR FURNITURE AND ACCESSORIES. BRASS APPEARS IN MANY FINISHING ELEMENTS, COMPRISING DOOR HANDLES, LAMPS, HANDLES, BATHROOM FAUCETS - IT IS A KIND OF DELICATE ORNAMENTS THAT COMPLEMENTS THE ENTIRE INTERIOR. THERE ARE MANY DARING WALLPAPERS IN THE PROJECT, WHICH I ADMIT I WOULD HAVE TROUBLE PICKING MYSELF SINCE I DO NOT INCLUDE WALLPAPERS IN PROJECTS OFTEN. THE HOMEOWNERS WHO RUN AN INTERIOR DESIGN STORE (INCLUDING WALLPAPERS) WERE READY FOR THE TOTAL MADNESS I ATTEMPTED TO COMBINE INTO A MEANINGFUL WHOLE.

INVESTOR'S ​INFO:

Sq. Ft.: 2000
Number of floors: 2
Inhabitants: 4
Motive: Brownstone

released: January 2023

A LOT OF FANCY COLORS, PATTERNS, AND TEXTURES ARE TO BE FOUND IN THE INTERIOR, THE MATCHING OF WHICH WAS A CHALLENGE. FOR KAROLINA (THE LADY OF THE HOUSE), HER KITCHEN IS A PLACE WHERE SHE CAN EXPLORE AND DEVELOP HER PASSIONS. SHE HAS EMPHASIZED A LOT THAT IT MUST BE PRACTICAL IN THE FIRST PLACE. BECAUSE OF THEIR TWO KIDS AND FREQUENT COOKING, SHE DOES NOT WANT TO FEEL LIKE IN A MUSEUM WHERE EVERYTHING IS SUPPOSED TO LOOK RIGOROUSLY PERFECT, SO IT IS BETTER NOT TO MOVE OR TOUCH ANYTHING. THE STAIRS, WHICH ARE THE FIRST ELEMENT THAT CATCHES THE EYE RIGHT AFTER ENTERING THE HOUSE, NOT ONLY FULFILL THEIR TRADITIONAL FUNCTION BUT ALSO HOLD BUILT-IN DEEP AND SPACIOUS DRAWERS FOR STORING KIDS' TOYS AND OTHER HANDY ITEMS.
