Sylvan Heights Custom

To a full-service designer, being asked to partner with a homeowner to design their dream home from construction through furnishings is the ultimate honor. Our relationship with this client began several years prior when we were brought in to assist with their vacation home. So when it came to this new build project, all parties began with a wonderful understanding of each other.

This home is filled with unique details. When it came to designing the entry, we wanted to provide a bold first impression. After some collaboration with the clients, we decided that a custom mural installed on a long entry wall was just the ticket. Rendered and printed by MDC, the imagery within the mural is not only visually impactful but it’s also significant in its relationship to our client’s last name. Because of that the entry feels incredibly personal and we love how it invites conversation between the homeowners and their guests.

The office was another room where we really got to exercise some creativity. Partnering with Cutting Edge Custom Cabinetry, we designed a wall-to-wall (nearly floor-to-ceiling) walnut built-in that included an art niche and hidden bar. The built-in not only provided the client with the tons of practical storage that he had requested, but it also transformed this run-of-the-mill office into a memorable showstopper.

While partnering with builders, it’s our job to keep the client’s best interest at heart and ensure successful forward progression each step of the way. From sensible edits to the floor plan to stylish finishes and thoughtful furnishings, we addressed each space with an understanding of how the clients would live, work and play! The end result is a modern, comfortable retreat full of the homeowner’s personality.
