Modern Condo
Our clients wanted to completely remodel and refresh their three-story condo following principles of Feng Sui. There were curves in the ceiling of the great room that were existing. We kept it because the clients liked the asymmetry of it. Keeping it also kept to amount of change to a minimum. So we worked with it!
We completely ripped out the stair and redid the whole staircase with an open tread system so that when you walk into the home, you have this sense of being brought all the way in and not being stopped at the stairs.
Our clients wanted dramatic lighting throughout, so we have a lot of lights that beam down, making it feel a little more dramatic throughout the space.
We did the tile floors like a concrete tile that was really cool, and that upside down U shape that’s also tile was done by Lewis that was done to match the tile on the floor.
We directed things out to the views of the lake, everything’s very linear towards the view out to the lake. Our clients didn’t want a TV above the fireplace, so we designed a linear fireplace. When they aren’t using the TV, it blends in with the metal for a simple, clean look.
