DESIGN
Your home should be an escape hatch from the world’s frenetic fray. You deserve a calming space to dial down and get away. The goal is to create an environment where function and aesthetics meet — a space that enriches your daily life, expresses who you are, and shares the many unique chapters of your story.
Elemental home design is my motif of choice. Elemental means natural. It involves designing with wood, stone and other materials found in nature. These natural details create a sense of calm and tranquility within your home.
Color is a key element in elemental home design. Color impacts the tone and atmosphere of any space. Choosing calming and soothing colors creates a more relaxing environment.
Another important aspect of elemental home design is the use of natural light. Proper lighting enhances the feel of a space and helps create a sense of balance.
Natural textures add warmth and depth to a space. Using a thoughtful blend of textures, from smooth and polished to rough and natural, adds dimension and visual interest.
Elemental home design is about creating a space that’s reflective of nature. By considering the elements of natural colors, woven textures and innate lighting, you can create a beautiful and inviting home — au naturel.
“Design is coming to grips with one’s real lifestyle, one’s real place in the world. Rooms should not be put together for show, but to nourish one’s well-being.”
—Albert Hadley
