Organic Oasis
This home embraces texture, natural elements and dramatic contrasts. The design takes full advantage of its soaring ceilings and open spaces, with a statement-making 15-foot live tree as a central feature. Plaster finishes on the fireplace and hood vent, woven pendants in the dining area and a sleek black tile bar create layers of depth and character.
To balance the openness of the main living area, the office and primary suite introduce a moody contrast. The office features a hidden closet within the trim detailing, while the bedroom boasts a bold feature wall that captivates upon entry.
Challenges in tile placement, particularly in the primary bath and bar, required creative problem-solving. A reimagined checkerboard tile layout and a carefully adjusted bar design ensure a seamless look without exceeding budget. The result is a thoughtfully curated home that feels both refined and effortless.
