The idea
Dark stone against a wall of glass.
This private residence is planned as a long, open living floor beside full-height windows that look out over trees and the city. One wall is clad in dark veined stone, cut by a fine brass line and set above a low fluted console, and it anchors the main living room. Pale marble runs underfoot, and the ceiling is kept plain, with a cove of light around its edge and black track lights over the sculpture shelf.
Furniture is grouped into a sequence of sitting areas: grey linen sofas on brown leather bases, a pair of lounge chairs with olive cushions by a linear fire at the window, and a round speckled rug under nesting tables. Lit oak shelving lines the far end. In the upper family room, a relief-patterned wall frames the television beside a glass balustrade.

About the project
Stone, linen and leather by the window
The residence unfolds along its windows. The first space is the main living room, held by the stone wall on one side and the glass on the other. From there the floor continues through a series of sitting areas: a pair of chairs near the fire, a low setting around a rug, and shelving lit at the far end. On the upper level, the family room sits behind a glass edge, with the television set into a patterned wall.
Dark veined stone gives the living room its weight, and the fine brass inlay draws a thin line of light across it. Grey linen sofas sit on bases of brown leather, combining a soft woven cloth with a firmer, warmer surface. By the window, the lounge chairs carry olive cushions over leather, a muted green. Pale marble underfoot balances the darker materials, and lit oak shelving brings timber into the far end of the room.
