Crazy for Contemporary.....

Love it! Lucky for me, I had the opportunity to create a contemporary living and breakfast area in a great home not to far from mine! It has been very exciting to push the limits with color and style in this open space plan.....which really lent itself to the contemporary style of the owner (I guess that is why they loved the house so much). I love it too! What a great space to entertain in! One of my favorite features is the gallery we created that wrapped around one half of the room in a lime green..... We balanced it with simple but impressive geen draperies on the opposite side of the room. The art is so awesome and adds a lot of impact over the mantle splashing the ink blue we used in the kitchen into the living room. The furniture is versatile, as the pieces can be moved and some adjusted into different types of seating. It is unique space! Enjoy the pictures of the progress. I'll add the final pictures in a few weeks when we hang the draperies in the breakfast room....

A New Look Unveiled at the Blue Monkey Bar and Grille, Naples, Florida






I had the pleasure of giving a "face lift" to the interior of a new bar and grille in Naples, FL called the Blue Monkey. By "face lift" I mean changing all the surface materials, lighting, art, millwork, flooring, etc. It is now a great new trendy spot to eat, listen to music, bring your family and just enjoy the atmosphere. It was exciting to be a part of the renovation and even more exciting to experience the Grand Opening and watch people enjoy the new space. If you live in Naples or plan to visit be sure to check out this place....not only am I partial to the decor....but the food and drinks are amazing too.
