An example of a successful use of color is seen on this dining room wall.

Colors were pulled from a piece of fabric the client fell in love with and it was implemented in the wall treatment. This draws the eye around the room and creates a harmonious blend of color and balance in the space.

 

Faux finishes are a beautiful and classic way to dress your walls.Faux finishes require time and expertise, but the finished result can be stunning. I work with very skilled and experienced faux artists,and as you can see, the time and effort is worth it when you have a gorgeous finish as seen in this bedroom.

Specialty paint jobs don’t end with faux finishes. Murals, also known as Trompe l’oeil, which is French for ‘fool the eye,’ is a great way to make a
space feel like it continues on.

This mural of a
garden retreat was applied to a living room wall where the interior space met with the outdoor garden space. The mural draws your eye into the faux garden and creates the feeling of a space that extends beyond the walls of the room.

Tile and stone are no stranger to wall treatments. How
it is applied can make a significant impact though.
The tile used in this powder room is exquisite on it’s own, but applied in a conventional manner could easily get lost amongst the other elements. By applying the tile in a diagonal fashion, it now commands the space. The powder room is now a compelling piece of art that draws attention

Specialty treatments such as slabs of mother of pearl or petrified wood are rare and beautiful ways to give a space striking appeal. These specialty treatments require specialty designing in order to give them
the attention they deserve. As Ludwig Meis van der Rohe said, “God is in the details.” Don’t let the space overwhelm the remarkable details that are inside.
