THE "MADISON MODERN HOME"

THE ROCKVIEW HOUSE

We brought in a Nesso for Artemide-style bright orange mushroom lamp to tie into the kitchen's awesome pendant lights

Black Eames style molded plastic chairs stand up on wire legs, providing uninterrupted views of the polished concrete floors

The "Dropp" bowl adds kinetic energy to the dining table.

A modern gray sofa anchors the living room. We brought in a fiddle leaf fig tree, a cowhide rug and a cool coffee table with an organic shape. Kilim and linen pillows add warm color.

We had fun styling the upper shelves in the kitchen, simply adding modern pottery, cookbooks and baskets.

The architect-owner had built two long banks of bookshelves in the skylight-lit hallway. We used considerable restraint in styling them for maximum impact.

A tribal pattern rug is draped over an upholstered headboard for a custom look. Bright yellow and white serve as freshening elements.

A peek into the master bedroom reveals a reclaimed wood bed and low nightstands.

African statues mingle amongst books and baskets.

An Eames House Bird appears to have found his rightful place on these modern bookshelves.

ECHO PARK SMALL-LOT MODEL UNIT

WESTWOOD OFFICE

Our client gave us a specific design directive: Make his office feel like Palm Springs. That of-the-moment Jonathan Adler style that mixes bold, colorful elements with masculine hits of metallic for an environment that’s anything but workaday. This office had to be taken seriously — along with its inhabitant. But serious doesn’t necessarily preclude fun. Or a magenta door, for that matter. In this redesign, we completely reworked every surface of this small space to envelop it in warmth, unique personality and vibrancy. It now speaks to its owner’s sophisticated and eclectic tastes, while accommodating his comfort, both during long work days and those late-night-deadline hours.

HOLLYWOOD LOFT

LOS FELIZ ARCHITECTURAL

When the call came to stage a sleek modern space practically in our own backyard — Los Feliz — we jumped. Seeing the home for the first time, our minds raced to all the possibilities of staging it with iconic modern pieces to complement its museum-white walls and angled rooms. Not a square box-shaped room in the place!

Enter our new favorite (super secret local) source for iconic chairs, tables and accent pieces. We styled the living room simply with a clean-lined sofa, thick shag rug, lily-pad style cocktail table and some iconic chairs: Eames molded plywood reproduction and a pair of Bertoia wire chairs (repros, too!). Hits of orange add a top note.

WINDSOR HILLS HOME

We completely re-imagined two rooms for a Windsor Hills, CA, client who loves Mid Century modern style. She had acquired some nice pieces already, but just didn’t know quite how to pull the entire look together. She also wanted a way to display some of her prized African artifacts.

Enter Madison Modern Home, and a brand new living room and dining room began to take shape, complete with a rustic stacked stone fireplace and reclaimed wood mantel to replace the outdated brick and mirror. We sourced bright yellow modern chairs, a cobalt blue rug, kilim and richly textured pillows, Moroccan patterned curtains and new lighting. In the dining room, it was a complete overhaul — featuring a sleek dining table and chairs, original art and an eye-catching three-light pendant.

WEST LA KITCHEN

We designed this fun and modern space for our client to cook, relax and entertain in. Mid-century style triangle tile and a reclaimed Stikwood wall juxtapose eachother for a cozy yet sleek result.

ECHO PARK HOME

We love zebra and cowhide rugs! They ground a space with an organic shape and never fail to add drama.

HISTORIC FILIPINOTOWN STYLING

Historic Filipinotown is a neighborhood on the cusp of a major hipster overhaul. Just north of Echo Park, “Hi-Fi” is an obvious progression on the path of LA flippage. We had the joy of outfitting this supercute corner-lot home with a minimalist 70s vibe.
