Inspired Design:Color and Curves

Color and Curves has a very sculptural appearance. It could almost be considered a work of art.

Across the bright, open main floor, the entertaining areas connect seamlessly, never interrupting the impressive panorama visible from every window. Everything has been tailored with ease, intimacy, and comfort in mind.

To soften the modern rectilinearity of the exterior architecture, embellishment of the inside with sumptuous curves, inspired partly by the living and dining area’s distinctive C-shaped structural columns. Emphasize them with a large, rounded cornice that runs along the top of the windows and walls. Take the took that sensuously sculptural line and threaded it throughout the house via rounded doorways and cabinets, elliptical light fixtures, and curvy, organically shaped sofas, lounge chairs, and table.

It is a challenge to strike the right balance between architectural form, color, and pattern, but the desired effect is always surprise and a feeling of comfort.
