A contemporary design with a touch of rustic charm! We wanted our client to have a timeless yet current interior to go with their beautiful high desert property.

Our clients have a wonderful collection of art and artifacts - contemporary southwest art, arrowheads, pottery, baskets, African art, etc. Combining their artwork with rich woods, tailored furnishings, modern finishes, and organic accents we were able to design a comfortable and luxurious home - perfect for entertaining large groups and family events.

Natural wooden ceiling panels were installed throughout the main floor, this worked as a stunning contrast to the more modern and contemporary pieces and prevented the wooden accents from looking too traditional. Custom woodwork was implemented throughout all of the casegoods and cabinetry, giving the home a personalized touch with quality that will last a lifetime.

To balance out and lighten up the wooden features, we incorporated natural stone accents, white marble countertops, light upholstered furnishings, and ensured that plenty of natural light was present.
