Part arts and crafts, part neoclassic--it's more interesting when you combine design styles. Rich caramels, ambers and cream are the colors that tie it all together in this warm, inviting den. Photo by David Duncan Livingston.
Entryways are made to make a statement. Paint a bold color to make the home instantly inviting. Design Tip: A torchier floor lamp can add a soft, romantic glow to an entryway.
The combination of neutral colors and green accents with the wood acts as an extension of the exterior view. Backlit panels are inset the chiseled tile fireplace surround to flank the TV and provide a warm glow. Photography by Scott Mayoral
This family room was designed to provide a playful, yet elegant space for an active family. A pair of enameled hand-carved Peruvian armoires flanks a simple stone fireplace mantel and complements the brown tones found in the animal print on the upholstered ottoman and ebony stain of the three tier side tables. A tufted sofa was upholstered in linen damask and accentuated by raised velvet pillows with a playful fuchsia trim that matches the flocked silk custom draperies tied on hand-forged iron medallions. Enameled beamed ceilings, green grasscloth wall covering, faux crocodile upholstered side chairs, button-tufted ottomans and palm artwork complete this dynamic space.
The room is anchored by custom media cabinetry and complimented by subtle up-lighting on the wood ceiling. A leather sofa is combined with swivel chairs to give the room flexibility. Photography by Scott Mayoral
A metallic dusty amethyst wall covering with fuchsia flocking inspired the design of this unique gentleman's room on a Southern estate. The trim, ceiling and custom bar cabinetry were painted in a charcoal gray to make the room enveloping the guests. A black crystal chandelier, zebra upholstered arm chairs, sumptuous taffeta draperies with black bullion fringe and lacquered side tables complete this incredible room for this cigar aficionado.
A custom Venetian plaster domed ceiling and travertine pillars create a unique lounge area in a grand room of a Houston estate. A layered mirrored niche and opalescent striped wall covering reflect the lighting created by the crystal chandelier over four modern damask lounge chairs, a button-tufted ottoman and an authentic zebra rug.
A special resting place was created in a second floor hallway that leads to an outdoor balcony overlooking this Houston estate. Oversized chairs, a wood pedestal center table, brass side tables and abstract artwork are complimented by the antique wool area rug and custom draperies in a fuchsia pink Ikat print hung on a hand forged iron rod.
Ziccardi Designs was commissioned from the initial planning stages through construction to provide total turnkey interior design services for their exclusive Newport Beach estate. Monochromatic, luxurious silks highlight this family room, providing a subdued, elegant background to highlight the hand carved fireplace.
A calming color palette and modern furniture provide a welcome retreat for this San Francisco bachelorette.
