We don’t seem to feature many Belgian interiors on the blog (for no other reason than it seems to come up rarely during searches for blog material) and this home isn’t in Belgium but located on Lake Minnetonka in Minnesota. Designer Alecia Stevens and the homeowers were inspired by Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen. She went with clean and contemporary, and not very feminine, with neutral colours and shades of grey and blue-green velvet, black linen, brown mohair and other deep moody colours for drama. The end result is classic but really cool. Architect: Rehkamp Larson Architects; Photos: Scott Amundson.

Lauren Nelson Design was hired to work in close coordination with the architect on finishes and furnishings for this gut renovation of a home in Tiburon that has been passed down among several generations.  The home was taken down to the studs and reimagined by opening up the kitchen and living spaces to allow for better flow, and by adding more rooms to accommodate the needs of this young family. The design aesthetic was driven by a love for rich colors, warm wood tones, soft textures, and a modern casual sensibility for this young family.
The earthy colours and wood in this home exudes such warmth and serenity. Also loooooove that creams rather than whites were used for walls and ceilings which speaks to me on so many levels since white is really not my thing and way too cold for my taste.

“This property is situated on the canals of Marina Del Rey and features ocean views on the top floor. The ambience is unique, and the home feels just like an Italian palazzo in the heart of Los Angeles. The home boasts 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, an elevator, sauna, and various living spaces and verandas. Playful, strong marbles were used throughout, alongside Italian-sourced lighting and special items found internationally and at local flea markets.”

A contemporary oasis in a historic townhouse. Think modern and minimalist but with luxury finishes and a soft monochrome palette. Refined, curated and a sanctuary from the outside bustle. A home that welcomes you home with its simplicity. Townhouse H by Hoboken, New Jersey based Corvino Design.
