Contemporary Beverly Hills Home





















Entryway - Custom designed and colored silk and wool rug from Nepal; beautiful console table with a floating glass top, by Century Furniture, and embellished with beautiful bronze candlesticks by Sculptor Tom Corbin, and original glass centerpiece by Salvatore Pollizzi.













Dining Room Window - Custom built cherry wood console table with extra shelf, which is the same width as the window (86”). The cherry wood finish matched the dining room set in the room. Notice how the outside landscaping feels as though the hillside is in the house. Beautiful accessories accentuate the table with objects from Michael Aram, Kosta Boda, and independent artists. The window was topped with a pale green cornice box to add more illusion of the outside coming in.















Corner of the Living Room – Cozy corner of the living room, accentuating the custom built coffee table by Century Furniture. Accessories include Kosta Boda vases; a coffee table book of Tom Corbin’s works and signature pieces by Jonathan Adler. The colors in the accent pillow complement the design of the area rug and the artwork.  

















Kitchen - The kitchen was a delightful job for designers. The pattern of the  3-colored horizontal tile was designed by AFID, using Ann Sachs tile. Imagine a picture window over the kitchen sink overlooking the landscaped hillside, giving one the illusion again, of being able to touch the flowers.

French Kitchen









This kitchen was designed with the South of France in mind.  Bright white cabinets and tile,  with mustard colored walls and Roman shades, and raspberry colored island. Note the limestone floors and Italian chandelier. The custom-built wrought iron cafe table, is located at the bay windows, in the addition to the original kitchen. Authentic Pierre Deux fabrics from France were used on the bar stools to give the kitchen some French flair.

The banquette was designed to accommodate 8 people at the table, and was built for storage beneath the seats. Again, the same Pierre Deux fabrics appear on the banquette to match the bar stools, and the wrought iron on the base of the custom-shaped dinner table is the same as on the cafe table. Pierre Deux chairs add the finishing touch to this ensemble.  

Formal Living Room














This formal living room was designed to accommodate a large seating group in a comfortable setting. It features antique furniture, a Baker coffee table, Chinoisserie accessories and lamp as well as many of the family's cherished collectibles and framed family photographs. The back of the room is designed with floor to ceiling mirrors and two Bombe chests flanking both sides of the fireplace. The draperies were created with swags covering a self fabric rod.
