ALBANS

MODERN

This home underwent a complete transformation from a classic, old-world French aesthetic to a more modern, refreshed look. While the homeowner, a devoted Francophile, wanted to maintain French influences, the goal was to infuse the space with a brighter, sleeker feel.

We incorporated a blend of antiques, including pieces the homeowner cherished, and juxtaposed them with contemporary upholstery and bolder, modern colors. This contrast brought a fresh vibrancy to the home while the antiques grounded the design, preventing it from feeling too stark.

To elevate the overall aesthetic, we introduced striking, statement art pieces that added sophistication while complementing the antique furnishings. The interplay between the old and new – the yin and yang of the design – became the defining feature of this project.

Hailing from Mississippi, the family had a deep connection to their traditional southern roots, but they were eager to modernize the space. Rich brown woods, dark floors, and crisp white walls served as the perfect backdrop for the contemporary art, creating a stunning visual contrast.

 

This project was both challenging and immensely rewarding – a transformation I still love to revisit.
