En Masse Architecture and Design
In a new stage of life as empty nesters, the couple decided to incorporate vibrant colors, luxe fabrics, and charming decor elements to create a home that is now optimized for dressing up, hosting, and enjoying life- without worries about spills or rough play.
The renovation included creating a dream walk-in closet, a cozy dining nook, and a lavish dressing room that celebrated the wife's impeccable style.
The clients were inspired by the richness of the initial spaces and eagerly embraced the idea of extending that aesthetic throughout their home. Transforming a study area into a high-design breakfast nook and infusing the formal entertaining room with energy through bold colors and patterns set the tone for the entire apartment.
“Design helped the home reflect the personalities of its liberated owners.”
— Lucas Goldbach
The wife's dream closet, a vibrant and confident space, became a focal point of the project. Drawing inspiration from bold and colorful elements like the Botanical Paradise Rug and the peachy-pink walls, the closet exudes a sense of luxury and personality. The husband also benefited from the redesign, gaining more wardrobe storage and experiencing an enveloping color palette in the bedroom suite.
Incorporating elements that resonate with the clients' travel experiences and personal preferences, each space in the home was carefully curated to provide comfort and sophistication, and reflect the personality of the homeowners.
