Quintessential Exotic Marbles… in Modern Spaces.

Quintessential Exotic Marbles… in Modern Spaces.

Quintessential Exotic Marbles… in Modern Spaces. Last year I was obsessed with onyx..now being surrounded by tasteful white Carrara marble.. exotic materials for modern bathrooms and kitchen design. So many variations and colors, size and scale play a very important role into every project.

But recently I’ve been really into Statuary, and especially exotic marbles that are: green, maroon, and even pink. I like it all mixed together and lately I’m noticing, well, I’m not the only one!

Like any mathematical problem, design is a solution to adding up the sum of all its parts..Color, Materials, Space Plan, Finishes and Furniture..
As a designer I always find the best design solution possible with all of its parts!!

Good Design has the power to predict the future while reflecting the lifestyle of the present!

COLOUR TherapyDESIGN THERAPY- Pieced together…work all the angles of a room. With the geometric rigor a modernist painting, as an Interior designer, I assemble collages of texture, prints, and color before planning out the space. The key to a successful floor plan “work all the angles of the room”. Blocks of color make powerful statements, and I am very inspired by the rich –hued colors that Sonia Delaunay and Mark Rothko use with their use of color blocks. Colors can create graphic artistry in the way they are arranged. I usually work with a trio of colors, and add one unexpected complimentary tone to create an unusual color scheme. My goal as a the designer is to have the person experience the mood intended by the design. Hint, sometimes if you test a wall color paint a patch of color 3’x6’ as a test prior to making the final selections.

Stacy Miles –Designer

Six steps to designing for my client….

1. Listen before you leap. I start by talking to my clients to get a better feel for their aesthetic and how they envision using the space. Knowing if they plan to entertain, need child-friendly fabrics, or have pieces that can be moved from another room or taken out of storage is key. It’s also crucial to figure out the budget so that I can make the right choices and get the most for a client’s money. Paint and Tiles can make a huge impact, so I try to pinpoint what’s happening on the walls , floors early on in the process.
2. Think practically. Designers have to avoid forcing their will on clients or choosing the most expensive options instead of thinking about how a room will actually be used . I always try to think of all possible problems that might occur before the design is executed.
3. Have a seat. When I’m selecting a sofa, comfort comes first. If I have a client who is 6’5″ ,though I made suggestions, he really needed to go to showrooms and try out different styles to sort out what felt best for someone of his height. Another important thing to do when picking a sofa for a New York City apartment is to make sure it will fit in the freight elevator and through the doorway!
4. Be consistent. It’s easiest to stick with neutrals for larger upholstered pieces, and work in brighter colors with throw pillows, which are less of a hassle and cheaper to swap out if you get sick of them. Make sure that the palette of each room works within the context of the entire house. This is especially important in smaller city apartments where one room tends to bleed into another.
5. Pay attention to detail. Without accessories, a room reminds me of a woman who got dressed and forgot to put on jewelry. Small accents create another layer and keep a space from looking cold or boring. I avoid buying everything from the same store or period. The most interesting spaces offer a mix of modern and antique from a bunch of different sources. Flowers or potted plants help create a warm and inviting environment. Placing favorite books on a table and a cashmere throw blanket on the arm of a chair also sets a nice mood.
6. Make it your own. A house should feel personal to a client. I love incorporating family heirlooms or anything that has a lot of sentimental value. If we’re starting totally from scratch, I try to choose pieces like old art books that look like the client could have picked them up along their travels or inherited them. I don’t want anything to look too done—a space should never look like a designer came in and did it all.
