This project is the result of research and work lasting several months. This magnificent Haussmannian apartment will inspire you if you are looking for refined and original inspiration. Here the lights are decorative objects in their own right. Sometimes they take the form of a cloud in the children's room, delicate bubbles in the parents' or floating halos in the living rooms. The majestic kitchen completely hugs the long wall. It is a unique creation by eggersmann by Paul & Benjamin. A very important piece for the family, it has been designed both to allow them to meet and to welcome official invitations. The master bathroom is a work of art. There is a minimalist Italian stone shower. Wood gives the room a chic side without being too conspicuous. It is the same wood used for the construction of boats: solid, noble and above all waterproof.

This home exemplifies the meaning of contemporary design. Our clients wanted something that would stand out in a community of new homes in the prestigious 1801 Foxhall development in Northwest DC. The stones for the exterior were individually cut and laid so that they provided a more modern feel. The narrow windows with stone headers and ledges add to that feeling, along with the flat wood-paneled garage door. The wood trim details throughout the home and the exquisite custom Italian tiles were all completely custom designed, along with the sleek kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities. The feeling of contemporary, clean lines are carried out everywhere in the home. And the most prominent feature for that is the wood and steel linear “zig-zag” staircase which is a centerpiece of the home. The sauna has a luxurious Scandinavian feel that works well in the home. One of the most interesting features of this home are the views from different rooms, looking towards other parts of the home. You are able to see new and interesting design features from a variety of angles, each one creating its own contemporary look.

Photo Credit: Richard Gadsby Designer: Thomson Carpenter Featured in the April 2016 issue of Kitchens, Bedrooms & Bathrooms, this chic two-bedroom pied-à-terre in the heart of London took a full year to complete, but the final result was well worth the wait! "The aim was to create a feeling of comfort and to have a boutique hotel-like finish, and both bedrooms have access to their own shower room" When this townhouse was bought by Roy & Florence Barker, it took a team of specialist builders almost a year to turn it into the property of their dreams. Designer Thomson Carpenter was enlisted to tranform the property into the ultimate London bolthole. The owners vision was to create a chic Parisian-style pied-à-terre but they were also happy to incorporate some contemporary elements. The property features lots of antiques as well as contemporary and custom made products such as reclaimed French marble from Bourgogne Stone and cabinetry by Plain English. Drummonds Double Crake Vanity Basin with Arabescato marble and Carron Shower sit perfectly with the marble walls and floors of the master en suite. Thomson chose to use marble for the wall coverings and floor in order to create an opulent finish in the ensuite shower room. Detailed panelling can be found throughout the property which was inspired by the owners favourite hotel Le Bristol in Paris. The custom made Single Calder with Black Marquina oozes a character and Parisian appeal in the ensuite shower room.
