Foran Interior DesignBased on extensive interviews with our clients, our challenges were to create an environment that was an artistic mix of traditional and clean lines. They wanted it
dramatic and sophisticated. They also wanted each piece to be special and unique, as well as artsy. Because our clients were young and have an active son, they wanted their home to be comfortable and practical, as well as beautiful. The clients wanted a sophisticated and up-to-date look. They loved brown, turquoise and orange. The other challenge we faced, was to give each room its own identity while maintaining a consistent flow throughout the home. Each space shared a similar color palette and uniqueness, while the furnishings, draperies, and accessories provided individuality to each room.
We incorporated comfortable and stylish furniture with artistic accents in pillows, throws, artwork and accessories. Each piece was selected to not only be unique, but to create a beautiful and sophisticated environment. We hunted the markets for all the perfect accessories and artwork that are the jewelry in this artistic living area.
Some of the selections included clean moldings, walnut floors and a backsplash with mosaic glass tile. In the living room we went with a cleaner look, but used some traditional accents such as the embroidered casement fabric and the paisley fabric on the chair and pillows. A traditional bow front chest with a crackled turquoise lacquer was used in the foyer.

A custom steel frame is used to float the entire vanity and cabinetry off the rear wall, leaving a gap to reinforce the curved wall cascading behind the vanity. [photo by : emoMedia]
Sarah Barnard Design LLCThe half bath is a dreamy retreat, with Navy Blue Onyx floors and vanity, illuminated by a cloud of tulips. A Murano glass sink in creams and grays, reminiscent of a seashell’s interior, adds a sense of ceremony to hand washing. A small bundle of dogwood with blooms reflective of the lighting overhead sits by the sink, in a coppery glass vessel. The overhead lights were made with an eco resin, with petals hand splayed to mimic the natural variations found in blooming flowers. A small trinket dish designed by Michael Aram features a butterfly handle made from the shape of ginkgo leaves. Pattern tiles made in part with recycled materials line the walls, creating a field of flowers. The textural tiling adds interest, while the white color leaves a simple backdrop for the bathroom's decorative elements. A contemporary toilet with copper flush, selected for its minimal water waste. The floor was laid with minimal cuts in the navy blue onyx for a near-seamless pattern. The same onyx carries onto the vanity, casings, and baseboards.
