The Work

The Phoenix home.

Five rooms, mid-build. Nothing here is finished, and nothing is pretending to be. What is settled is named. What is still being decided is shown as a choice, not hidden until it resolves.

The Entry

“You walk in and something shifts. Before you have seen the rest of the house, you already know it has a point of view.”

Still being decided

Which drapery

One decision still open.

Patterned linen

Taupe · tobacco · charcoal block print

Tobacco velvet

Solid · deep · heavier drape

Mirror, credenza and paint are settled. Drapery is the one piece still being decided.

Where it actually stands

The mirror and credenza came first because they set the scale of everything else. Drapery is the one open decision worth showing. Everything else still missing is named here rather than smoothed over.

The Living Room

“Sculptural by day. Cinematic by night. The velvet was the first decision and everything else answered to it.”

Still being decided

Which mirror

One decision still open.

Convex

Smoked, dark, quiet reflection

Chrome

Brighter, sculptural, more insistent

The sectional set the direction and everything answered to it. What is left is installation, and two pieces still being sourced.

Where it actually stands

The panels are sitting in the house waiting to go up. The cabinets are still being built. The room reads close to finished in a rendering and is not finished in fact. That gap is the honest state of it.

The Dining Room

“The kind of room where dinner stretches into the night without anyone noticing.”

Still being decided

Mural, or built-ins

One decision still open.

Painted mural

Landscape across all four walls

Built-in seating

Window bench, shelving, darker envelope

Table, chairs, sideboard, curtains and pendant are all sourced. The walls are the open question.

Where it actually stands

Almost everything in this room is settled. The mural has been found but not bought, because that decision waits on whether the built-ins happen. The built-ins change the room enough that buying the mural first would be backwards.

The Powder Room

“Small, dark, and completely sure of itself. A room this size can afford to be dramatic.”

Still being decided

Centred, or off to one side

One decision still open.

Centred

Symmetrical, formal, calm

Asymmetrical

Left-weighted, room to style beside it

Garnet tile, deer red paint, walnut and antique brass. Everything is chosen; the walnut counter still has to be built.

Walnut counterConfirmed, ready to build
Vent fanTo be swapped

Where it actually stands

The smallest room in the house and the one carrying the most colour. Powder rooms can hold more drama than anywhere else, because you are never in them long enough for it to feel like too much.

The Office

“A moody retreat that reflects him — cycling, adventure, quiet moments alone.”

Still being decided

Which sofa

One decision still open.

Velvet

Deep olive, solid, quieter

Print

Patterned, lighter, more character

Vertical slat walls in near-black with warm under-shelf lighting. The envelope is set; the seating is not.

Sofa, ottoman, art & rugBeing sourced

Where it actually stands

This is his room, built around cycling and quiet time alone. The walls and lighting are settled. The sofa is the decision that will set the tone for everything still to come — velvet reads calmer, print reads more collected.

If this is close to what you want in your own home, the conversation starts smaller than you think.

Every room above is shown as a concept rendering while construction finishes. Real photography replaces each one as it is completed — that swap will happen room by room, not all at once.
