Houston Interior Designer Lisha Maxey took this Museum District condo from the dated, mirrored walls of the 1980s to Mid Century Modern with a gallery look featuring the client's art collection. "The place was covered with glued-down, floor-to-ceiling mirrors," says Lisha Maxey, senior designer for Homescapes of Houston and principal at LGH Design Services in Houston. "When we took them off the walls, the walls came apart. We ended up taking them down to the studs." The makeover took six months to complete, primarily because of strict condo association rules that only gave the Houston interior designers very limited access to the elevator - through which all materials and team members had to go. "Monday through Friday, we could only be noisy from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and if we had to do something extra loud, like sawing or drilling, we had to schedule it with the management and they had to communicate that to the condo owners. So it was just a lot of coordination. But a lot of Inner City Loopers live in these kinds of buildings, so we're used to handling that kind of thing." The client, a child psychiatrist in her 60s, recently moved to Houston from northeast Texas to be with friends. After being widowed three years ago, she decided it was time to let go of the traditionally styled estate that wasn't really her style anyway. An avid diver who has traveled around the world to pursue her passion, she has amassed a large collection of art from her travels. Downsizing to 1,600 feet and wanting to go more contemporary, she wanted the display - and the look - more streamlined. "She wanted clean lines and muted colors, with the main focus being her artwork," says Maxey. "So we made the space a palette for that." Enter the white, gallery-grade paint she chose for the walls: "It's halfway between satin and flat," explains Maxey. "It's not glossy and it's not chalky - just very smooth and clean." Adding to the gallery theme is the satin nickel track lighting with lamps aimed to highlight pieces of art. "This lighting has no wires," notes Maxey. "It's powered by a positive and negative conduit." The new flooring throughout is a blended-grey porcelain tile that looks like wood planks. "It's gorgeous, natural-looking and combines all the beauty of wood with the durability of tile," says Maxey. "We used it throughout the condo to unify the space." After Maxey started looking at the client's bright, vibrant, colorful artwork, she felt the palette couldn't stay as muted anymore. Hence the Mid Century Modern orange leather sofas from West Elm and bright green chairs from Joybird, plus the throw pillows in different textures, patterns and shades of gold, orange and green. The concave lines of the Danish-inspired chairs, she notes, help them look beautiful from all the way around - a key to designing spaces for loft living. "The table in the living room is very interesting," notes Maxey. "It was handmade for the client in 1974 and has a signature on it from the artist. She was adamant about including the piece, which has all these hand-painted black-and-white art tiles on the top. I took one look at it and said 'It's not really going to go.'" However, after cutting 6 inches off the bottom and making it look a little distressed, the table ended up being the perfect complement to the sofas. The dining room table - from Design Within Reach - is a solid piece of mahogany, the chair upholstery a mix of grey velvet and leather and the legs a shiny brass. "The side chairs are leather and the end ones are velvet," says Maxey. "It's a nice textural mix that lends depth and texture." The galley kitchen, meanwhile, has been lightened and brightened, with white quartz countertops and backsplashes mimicking the look of Carrara marble, stainless steel appliances and a velvet green bench seat for a punch of color. The cabinets are painted a cool grey color called "Silverplate." The two bathrooms have been updated with contemporary white vanities and vessel sinks and the master bath now features a walk-in shower tiled in Dolomite white marble (the floor is Bianco Carrara marble mosaic, done in a herringbone pattern. In the master bedroom, Homescapes of Houston knocked down a wall between two smaller closets with swing doors to make one large walk-in closet with pocket doors. The closet in the guest bedroom also came out 13 more inches. The client's artwork throughout personalizes the space and tells the story of a life. There's a huge bowl of shells from the client's diving adventures, framed art from her child psychiatry patients and a 16th century wood carving from a monastery that's been in her family forever. "Her collection is quite impressive," says Maxey. "There's even a framed piece of autographed songs written by John Lennon." (You can see this black-framed piece of art on the wall in the photo above of two green chairs). "We're extremely happy with how the project turned out, and so is the client," says Maxey. "No expense was spared for her. It was a labor of love and we were excited to do it."

Ispirata alla tipologia a corte del baglio siciliano, la residenza è immersa in un ampio oliveto e si sviluppa su pianta quadrata da 30 x 30 m, con un corpo centrale e due ali simmetriche che racchiudono una corte interna. L’accesso principale alla casa è raggiungibile da un lungo sentiero che attraversa l’oliveto e porta all’ ampio cancello scorrevole, centrale rispetto al prospetto principale e che permette di accedere sia a piedi che in auto. Le due ali simmetriche contengono rispettivamente la zona notte e una zona garage per ospitare auto d’epoca da collezione, mentre il corpo centrale è costituito da un ampio open space per cucina e zona living, che nella zona a destra rispetto all’ingresso è collegata ad un’ala contenente palestra e zona musica. Un’ala simmetrica a questa contiene la camera da letto padronale con zona benessere, bagno turco, bagno e cabina armadio. I due corpi sono separati da un’ampia veranda collegata visivamente e funzionalmente agli spazi della zona giorno, accessibile anche dall’ingresso secondario della proprietà. In asse con questo ambiente è presente uno spazio piscina, immerso nel verde del giardino. La posizione delle ampie vetrate permette una continuità visiva tra tutti gli ambienti della casa, sia interni che esterni, mentre l’uitlizzo di ampie pannellature in brise soleil permette di gestire sia il grado di privacy desiderata che l’irraggiamento solare in ingresso. La distribuzione interna è finalizzata a massimizzare ulteriormente la percezione degli spazi, con lunghi percorsi continui che definiscono gli spazi funzionali e accompagnano lo sguardo verso le aperture sul giardino o sulla corte interna. In contrasto con la semplicità dell’intonaco bianco e delle forme essenziali della facciata, è stata scelta una palette colori naturale, ma intensa, con texture ricche come la pietra d’iseo a pavimento e le venature del noce per la falegnameria. Solo la zona garage, separata da un ampio cristallo dalla zona giorno, presenta una texture di cemento nudo a vista, per creare un piacevole contrasto con la raffinata superficie delle automobili. Inspired by sicilian ‘baglio’, the house is surrounded by a wide olive tree grove and its floorplan is based on 30 x 30 sqm square, the building is shaped like a C figure, with two symmetrical wings embracing a regular inner courtyard. The white simple rectangular main façade is divided by a wide portal that gives access to the house both by car and by foot. The two symmetrical wings above described are designed to contain a garage for collectible luxury vintage cars on the right and the bedrooms on the left. The main central body will contain a wide open space while a protruding small wing on the right will host a cosy gym and music area. The same wing, repeated symmetrically on the right side will host the main bedroom with spa, sauna and changing room. In between the two protruding objects, a wide veranda, accessible also via a secondary entrance, aligns the inner open space with the pool area. The wide windows allow visual connection between all the various spaces, including outdoor ones. The simple color palette and the austerity of the outdoor finishes led to the choosing of richer textures for the indoors such as ‘pietra d’iseo’ and richly veined walnut paneling. The garage area is the only one characterized by a rough naked concrete finish on the walls, in contrast with the shiny polish of the cars’ bodies.
