Transforming a 70’s ConceptHome into a Modern Palace.

36 37

The original design of the housewas a 70’s concept with pinkmarble floors, outdated staircase,

low and awkward ceilings, and neon litglass blocks throughout the entirehouse. The kitchen had a black plasticlaminate counter tops and glass blocksfor windows and kitchen island. Like ifdealing with these design aestheticswasn’t enough, the Client also re-quested that the foot print of the housebe kept for property tax purposes.

Almost every client has a list ofwants when a project begins, but in thiscase, the wish list was rather unconven-tional. Some of these requests were thatthe house be light, bright, and airy, thatthe temperature of the interior is easilyachieved at low 67F, that the housecleverly displays client’s art and acces-sories collected during travels, that thehouse reflects their unique interest andtransitional design aesthetic, and, we areto keep the neon lit glass blocks!

You can imagine the horror a de-signer would go thru with the last re-quest! That is... until a better, newer,more unique way is discovered that willgive client the effect they desire, butusing the latest materials and technolo-gies available. Equilibrium Interior De-sign decided this is a challenge worthdoing and an opportunity to create aunique home that will exceed clients’expectations and their wildest dreams.

As you walk thru the house, you realize that there isn’t a single area that doesn’t get specialtreatment. White marble floors and off-white walls create a backdrop for unique design features,and client’s love for color is evident everywhere. One-of-a-kind elements were used in everydetail on this project. These elements are particularly dominant in the living room, powder room,kitchen, and the master bathroom. Even furnishings are sculptural statements in exotic woodveneers and client’s colorful accessories are cleverly incorporated into the mix.

In order to accomplish client’s requests, careful attention was given to the lighting throughoutthis house. To keep client’s home bright and cold, we insulated the attic space, and used LEDlighting to eliminate heat created by traditional lightbulbs. The LEDs compliment white marblefloors and accentuate the brightness of the spacious living areas.


Since this house was built for entertaining, you will observemany unique lighting applications - from in-floor mounteduplights to colorful glowing surfaces. The Italian-influencedfireplace created from French limestone with Nero Portoroaccents is an obvious focal point seen from the staircase,foyer and second floor master suite. The floor lighting at thefireplace highlights its architectural elements while providingdramatic shadows

This unique and functionalkitchen gives a new meaning to thephrase “Kitchen is the heart of ahome”. Here, kitchen is the center ofall attention and a conversation pieceat every party.

Black glass cabinet fronts used inthe design offer ease of maintenance,and the kaleidoscope stone countertopsand backsplash contrast the cabinetryand always look clean. Color was veryimportant to this Client and thiskitchen is definitely not lacking life.

Designed for a client who loves toentertain, the centerpiece is an artisticinterpretation of a kitchen island. Thismonolithic sculpture raises out of thewhite marble floor and glows in thisopen concept kitchen.

You wouldn’t know just by look-ing at it, but extensive engineering de-sign was needed to ensure that it isstructurally sound and produces the ef-fect client desired. Plexiglass structureis clad in Polaris white quart slabs andlight makes the entire sculpture glow.

Even edges of slabs were polishedto ensure maximum light refractionwith slightly beveled seams that createdecorative pattern.

But this island isn’t just beautiful.It is also extremely practical. It is designed using two intercrossing partscreating two heights for different pur-poses. 36” high surface for prep workand 30” high surface for sit down dining. The height differences and location encourages use of the entiretable top for preparations. Further-more, storage cabinets are installedunder part of this island closest to theworking triangle.

For a client who loves to cook, appliances were very important, andsub-zero and wolf appliances we usedgive them the best product available.

Overhead energy efficient LEDlighting was selected paying special at-tention to the lamp’s CRI to ensureproper color rendition of items below,especially important when workingwith meat. Under-cabinet task lightingoffers illumination where it is mostneeded on the countertops.


Rich rosewood tones are dominant in the furnishings in this open concept dining room and continue from other areas of the house. This strong-patternedwood is superimposed over clean and white surrounding which creates perfectbackdrop for beautiful natural textures and colors. Starfire glass table top hasetched ribbon design echoing details found on other furniture pieces in thishome. Client’s artifacts collected during travels are displayed in niches highlighted with accent lighting enhancing their colors. Over and around thestairs, cascading glass lighting fixtures and rock crystal sconces add sparkleto the space.

Powder bathroom is the oneroom in a house where notmany rules apply. In this house,it is a vibrant example of tran-sitional design. As you enterthru frosted glass door deco-rated with colorful Venetian ac-cents, you are immediatelywelcomed by vibrantly redwalls reflecting softly in thewhite marble floor.

The red mosaic creates a back-drop that sets the playful and el-egant tone for this room, and itcompliments perfectly with thefloating, curvilinear blackebony vanity. The entire pow-der room is designed withbeauty and function in mind.Lets not be deceived here - ithas all the necessities of a bath-room. The three layers of thisvanity give it an elegant andsculptural form while housingLED lighting and offering con-venient and necessary storagein form of drawers. Special at-tention was paid to ensure unin-terrupted pattern of the ebonyveneer, maximizing its beauty.Furthermore, the weightless de-sign of the vanity was accom-plished by crowning it with athick textured glass counter thatsits a top of crystal spheres.

There are three lighting types inthis bathroom, each addressingthe specific function of thisroom: 1) recessed overheadLED lights used for general il-lumination, 2) soft warm lightpenetrating the rock crystal dec-orative sconces placed on eachside of mirror to illuminate theface, 3) LED lighting undereach layer of the vanity pro-duces an elegant pattern at nightand for use during entertaining.

The client requested that the shower is oversizedand feels like showering under a waterfall. This wasaccomplished by running four separate water lines tofeed the shower plumbing. When the two oversizedrain heads, two shower heads, and six water jets are allon, you get the feeling of being under a natural water-fall in the Amazon. Non of this would be possible intoday’s water starved world if it wasn’t for harvestingand special filtration system installed on this propertythat allows recirculation of water.

Variation of lighting types allows for varioustheme settings, and energy efficient LED lighting fur-ther enhance the beauty of this bathroom with mini-mum energy consumption. Even edges of slabs werepolished to ensure maximum light refraction with

beveled seams that create purposeful patterns insteadof hiding seams. Shower doors were etched with a pat-tern that adds dimension and provides privacy whilecomplimenting the mosaic pattern on the back wall.

The double sink vanity was floated off the floorallowing for maximum visibility of this artistic instal-lation. It was made of rosewood and designed withthree sections for drawers and storage. The three levelscreate a scalloping effect allowing each to be illumi-nated by LED lights which reflect elegantly in theonyx slab floor. Complimented by honey onyx top, andplaced against a 42” high onyx wainscot, it is a func-tional and beautiful millwork. This master bathroomis a testament to engineering, originality, and beautyseen in every detail. - END -

(RIGHT PAGE) The design of this master bathroom is set to compliment the natural stone slab floor thatsets the tone for this room. Because the entire second floor of the house was renovated into a mastersuite, the client requested an open concept plan for the entire suite. This allowed Equilibrium InteriorDesign Inc to increase the floor area of the bathroom and design an incredible statement piece which isthe floor. Honey onyx slabs were cut into oversized tiles to make them more manageable and installedin a diamond pattern preserving continuity of lines from tile to tile, and slab to slab. Furthermore, whatotherwise would be waste cut material, it was chiseled, flamed, and fabricated into custom mosaic in-stalled on the back wall of the bathroom and on shower floor. To ensure Client’s safety, slabs were treatedwith anti slippage treatment and shower floor was finished with matching mosaic.
