SHADES OF PLAY
well, that’s a first: a hot-pink topless grandma painting to welcome you in. and grandpa is just off to the left. come on in, don’t be shy.
these are our people—art collectors, cool parents + big dreamers who saw no reason to choose between polished or chill interiors.
dSPACE built this dream abode from the ground up after tearing down the family’s original home. we got into the grey matter + progressed an urbane agenda with concrete floors, jaw-dropping marble surfaces, linear seating and a promise that every sightline was a serious sculptural shout-out.
space to gather was the priority, and style would ride shotgun, but every fabric needed to be bulletproof against grape soda—or tequila. a whimsical brass sculpture descends from the top floor and the palette drifts into lighter territory the higher you go. when it’s time to pen that autobiography the kids can write, “dad wanted pink banquettes in the kitchen, but mom won.”
