California Modern Refresh

Overview

Designer Lucie Ayres shares her secret for adding warmth to a stark, modern California home. The dramatic roofline, a showstopping 12-foot metal door, stone floors and black cabinetry throughout make this home the epitome of modern architecture. Lucie’s solution? To counterbalance hard design elements with softer organic shapes and forms. By incorporating natural materials like jute and wool, a palette of earth tones and soothing images of nature, Lucie creates a simple, elegant and welcoming environment for her clients.
