All of the appliances were custom powder coated to match the space. A particular tone of white was selected. No detail was left to chance. I love how the @notneutral mugs actually match the side of the @lamarzocco.usa machine. 😉 . . 📷 by @bshigeta . . #terrazzo #coffee #cafe #interiordesign #modern #architecture #losangeles #allwhite #sonyalpha #design #fbf #art #coffeeforsasquatch
This is one of those special projects that we’ve been so very fortunate to design. Some serious coordination had to happen to get all these materials to align so perfect. A big thank you to @modaainc for bringing out vision to fruition. One day I’d love to sit back and create a #bts with @claire.elise.clarity and the entire crew. We’ve had some amazing stories and a ton of hard work. Thankful Friday. Nah, thankful everyday!! . . 📷 by @bshigeta . . #terrazzo #coffee #cafe #interiordesign #modern #architecture #losangeles #allwhite #sonyalpha #design #fbf #coffeeforsasquatch
One of our all time favorite projects, @coffee.forsasquatch. A really cool thing happened during the design process! Our visionary and awesome client @claire.elise.clarity was always interested in bringing in some art. Well, during the initial design concept phase I contacted my friend @hueman_ and we dropped in one of her murals into our 3D presentation. It turned out that Claire had always been a fan of hers!! Serendipity. I love it. We ended up hiring Hueman to do a custom mural inspired by Sasquatch, aptly named The Mist. . . 📷 by @bshigeta . . #terrazzo #coffee #cafe #interiordesign #modern #architecture #losangeles #allwhite #sonyalpha #design #fbf #art #hueman #coffeeforsasquatch
Probably one of the most iconic houses in America. Richard Neutra was commissioned by Edgar Kaufmann Sr in 1946. Well guess what? He also commissioned Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright!! So epic. It’s reassuring to hear of such foresight and true passion of design. Architecture is a very interesting profession, as you’re expected to be an artist, yet most of the work is commissioned. We deeply rely on the vision and utmost trust of our clients. . . . #midcenturymodern #midcentury #design #architecture #modern #neutra #bmwusa #bmwiperformance #bmwi8 #palmsprings #summer
Fit for a King: Elvis’ Palm Springs retreat. Known as the Honeymoon Hideaway, commissioned by Robert Alexander, with unknown architect attribution. The house was designed as a grouping of circles, which Elvis appreciated, since he never wanted to be cornered in. I find this fascinating, as design can actually form liberty. It’s something to really think about. . . . . . #midcenturymodern #midcentury #design #architecture #modern #elvispresley #bmwusa #bmwiperformance #bmwi8 #palmsprings #summer
Frank Sinatra commissioned architect E. Stewart Williams to design his Twin Palms estate. At the time, it was $150,000 to build. Of note, Frank originally wanted a Georgian style estate. However, the architect was able to win him over with some renderings. Mr. Sinatra fell in love with the long lines and and non-traditional building materials . I still believe in the power of a passionate sales pitch. Evidently, the architect was able to convince the client with what would be “desert appropriate”, and pushed to stay clear of supposed design styling. . . . #midcenturymodern #midcentury #design #architecture #modern #franksinatra #bmwusa #bmwiperformance #bmwi8 #palmsprings #summer
