A renovation inspired by Italian travels. Welcome to 3107 Beech.
The inspiration for this design was influenced heavily by a trip to Portofino, Italy. I first saw the property coming back from a vacation. The homes in Portofino dotted along the coast were just magical. Not that I was able to go in these properties or see if they had modern or classic designs but the pure vision looking up to the homes from the ocean sent my imagination into overdrive. Something about their style and charm enamoured me. On the way home, while in the airport, I picked up the italian version of Architectural Digest. That magazine gave me more glimpses of modern italian design. The inspiration in these articles combined with my imagination of the beautiful portofino homes and the story of 3107 Beech – was all I needed to know. This project had to be completed…
Antique Victorian Cordials Cabinet & Surprise Bar
Antique Victorian Cordials Cabinet & Surprise Bar – I estimate the item to be from the 1950’s-1960’s. It appears to be solid mahogany wood with leaded glass inserts. The pull handles also appear to be real silver. Inside the bar are vintage cordial decanters and small matching shot glasses. The decanters are red leaded glass with silver caps.

Two Creative minds
When you hire a designer learn from my mistakes. Hire someone that understands what lifestyle you live. They should know how your space is going to be used for special occasions and on a day to day basis. The designer should present ideas to you, for your approval. Not force decisions on you. Take their advice as they are, in general, the expert on design. But, do not ever let someone make a final decision in your home and you not be at least made aware of and ‘OK’ that decision.
