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.

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.
