In this contemporary dining room,

opted for a floating shelf rather than a console table or credenza

in order to maintain a lighter, more open feel within the space.

With no need for additional storage, the shelf provides a surface

for serving during dinner parties, while the dramatic grain of the

zebrawood veneer offers visual interest without overpowering the

dynamic Isabel Bigelow lithographs above.

elected a variety

of natural materials for this powder room in a northern Michigan

vacation home. River rock tile and a chunky piece of blue stone

for the ledge work perfectly with the vintage wooden bowl the

designers clad with copper inside to form the sink. A faux bois

mirror and custom lighting formed to mimic the shape of a

canoe complete the look.
