 Architect's Studio

 

With Kanner Architects : Originally a small airport hanger, this grande space was converted into an open workspace for a busy architectural firm based in Los Angeles. The walls and ceilings were painted a crisp white to emphasize the beautiful detail of the lemalee bow truss ceilings. The reception area was painted a pale blue, accented with cove lighting to compliment the clean, modernist feel of the studio. Roll up glass doors were positioned facing East to welcome the sea breeze and freestanding glass cubes were constructed within the space to be utilized as private office and conference rooms. Decorated with custom area rugs, modern functional office furniture and special made Millwork display shelves this studio is a designers dream.

Located in the Lower East Side of NYC the objective of the “MODERN” was to assist a newlywed couple into merging their two apartments into one cohesive and complementary space that reflected their individual personalities & tastes while blending their two styles into one complimentary home.

Malibu high-end living.

 

With Kanner Architects: Taking the form of two cubes linked by a staircase, the simplicity of this Beachside Abode counter the complexity and wilderness of the rugged hills surrounding it. The interior of the house is an eclectic mix of modernist art, furniture and accessories complemented by the client's existing collection of antique and found objects obtained throughout his travels to Africa and Asia. The home is situated for maximum sunlight and all rooms have expansive windows, taking advantage of the spectacular Pacific Ocean views.
