THE GOAL WITH THIS ELEGANT HIGH-RISE IN IRVINE, CALIFORNIA WAS TO MARRY THE CLIENT’S TRADITIONAL STYLE WITH THE CONTEMPORARY STYLE OF THE APARTMENT, WHILE HELPING THE CLIENTS DOWN-SIZE BUT MAINTAIN THE ABILITY TO ENTERTAIN LARGE GROUPS.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES WAS TO DETERMINE WHICH OF THEIR TRADITIONAL PIECES WOULD FIT IN SCALE AND STYLE IN THE SMALLER APARTMENT, AND HOW TO COMBINE CONTEMPORARY, CLEAN-LINED ELEMENTS WITH THE CLIENTS’ EXISTING ANTIQUES AND OLD WORLD CHARM. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS, M.A.P. INTERIORS DIVIDED THE OPEN LIVING SPACE INTO THREE DISTINCTIVE AREAS: THE LIVING ROOM, THE DINING ROOM, AND THE KITCHEN. IN EACH AREA, SYLVIA BEEZ ADDED CUSTOM-DESIGNED AND UNIQUE PIECES TO ALLOW BOTH COMFORTABLE LIVING AND GRACIOUS HOSTING. SOOTHING, WARM COLORS TAKEN FROM NATURE, LUXURIOUS FABRICS WITH VARYING TEXTURES, AND ACCENT WALLS LIKE THE HAND-PRINTED WALLPAPER IN THE MASTER BEDROOM, WERE USED THROUGHOUT TO CREATE A LUXURIOUS, YET RELAXED ENVIRONMENT.
THIS PLAZA APARTMENT IS WARM AND INVITING WITH LOTS OF NATURAL LIGHT AND A BREATHTAKING VIEW, PERFECT FOR THE RETIREMENT THE CLIENTS ENVISIONED.
