There is nothing like something handmade and well crafted. This is the delight of design — combining wood, metal and textured glass to elevate your daily bathroom experience.

Close your eyes and picture coming down from the Umbrian mountain and driving across Tuscany.,,,the most beautiful landscapes lush with tones of greens, browns and yellows. The textures of the quieter medieval cities and walking around, going into little shops and eating well. Sip sip of the wine..This modern style family room design uncovers my client’s emotions towards one of their favorite places in the world. In a very tactile, visual and visceral way, we transform spaces and improve lives.

Run the water, add the salts and light some candles...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For our clients we have been dreaming up ways to improve their self-care rituals in the bathroom. It’s fun to uncover ways with our clients how to live well at home.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism® #neurodesign #livewellathome #homesmart #sensory

Something exciting is happening in Stamford, Ct! Sneak peek at this Facade design:@michelealfanodesign Next week the stone will be installed! #architecture #poeticmodernism® #neurodesign #color #plaid

My affection for curves isn’t just a matter of personal taste; it’s hard-wired into my memories. Oh I wish we were back in Spain sitting in Gaudi’s Park Guell. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism® #nuerodesign #livewellathome #sensory

Creative juices are flowing...at the inception of selecting materials, we look at how the rooms flow into one another. Some spaces may be light and airy, others dark and moody but it all works as a cohesive whole. #poeticmodernism® #neurodesign #livewellathome #sensory #modernliving #mixmaterials

Showers are sexy… especially if it’s a Wetroom. Showers combined with a freestanding tub are becoming the new sanctuary for your home.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wet rooms with Steam, smart toilets, freestanding tubs are things we are discussing with our clients. Through our lens of P O E T IC MODERNISM®, we love to help our clients find their identity for their home. To understand what makes them tick will naturally reshape living their best life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism® #sensory #tech #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #identity #bathroom #modern Photocredit:@vcapturephotography @kjtilesco @artistictileinstallation

Shadows and light can transform spaces and impact the way you feel. Way before this pandemic, I saw this light fixture at a design show in California and I loved this interactive light and how it sheds some beautiful effects @elishwarlop @westedgedesign⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism® #sensory #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #identity #lighting #transformation

Design can solve problems and impact our lives.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ MAD believes,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Spaces should make you think: intelligent to the needs of the people inhabiting;⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Spaces should make you feel: evoking an emotional response by igniting the brain positively via the senses;⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Spaces should make you touch: activate the senses thru through texture, color and shape;⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism® #sensory #tech #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #modernevolution

About to enjoy a cooking luncheon demo at the NY @dacorkitchen showroom with Chef Alex. This Dacor Professional range can be customized in any color you like with hardware finishes in black, brushed bronze and stainless. A beauty! #modern #kitchen #foodie

I still feel connected to my puppy who we had to put down during Covid due to a brain tumor.. We planted a dogwood tree in our side yard in his honor. I smile and think about him every day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism™ #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #planthappy

Mirror, Mirror on the wall.... look forward to when my mirror starts talking to me. Everything else in our homes are getting smart. Even mirrors now incorporate music, intelligent lighting, cool storage like collections @robern #robernbrandambassador But I would love my mirror to tell me what to do better with my skin or my fine lines...What would you want your mirror to tell you?

Form and Function, driven by handcrafted textures. The energy to make something by hand fosters a meaningful life. I love how this is imperfectly perfect with its copper stapled crack @dbo_home Wouldn’t this make you happy on your table? #poeticmodernism™ #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #onthetable #handmade

Today take the time and space to pause - to calm your mind in the crux of scrolling. Be mindful how something makes you feel.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism™ #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #sensory #happy

I like to think of client meetings as “think tank” time. We solve problems together.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Today we made some revisions to the center hall stair, making sure it will be a statement when you walk into the home.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #poeticmodernism™ #neuroaesthetics #livewellathome #sensory #transformation

Got an existing traditional brick fireplace that you don’t know what to do with?
