Queen Anne Art Deco Residence
A niche created by the need to maintain a small shear wall became a semi-private space off the Entry and Living Room for reading or conversation during an event at the residence. The Jaurez Michado mural, along with other art on the main floor tell a story of love won and love lost, asking the question "Is it better to have loved and lost, or not to have loved at all?" With this notion, the design team and client began referring to the niche as the "Love Shack".
The custom pillows and seating was designed and built by West Highland Design.
At the ceiling a carved pine floral grill disguises the main floor return air duct.
