<p>In the first foyer, a stylized, oversized shagreen pattern, twice gilded and glazed, was chosen to highlight the room. The differences of sheen in the silver hues, and the delicate veils of umber in the gilding gives this artwork exceptional luminosity and a precious quality. </p>

<p>In the second example, the walls of this foyer rotunda have been blended with two different metallic hues, creating a smokey, hazy feel. The columns have been treated with our gunmetal finish, tightly executed and in high lacquer-like sheen, integrating design elements in the terrazzo floor in a very effective way.</p>

The gestural nature of the artwork and the carefully chosen colors give this breakfast area a distinct contemporary flair.</p>

<p>This Dining Room ceiling was transformed into an updated version of a map of the stars, a time honored artistic theme and a studio favorite. In this specific rendition, a restricted palette of umber and silver pigments was at play throughout the mural. The planets and stars and their orbit were gilded in metallic leaf and interacted beautifully with the chandelier, creating an all encompassing, dynamic field.</p>

<td style="padding:0 14px; vertical-align:top;"><p>We recently transformed a tall, eight-panel screen originally canvassed with a unwanted picture into a strikingly elegant piece of artwork. The original canvas was filled, sanded, gilded and glazed into a bucolic yet stylish landscape. It required additional gilding and a fine crafting of the rocks, leaves and fruits surrounding the tree, which was all to become a perfect compliment and central piece to the designer’s layout for this living room.</p>

<img src="photo-barn-1.jpg" alt="Barn" width="710" height="474" class="spacer-img" /> The barn, as the homeowners, designer and everyone in the teams participating in the transformation called it, is an early twentieth century structure, that underwent massive refurbishing and upgrading. The goal throughout this process was to keep the integrity of the original building.</p>
<p>Virtually all interior wood used in wall and ceiling panels was adjusted by our studio. The technical procedures we used hid the gray-black coloration, sealed the wood, accentuated the original woodgrain and finished everything with an overall consistent color range.</p>
<p><img src="photo-barn-2.jpg" alt="Barn" width="710" height="477" /></p>
<p>The studio also modified and enhanced the patina of old and new steel plates and hardware, developed a finish for the pressed tin ceiling and another for the handpainted kitchen cabinets.</p>
<p>The results: a remarkable feat of direction, aesthetic finesse and technical skill of many, in moving from the old Barn to the new, without loosing its essence and character.</p>
