Signature Architectural Details & Custom Features
True luxury is defined by the finishing touches. From custom-carved door capitals to statement walls, we focus on the small, intentional elements that turn a standard house into your personal sanctuary.
This reel showcases the grand and artistic details of one of our neoclassical projects. From the ornate main gate to the inlaid marble floors, carved fireplace, and unique wall art, every element is designed to make a bold statement.
Details are key for a good design. For this project, we introduced something new for the doors, creating bold, grooved cuttings and a solid cornice capital on top to enhance the beauty and grandeur of the master bedroom and living room entrances.
This is a work-in-progress shot of a triple-height courtyard we are creating. The design is inspired by the Art Deco style, featuring a symmetrical layout with contrasting black and white marble to create a dramatic and visually stunning feature wall.
Are you bored of simple courtyards? Here is a look at the process of creating our Art Deco-inspired courtyard wall. With passion and a clear vision, anything is possible, even cladding a triple-height wall with intricate marble patterns.
Making a frame in a space is an art. Here, we used a large planter to create a natural focal point at the base of a modern staircase, painting a beautiful picture on the blank canvas of the entryway.
Are you bored of using simple laminates? We have alternatives for you. This video showcases other options like acrylic fluted panels, fabric panels, jute panels, and even fluted marble panels that can add texture and style to your wardrobes and walls.
About this collection
Standard wall textures and factory-finish laminates often get boring, so we prefer exploring materials that add real depth. Whether it is moving from basic laminates to acrylic fluted panels or crafting custom cornice capitals for your master bedroom doors, these choices change how a space feels. If you want interiors that actually stand out, ask us about the specific material combinations that suit your room’s natural light.
Details that Define Your Home
Design is not just about the layout; it is about the story told by the materials you choose. In our projects, we avoid standard, cookie-cutter finishes. Instead, we look for ways to introduce texture and character. For instance, in our recent Art Deco-inspired courtyard projects, we moved away from simple cladding to create a triple-height feature wall using contrasting black and white marble. This creates a visual anchor that draws the eye upward, making the space feel grander and more balanced.
Material Alternatives to Laminates
Many clients come to us bored with typical laminate finishes. We often suggest alternatives that provide a richer tactile experience. We work with acrylic fluted panels, fabric panels for headboards, jute panels for texture, and fluted marble for feature walls. These materials do more than cover a surface; they change how light plays in a room and add a level of sophistication that flat laminates cannot achieve.
Why Custom Capitals Matter
Even doors are an opportunity for design. We recently started introducing bold, grooved cuttings and solid cornice capitals for master bedroom entrances. These architectural details act as a frame, signaling a transition from the hallway into a private space. By paying attention to these vertical elements, we ensure that every passage within the house feels intentional.
Our Process
We do not just hand over drawings and leave. We are present on site to ensure these specific details are executed correctly. Whether it is aligning the marble patterns in a courtyard or ensuring a door capital is perfectly installed, we are there to supervise the craft. If you have a specific vision or a tricky corner you are unsure about, bring it to us and let us see how we can make it a focal point.
