Cabo Beach House and Environment Furniture

Living Room: Malena Armchair, DWR; Coffee tables, Viva Terra; Lamps, Arteriors Home

I am working on the design of a beach house in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico right now. My clients are an energetic couple with a family who are looking for a warm contemporary home where they don't have to worry about sandy feet. Unique design with very little hassle were the criteria. These are the sample inspiration boards for the project.

The main materials consist of natural concrete floors and rustic walnut cabinetry. The Capiz shell light fixtures, mosaic tiles and rough wood provide texture and contrast with other clean contemporary furnishings for a balanced and casual design. The plan is to add accent furniture, accessories and art from local artisans.

Dining Room and Powder Room: Live Edge Walnut Dining Table, Hudson Furniture; Panton Dining Chair; Capiz Shell Dining Room Pendent, Oly Studio; Lotus Pendant for Powder Room, Roost, Powder Room LuLu faucet, Dornbracht; Orbit Mosaic tile for Powder Room, Walker Zanger.

Kitchen and Bar Area: Heath Ceramic Tile, Ann Sacks; Ceasarstone counters; Meri Drum Chandelier, Oly Studio; Faucet by Blanco

Master Bedroom and Master Bath: Bed by Hudson Furniture; Tolemeo light fixture by Artimede; Womb Chair by Eero Saarinen; Toilet by Toto; Sink by Wetstyle; Skyline Glass Tile by Walker Zanger

Secondary Bedrooms: Headboards by West Elm; Lamps by Arteriors Home; Chest by Environment Furniture; Bertoia Chair available through DWR; Glass Tile by Akdo.

Many of the things I have chosen for this beach house are classics. I wanted to introduce a line of furniture that could be known for the classics of the future: Environment Furniture. Their mission statement says it all:

Environment Furniture strives to create beautiful furniture that balances innovation and sustainability and to work in ways that value humanity and the environment now and in the future.

Here are a few pieces from their beautiful line:
