BE IT BOLD AND VIBRANT or soft and subdued, color draws the eye in and captivates the imagination. Brilliant blues and bright greens, pinks, purples, reds, and vivid yellow — these are the hues that color the exciting interiors inside this issue of Florida Design. On the cover, interior designer Janie Molster reimagines a warm, 3,500-square-foot bungalow nestled in the idyllic Village of Golf. With a whimsical flai, the designer’s fearless use of color takes center stage as she pairs a plethora of textural prints with large-scale florals and wide stripes that come together in a contrasting mélange that blends effortlessly. Interior Designer Steven La Fonte imbues a condo on the Intracoastal Waterway in West Palm Beach with a bright palette of wild pink, cobalt blue and dark red. Working…

HUGGING THE PRISTINE SHORES OF FERNANDINA Beach on Amelia Island, Fla., this stunning 4,400-square-foot home naturally transverses the divide between inside and out. Slates of Brazilian Ipe wood panel the front exterior as well as the interior stairway wall, while Italian porcelain tile seamlessly flows from the facade through a glass entry that opens to panoramic ocean views. Interior Designer Marsha Faulkner along with her husband, lead architect Jason Faulkner and his team, designed this slender home to fit both the client’s every desire and a restricted lot size. “It’s a narrow house but based on the concept of three shifting planes,” architect Craig Davisson says. “The house is unconventionally stacked with the living area located at the top level and the bedrooms on the lower floors.” The interior is…

INTERIOR DESIGNER PHYLLIS TAYLOR HAS JOINED forces with NFL Hall of Famer Dan Marino and his wife, Claire, on many residences. From massive Mediterranean estates to their current 3,000-square-foot newly renovated ranch house in Weston, Fla., Taylor has come to know the colors, the favorite pieces, and many of the domestic needs of this very busy family. “The Marinos have six children — they needed a lot of space,” Taylor says. But now, with the older children on their own and the last two in college, those space requirements changed. Even though the square footage may have altered, the desire for openness, the strong devotion to cherished possessions, and the dramatic palettes of their previous homes would remain. Attaining all of that would be a challenge in a home originally…

THE CHALLENGE OF USING BOLD COLOR AND CREATING PURE sophistication in a diverse array of rooms isn’t always easy to accomplish, but this project turned out to be a memorable experience for interior designer Steven La Fonte. When homeowner Cathy J. Solomon commissioned him, she had her own vision for her condominium on the Intracoastal in West Palm Beach, Fla. “Cathy gave me specific directions,” the designer says. “She loves vibrant color and Roche Bobois, and I love vibrant color and Fendi Casa, so we went shopping in the Miami Design District to select furnishings from both resources.” After a major renovation of this 6,000-square-foot residence, La Fonte designed a colorful, cosmopolitan and chic apartment for Solomon, a former opera singer, who also spent years in the cosmetics industry. “I…

In a land as diverse and expansive as South Africa, respecting tradition and the environment informs every aspect of life. When that intent translates into design, the aesthetic expression can be as monumental as the surroundings. AndBeyond Phinda Homestead, which reopened a year ago after a complete rebuild, is one such example. Located in the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal, this sole-use safari villa is designed as a contemporary bush farmhouse — an architectural marvel that is subservient to the land. Fox Browne Creative, of Johannesburg and London, imagined a four-bedroom compound with ample living areas, both indoors and outdoors. The company’s design approach was one of sustainability and celebration of heritage. A flat roof design allows water to be collected and used for irrigation. Walls are crafted from repurposed…
