“This condo is in an historic 1902 publishing company’s old offices. (The historic Lippincott Publishing Company) We essentially bought a white empty box of 1900 sq ft and had to do everything from scratch — including bring up the plumbing and electric. We worked with an architect to design the space, but much of it was our own design and ideas. Did all of the decorating myself. And while proud of it, would appreciate some thoughts, help, ideas on how to improve it. I enjoy decorating and design – but its just a fun hobby” – Craig Hamilton Owner

“I fell in love with Bali and all its beauty, so I designed my entire beach house with Indonesian elements. From stone and wood carvings to daybeds and sheer canopies, Bali influence is everywhere you look. Since it’s our vacation home, and sticking to the budget was essential, we decided to import a container of teak furniture, marble tile, sinks, doors and art from Bali.” – BoBendana

“Sleek and high style living room.” – ATLANTADON

Jonathan Garcia is a Spanish designer whose designs are a great reflection of what Modern design is today. His work, which you can find on Behance, ranges from the great residential design you see here to other Architectural concepts and interiors. This particular project is an example of a new modern mansion and I want it.

This is what modern design is all about! Taking design elements from a common object like an egg carton and translating it into a great catchall. Perfect for holding all the change and lip balm, keys and glasses you were carrying around with you all day; they now have a place to sit until you leave the house. Great on the dresser or the front hall, this Eggflate by Josh Jakus also makes a great gift!
