Glazed and Pearlized

S U M M E R 2 0 1 8

This Glazed and Pearlized silkscreen print by Damien Hirst is the perfect contemporary juxtaposition within this historically modern home.

Reaching nearly 50 x 50 inches in size, this colorful silkscreen titled St. Peter’s (from Hirst’s 2007 Cathedral series) presides over the dining room mantel. A kaleidoscope of yellows, blues and soft lavenders, this artwork is part of the artist’s varied practice that explores the complex relationships between art, religion and science.

With this project we hoped to achieve a lighter and more playful interaction between the artwork and the butterfly fabric on the chairs, while satisfying our client’s desire for a harmonious blend of old and new.

Wow Room

This  ageless and preppy "screened in porch" at the Merchandise Mart's 2016 Dream Home is made current with Lucia Engstrom's Flora photography.  Working with James Dolenc and Tom Riker of James Thomas Interiors, we successfully sourced artwork that made the above vintage inspired sunroom look and feel modern.  Engstrom, a NYC photographer with a fine arts degree from Georgetown, combines her love for color and obsession with light to create this glowing photograph that makes this room shout WOW!

Contemporary photography adds liveliness to sophisticated living on Lake Shore Drive.

By mixing historic elements of architecture and design with contemporary art, you can achieve a creative, collected look.  Here we added a superreal color photograph titled Deco Stairwell by Michael Eastman to a masculine space rich in history and culture to reach just the right design note.
