This Paradise Valley, Arizona, home had lovely French provincial touches but also some dated details that weighed it down. These included odd clusters of arches, awkwardly proportioned classical columns and chunky faux adobe accents. The homeowners, a couple with a teenager still at home, turned to interior designer Amy Klosterman, with whom they’d collaborated on a previous house, for a whole-home remodel.

The inspiration came from one of Klosterman’s recent projects the couple admired. “I suggested a clean, traditional style with a lighter palette of creams, ivories, taupes and off-black accents,” she says. In the kitchen, the designer replaced the hodgepodge of styles and novelty appliances with streamlined, well-proportioned elements and a refined material palette. The result is a functional, elegant space with a clean-lined look.

Perched in a tree canopy overlooking South Carolina’s Lake Keowee, this expansive porch offers year-round enjoyment. Design-build firm Ridgeline Construction Group created the custom home, which has a refined rugged look that fits right in with the trees along the lakeside. Designed for indoor-outdoor entertaining, the porch provides ample space for the homeowners to host their friends and family, including their adult children and numerous grandchildren.

The homeowners, empty nesters from Chicago, originally planned for the house to serve as a second home and as a hub for themselves and their family. However, they wound up relocating permanently. “The house works really well for them. When they decided to move here full time, we didn’t have to tweak a thing,” interior designer Maggie Madarasz says.
