Modern Interior Design for a Santa Fe Residence

After looking at many contemporary kitchen designs, our client presented us with the challenge of creating a kitchen that would be both highly functional as well as extremely comfortable and aesthetically satisfying. Of prime importance to this client was creating warm and functional kitchen lighting design

As lighting designers for this project, we feel that our ability to have been involved in this project from it’s inception, allowed a collaboration between architect and lighting designer resulting in one of our most fully realized projects.

Our clients recently relocated from California to New Mexico prior to building this new home. They were intent on carrying the California penchant for contemporary home interior design to New Mexico. We presented to our clients images of modern architecture from the Canary Islands, as well as photos of the Anasazi ruins’ dry stack stonework. We suggested that these materials, though harking back to ancient times, would be very appropriate to incorporate into this modern interior design. The materials used throughout are random limestone floors, stucco walls inside and out, cedar ceilings and columns, and cherry cabintry. We designed much of the furniture specifically for the unique interior designs of this residence.
