The striking Apparatus Studio chandelier adds a dash of asymmetry to the room’s perfectly balanced design. A dark dining table for 12 anchors the monochromatic dining room and complements the ceiling color.
A custom, 15,000-square-foot new build in Potomac was conceived for a multi-generational family of six who like to entertain. Designed to host large-scale gatherings as well as more intimate get-togethers, the seven-bedroom abode packs in plenty of function, too: It contains a dedicated office, a library that doubles as a piano practice space, and a 2,500-square-foot in-law suite. A large kitchen and adjacent family room act as the heart of the home with two oversized islands—one for family meals, the other offering additional seating for guests. A dramatic floating staircase inspired the material palette and the overall aesthetic.
Throughout, designer Sandra Meyer curated bespoke furnishings with a focus on elevated design, tactile warmth and comfort. With both children and pets under the roof, performance fabrics were incorporated to imbue the spaces with a practicality that matches the home’s level of sophistication.
