The combination of a rock fireplace, soft and vibrant patterned fabrics, tropical plants and an Italian stone coffee table lend itself to Colorado living with elegance. The large beams with strong iron brackets add a casual air to the elegant living space.

This warm and cozy basement family room was part of a much larger basement design-build renovation. Contemporary, stylish and warm were the design wishes for this family. They wanted a space that could double as a quiet family space as well as a great basement entertainment area..

This Master Bedroom media room features a motorized pop-up TV at the foot of the bed and another video display at the far end of the bedroom by the fireplace. Seamless control of the audio, video, lighting, climate, and security is by a Crestron control system. Speakers are located in the ceiling, the subwoofer in hidden in the wall. This home was featured as the Esquire Design House for 2008 and was designed and built by Xorin Bables of TempleHome. Any questions as to interior design details of this room may be directed to TempleHome, they may be reached at (323) 662-2220 The home is located in Beverly Hills, CA. photo by Glenn Campbell Photography

This large, luxurious space is flexible for frequent entertaining while still fostering a sense of intimacy. The desire was for it to feel like it had always been there. With a thoughtful combination of vintage pieces, reclaimed materials adjacent to contemporary furnishings, textures and lots of ingenuity the masterpiece comes together flawlessly.
