The Iconic Home - Laundry
“I really wanted anyone in this space to feel expansive and abundant—to be able to open their mind and relax in this little corner space that I designed.” - Leah Alexander
The Iconic Home - Office
“In order to keep it at a sophisticated level, I wanted to elaborate on the bones of the room, the elegance of the space itself, and not hide behind a lot of decorations.” - Amhad Freeman
The Iconic Home - Garage + Mud Closet
“This room design really emphasizes comfort and stillness in a space we typically use as a transition to and from.” - Brenda Danso
The Iconic Home - Entry + Powder Room
“Oprah says that your house should rise to greet you, and your foyer is where it says, ‘Hi.’ A foyer should be warm, it should be inviting, and it should be autobiographical.” - Elaine Griffin
The Iconic Home - Guest Room 1
“The vintage pieces I chose for the guest room were a part of a vision of an adult treehouse. The 1970s sculptural Brutalist piece reminded me of a headdress that Mother Nature would have worn if she was a person.” - Ariene C. Bethea
The Iconic Home - Guest Room 2
“Once the blinds are closed, that room is its own destination away from the world. All of the natural elements in the space really take you away mentally from day-to-day responsibilities.” - Carmeon Hamilton
The Iconic Home - Primary Bathroom
“I visualize this space in a world of multitasking. I want something where the end-user can just focus on one thing at a time.” - Eneia White
The Iconic Home - Primary Bedroom
“I would describe the overall design scheme of my space as rich in soul and embracing juxtaposition. When I enter the bedroom, I feel emboldened and powerful.” - Keia McSwain
The Iconic Home - Cabana Guest Room
“The inspiration for our design was bringing the outdoors in while still being fun and playful and imagining a space that wasn’t very straightforward.” — Tavia Forbes (FORBES MASTERS)
The Iconic Home - Wellness Room
“I wanted to make sure that it was a bit of a departure from the rest of the house. I wanted you to be able to go into the wellness room and feel like you have escaped to somewhere else.” - Anthony Dunning
The Iconic Home - Rooftop Terrace
“We wanted to create a space that felt so natural that you could just cozy up. There’s something about warmth that seems to balance you out and allow you to just be.” — Jason Bolden (JSN Studio)
The Iconic Home - Pool Surround
“My absolute favorite pastime is soaking up the sun—so I wanted to make sure that throughout the design, there were opportunities that lended itself to doing just that.” - Tiffany Cobb
The Iconic Home - Living Room + Hall
“The more time you spend in the room, the more you notice the details. And that’s how you sneak in great design without it overwhelming or being intimidating.” - Michel Smith Boyd
The Iconic Home - Kitchen
“I wanted it all to be soft. I wanted the stars to be the food, the family. All of the pieces are individually special—but it’s really about the homeowners.” - Brigette Romanek
The Iconic Home - Courtyard
“I wanted to bring luxury to nature. I wanted the space to be elevated to a place normally outdoor spaces are not elevated to.” - Christopher Charles Evans
