Denver CO Residence

In this Denver, CO residence, YZDA crafted a design that pays homage to the timeless charm of an Italian villa, using a sun-washed color scheme and subtle wall finishes that add depth and character to each space. The design captures the essence of Mediterranean warmth, where every room feels like a sunlit escape. The region’s abundant natural light is thoughtfully managed with adjustable window treatments, allowing for the perfect balance of brightness and shade, while layered interior lighting provides both functional and ambient illumination that shifts the mood from day to night.

The design of a small room off the foyer, serving as an informal reception area, was inspired by a soft leather chair—a cherished memento from the client's distinguished time as a White House cabinet member. This intimate space serves as a welcoming nook for family and close friends to gather, filled with personal history and stories. Floor-to-ceiling draperies create an elegant backdrop for the baby grand piano, evoking a sense of sophistication and grace. Dramatic lighting casts a soft glow on an antique African wood panel, turning it into a stunning piece of art and a conversation starter.

In the powder room, a sophisticated golden almond color palette was chosen, inspired by the semolina wheat grasses of Tuscany. This color choice transforms the bathroom into a relaxing retreat that evokes the gentle landscapes of the Italian countryside, inviting moments of quiet reflection and tranquility. Every element in this residence is designed to evoke a sense of comfort, warmth, and elegance, where the beauty of classic design meets the personal touch of meaningful memories.
