ART + ARCHITECTURE
Many of the design
decisions were inspired
by the art—a top priority
for the clients. The first
commission by Los
Angeles artist Francine
Turk established the
palette for the living
room and adjoining areas.
Known for her figurative
work, Francine works
with abstracted color
relationships to invite
the viewer into the
depth and simplicity
of her work. The gray,
aubergine, taupe and plum
found in the painting are
translated into the fabrics
and accents throughout the interior spaces.
The commission, titled
“Mayree’s White Horse,”
is named after the
daughter’s beloved equine
companion. “Homage to
Magritte” by legendary
fashion photographer
Victor Skrebneski hangs
above the fireplace.
