This media wall sits by a grouping of contemporary upholstered swivel chairs covered in two distinctly different fabrics. The light rail above holds halogen spots to gently illuminate the room, along with handblown blue and orange glass pendants that take advantage of the rooms great height. Glossy white lacquered cabinets float on the wall painted with graphic blue shapes. The richly polished concrete floor sets off the seating group and its custom white area carpet. The refined simplicity of this design is a result of carefully...
read moreWe recently created these double sided upholstered doors for the entry into a client’s media room. We drew the plans for this Indianapolis home with unfinished space in mind for this area , and the media room was finished after our clients lived here for a while. The doors are executed with precision detailing using pewter nailheads and tacks to make the pattern on the leather panels. Soft padding underneath gives a slightly rounded effect to the panels. The upholstery provides an added sound barrier for high action...

read moreMisch Bobrick was pleased to have participated in the 2012 St. Margaret’s Hospital Guild Decorators’ Show House & Gardens. For our inspiration, we imagined clients that appreciate clean lines, local artists and a bit of glamor. The room represents how a room can evolve over time. We mixed antiques with new furniture. Note how wonderfully the modern loveseat from Hancock and Moore in the Louis XVI Style with a lacquered frame raised on paneled legs compliments the antique Chippendale side chairs. Highlights of our...
read moreWalls and floors sheathed in soft blue glass mosaic tiles transform this modern bath into a watery wonderland. The bidet and water closet share a secluded alcove. Windows placed high on the wall allow privacy and natural light without shades. So many of our clients appreciate the utility of a bidet that we end up incorporating them in many new bathrooms. Yesterdays European luxury has become todays fixture of choice. The master bathroom of twenty years ago, dominated by a seldom used whirlpool tub, has evolved to include a walk in shower in...
read moreThis luxurious downtown Indianapolis master bedroom suite is the perfect escape from a hectic lifestyle. We upholstered the walls in the same fabric as the headboard and bedding material to create a soothing monochromatic scheme. The drapery panels, also in the same cashmere fabric, soften light and noise from outside. The effect is luxurious and calming.

That might be a fireplace in a living room, an intricate headboard in a bedroom or an island in a kitchen. A focal point is something that gives the room meaning and purpose and gives the eye a landing place. But equally important are the smaller details and accent pieces. These accessories serve to tie the room together, but also can offer real insight into what matters to you, the homeowner. On a purely aesthetic level,...
read moreWhy did King Arthur and his legendary knights choose to sit at a round table instead of a more traditional rectangular table? Think back to your own childhood family dinners at a rectangular table. Chances are your father sat at the head of the table, literally and figuratively leading the family and dominating the conversation. Even unconsciously, we yield power to the person sitting at the head of the table. However, when you choose a round table, that hierarchy breaks down. Everyone is seated closer together, and because there’s no...

The kitchen is a place to use all we know about good interior design, to make it function well, to make it beautiful, to make it your own. To please this homeowner, minimalism was key.
