We were pleased to participate in the 2015 St. Margaret’s Hospital Guild Decorators’ Show House. This charity fundraising event has donated more than 12 million dollars to healthcare services, and is an Indianapolis tradition. We were, once again, privileged to be part of the team. This is MischBobrickDesignLLC’s sixth year creating showcase spaces. Because this home was constructed specifically for the show, we worked with the builder to select finishes and details.
A peek into part of our space…….this family living room enjoys walls of glass facing East, South, and West, which provide glorious sunshine all day. We wanted the family to have the feeling of being outside, every day, and that is how we approached the design. Mirrored and polished stainless steel pieces reflect and amplify the light, day and night. A soft blue ceiling echoes the sky, bronze chandeliers in a branch motif, large trees and softly upholstered furnishings create a serene and naturalistic showplace. The stone floor looks and feels like a paved terrace. It is at once sophisticated and rustic.
We used a handwoven carpet with a Persian Isfahan design, in a muted palette of ivory, white, pale taupe and grey. The alabaster lamp and the mica lamp share those colors, and glow from the sunlight during the day and from the bulbs at night. Natural linen covers the deep soft sofa, and ivory leather covers the amply scaled wing chair. Nailheads in complimentary metals trim the upholstery. We selected a woven wicker armchair for the mirrored desk, comfortably upholstered with more natural linen.
This room received an award from the American Society of Interior Design. We were also honored with a “Key Award”, voted on by other professional designers.
Our work was featured in the Indianapolis Star special section featuring the show house.
