Traditional Mediterranean / Tropical Design-Build
Mizner Country Club, Boca Raton
Mizner Country Club – Mediterranean Design-Build Residence
After relocating to Boca Raton and purchasing a residence within Mizner Country Club, my client expressed the importance of working with a local interior designer who understood Mediterranean décor with Tropical influences. What began as a design consultation evolved into a fully integrated design-build renovation.
A Mediterranean Design-Build Vision in Boca Raton

Our collaboration quickly evolved into a full-scale design-build renovation, encompassing architectural refinement, interior detailing, and construction coordination throughout the residence.
This was a complete home transformation including:
Kitchen remodel with custom cabinetry
Living room and family room interior design
Primary bedroom suite interior design
Guest bedroom interior design
Home office with custom cabinets
Three bathroom remodels
From concept through installation, every element was evaluated for architectural authenticity and material cohesion.
Home Decor of Traditional British Colonial Style
Mediterranean Dining Room – Architectural Symmetry
Instead of a single china cabinet, I specified two substantial armoires to create symmetry and architectural weight while reflecting the structured rhythm common in Mediterranean interior design.
A distressed wood dining table grounded the room, while coral-patterned upholstery introduced warmth reminiscent of Tropical Traditional influence. The objective was to balance Old World structure with South Florida lightness.
Furniture selections included curated pieces from Tommy Bahama under Lexington Home Brands, blending collections to avoid a showroom effect and achieve layered authenticity.
Accessories and art can define the space and reflect the home owners personality

Primary Suite with Warmth, Balance, and Architectural Continuity
The primary bedroom maintained the warm wood tones inherent in Mediterranean interiors while introducing Tropical accents and color.

A cocoa-brown foundation was complemented by aqua blue, sage green, and rust-red details. The rust accent wall behind the bed added depth and contrast, framed by custom drapery and aqua sheers. Aqua continued throughout the bedroom and dressing area to maintain spatial flow.
Flooring selections were coordinated during construction:
Sculptured carpet with subtle lattice pattern
Porcelain faux-wood tile in the bathroom
Both finishes aligned tonally with the cabinetry and fabric palette.
The darker case goods anchored the space, creating balance between masculine structure and feminine softness—critical in a shared primary suite.

Custom Cabinetry and Millwork Integration
Custom cabinetry was fabricated to match existing woodwork, preserving architectural continuity. Grasscloth panel inserts referenced the warmth of the wood tones while introducing texture.
Functional enhancements included:
His-and-hers storage solutions
Mirrored cabinet panels for accessibility
Crystal hardware and lighting accents for subtle luminosity
Every millwork detail was specified within the broader architectural framework to prevent visual fragmentation.
Mediterranean Bathroom Remodel – Tile as Architecture
The primary bathroom remodel exemplified design-build precision. Aqua-blue glass tile was selected to relate to the adjacent bedroom palette. Metallic silver liner tiles were extended beyond simple trim—used as baseboard, crown detail, and an architectural accent above the water closet.
Rather than decorative afterthoughts, these tile applications were planned as structural design elements.
As for the master bathroom remodel, I chose this aqua-blue glass tile that relates master bedroom walls. I always love aqua and silver and found these metallic-looking liner tiles. I continued the glass tiles and liners around the room as a baseboard and crown detail as well as and architectural element over the toilet.
The mirror and pendant light was a gift from the Universe.
The light fixture is a silver metal vine with crystal glass flowers, and the mirror's frame has the same distressed silver finish as the liner tile. I painted the mirror to match the walls and found the same crystal flowers with the addition of a Swarovski crystal.
I regifted the mirror from the Universe and gave it to my client as a "Thank You."
Traditional Home Office with Memorabilia Display

Design-Build creates coordination
The home office continued the Mediterranean Tropical narrative through custom wraparound shelving supported by open corbels. The design-build approach allowed the shelving, custom cabinetry, wood blinds, and ceiling fan to be designed uniformly in color and material that is proportionate to the room’s scale.
Display of Sports and Family Memorabilia
The homeowner’s sports memorabilia collection was thoughtfully curated and integrated into the millwork, transforming personal artifacts into architectural features rather than surface clutter.
Having previously designed for professional athletes, I understand the importance of presenting memorabilia with respect and restraint.
