We asked Elyse to tell us more about herself and her design aesthetic, and share her thoughts about designing for spaces like <a href="http://www.waterfronttowerdc.com">Waterfront Tower</a>.<br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Please tell us about your influences and your experience in the field of interior design. </span><br /><br />“I have been designing interior spaces for over twenty-five years, and I have always been involved in the arts and painting. I went to college for business but then attended a graduate program for a degree in interior design. Some of the greatest influences on my design are architecture. Everywhere you look there is something of beauty to inspire you. European designs are also a wonderful influence. The natural habitat and surroundings of location provides great motivation for the design scheme of a project.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What special issues do you face when designing and decorating for a condominium space? </span><br /><br />“The overall aesthetic is most important. We focus on differentiating our designs to stand out and differ in distinction from the competition. We put special attention on the unit finishes themselves, but the amenity areas are vital. <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/gallery/common-area.cfm">Waterfront Tower</a>’s multi-purpose room, fitness center, cyber lounge, lobby and outdoor lounge areas provide an extension of living space to the homeowners as well as providing a sense of community.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">How do you successfully deal with smaller living spaces? </span><br /><br />“Smaller and limited living space is prevalent in urban developing today. We focus on space planning to ensure every square foot is being maximized. We always try and maximize the image and feeling of spaciousness but at the same time provide important elements that create a livable and functional space.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">How is the Southwest D.C. community reflected in your designs? </span><br /><br />“Southwest D.C. is fresh and exciting at this point in time. There is a whole new community being built that will vitalize and energize the area. Our designs were meant to be inventive and creative to reflect the area around and the exciting development happening. Southwest D.C. & <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/location/aboutDC.cfm">Waterfront Tower</a>’s style is young, hip, cool, and progressive!”<br /><br />Please <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/contact/directions.cfm">visit</a> our <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/floorplans/studio.cfm">new condominium model</a> to see the spectacular <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/floorplans/studio.cfm">model home interiors</a> designed by Elyse and her team.

Carroll founded <a href="http://www.modelhomeinteriors.net/">Model Home Interiors</a> in 1980, and in October the firm will celebrate their 30th year serving the Washington regional market. Here Mr. Carroll share his insights into the interiors his firm designed for the models at <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower</a> in a little Q&A session.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What’s the benefit of living in a place like </span><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.waterfronttowerdc.com">Waterfront Tower</a><span style="font-weight: bold;">?</span><br />“Condominiums may offer a little less space, but you have the views, the location, and all the amenities; you’ll be closer to work, entertainment, and other sought-after attractions.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">How did </span><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/location/map.cfm">Waterfront Tower’s</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> location influence your designs?</span><br />“Our design team wanted to bring vitality and freshness to the building. Because <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/location/aboutDC.cfm">Waterfront Tower</a> is in the middle of neighborhood that is undergoing a dramatic revitalization, we wanted to reflect the new sophistication of the area with cool, bright, and lively palettes and design components. The neighborhood is youthful and playful, adventurous and confident. One needs to have a sense of these things to live in an up-and-coming area.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What can you tell us about the design for the new model at <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/gallery/models.cfm">Waterfront Tower </a>you just completed?</span><br />“On the walls a standard group of grays is being used because gray is the new neutral. This shade, even silver, is really popular on the runways right now. We are also adding a good deal of white in the upholstery, bedding, and window treatments. And, you’ll also find accents of coral and ‘Waterfront Tower’ green.”<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What about the model’s furnishings?</span><br />“This model’s floorplan offers one of the largest living spaces. The look of the model is soft, comfortable, and contemporary—all with clean lines. And, with dark woods on the cabinets there will be accent tables with chrome, glass and mirrors.“<br /><br />We invite you to see Mr. Carroll’s team’s latest creation at <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com">Waterfront Tower</a>. <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/about/green.cfm">Waterfront Tower </a>offers stylish <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/floorplans/studio.cfm">new condominiums in DC</a>.

Pei has been quoted as saying “The important thing, really, is the community. How does it affect life?" He has also received the <a href="http://www.pritzkerprize.com/"><u>Pritzker Award</u></a>, the highest recognition the world’s architecture community can bestow, with the award’s jurists saying that Pei’s skill “approaches the level of poetry.” <o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; font-family: georgia;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]-->

Using your own sense of fashion, and some smart decorating tips, your new home at <a href="http://www.waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower </a>can reflect who you really are and look truly brilliant—without having to spend a fortune. With the world renowned architect IM Pei and a beautiful light-filled renovation, you will have a great starting point.<br /><br />Here are some “Interior Design for Less” tips from do-it-yourself style masters <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/">HGTV</a> and <a href="http://www.ivillage.com/">iVillage</a>:<br /><br />“Use home accessories as an extension of your personal style by accessorizing your home the way you'd accessorize your clothes. Add a splash of unexpected color, texture or embellishment —a beaded lampshade or embroidered throw pillow, for example.”<br /><br />“Let the sun shine in. Strategic placement of a mirror can add an enormous amount of natural light in your home. If possible, hang a large mirror in the living room directly where the sun beams in. In addition to bouncing light, it creates virtual space and overall appeal to a small room.”<br /><br />“Visualize the room as a photograph and try to determine which area would look the most empty in a flat view. An even distribution of color, accessories and furniture keeps a comfortable eye line around a room.”<br /><br />“Combine pillow sizes and shapes for more interest, and trying oversized floor cushions, which add a punch of color and serve as impromptu casual seating.”<br /><br />Find more great tips and decorating secrets at <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/">HGTV</a> and at <a href="http://www.ivillage.com/">iVillage</a>.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.hgtv.com/decorating/10-ways-to-spruce-up-your-place-on-a-dime/index.html">http://www.hgtv.com/decorating/10-ways-to-spruce-up-your-place-on-a-dime/index.html</a><br /><br /><a href="http://home.ivillage.com/decorating/0,,817xjgm9-2,00.html">http://home.ivillage.com/decorating/0,,817xjgm9-2,00.html</a><br /><a href="http://home.ivillage.com/decorating/0,,817xjgm9-5,00.html%5D"><br /></a><a href="http://home.ivillage.com/decorating/0,,817xjgm9-5,00.html">http://home.ivillage.com/decorating/0,,817xjgm9-5,00.html</a><br /><br />We welcome you to contact us today to schedule your personal tour of the new homes at <a href="http://www.waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower</a>, Southwest D.C.’s premier new residences—see how you can live your own style at this classic Washington architectural landmark.Waterfront Towerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16404550598106082655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7770757376278136087.post-22697590467831393502010-02-22T06:59:00.000-08:002010-02-22T07:03:07.754-08:00Waterfront Tower Neighborhood UpdateThe Latest News & Events from Southwest D.C.’s Premier New Residences<br /><br />With <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com">Waterfront Tower</a> over 51% sold, many residents have now moved in and are enjoying their new urban lifestyle.

Commissioned by Waterfront Tower especially for the building, this work represents the essential qualities of water, as well as Waterfront Tower’s commitment to the community and our hope for brighter tomorrows for the youth of our city.<br /><a href="http://artsontheblock.com/"><br />Arts on the Block</a> is committed to teaching our youth about the world of art and about themselves. For the students, there is opportunity to learn, to grow, and to benefit from their work. For the community, art collectors, and for those who support the arts, the organization is a source of beautiful and unique handcrafted artwork.<br /><br />"What an exciting opportunity it was for <a href="http://artsontheblock.com/">Arts on the Block </a>to be chosen to create a mural for Waterfront Tower - and what a challenge! We have done numerous large-scale public art projects and murals for the atria or reception areas of other facilities, but never for a private residential condominium. We were so pleased that Linowes Interior Design felt strongly enough about our work to recommend us to the developer The Bernstein Companies, and so thrilled that they were so receptive to featuring our work for this project.<br /><br />The young apprentice artists who worked on the mural had a phenomenal experience working with the design team. They learned so much about the design process - something that every professional artist experiences in creating a commissioned work. What a rare opportunity for high school students! That they were able to rise to the occasion is a credit to the talent of the design team in translating the needs of the client to the young artists, and to the skilled leadership of our lead teaching artist, Carien Quiroga."—Jan Goldstein, Executive Director, Arts of the Block<br /><br />"The Waterfront Tower mural was not only fun and interesting, it was also challenging. It allowed me to push my boundaries and think outside the box. As you have seen, the murals color pallet was all white. I and a few other apprentices had to think of ways to make each element of the design stick out through the use of texture and the way we packed the tile. Though this was not what we are used to designing, I believe that all the AOB apprentices that helped with the mural did an amazing job." "—Ala Alsulaihat, Apprentice, <a href="http://artsontheblock.com/"></a>Arts of the Block<br /><br /><a href="http://artsontheblock.com/">Arts on the Block</a> is also committed to helping the community achieve economic vitality.

"Our buyers are savvy purchasers and many have taken advantage of both the <a href="http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com/">$8,000 first time homebuyer tax credit</a> and the fact that the building is FHA approved. And this chic light-filled building has all the surrounding amenities and is next to the Metro. People just can’t find condominiums like this in the District at these prices,” concluded Mr. Duber.<br /><br />Offering sustainable living and modern comfort, <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower</a> has drawn buyers from a variety of cities and neighborhoods across the District, Maryland and Virginia. “Many of the current buyers have been attracted to the community because of its convenient location and the attraction of an urban lifestyle,” added David Mayhood, President of <a href="http://www.mayhoodcompany.com/">The Mayhood Company</a>, the firm that represents the community.<br /><br />Originally designed by the world-renowned architect I.M. Pei, <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower</a> condominiums are comprised of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom homes. The homes are exquisitely detailed with features such as floor-to-ceiling windows, open kitchens, Caesarstone countertops, custom white oak hardwood floors, and high-efficiency CleanSteel appliances.<br /><a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/"><br />Waterfront Tower</a> is adjacent to DC Metro’s Waterfront Station, on the green line. In the spring of 2010, nearby Waterfront Station will become the future home of two government agencies. It also will have a vibrant retail selection including a new full-service Safeway grocery store, Starbucks, multiple restaurants and a major national bank. <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com/">Waterfront Tower</a> is also a short walking distance from the soon-to-be revitalized Southwest Riverfront and the new <a href="http://www.arenastage.org/index.shtml">Arena Stage</a> theater.Waterfront Towerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16404550598106082655noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7770757376278136087.post-6233041621495202362009-11-25T12:54:00.000-08:002009-11-25T12:57:38.817-08:00Happy Thanksgiving from Waterfront TowerOn behalf of everyone here at <a href="http://waterfronttowerdc.com">Waterfront Tower</a>, we would like to take this opportunity to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving.
