Modern doors don’t have much interest, often are hollow inside, they are very linear to suit the minimalist style, they are made of fiberglass or man made material and the hardware is functional, visually have nothing special to communicate. Sometimes, I do find a client who appreciates wood, glass and some details in modern doors, that’s when my wheels spins with creativity. There is a lot of studying going into searching for something out of the ordinary and in some case finding a craftsman who can reproduce a modern style with attention to details could be a really challenge.
Today’s challenge is about a mixture of some modern interior and exterior doors.
I saw this door at a pasta making factory in the administrative office, it divides the foyer from the office.
I painted the red doors with yellow ovals. In contemporary homes I like to have one door different than others, it kills the boredom of all white doors and it adds some fun.
In this client’s home all interior doors were made of mahogany wood. This one in particular is a linen closet in one of the bathrooms with marbleized glass panel, a real chic choice.
The colorful circle in this large entry door makes an unusual design. The floor of the foyer is white marble and when the sun shines on that design, the floor becomes a kaleidoscope of beautiful colors.
One of the many exterior doors I have designed for clients with particular and interesting tastes. It was painted in a verdigris finish to make it look the door was bronze and had the same patina of bronze statues.
The Thursday Door Challenge organized by Dan Antion continues. Come and visit with us. I hope you have enjoyed this challenge as much as I have. Ciao,
Valentina
