West Coasts Combine

Set in Peninsula at Treviso Bay, this project from Imperial Homes of Naples and Design West is a beautiful part of one of Naples’ newest luxury golf communities. This beautiful, private enclave offers contemporary custom estate homes and the Burano Model is an example of fresh design in Naples. Surrounded by a picturesque lagoon, this home overlooks the water to the championship TPC Treviso Bay golf course and has the perfect blend of coastal touches set against a softer, modern interior. 

“I loved this new take on design presented by the home’s exterior,” says Kelly Kurtyka, Interior Designer at Design West. “The rectilinear, California coastal feel of the exterior created a great launching point for my interior design plans.” Originally a model home for Peninsula, the design process for this kind of project is different from the plans made for a family home. “We start with the demographics and location of the home, then think about the potential buyers based on that information,” Kurtyka explains. “It’s important to focus on the age range of the potential buyer and the research we do helps us make the right design decisions as we create a home that appeals to the right buyers.”

The result is a home with pops of blue inspired by the home’s coastal setting all placed against a backdrop of neutral colors like taupes, creams, and white. For more information about Peninsula Treviso Bay, call your local Realtor®.

West Coast Trends

The home’s California coastal vibe is felt the minute you pull onto the dual tone paver driveway. Straight lines, linear windows, and glass garage doors give the home a distinctly contemporary feel which is a departure from the transitional coastal look popular for the last few years in the Naples market. Tropical landscaping enhances its setting in paradise.

Making a Statement

In the entry, textures and muted colors come together to create a contemporary feel. On the wall, a slab of Cambria Quartz surrounds cabinetry paneling from Wood-Mode in dark walnut. “The home’s softer contemporary look leans more transitional on the inside of the home,” states Kurtyka. Natural stone inserts placed in the portobello-toned DuChateau wood floors add visual interest to the linear space. The decorative bench adds a pop of coastal blue to the room and the chandelier from Currey & Company introduces a little sparkle.

Transitional Elegance

The perfect combination of contemporary design and coastal elegance, Kurtyka set up a comfortable great room that embraces the indoor/outdoor living experience. Warmer tones are mixed with creamy textiles and pillows with accents of slate blue from Kravet. The focal point is the Cambria Quartz clad fireplace with honed mantel. “A local fabricator was able to create a custom, chiseled finish for this mantel and we were all so happy with the result,” Kurtyka says. A comfortable sofa by Bernhardt and accent chairs by Lexington and Palecek create a seating area that facilitates conversation. Here, the Duchateau wood floors have been run at a 45-degree angle, for an elevated feel. Above the room, beams by Roman Rock reinforce the coastal theme. Opposite the pocketing wall of glass sliding doors, the wine bar functions as a storage and serving area. Kurtyka took the opportunity to create a wine bar and serving station thanks to a preplanned niche. The rift-cut oak paneling ties the great room and dining area together. The cast stone dining table from Bernhardt is surrounded by wood chairs upholstered in a soft gray leather-like fabric.

Modern Design

In the kitchen, a modern subway tile backsplash is laid in a modified basket weave above the gas cooktop. A java-colored hood perfectly breaks up the clean lines of the shaker style doors with chrome pulls. Cambria Quartz perimeter counters and a full height backsplash offer the perfect prep space and beautifully accent the granite on the island which pulls in the blues from the adjoining rooms. Lexington stools with cane backs and a Visual Comfort open lantern chandelier finish the space.

His Space

“I wanted to design a more masculine home office and the color was an important aspect to creating that feel here,” says Kurtyka. Painting the walls in Distance by Sherwin Williams, she accented the room with cocoa-toned leather and a wall covered with Philip Jefferies wallpaper which matches the box beams. A Stanley desk with open shelving and a credenza with textured grasscloth finish from Old Biscayne Designs provides working and storage areas.

Contemporary Retreat

The master bedroom’s architectural ceiling features boxed beams with cocoa-finished faces and white sides to create contrast and a subtle change. A cut velvet headboard from Century is placed against an accent wall with paneling details which brings a coastal element into the bedroom. Hung on the panel wall, a sculptural art piece from Palecek is subtle but impactful. Custom bedding from Kravet matches the gauzy drapes with slate blue Roman shades.

Feminine Touch

Moving into the master bath, a kaleidoscope-inspired Fabricut wallpaper with creamy white background and blue pattern sets the stage for a serene and feminine space. The custom vanity incorporates dark cabinetry for a little drama, and is topped by a thicker Cambria Quartz countertop. Above the vanity, the framed mirror features two mosaic tile inserts behind chrome sconces. The Kohler tub is set upon polished ceramic floor tiles with a wood border that ties the bath to the rest of the interior spaces. Roman shades and drapes over tub create privacy and soften the hard surfaces.

Entertaining Options

The home fully embraces the indoor/outdoor living experience so many homebuyers want in their Naples retreat. Through large sliding doors, a seating arrangement from Summer Classics adds a familiar mix of wicker and teak. The unique cocktail table from Palecek features a fossilized clam shell top with a resin body. On the ceiling, stained pine adds depth to the space.

Poolside Paradise

The shellstone pool deck is the perfect coastal accent to the home’s contemporary exterior. A raised spa with a 360-degree waterfall edge is accessed via stepping stones leading to and from the sun shelf. The pool’s midnight blue interior pebble finish matches the color of the nearby lake, enhancing the infinity edge design. Around the pool, chaise lounges with umbrellas facilitate a resort-like feel and are topped with slate blue pillows for design continuity. The outdoor kitchen and dining area are visible from this angle and feature stainless steel appliances and a beverage center, as well as a teak table and chair set with nautical rope backs and arms.
