Interiors By Lloyd Ralphs Design

Trend­set­ting duo, Chris­tine Ralphs and Michelle Lloyd Bermann, com­bined their exper­tise to cre­ate the design con­sul­tancy, Lloyd Ralphs Design. Both for­mer Club Monaco design exec­u­tives, these women are renowned for clas­sic style and impec­ca­ble detail. Their sig­na­ture high-contrast spaces are sleek and glam­orous, and often punc­tu­ated with bold zebra-print.

Here’s how these two fash­ion­able design­ers cre­ate time­less spaces.

 Mix­ing a vin­tage metal sculp­ture with pho­tographs brings archi­tec­tural inter­est to a strik­ing black and white art wall.

 Posi­tion­ing the white cab­i­nets lower makes room for cre­ative dis­play on top.

Trendy Gold Accents adds warmth and sparkle in the kitchen.

Sym­me­try is key in the lay­out of this din­ing area. A pair of floor lamps sit on either side of a black and white pho­tog­ra­phy dis­play. Two white bird sculp­tures are perched atop the table, which is sur­rounded by casual, Eames style chairs. The del­i­cate lines of the glass din­ing table make the room look even more spacious.

In a Petite Pow­der Room a side-mounted faucet makes the most of an oblong sink, and even offers stor­age underneath.

In a Sparkling White Bath­room draw­ers of many shapes and sizes accom­mo­date stor­age needs.  Mirrored walls and glass pan­els play with one’s per­cep­tion of space. An over­all white palette keeps the look immaculate.

In this White-on-White office, sim­ple stor­age boxes main­tain a sense of order and cre­ate a beau­ti­ful dis­play. Open shelv­ing looks calm, not chaotic, thanks to the all-white scheme and closed containers.

 A Glam­orous Back­yard Design

Mod­ern ele­ments meet clas­sic details in this eye-catching space.

In this mas­ter suite, a soft taupe fea­ture wall bal­ances qui­etly lux­u­ri­ous ele­ments like the sleek white uphol­stered head­board, mir­rored side tables and lamps. Black and white bed­ding is mixed with zebra-print sheets for added graphic appeal.

A teenage girl gets the star treat­ment in this sophis­ti­cated space - the epit­ome of the graphic-meets-glamorous look: a room inspired by a print of Mar­i­lyn Mon­roe.  The gold-toned bed is a warm con­trast to the black and white fur­ni­ture and linens. Retro-style lamps, on low side tables, suit the min­i­mal­ist design.

Wicker, raf­fia and rat­tan accents offer tex­ture and a casual, beachy note.   Mix­ing play­ful, rough and unex­pected objects with a sleek daybed and Saarinen-style table keeps the cot­tage from look­ing too pre­cious. White paint, fab­rics and Moroccan-style lanterns and cab­i­net lattice-work cre­ate an exotic feel.
