“I often reference the work of Joseph Dirand, Jeremiah Brent, and Jake Arnold,” she continues. “I appreciate how each of them blends traditional architectural elements with clean lines and thoughtful material choices.” - Amna also took cues from the arched exterior of the home and introduced gentle curves throughout the interior to echo that detail. - The first two things Amna sourced were the Breccia Capraia marble slabs for the kitchen and the ILVE range. Both had a strong influence on the direction of the design. “The ILVE range brought a slightly antique feel, which led us to incorporate vintage pieces throughout the home,” she says. “The marble, with its cream base and purple veining, became a reference point for the overall aesthetic. That balance between softness and boldness informed many of the decisions we made across the spaces.”

The kitchen felt too large and bright to suit an all-white scheme, so Amna went with a deep navy for the cabinets. “This choice was inspired by the Breccia Capraia marble we selected for the countertops and backsplash,” she says. Where the design team did use color, they leaned into warm tones like beige, rust, and red, especially in the furniture and artworks. “These are colors I naturally gravitate toward,” says Amna. “I’m originally from New York, and autumn has always been my favorite season, so that palette feels familiar and personal.”

Amna kept the overall palette neutral, with a base of warm white to create a calm and light-filled atmosphere. “We wanted the main living spaces to feel open and airy,” she says. “In contrast, we chose darker tones for the powder room and pantry, which receive less daylight. These smaller spaces gave us an opportunity to create a moodier, more intimate feel.”
