An open floor plan concept was exactly what the homeowners desired in their Arizona vacation abode. Interior designer and Phoenix Home & Garden Master of the Southwest Mary Meinz incorporated mix-and-match textiles that feature her signature shade—orange—for a vibrant contrast with the white walls and dark woodwork. The three-ring chandelier in the great room was made to complement the sparkling lighting over the dining table and kitchen island. “The owner wanted something round and light,” she says. “This intertwining idea came to us. But rather than something commonplace, it’s like jewelry to the room.” Architect/builder/landscape designer: Andrew J. Gramling, Gramling Architecture.

This much-used outdoor living room is decorated with an eclectic mix of pieces in terra-cotta and blue, giving it a Mediterranean feel. “A vacation spot every night!” exclaims Kauffman. Plenty of seating options and lots of little drink tables make it ideal for entertaining. “I think you can go bold with things outdoors, yet it should function like an interior space,” the designer adds.
