The softest of light is like a warm hug. Early morning @casa_modesta . This family home passed down from grandparents, redesigned by the sister (architect) and brother is full of love and sense of place. 📸 by Sylvia Hardy #casamodesta #algarve #archilovers
In the garden - a Pacific Palisades poolside pergola; a Harold Levitt restoration in Beverly Hills; and a Thomas Loring restoration in Massachusetts complete with the gentlest pony.
A crisp built-in library replaced an awkward 67 square-foot nook in between a kitchen and a front door. Design by @annepoondesign , millwork by @hellojohi , built by @hike.space . Published in @dwellmagazine . Link in bio. And special thanks to the homeowners for the live setar music ✨
The firepit lounge, designed by @nectar.is.sweet . Published in @sunsetmag . Thank you @tendingwest . ✨ It’s a thoughtful and inspiring read for the spring.
Happy New Year! Looking forward to another great year of capturing the light and shadows of our world. Working with architects and designers focused on new and old materials, textures, the interplay of nature, and an attention to the topography of how light shifts throughout a site is a dream for me. Let’s start working in 2026! xx Sylvia
