Crafting Timeless Elegance for Modern Living: Jacksonville Interior Design

Design Challenge

In the prestigious San Marco neighborhood of Jacksonville, Studio M Interior Design faced an exciting opportunity: creating a new Georgian-inspired riverfront estate that would cater to the needs of a young, growing family. Marsha Faulkner was tasked with designing a home that honored classic architectural elements while providing the open, functional spaces required for contemporary family living.

Our mission: Create a home that captures the timeless elegance of Georgian architecture while incorporating modern amenities and design elements to suit an active family lifestyle.

Our Solution

Embracing our role as luxury home designers, we:

  1. Designed a striking entryway featuring a grand curved staircase, setting the tone for the home’s elegant aesthetic.
  2. Created an open-plan living area that seamlessly blends formal and casual spaces, perfect for both entertaining and everyday family life.
  3. Incorporated classic architectural details such as coffered ceilings, wainscoting, and custom millwork throughout the home.
  4. Designed a spacious, bright kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinetry, and a large island, ideal for family gatherings and gourmet cooking.
  5. Crafted a luxurious living room with a fireplace as its focal point, flanked by built-in shelving to display the family’s art collection and personal mementos.
  6. Developed a cozy, wood-paneled study that provides a warm, masculine retreat within the home.
  7. Maximized the home’s riverfront location with large windows and French doors, offering stunning views and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
  8. Selected a sophisticated color palette of whites, neutrals, and rich wood tones, creating a timeless backdrop for the family’s evolving style.
  9. Incorporated high-end finishes and materials throughout, from marble flooring in the entryway to custom light fixtures and hardware.
The Result

This project stands as a testament to Studio M’s expertise in creating custom interiors that honor classic architectural styles while meeting the needs of modern families in Jacksonville. The result is a home that tells a story of timeless elegance and contemporary comfort, all while providing a beautiful backdrop for family life on the river.

The success of this project underscores the importance of thoughtful, expert-led design in creating homes that are not only beautiful but also perfectly tailored to their owners’ lifestyles. It serves as an inspiring example of how new construction can capture the charm of traditional architecture while offering all the amenities and functionality expected in a luxury modern home.
