Biophilic Design Used in Interiors & Staging

The botanical influence in biophilc design by Denise Jadd, , principal Designer at Domaine Luxe!

🌿 Biophilic design is incorporating the use of your natural surroundings outside, and bringing that influence into your home design plan. The use of Biophilic design in homes and businesses has become a huge trend in the last few years, as it contributes to our wellness. It is a proven method to help us live, work, learn and thrive better!

Biophilc staging technique on the patio.

🌿 Setting the green tone in your home just makes sense, as we all want a connection to nature. It’s about instilling calm, a respite from our work, and our world’s industrialized, high speed hustle and bustle. It makes us slow down, take pause, and concentrate on and respond to nature. Like environmental psychology, and  neuroaesthetics, it’s naturally restorative. It can also aid in selling a home, just like in this outdoor living space we created in the photo above, where our staged home sold in just 1 day! With more of us at home and skipping travel this summer, this outdoor space doubles the home’s living area, allows for more freedom, vitality, and connection to the great outdoors. We have offered up this biophilic practice as a tip for helping others to stage their homes, and was just quoted by Redfin, the real estate portal, on this topic. Keep reading for more details on this.

🌿 The biophilc concept defined reflects how it is used within the building industry, both public and academic spaces, commercial and residential real estate alike, to increase the occupant’s connectivity to the outside environment through the use of direct nature, indirect nature, and it’s natural conditions. This example above proves having these expansive, bifold doors and an enormous skylight illuminating your kitchen space is an architecturally adept way to merge your inside with your outside. The entire space becomes seamless, where the shell seems to be opening to the sky and beyond, exposing the great outdoors.

A beachy, seaside retreat, filled with natural woods,wood beams, organic lighting, is filled with biophilc design touches.

🌿 We like to use these techniques to make a house appear more homey. Organic elements, reflecting the outside trees, flora, and fauna combined with natural yet made into decor elements like the woven basket, wood table, rope and shells all contribute to this wonderful feeling. Here, we rely on a potted palm tree to hug a corner, defining the boundary of the space. On the weathered wood coffee table, a fresh heather blooms happily, graced by a few well chosen, seaside decor pieces, like the shell tassel and a glass, rope handled hurricane lantern. A touch of real plants naturally lifts our spirits as we feel connected to nature. .

🌿 Well placed, simple greenery can be elegant and dramatic, especially in a Murano glass, one of a kind, handblown vase. The bold, metal detailed cabinet, offset by the quieter abstract painting, and fine marble sculpture, is gently enhanced by the fresh, green floral leaves. It can lead the eye through the surroundings, and direct the viewer for a specific experience or focal view.

🌿 Some floral placement is integral to enhance the decor, and amplify the impressive, overall design results. The fresh proteas seem to be made for this abstract, mixed media floral inspired painting in this elegantly designed, classic modern dining room. Botanical linens on the table, or floral rug can carry the theme throughout.

A floral theme does not need to be in pattern, but it could be represented in shape. These ginkgo brass sconces gracing the wall behind the upholstered bed, are perfect to illuminate your sleep space, and there are many beautiful floral inspired chandeliers available now.

🌿 Having biophilic art in your surroundings can help you focus, especially in a work space. This stunning creation of varying mosses handset into steel boxes is by an artist and landscape designer we like to promote and use on our jobs, as above. Stephanie is based in Fort Lauderdale. Ask us for more information on her.

A rounded glass wall on the right allows more light into the great room while the view to the back patio shows tree branches peaking through.

Perhaps it’s time for a green wall and planter to spruce up your space! Here a botanical wallpaper placed in the arched niche has a palm pattern, which is repeated in the live garden on left. Notice the rich mix of green upholstery and blonde wood tones all around, offset by a deep gray.

A light and bright living space is transformed by an organic design and color scheme and a few well placed plants.

🌿 Other times, we can use one perfectly large, green leaf displayed in a mod vase to convey the feeling of nature. Limit the window treatments, open the doors, and welcome the pretty view and let sunshine in.

As mentioned above, we are happy to share we got quoted about using Biophilic Design in staging in a recent article, which appeared on Redfin, “Staging A House On A Budget”. Here is the quote:

Incorporate biophilic design. This design approach seeks to connect the outdoors with people indoors. Open all your window treatments, let in the sunshine and the view, and bring the relativity of nature in with a few, well placed live houseplants, or fake, silk trees to set the green tone. This enhances vitality and psychological wellbeing, as buyers judge homes with all of their senses. Just be sure to avoid heavily fragranced plants or flowers because some people are sensitive to strong scents. It pays to be green in staging, as gorgeous greenery will always be in fashion.

Staging a House on a Budget: Tips from the Experts

We are pleased to be featured in the following staging tips article. Enjoy this informative excerpt repost from Redfin!

When it comes to selling your house, appearance is everything. Home staging is an art designed to show off your home in its best light, and because of that, it can make all the difference. But what do you do if you don’t have a large budget set aside for home staging?  

Don’t worry yet, we have good news! Fortunately, whether you’re renting out a condo in Portland, OR, or selling your home in Atlanta, GA, staging a house on a budget is a totally viable option. To help you get started, we asked expert stagers from across the country to share some quick and easy ideas that will make your house look great (and more importantly won’t break the bank).

Showcase what made you fall in love with the house. If you’re ready to sell, ask yourself: what made you fall in love with your house? Most likely those things will be the ones that attract buyers. Make sure those areas are cleaned up, de-cluttered, and emphasized so they shine and wow buyers. – Style Fusion Home Staging

Remove excess furniture. While many people want to display the many possibilities for each room, it is critical to keep a clean and open layout. Removing any excess furniture reduces clutter and opens up the airflow. Too much furniture can shrink an area dramatically and hide the true space of the room. – The Staging Tree

Try virtual staging. The most efficient and cost-effective way to stage any room in less than 24 hours (with zero furniture) is with virtual staging. On-demand virtual staging provides sellers the unfair advantage in the marketplace that will allow them to display any space in various setups and styles. – LRB Design Studios

Stage with items from the grocery store. When we’re staging homes, our final step is a trip to the grocery store. We generally stock up on 6-12 bottles of Pellegrino and attractive cans for the pantry area, a bowl of limes, and some margarita mix for a wicker cart. – Zesty Staging

Keep color and style consistent throughout the home. When color and style are a common thread throughout the home, buyers are more emotionally comfortable and connected. The use of no more than three main colors (use slipcovers on furniture if necessary, especially if they are well ‘loved’), and one style (be it transitional, modern, contemporary, western, traditional, etc.), will do the trick! – The Efficient H.O.U.S.E

Hang neutral subject artwork. A cost-effective way to hang neutral subject artwork is to buy inexpensive IKEA “Ribba” picture frames (24″ x 35″) and insert leftover wallpaper or fabric that you (or friends) may have on hand that coordinate with your home’s color scheme. For impact, hang two or three frames together approximately 5-6″ apart above a sofa or on a large wall. – Mackenzie Creative Home Staging

Switch out personal photos with scrapbook or wrapping paper. If you already have picture frames hung up, a great way to cover up personal or family photos is to use scrapbook paper or even neutral wrapping paper as inserts. Choose muted colors and patterns that coordinate with your space. Simply cut the paper to size and insert it into the frame, covering the current photo. – My Nest Is The Best 

Address visual clutter. The biggest reason people give for moving is a lack of space in their current home, so selectively prune anything that distracts buyers from seeing the great features of your home. Stacks, even if neat and straight, add weight and visual clutter to rooms. The Dezign Zoo motto is “when in doubt, take it out.” – Dezign Zoo

Paint the front door. A quick and inexpensive way to increase curb appeal is to give the front door a fresh coat of paint. Choose a bold, contrasting color that will stand out and immediately draw the buyers’ eyes to it when they pull up to the house. Black is always a winner, or you could choose a bright, trending color like turquoise, yellow, or orange. – Larimar Home Staging

Stage an extra bedroom as a home office. Since so many of us are now working completely from home or more remotely, this tip can go a long way in appealing to today’s buyers. With this, you want to make sure everything flows and is as open as possible to create a positive and uplifting working environment. For a budget-friendly office, sometimes simpler is better. There’s no need to go overboard with accessories and desk decor, clean and fresh is the way to go. – Universal Staging Company

Have matching lamps and side tables. A great low budget tip is to have matching lamps and side tables in the primary bedroom so it feels and looks expensive. Staging isn’t about pretty, it is about creating value in the buyer’s eye. – Ask for Staging

Declutter. Spend at least a few weekends to completely declutter closets (we want to see baseboards!), pantries, cabinets, and bookshelves. Take closets down by 50 percent, remove magnets from the fridge, etc. If you aren’t convinced if something is de-cluttered enough, take a photo and see if it still looks cluttered through a camera lens – Curly Willow Design Studio

Remove all small appliances, toys, magazines, and pet items. – Utah Elite Staging

Incorporate biophilic design. This design approach seeks to connect the outdoors with people indoors. Open all your window treatments, let in the sunshine and the view, and bring the relativity of nature in with a few, well placed live houseplants, or fake, silk trees to set the green tone. This enhances vitality and psychological wellbeing, as buyers judge homes with all of their senses. Just be sure to avoid heavily fragranced plants or flowers because some people are sensitive to strong scents. It pays to be green in staging, as gorgeous greenery will always be in fashion. – Domaine Luxe

Make the floors sparkle. Open up your space, let the light in and clean it up. It starts with your floors; if you have hardwood floors and want them to sparkle, mix up some of your household items, 1 cup white vinegar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, distilled water, spray, and rub. – DDG DESIGN STUDIO

Buy cheap Goodwill books for shelves and coffee tables. Book selection is critical because when people see a book it tends to invoke thoughts and feelings. When staging a downtown condo, I want to see big coffee table books that are focused around modern art, the city where the condo is located, or an interesting modern photography book. Oftentimes I will see a cartoon or comic book as these are common coffee table books but it’s hard for the buyer to envision their new upscale living with a cartoon book. I also like bookshelves to contain thought-provoking books and avoid anything controversial. – Vize Virtual Staging

Style the front hallway. The front hallway is the first impression for your home when buyers walk in. Get it right. Add a mirror for a great reflection of light and to make the foyer seem larger, add fresh flowers like roses or lilies. First impressions count. – Margery Wedderburn Interiors

Freshen up a room with a new coat of paint. If you don’t need a lot of paint and are maybe just doing an accent wall, many local stores like Home Depot have discounted paint cans from incorrect orders – whether it was the wrong finish, incorrect tint, or something else. These ready to use paint cans can be heavily discounted – even as little as $5 per gallon. – Roomhance

Use fluffy white towels. I always recommend new fluffy white towels in master bathrooms. White denotes cleanliness, and fluffy towels add a fresh spa-like feeling to the bathroom. Towels are inexpensive and can be purchased at any large retailer, plus the seller can use them again in their brand new home. – Lenko Design

Take great listing photos. 90 percent of homebuyers start their search online. To make sure your photos look great, take a picture of your exterior and every room – this is what potential buyers will see. Add and edit your belongings until the photos look worthy of a compelling listing photo. – House Candy Home Staging

Buy new, neutral throw pillows for the sofa and large accent chairs. Most of us have dark furniture because it hides more everyday use, but it also photographs poorly and can make a room look small and dingy. By adding new fluffy throw pillows to your furniture, it will update the room and brighten up the space. – The Staging Team

Depersonalize your home. Depersonalizing and decluttering makes a world of difference when selling a home that you’re living in. Keep the staging neutral and bright to help the home appeal to as many potential buyers as possible. – Witty Rentals

Creating a soothing sanctuary. The master bedroom is where we spend 1/3 of our lives, so why not make sure it looks soothing, clean, and stylish. Add solid white bedding (avoiding busy patterns) and layered pillows while removing excess furniture and clutter. A well-staged master bedroom helps showcase an inviting and calming feel for prospective buyers, making someone feel like they can move right in. – Step By Stage Interiors

Float furniture away from the walls. The way you choose to arrange your furniture can dramatically change how big or open a room feels. Sellers shouldn’t be scared to float sofas and armchairs away from the wall, as long as they are placed parallel to one of the walls in the space. This is especially effective with open floor plans, where the placement of a large sofa between two spaces can help define the separate living spaces. – Jodi Maturo Design

Make easy changes in the bathroom. Remove all floor rugs in the bathroom as it makes the floors look bigger. Add a small succulent or white orchid next to the sink. Your go-to towels are white, fluffy, and crisp — new hand towels will give a spa-like ambiance. – Maple&Moss

Arrange table lamps and floor lamps in a triangular configuration. Doing so spreads light evenly throughout the room. If you can’t add a third light consider hanging a clean-lined mirror on the wall to bounce additional light and open up the room. – Synergy Staging

Update your cabinet hardware. If you don’t have the time or resources to update your kitchen by replacing or painting cabinets, consider switching out your hardware instead. Updating your cabinet hardware to something more modern does wonders for your kitchen while keeping your project extremely budget-friendly. I recommend using a matte black pull and purchasing from Amazon to keep the cost well under $100.00. – Homeslice Studios

Create a kitchen that feels spacious and functional. Whether you’ve got a massive kitchen with a large island or a smaller galley-style space, all homebuyers will be looking for a kitchen that feels spacious and functional. Keep countertops cleared off so they seem more expansive. I like to keep my staging items to a minimum: a large bowl of fruit, maybe a tall, simple display of flowers or branches if there’s an island. If there are open shelves or glass-fronted cabinets, keep your color scheme neutral and monochrome. It will make the space feel clean and cohesive. – A Simpler Design, Dallas based stylist and furniture painter

Add flowers. A simple (and cheap) bouquet from a grocery store or some stems from the backyard is all that’s needed to add brightness to any home. The key is to choose the tallest stems that can be found and pair it with a large, clear vase for that look of sophistication while adding that perfect homey touch. – MM Decor

Try alstroemeria flowers, they look fresh and can last two weeks. They also look great for MLS photos and showings. – Preston Interiors

Only stage the key rooms. The key to saving money with staging is to only stage the key rooms. If it’s an occupied home try to use as much of what you already have, then throw in what’s needed to complete the job. – Lancaster Home Staging And Design

Let the light in. Good lighting is so important in making a home look and feel great to buyers. Take down any unnecessary window treatments to allow as much natural light into the home as possible and introduce some artificial lighting into each room with additional floor and table lamps. Light helps a space feel much larger and more open. – DL Custom Designs

Visit second-hand stores to find unique and low-cost pieces. These budget-friendly stores can help homeowners design inviting spaces for both their property listing photos and open houses. The trick is to be creative and think outside their personal decor preferences when shopping. – In Good Design

Focus on color. Color is essential when it comes to staging your home. We advise sticking with warm, neutral colors for painting. Lighter shades are not only more attractive to the eyes, but it helps buyers to visualize their own household items in the house. - Stone House Stage + Design

Incorporate fresh greenery. Fresh cut greenery can go a long way to enhance the decor of a staged home.  If you live in a tropical area, Palm leaves placed in a clear glass vase look amazing on a coffee table. Other greenery that can be used is Eucalyptus, Fern, or Fiddle Leaf Fig stems. – Di Leo Design & Staging

Interior Design Luxury 3D renders That Feel Like Home

Luxury 3D Render by Domaine Luxe shows the potential of space.

Is it starting to look up with this uncertain real estate market? Here’s something we thought could be an opportunity for clarity:

We create hyper-realistic, three dimensional photographic images, or
Interior Design Luxury 3D Renders, that feel like home.

It’s not only for our home sellers, investors and builders, but also for our Realtors, whose clients may be hesitant to buy or sell now.

Domaine Luxe has always offered Luxury 3D Renders for our design clientele with full service Interior Design projects. With renders, both buyers and home owners can visualize how a room could be, how the space and scale will flow, and how it will function. The colors, finishes, fabrics, furnishings and lighting, joined with our on trend designer touches implemented into the floor plan, help clients imagine the potential of an empty or dated space. As we know, these neglected rooms don’t convey much emotion. The results are about beauty and practicality, and in the real estate market, it combines together for the buyer to envision the space as their very own.

Three dimensional rendering uses CAD (computer-aided design), or computer graphics that represent mathematical data in the process of converting a 3D model of shapes into images that are 2D digital images on a computer. When coupled with great design, that’s a whole lotta tech for an artistic representation brought to life. 

Interior renderings are defined as images where the vantage point or viewing angle is located inside of the structure or house. 

We start the process by determining the details of the project and it’s desired outcome; we gather floorplans, CADs, and photos of the space, with different camera angles showing alternative view options and perspectives. The next step is we get to work on the design plan sourcing finishes and decorative elements to be implemented. This is needed at the beginning for illustrative purposes. This can take some time, from days to weeks depending on the scope of the work. Then we create a “Clay”, or a white space.

The Clay before finalizing shows different perspective angles.

Once the shape of items are placed into the floorplan, the modeling takes form. Reflection, shading and texture are what makes these renders pop. Materials shimmer, and wood tones look richer. Illumination and how the light is transported, with the increased ability of depth visibility is the final product. Daylight, sunset, or nighttime can be experienced as it comes to life. Which mood do you prefer? The 3D is from the perspective, and we achieve great views. Long rooms can be seen from far away. Rendering generating times can be several days for in depth, complex rooms.

Renderings are usually created for presentation, marketing and design analysis purposes.

• Still Rendering

• 3D Walk through and fly by animations (movie)

• Virtual Tours

• Floor Plans

• Photo realistic 3D Rendering

• Panoramic Renderings

• Light and Shadow Rendering

• Renovation Renderings 

It also enables clients to make design related decisions well before the property is actually built, or before demo begins. This aids in experimenting with building design and its visual aspects.

When looking at the room below, you can see how viewing two alternative plans with slight differences can truly help to form an opinion about which design a homeowner might want to choose to live with. Which design appeals to you more?

Luxury 3D Renders done to our highest design standards could be just the right solution for sellers! Differentiate your listing with Domaine Luxe’s high quality architectural and Interior Design Luxury 3D Renders modeled for your property, lavished with exquisite designer details and artistic textures. This is not like the average, commercial virtual staging, these renders are finished with high end, to the design trade only, bespoke furnishings. Everything is custom designed around the aesthetic of the space and what the house needs to help prove and show off its worth.

3D renderings play a major role in real estate marketing and sales. In this example, when looking at the room below, which listing photo would be easier for you to sell?

Remember, we can help you Virtually, with Vacant and Occupied listings.

Let’s chat over a cup of tea about Luxury 3D Renders for your Virtual Home Staging to convey the right feeling of home. Call us now. We look forward to collaborating on the success and the journey of your listing!

Make it a beautifully designed day!

It’s All In The Material Mix: How To Mix Patterns Like An Interior Designer

How to mix and use patterns in your space.

Mixing patterns to achieve balance, harmony, movement, color and contrast in your home furnishings and decor can be a little tricky, but a savvy Interior Designer knows the rules, but breaks them like an artist. Here’s some design tips utilizing some of the main principals or rules for pattern balance and alignment in interior design to spruce up your nest, and to help you see how we see. 

✨Start with your neutral color. Choose two accent colors. ...

✨Use at least two to three patterns in a room and vary the scale. ...

✨One of the patterns should have all three colors. ...

✨Try to use colors that are the same intensity of hue. ...

✨Vary the types of the patterns. Florals match well with stripes or small geometric patterns, paisley goes well with herringbone or stripes, ikat pairs well with natural pattern or stripes, animal prints goes well with paisley and graphic prints. ...

✨Distribute patterns evenly throughout the room, this keeps your eye moving creating a flowing rhythm of organized movement and continuity of visual repetitions throughout your space. ...

✨Don't place too many uncoordinated or random patterns on top of each other, as this randomizes your room rhythm, instead break them up with solids so your eyes have somewhere to pause. ...

✨Patterns don't have to be full of different colors, they can be tone on tone. ...

✨Matching draperies to one pattern used in upholstery or pillows can make a material impact. More can be more! Don’t forget the trim for a designer touch...

✨Remember, graphic pattern can be in your wallpaper and rugs or carpets, too, which can greatly alter your perception of the space. 

✨Restraint can be great, but know that maximalism of curated collections and intensely saturated colors is trending. Mix on!

Need help bringing it all together perfecting your finishing touches or perhaps you need to start fresh, and need a whole new space to enjoy? Our mission is a well designed home for all.

Spring Refresh with Our top 12 Tips: Get a Sunny New Look through accessories

As Spring is upon us, we are reminded of impending changes with inspiration and renewal. Sometimes we need some fresh flowers 🌸 to reshape our perspective, wake us up, to remind us that blooms are the product of nature’s best work. The flowers of Spring are new to the world! And our world at home has a very different meaning right now. There’s no denying that our happiness at home is more important now more than ever, during this time of the virus crisis, we are all focusing on seeking calm, comfort and well being in our sanctuaries.

Now that we are home on hiatus, it’s also a great time to think of the simple joy of good vibes, good feelings, and good sunshine and and how we want our home to feel. It’s time to consider a Spring refresh at home! To me, nothing says Spring like freshly picked blossoming branches or simple grocery store flowers displayed in pretty urns and handmade vases throughout our homes  This beautiful fine art, handblown glass vase is just the right vessel to hold our fabulous floral finds. Here are a dozen quick tips to get you feeling Spring fresh, and in a new sunny season frame of mind!

Think of swapping out your decorative pillows and throw blanket on your sofa to add either a pale, multi-patterned, or colorful spring look. Replace darker colors and heavy textured knits with lighter year round texture and color for a quick refresher.

Now’s the time to hop to it! Add some greenery to your space with plants or trees.

Change out a dark area rug for a light abstract or natural sisal to give the whole room a lighter look. Be sure to show off some of your flooring around the room’s edges.

Remove drapery or dated window treatments to let in the sunshine!

Now is the time to declutter and lighten up. Get rid of the excess of collectibles and dust collectors. Place some away, and later, you can pull them out to exchange for another seasonal refresh time.

Edit what’s on your coffee table. Remove dark, heavy books or accessories, replace with some that match your lighter pillows, and focus on some stellar metal accessories that coordinate with your tones and add shine.

Add a new piece of art or a reflective mirror to dramatically change the overall feel of your entrance or dining space, especially in rooms with no natural light from windows.

Buy new sheets and bedding for your master suite in ultra luxurious fabrics to lull you to sleep. We are always a fan of crisp white bedding, properly pressed. Add extra down shams for comfort. Try a decorative blanket at the foot of the bed. Lighten up your floor, replace heavy wooden case goods with a touch of metallic nightstands.

Refresh your kitchen or bath countertops with chic, new or repurposed accessories, and add something shiny to reflect light against a tile backsplash. Clear your cooking spices by the cooktop and remove toiletries clutter on your bath vanity. Choose the nicest of your pretty bottles, and gather on a marble or a mirror tray.

Place new lamps in your living room for a new look, as lighting can be the jewelry to your space. Metallic and white feels right.

Add some personality, fun and reflect a sunny disposition to your home.

Interior Design can feel impossible for most! Choosing accessories to finish off each of your rooms can be overwhelming, take a lot of time, and be difficult to find. Perhaps you’re not sure about bringing in the appropriate accent colors, or you are unsure on the scale and size of what will look good in your space. You want unique, individual and alluring accessories, that represent you and your style, and that complement what you already have, but can’t seem to find it in the usual stores. You may have many of the big pieces all figured out, but you have not been able to bring it all together to feel like the home you originally envisioned.

Have you been hoping for more good vibes from your surroundings, while we are recently spending more time at home, sheltering in place? Have you noticed what’s missing, and what you would like to change? Let us take the confusion away from you! We help you redefine your home with a finished style that is inspiring, timeless and one of a kind. Our “Finishing Touches Design Service” is a great way to bring us in for your refresh, as we source the perfect pieces to pull all the disparate parts together for you, saving you time, stress and aggravation, and from making costly design mistakes. Domaine Luxe will plan the decorative details to finish the job and make your house into the cozy and beautiful home you’ve always craved and imagined for your family. Live intentionally! Are you inspired to move forward? Learn more about this opportunity and our design services in our Luxury Interiors. ☀️

Bravo INSPIRATION From a Famous Flipper

As 2019 has come to a close, I want to take a moment and express one of my reasons to be cheerful is for my gratitude for a stellar year, and thanks to all of you who have been in it! A few days ago we shared our seasonal e-newsletter with our loyal group of followers. So many positive things happened this year especially this fall! I will share a few highlights here, over the next few posts.  Please stay tuned. 

First up: Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting celebrity designer and famous LA flipper Jeff Lewis at a private gathering in Fort Lauderdale. It was a thrill to converse all things design, with the seasoned and talented star of Bravo’s reality property show “Flipping Out”.  He shared his humorous and serious stories of running residential and commercial rehab jobs, managing his team and dealing with prospective and existing clients all while juggling his family issues. I questioned him about selling houses, project managing the trades on new construction, and furnishing purchasing, and was reassured and relieved he manages certain procedures exactly the same way we do! Great minds think a like. Here we are, duo the year! 

If you’re not already receiving our emails, and would like to be the first to know of special news, tips, tricks, or advance invitations to upcoming events, in the Palm Beach area, please go to our homepage of DomaineLuxe.com and sign up for our e-newsletter. 

With moments to go, all the best for the end of 2019 and cheers to the New Year and new decade!
xoxo Denise
