Sometimes you have to go on a few awkward dates before you can fully commit to the one you loved all along. For Foxridge, that meant rendering the house in white, in taupe, in moody darks, and in brick—only to come running back to our original crush: White Duck brick with Natural Tan cedar.

The form of the house, imagined by Tony Frazier, feels like a European estate that both sprawls and tucks in, hiding surprises behind arches and gates. Materials were chosen with aging in mind—stone, copper, cedar, and pea gravel—because imperfection is what makes them beautiful.

After countless renderings, six sample walls, and one dramatic repaint, the final palette feels effortless and inevitable. Add in a soaring steel front door, handmade gates, and a tree-lined outdoor “room,” and the result is as much mystery as it is grandeur.

This house is essentially a private country club—with all the perks and none of the socializing. A dream, really.

In our early stages of playing and dreaming on The Foxridge House, we collected images that represented our client’s interests and personalities. All of these images turned up a very literal, unmistakable thread of the shades of green that eventually wove its way into the house, both in big ways and small.

The primary closet is an essential area in every home, serving as a personal retreat and a reflection of one's style and individuality. Take a look at how Noble Studio designed a conceptual digital closet inspired by Beatniks, a local men's clothing store.

Inspired by the creativity and enchantment of Haute House Kids, a luxury children's event planner based in Raleigh, we embarked on a journey to design a conceptual playroom that would captivate young hearts and minds.

Noble Studio has once again woven its magic for The SPEC House — a conceptual digital home designed and inspired by the local businesses that we know and love here in Raleigh. This time designing a conceptual terrace inspired by the whimsical charm of Amelia's Flowers.

In keeping with Quarter Note's aesthetic, the design features a clean contrast of black and white, evoking a modern and minimalist feel. This simplicity is further enhanced by the use of bright, airy spaces filled with hope and creativity.

These colors not only convey a sense of tranquility but also harmonize beautifully with nature, creating a space that feels both relaxing and rejuvenating.

“We are drawn to creating moments of interesting tension and juxtaposition, believing that the most enduring and current-feeling spaces are intelligent curations of old and new, gloss and grit, side by side.”

Incorporating large abstract greenery brings the natural beauty of the outdoors inside, enhancing the overall ambiance and creating a seamless connection with nature. This design choice aligns with Cucciolo Terrazza's commitment to sustainability and organic living.

The interior design elements come together to create a space that is as delightful as the treats it serves, making it a must-visit destination for design enthusiasts and food lovers alike. We wanted the SPEC house kitchen to feature the use of modern and classic design elements.

The bad news is that your house probably needs at least three times as many lamps as you think it does. The good news is you’re going to love the way you feel in soft evening light.
