Senior Designer Marci Tempesta of Decker Ross
Interiors wanted to create an interior that would
become an extension of the naturally spectacular
waterfront view inherent in this Indian Shores
property. The condo was stripped down to the studs
during a massive renovation. At the initial meeting
with her Midwestern professional clients, Marci gained
insight into their needs, tastes and lifestyle. They wanted
a retreat featuring a clean line, minimalist, contemporary,
yet comfortable, environment that would not detract
from the beautiful beachfront location.

The designer created a stunning focal wall featuring
a linear vapor fireplace and flatscreen television
mounted on a stackstone wall, flanked by open
shelving with a variety of interesting accessories.
Faux fur ottomans offer extra seating, along with fun
visual interest and symmetrical balance.
