in Belleair, the fourth and final Belleview Place Midrise lobby,
located in the Magnolia building, made its recent debut. Decker
Ross Senior Designer Marci Tempesta, assisted by Katie O’Neil,
created another brilliant design that is simultaneously functional and
beautiful, offering the comforts of home in this mixed-use space where
residents and their guests can mingle and socialize.
Mercury glass drop pendants illuminate this
cozy seating area, which is anchored by an
abstract designer rug in shades of slate blue
and taupe. Custom throw pillows reflect the
geometric print in the drapery panels and
comfortable upholstered cubes offer mobile
flexibility to this conversation area.
