 Meet Sage Homes

 We have been so blessed this year with all the opportunities to collaborate with new construction builders! This summer we partnered with Sage Custom Homes to furnish their newest build in the Des Moines Home Expo. This white brick ranch style home was so refreshing with white oak accents throughout.

We reached out to Abbi of Sage Homes, who was the lead designer on this particular build to ask a few questions about their team and the process of designing this home.

For this home, they were heavily inspired by English and European architecture. All of the finishes chosen for this home where chosen in order to keep the home effortlessly timeless and transitional.

We of course had to know what was their favorite part of the project - which was the kitchen! Abbi designed the Kitchen in a way that sets the tone for every other room in the home. The open concept allows it to be such a communal space, where everyone speads the most time together. Abbi deemed it as the heart of the home.

This was their second year participating in the Home Show Expo. This year, the home won awards for Best Master Suite, Best Kitchen, Best Layout, Liability, and Best in Show overall! The team at Sage put their hearts into this bulid, as they do for all of their projects - so this was an incredibility proud moment for their entire team.

At Sage, what you see is what you get. They pride themselves on honestly, quality work, and an outstanding finished product. We couldn't be happier to work with such an outstanding company!

We knew we had to pair the light and airy living room with a custom Cisco sofa - we decided to go with the Louis, one of our very favorite frames. It's wrapped in a gorgeous crypton fabric that's durable, and easy to spot clean. When we actually moved in the sofa to the space - it had a few spots from the move and Monica was able to clean it just by wiping it down with water. It looked like a totally brand new sofa - our love for Cisco's family friendly fabrics continues!

Under the Louis sectional we incorporated a stunning one of a kind, vintage Persian rug in with soft pinks, blues, and ivory. The Ghent Coffee Table, by Verellen was an obvious choice with the interesting low profile shape. We finished off the look with the Emmett Sling Chair in Merino Porcelain for optical comfort - sitting in the Emmett is comparable to being cradled in a hammock.

The kitchen and dining area was such a fun space to plan, we knew wanted to do something different for seating - we paired the Cyril Dining Table in Natural Reclaimed with the Augustine Dining Bench. For the grand island, the Ripley Counter Stools were a perfect fit. Of course, we had to add the Dhaka, a stunning vintage runner between the island and range.

The bedroom was one of our very favorite spaces of the entire house - in true Amethyst fashion, we had planned on gorgeous high pile wool rug for under the Round Off Bed but ended up being slightly too creamy for the space - luckily for us we had just gotten back from High Point Market where we may have gone a bit overboard purchasing one of a kind rugs so we had the most perfect rug in our back pocket. The second we rolled it out the entire team gasped in harmony, we knew it was the one. The art above the round off bed is Mountain High Art III and Mountain High Art II

 The Round Off Bed was a risk due to the non-traditional low to the ground profile - but it was one we were willing to take. We dressed the bed in fresh white linens and layered two quilts on top to create a dimensional look. We went with our OG Felix Nightstands in Hammered Gray to finish off the bedding area, the extra shelving is perfect for styling.

To finish off the bedroom, we of course had to add an ultra plush, crisp white Donato Chair in the corner for additional seating.

We were delighted when we heard that instead of planning an office - we were planning a zen room. If you've known us for a while, you know we love to incorporate a calm presence in our designs. We incorporated a new edition to our shop, the Elena Sideboard Hutch - perfect for styling, Ann Marie + Co styled this hutch effortlessly! We rolled out another new favorite, the Adobe Kahlo Portabella Rug as the base as we cannot get enough of the mushroom colors for fall. As the focal point of the space we used our ever-so-interesting Surfboard Coffee Table and the River Sling Chairs. Monica finished off the space with the Gliding Swan Art and of course a stunning faux tree for good measure.

The basement featured a movie room, a first for Amethyst - Monica has had her eye on the Grant Armless Sectional for this space the minute we started the project. We paired them with our Covell Sectional End Tables for extra length and to add additional surfaces for the space. We had to incorporate a playful print on the walls, we all lit up at Market when Monica gave us a seek peak of the Watermelon Suckers handmade print. We styled the reminder of the space with glass vessels filled with candy, our one of a kind vintage throw pillows, and a few throws.

Monica wanted to capture the same calmness as the Zen room in the basement living area. We wanted the Castle Sofa in Cappuccino to be a main focal point, as the channeled top grain leather features grounded the space wonderfully. The other statement piece in the space was our Nicaraguan Stone Table - a subtle nod to how far amethyst as come, as it was one of the very first pieces Monica ever choose to have in our Omaha shop. For the base of the scene we used the Carson Limited Edition rug in order to add a sort of softness to the area.

We had an absolute blast partnering with Sage Homes and couldn't be happier with how this project turned out. Special thanks to the team at Sage for having us and Ann Marie + Co for their expert styling of all the nooks and crannies!
