The number of professionals it took
to accomplish the home’s madcap
transformation was stagging.
Home builders Joey Newman had two full
teams working around the clock to ensure
the project would be completed by the
owners’ arrival. “I look back and still don’t
know how we did it,” declares Joey. “We
had a day crew and a night crew in place
for the duration of the renovation”Joey
adds, “It felt rather like going through a
hurricane!
Paloma Teppa and Yair Marcoschamer
were tapped by the design team to
introduce interior floral and plant elements,
and to implement the landscaping.
They worked with landscape designer
Alex Rodriquez to envision the exterior
gardens. “Instead of small gestures we
chose broad strokes with our planting,”
Rodriquez explains, noting his nod
towards the modernist-inspired design
scheme and the couple’s desire for lowmaintenace, verdant landscape.

Every detail was in place before the new
homeowners crossed the threshold the
mindful result, says the wife, is wonderful
manifestation of modern elegance.
And she isn’t shy about admitting how
thrilled they are with the outcome. “I
opened the door and started to cry!”
She says. “There wasn’t one thing I
disapproved of; I call that a dream!”
