Benning Design Construction is Sacramento’s premier design-build company. As father and son Bruce and Eric built successful independent interior design and construction firms, but with excellent design and superior craftsmanship they naturally began collaborating, and the design-build concept was born.

 

 

This penthouse was created with a comfortable contemporary aesthetic. “Citified with a bit of glamour” was the mantra – and it was a huge challenge for the designers.

 

 

The highest priority in this interior design was to allow the sight to remain free and able to speak for itself. In order to still be able to provide an interesting design element, products were intentionally kept either low to the ground or high to the ceiling.

 

 

Upon entering the penthouse, the immediate focal point is a bold bronze sculpture at the window, drawing the eye to the glass and beyond. The entryway features a bronze stainless steel and wood console against a backdrop of precious stone. The walls and ceilings were given a faux finish of metallic woven, grass-cloth texture, bringing an element of glamour and drama.

 

 

The house is glass-surrounded and to avoid issues with glare, every lighting element is dimmable and soft. HORUS II Suspension Light from BRABBU crowns the great room with a hint of European sensibility. The shape of this product has the perfect height as it hugs the ceiling, providing glamourous detail while not blocking the view.

To contrast the linear aspects of the great room, a large irregularly-shaped sectional was employed. The sectional provides flexible seating with opportunity for both internal and external views, conversation, or reading. It was paired with two iconic Mario Bellini lounge chairs that provide an elegant vibe to space. The great room is anchored by a 20’ round wool rug, which also serves to establish a separate area within the larger scope of the space.

 

Moving into the dining room, individual pendants adorn the split dining table. The custom dining table top became a true piece of art. It showcases a laser-cut brass panel with a map of Sacramento, the client’s hometown, speaking to his passion for maps and adding another layer of dimension and interest.

 

The designers wanted to give the house a special touch, with the tastes, preferences, and memories of the clients. For this, in the Master bedroom, an art piece was hung above the bed, blending a lifetime of poems, photographs, and song lyrics into a visual representation of a classic love story. Adjacent to this art piece is a full-size print of the client’s own photography, backlit and custom-framed to add personality to a room full of exquisite art. A collection of outstanding pieces, that would make any art collector proud, complete this couple’s penthouse.
