Nicholas Trobiano, owner and creator of Trobiano Studios, draws inspiration from the pieces and vintage items in his own home. This local design studio presents a selection of globally sourced housewares, vintage decor and home furnishings that inspire celebration. “It’ s a captivating mix of natural materials, artisanal craftsmanship and reimagined classics that speak to the same refined casualness I enjoy every day, Trobiano says. “Together, these pieces tell a story of shared creativity,”
Illuminate Intimate Settings
The multi-hyphenate artist and designer Brent Warr originally crafted this incredible Cirque Chandelier as a commissioned piece, but he soon decided to include it as part of his permanent lighting collection. Completely customizable in size and color, the Cirque Chandelier is handmade of plaster, pulp, wood and handblown glass globes.

Paintings That Evoke Passion
“Cladding” by Joe Turner, a tonal oil painting, features abstract forms reminiscent of natural stone and marble cladding. The many shades of alabaster, limestone and travertine form an unusual jigsaw-like grid married by the shading of charcoal and pencil. “I first discovered Joe Turner’s beautiful works on Instagram and quickly fell in love with his warm earthen color palette and architectural subjects,” muses Trobiano.

Monolithic & Magnificent
Soft curves of honed Arabescato marble interrupted by a “sawed-off” basin unite to create a beautifully familiar yet unexpected profile in the Ophelia Vanity by designer Jordan Carlyle of Carlyle Designs. “It is a striking study in contrast and restraint that perfectly captures my admiration for brutalist and neoclassical motifs,” explains Trobiano.

A Conversation-Worthy Dining Table
Dining tables are made for gathering and sharing meals and conversation. When seated at Studio Connate’s Marmont Dining Table, the conversation might be about the beauty of the table itself. One of the studio’s best-selling pieces, Trobiano’s pick for this table is Noir Marble. Intentionally monolithic, it boasts a bowtie base design and slab-like surface and comes in a variety of sizes and shades.

Feminine Focal Points
Just off his latest public art show entitled “Shell of Me,” materials artist Andrew Lusky handcrafted a series of sculptures and wall art composed of plaster, acrylic and concrete. Inspired by the human form and one’s unrestricted artistic expression, his series of Lusky-Made Female Busts are some of his most recognizable works. Individually crafted and uniquely textured, each sculpture offers a contemporary take on a timeless subject.
