If you appreciate modern design with clean lines, luxe surfaces and rich textures, you’ll love the work of Naples’ EBL Interiors & Construction. Interior designer Audrey Healey masterfully blends all these elements, with a penchant for fine European craftsmanship and contemporary minimalism. Here are a few of her favorite things.
Fried Egg Chair by Warm Nordic (pictured above)
This asymmetrical armchair is a testament to Danish modernism. Audrey thinks about chairs’ role as a benchmark of design that’s often mused on and reinterpreted by famous architects and designers: “[Chairs] recall fascinating icons, have graceful shapes and are comfort-oriented.” In this 1950s model, midcentury-modern master Hans Olsen created a piece that’s whimsical and practical. From above, the shape resembles a fried egg. The curved armrest provides the ideal perch to prop up your legs. “We love them,” Audrey says about the Warm Nordic brand, which re-released the chair in 2018.

Monoliths are so hot right now. And while massive stone structures may not fit through your front door or service elevator, this functional storage system gives you the impressive look of ancient Greek design without impeding on space. Audrey calls the vertical storage units “luxury closets.” Arrange the columns at whim to suit any area and need, with ample room for coat hooks, hat shelves and bag holders. “It offers everything you need to organize an entrance or service area,” she says.

Tau Kitchen by MandiCasa
Why not add a little rouge to the heart of your home? The recently launched MandiCasa fuses aesthetics with engineering to deliver kitchen surfaces that go the distance (think: scarlet cabinetry and marble-like counters that are low-maintenance and modernly stylish). The lynchpin is MandiCasa’s use of Fenix NTM, an extra-matte laminate that’s soft to the touch, fingerprint- and scratch-resistant, and easy to clean (even light scratches can be wiped away). Audrey considers the brand an innovator in the space.
