A serene California bungalow where simplicity shines

Pressed Juicery CEO Hayden Slater is known for his obsessive attention to detail, a trait evident in his renovation of a Belgian-inflected ‘50s Venice bungalow. Slater's hands-on approach included learning CAD to design plaster walls, meticulously placing bathroom hardware, and overseeing every detail of his bleached French oak floors. Despite working closely with his father and brother, who were also contractors, Slater’s perfectionism led to occasional tension. His aim was to create a minimalistic, artful space that contrasts with his former loft’s busyness, inspired by the serene designs of Aman resorts. Slater embraced a minimalist philosophy, letting go of excess items and focusing on the intrinsic value of each piece. His approach resulted in a strikingly clean and austere home, reflecting his desire to simplify while still maintaining a deeply personal and aesthetically unique environment.

"Why Peter van Cronenburg is the design worlds go-to for hardware and handles", H&G Magazine

Peter van Cronenburg is a leading figure in the design world for architectural hardware, celebrated for his unique and meticulously crafted pieces. His workshop in Ghent, Belgium, houses an extensive collection of historical and contemporary designs, including Venetian door handles, Shaker knobs, and Bauhaus latches. Van Cronenburg’s journey began as a cabinetmaker in the 1980s, where he grew frustrated with the limited, often poorly made hardware available, prompting him to start reproducing historical designs. In 2008, he and his partner Régine Yvergneaux transformed their passion into a full-fledged business. Their hardware, characterized by a blend of purity in shape, function, and proportion, is now sought after by top designers and installed in high-profile locations worldwide. The intricate craftsmanship involves hand-chasing details and applying unique patinas to enhance each piece's character. With a growing global presence and an expanding showroom in New York, van Cronenburg's work is a testament to the beauty and significance of well-designed architectural elements.
