BACKYARD MAKEOVER Above/Before: The owners of this property wanted to upgrade their existing pool into a space that would better accommodate young children and outdoor entertaining. Additionally, they re- quested that the new design blend with their home's architecture and have the atmosphere of a tropical retreat. The existing pool on this property was unattractive and didn't accommodate young children well. The owners wanted a beau- tiful space where their kids could play safely and they could en- tertain friends. Instead of demolishing the existing pool, a second elevated pool that overlaps the original one was con- structed. Opposite Page/After: This high-end swimming pool makeover has it all: a vanishing edge, a luxury spa, an outdoor fireplace, a large pool house with a full kitchen, a waterslide and much more. The upper pool is shallow and great for kids, while the lower pool is deep and even has a new waterslide. The makeover was completed with oversized granite pavers around both pools. 172 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS

JEWEL ON THE LAKE Interior Design by Jennifer Covelli Text by Melinda Murphy Photogrpahy by Dennis Staley



he desire to build a magnificent dream home quickly be- came a reality for one couple when they met local builder Jennifer Covelli, President and CEO of Covelli Development Group. Jennifer first met these homeown- Ters when they previously purchased one of his model homes in the Summerlin estates in Las Vegas. Fast-for- ward several years, the couple decided they wanted something a bit more private with enough land to give them the opportunity to build the perfect home for themselves and their family. “One of the main goals for this couple was to have a home with sprawling land in an area that offered great access to the shores of Lake Las Vegas waterfront, movie theaters, shopping and restaurants,” Covelli says. Trusting Jennifer’s recommendation, the couple discovered a stellar lakefront property and contracted Covelli Development Group to build this spectacular home consisting of 9,200 square feet under air and over 12,000 square feet under roof. This extraordinary piece of para- dise — more than two-and-a-half sprawling acres nestled amidst the posh setting of Pine Ridge Estates — boasts sweeping panoramic vis- tas to the west overlooking Lake Las Vegas that allow for unparalleled sunset views that light up the evening skies. Commanding attention from the very first glimpse, this home’s exterior effortlessly combines classic architecture and timeless traditional style with cutting-edge modern amenities. A driveway lined with Royal palm trees introduces the house’s graceful symmetry and creates a dramatic prelude to the interior spaces that await. “I wanted to create a home with balance that had a peaceful open flow throughout,” Covelli says. “I also wanted to design a property that provided a majestic aura from the outside, yet a feeling of comfort and a sense of home on the inside.” UD Right: Outside, the loggia is the perfect entertainment space that includes a state-of-the-art Wolf grill for festive get-togeth- ers. A custom, tongue-and-groove coffered ceiling defines the open-air space from above, while powered screens that en- capsulate the area during sultry evenings allow tropical breezes to flow through. Automated drop-down hurricane shutters enclose the space at the touch of a button if neces- sary. “This project was a true collaboration with the owners who greatly influenced the many pieces we incorporated in the home that are reflective of their extensive travel through- out parts of Asia,” Covelli says. “We wanted this home to suit their personalities while offering a warm, welcoming place for friends and family … but most importantly, we wanted to be certain that we left them wanting for nothing.” 190 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS



Above: The kitchen — a favorite family gathering space — is complete with two marble-topped islands and plenty of room for cooking and entertaining. Right: Upon entry, the eye is immediately drawn to breath- taking views that take you through the foyer and living room to the pool and lake beyond. An elegant foyer stairway soars upward to lofty proportions that pinnacle with a beau- tifully coffered ceiling overhead. An air of distinction all its own resonates in the living room styled with a marble fire- place, tastefully appointed furnishings including a hand- some pair of mahogany chests and exquisite upholstered pieces, and a custom-crafted coffered ceiling. The dining room follows suit with its opulent flooring, detailed beam ceiling, and an extraordinary wine room that spans from one wall to another. 192 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS



Above and Right: “There are custom furnishings throughout the home that are designed and built by Tony Myers of New Age Design,” Covelli says. “We brought in Tony as we often do in many of our homes. He is an extremely gifted craftsman who understands scale and design. This provides wonderful pieces for the homeowner and eliminates an extensive search for lamp tables and cocktail tables that would scale well and fit nicely within the interior scheme.” 194 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS



LAS VEGAS BEACH HOUSE The couple wanted an overall “beachy” feel but also a sense of vibrancy and whimsy. Interior Design by Samantha Connor Text by Suzanne Estes Photogrpahy by Rich Talbot 196 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS

For months, Kirstin Jovanovski scoured design magazines seeking ideas for her dream home overlooking a prestigious Country Club. The wife of professional hockey player Ed Jovanovski wanted to find examples of the Caribbean/British West Indian influence for their 13,000-square-foot home in the Las Vegas desert. Her desire was to create a fun and festive space that could translate to formality when necessary. “I come from a large Florida family … and now with four children of our own, we wanted a casual and com- fortable home with a grand feeling that flows through,” Kirstin says. “I was involved in the design and architectural detail. I really like the plantation style, and wanted color and energy for our indoor-outdoor life which includes watching the beautiful boat action on the water.” The couple wanted an overall “beachy” feel but also a sense of vi- brancy and whimsy. Using a black and white backdrop infused with bold pops of aqua and coral hues, and an eclectic mix of both sleek and coastal inspired furnishings, the designers created a look that reflects the playful personality of the family. “The interior integrates well with the outdoors,” Connor says. “It had to be functional, family friendly, and full of life and color,” says Connor, noting that the family also owns a pet Doberman. Utilizing many of Kirstin’s ideas, the house, with a clean white exte- rior, has both a relaxed and sophisticated feel. The mahogany en- trance doors open to a stunning foyer. Polished white and silver checkerboard marble flooring shines. UD Left: The foyer flanks the home library that functions as an office for Ed on one side and as computer work stations for the children on the other.

Above: In fact, entertaining friends and family is one of the primary functions of the low-key, ele- gant loggia and pool area. With a flat-screen tel- evision above a large fireplace, wicker furniture and an aqua area rug covering marble flooring, this indoor-outdoor space is designed for easy South Florida living. “Synthetic woven finishes look natural yet are more durable,” Connor says. “And the mosaic-tiled pool — visible from the log- gia beyond the white stucco columns — is ex- quisite.” Right: Across the way, the relaxed and informal living room is designed for enjoyment. A magnif- icent custom-designed black-wood, marble tile fireplace dominates the space, where natural light flows through floor-to-ceiling windows. Above the mantle, a strong piece of flamingo art bursts with a coral hue in complement to the sofa’s array of accent pillows. 200 URBAN DESIGN I LAS VEGAS
