Statement Pieces in Your Home

Fratantoni Luxury Estates • September 26, 2023

Statement Pieces: 

Everyone wants their home to leave an everlasting positive impression on guests from the moment they walk through the door to the moment they leave. At Fratantoni Luxury Estates we understand the importance of statement pieces in your home and making a positive impression! A statement piece can be the focal point of a room or a piece that is subtle but still adds a flare. 

Have you ever walked into a room and your eyes are drawn to a piece of art above the fireplace or on one of the opposite walls? Artwork is a great statement piece for rooms that have minimal decor. Oftentimes as Arizona custom home builders, we have clients that have handmade artwork, decor, and other unique pieces that tell a story. 

Story-telling comes naturally with custom homes, each piece of the home specifically curated to fit the client’s dream home goals. From the materials used, all the way to the centerpiece on a dining room table. Statement pieces help tell the story of the home. It may seem overwhelming to choose a piece that becomes the main focal point, however, some pieces our Scottsdale home builders have seen include the following: 

Examples of Statement Pieces in Your Home: 

 

The Royal Chateau has the perfect balance of statues and artwork that draw your attention. In the formal dining room, subtle and neutral colors allow room for pops of gold from the artwork to draw people’s attention:

Statement pieces can be everywhere in your home! Including the powder bath. Such as the Modern Estate below which has mirrored walls:

Ditch the Idea of Matching! 

Statement pieces do not have to match! Ignore the idea of having a statement piece to match the aesthetic of the room or of the home. However, one rule of statement pieces is to ensure that the piece’s scale is not too big for the room. Having other items in the room to support an “extras” role balances out the piece and adds more dimensions and colors. 

Overall, patterns, dimensions, textures, and colors are all attributes that are to be considered when adding a statement piece. Your home is your masterpiece!

How Builders Create Statement Ceilings and Architectural Details in Luxury Homes

By Angelo Fratantoni • December 17, 2025
In luxury custom homes, architectural details define the experience of the space. Among the most impactful of these details are statement ceilings. Often referred to as the fifth wall, ceilings play a critical role in elevating a home from beautiful to exceptional. For discerning homeowners, the difference lies not only in the design itself, but in the builder’s ability to execute it flawlessly.  At Fratantoni Luxury Estates, statement ceilings and architectural detailing are approached as integral elements of the home’s overall design, not decorative afterthoughts. These features require early planning, technical expertise, and a deep understanding of construction at the highest level.
