Semmelmann Interiors
The Colorful Conversationalist

This home in Castle Hills was created as an exercise in precision, proportion, and unapologetic personality. Designed in collaboration with a builder-client, it was never meant to whisper. It was meant to command. The dining room, positioned as the nucleus of the home, defines that intention as a space that bridges the kitchen, great room, and bar while quietly asserting itself as the main event.
Framed by arched thresholds and soaring ceilings, the room balances structure with spectacle. A live-edge walnut table from Century Furniture anchors the space beneath twin Arteriors chandeliers, while hand-finished wallpaper by Wallquest introduces texture and depth to the home’s signature teal palette. Every finish, from the marble, limestone, and glass mosaic backsplash to the custom fluted cabinetry, was selected to perform under scrutiny and shimmer under light.
The result is a dining experience that feels both intimate and theatrical, equally suited to family gatherings or a full house of guests. Beyond its beauty, the home reflects the rare alignment of craftsmanship and vision, a designer unafraid of color, a client unafraid of ambition, and a collaboration that made both impossible to ignore.
