Troy Adams is internationally recognized as the creator of FusionDesign ™ in luxury kitchen, bathroom and wardrobe system design. His inspiration and unique perspective came to him during his seventeen-year tenure in Hawaii, where East meets West, and nature-inspired island elements abound. FusionDesign ™ draws on Asian, European, and American design sensibilities. Mr. Adams believes that in order to create a living space as individualistic as its owner’s taste, each space needs to take into account its surrounding spaces.




This kitchen design is a fine example of my FusionDesign philosophy in practice. It subtly blends contemporary European elements with soothing Asian accents like the glass shoji screen doors and Zen water feature, while offering increased functionality for the American lifestyle.

Marrying simple pieces with soft neutral colors gave this place warmth and fluidity. Sometimes it's just the little things that really make the difference. Here, simple window treatments and lush exotic pillows combine to add a subtle Asian influence with an overall result that is casual, comfortable, sophisticated and inviting. This design began with a breathtaking antique Japanese screen with a striking wisteria motif. The gnarled branch of the black vine is emphasized by the black lacquered furniture and accessories and reinforced through the dark-on-light palette. Clean lines and luxurious fabrics complete the design, resulting in a truly timeless spac... A subtle Asian influence is reflected in this living room. The interest is found in the blocks of color and the variety of textures. A two-sided Venetian Plaster fireplace wall also holds a recessed plasma screen. All television equipment, CDs and DVDs are stored in the dark-stained floor-to-ceiling cabinet that buffers the plaster from the red wall.

An elegant and opulent lounge was created using a hand-made 24 karat gold wallcovering imported from Japan, hand blown Italian glass pendants, luminescent glass tile in a lit niche surrounded by zebrawood as well as around a fireplace with a substantial cherry stained mantel. Custom upholstered lounge chairs share tulip

The color on the wall makes this living room warm and inviting, and the dark wood tones are offset by the creams and reds which lends to an Asian feel.

Use different types of seating for a more sophisticated look. The sofas and chairs don't always have to be a maternity set. Consider a large ottoman for double duty or extra seating. Make your living room style complementary to the rest of your home so there is visual continuity.

In spite of the Zen-type minimalist, Asian style, in modern life beautiful ornate and very opulent items can be included in a design. Keep a room uncluttered with minimal furnishings.

This living room combines surreal and earthy elements with vibrant color for a stylish and unexpected effect.

Inspired by the antique Japanese screen and punctuated with a red leather coffee table, this classically modern space embodies balance and harmony. The walls, hand-painted to resemble linen, are the perfect backdrop for the natural fibers that are used exclusively in the room.

The coffee table in this living room has a beautiful wedge wood finish which makes a chic, exotic statement in the room. Its height fits perfectly with the low sectional sofa and also offers extra storage with its wide side drawers. The circular shape of the drum table brings warmth and comfort to the reading space in the room. It has clean

The Asian theme of this sitting area and office is carried through with bamboo, ceramic garden benches and collected pieces.

A custom piece of glass tops a Saarinen tulip table base framed by a curvaceous silk-velvet settee. A wood bench stands in place of a conventional dining set in the dining area. Timber bamboo, lustrous overscaled Vietnamese pottery, a trio of sparkling Thai-inspired mirrors and about a dozen candles interspersed with smooth dark stones enhance the dining area's mature appeal.




The built-in banquette makes this spot a favorite place for everyday uses or large gatherings. Mohair and leather are great options for seating because they're long-lasting even with heavy use. The Tibetan scroll painting is surrounded by a Baroque-style mirror frame, giving it an eclectic look. Tortoise vases, dried hydrangeas, large candelabras and an oversized African weave pillow complete the room.



The bold, red color and use of leather in this Asian-style breakfast nook give it a unique look.



Candles provide an inexpensive touch of light that add just the right aura to any space. Create sparkle in a dining room by incorporating mirrored or glass elements. Adding the color red to any room or space adds drama and makes a bold statement.



A mixture of honey maple and black give this breakfast table a unique look. The centerpiece lends modern, organic style among the upholstered dining chairs.



Natural elegance resounds throughout this Asian-influenced dining room/living room combo. This design exudes peace and serenity while maintaining a modern sense of elegance.

Behind the glass doors, a Japanese tub and shower make up the wet room. Frosted glass doors parallel the room on the other side to conceal a water closet or toilet room.



In this not so typical Asian-inspired bathroom, a neutral color palate is chosen to evoke a timeless design. Black high lights on the sink vanity accentuate the details in the Asian-themed artwork and wall covering.



Zen Fusion at its finest. The combination of Asian influence with the contemporary lines and products of today creates this spa environment, which features walnut cabinets, Shoji screen doors with metal tile and faux grass cloth walls. A true Japanese-style tub and a large walk-in shower with body sprays and all the works provide the finishing touches.



The master bathroom features a new window treatment using two companion fabrics, superb accessories and wallpaper with a leaf pattern.



A large soaking tub in a Zen-inspired bath was created using earth tone tiling and multi-hued glass tile, clean lines and unique accents. A custom cherry stained cabinet hides the oversized tub equipment and artisan created metal art adds a bit of color and texture to the room.



The high ceilings and large surface area of this bathroom were an inspiration to keep the space minimal. The contemporary style square tub, situated next to full-height windows, was uniquely built into the ground along the same level as the new concrete floors. Asian-inspired accent pieces, including light fixtures, a teak stool and original artwork, keep the feeling Zen-like.

It's a calm and uncluttered space, and, for an eco-friendly home, interior designer Linda Woodrum would have it no other way. "I wanted an almost Asian feeling that was very clean and not overdone," she explains. The walls, covered in recycled glass mosaic tiles, punctuate the cooking space, which features streamlined espresso-colored cabinetry and sleek stainless-steel hardware and fixtures. Quartz countertops, in a shade of bold black and crafted from recycled material, add a hint of sparkle and continue the green story, as they are naturally antimicrobial as well as mold and heat resistant.

The design of the kitchen was inspired by the bright orange oven. The asymmetrical arch is an illusion because the two halves don't actually connect.
