Most homes are outfitted with the same doors and hardware in every room.

The Concept Home, 5117 Pulchella Drive, is not.

"I take each room and consider it has its own entity. I just like the variety,” said Jan Green, who owns Jan Green Designs and has collaborated with builder Tim Clayburn for 10 years.

At the Concept Home, cabinet knobs range from square, hammered-copper ones in the spacious laundry room to the crystal "bling” versions on the wet bar cabinets, Green said.

Doors include those to the study, which are sleek and dark and include three panels of beveled glass and a tailored gold handle. Just next door are the master bedroom double doors. They are cream-colored and solid. The door handles are French-influenced, with a scroll pattern.

The home’s interior, including the European-style kitchen cabinets in an espresso color, is an "international mix,” Green said.

"The color palette is very dramatic and sophisticated. It’s mainly black, brown, cream, gold and copper. It’s very suitable for anyone to bring any color into the house,” she said.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Oklahoma is the recipient of the funds raised by Concept Home tours this month.

In turn, more than 125 Oklahoma children with life-threatening medical conditions were granted wishes through the Make-A-Wish Foundation last year, said Kandy Parsons, director of development.

The average cost of a child’s wish is $7,000.

More than half of the wish recipients headed to Disney World. However, one boy, who is interested in volcanic rock, went to Hawaii and another boy, slightly older, traveled to Las Vegas to meet Cher. That was a trip that took nearly two years to set up, Parsons said.

Other children prefer staying closer to home, including a little girl who asked to have her room decorated with a pink-and-white stripe Disney Princess theme.

In the upcoming year, the foundation’s goal is to grant the wishes to even more Oklahoma children, perhaps reaching as many as 160, Parsons said.
