Things in the material world are just stories

disguised as objects.

let me tell yours...

A growing family takes root

After many months of hunting, this family of 3 found a new home in which to grow. They fell in love with the bones of this 4 bedroom home, but needed to shift the traditional interior to a more contemporary look.
In the design phases, we uncovered their unique sense of style. We expressed their desire for a more energetically  harmonious, interesting, playful, comfortable and welcoming space.

An american moves back to the USA

This American dad spent half his life living in Hong Kong, with wife and kids, surrounded by lots of dark Asian furniture. When he returned to the US as a single father, he wanted a clean slate energetically and esthetically. We created a simple beach house inspired by an Americana theme, with space for contemplation and room to allow the newness of his unknown future  to reveal itself.

Past, PresenT,
Future 

The 20 year resident of this beach bungalow had many happy times within these walls. This gem with stunning water views needed freshening and  updating inside in order to sell for  it's full potential. We had limited time to finish the cosmetic changes and purchase some new furnishings before the slated open house. We paid homage to the current owner by infusing the space with her objet from her travels around the world. She attracted an equally worldly new buyer at her full asking price.

 

 

A HARMONIZING PALETTE TO RELAX THE SOUL

We created this home organically.
The client's style revealed itself in the process
and we reflected that spirit through form, function
and materials.

MIXING ELEMENTS

Linen, leather, glass, tapestry and cashmere.
Precious antiques, flea market finds, collected treasures, organic elements and choice new pieces.
Everything comes together to make a home that feels personal, comfortable, and effortlessly chic.

BEACH HOUSE FOR A NEW LIFE

This second home for a newly single parent came with clear instructions:
create a simple, comfortable and all-American home with room to reconnect and play.
This is what we do best.
We make livable homes that create space for new stories and experiences.

UNIQUE OBJECTS BRING SOUL TO YOUR SPACE

Staging should be as thoughtful a process as any interior project.
Realtor wisdom says "keep it neutral" but we believe a home should have more soul than that in order to connect with the right buyer.

And what did the client have to say about it?
"Wow! you really got me! I feel this redesign reflects me so well, now I don't want to sell! I wish I could find a way to stay. I wish I had hired you sooner."

 

 Edgy Pilates Studio

 

This former mechanics garage was artfully turned into an edgy Pilates studio.

The client, a former dancer, wanted the space to feel like a version of her old NYC dance studio, warm and inviting.
