Perfect Powder Room Roman Shade with bell fringe trim

Insanely beautiful Polyhedral Chandelier installed in our client’s primary bedroom. Photos don’t do it justice. The Amethyst color is richly romantic. Can’t show the full room yet. But soon we hope!!

We decided to retain and reupholster this pair of custom sofas our client’s mother had owned. Reimagining family pieces for modern living respects the people who paved the way for you. It also respects the planet. Reuse, recycycle, repurpose. And this mohair throw!!!!!!! Cozy times.

Added some snazzy pizzazz to this eat in kitchen with our custom upholstered banquette

Moody millwork in deep blue offers a focused spot for movie watching as well as display for objet. Wool drapery softens sound and adds to the cozy vibe.

As soon as I saw this sweet vintage settee I knew we needed to give it some love. (Swipe through to see the before photo.) Found a dusty plum linen velvet and a pretty brush fringe which gives the piece personality as well as a romantic softness. Good bones are worth investing in.

Soft and pretty linen filters light beautifully in this Brooklyn bedroom

Park Slope family room dripping with jasmine and a kaleidoscope of pretty petals to celebrate this special holiday of rebirth and renewal.

Inviting corner in the living room of our UES Townhouse project. Mohair sofa with silk velvet trim sitting on custom wool and silk rug with bespoke embroidered wool drapery.

This is Ireland. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Fresh flowers are a great way to activate energy in your home. Their organic beauty and natural scent are a magnet for chi. This year for Lunar New Year, I decided to fill my home with flowers. Had a lovely visit and left with my arms and senses full. Such a special shop. I have placed the flowers in spots where I want to attract attention. And it’s working.

Bless your space in your own way. Christening your space encourages you to eliminate the past and claim your home as uniquely yours. It also helps to align and harmonize you with your home. Whether you burn incense, throw confetti, crack, open, champagne, play music, and dance around, or sit in silence, it doesn’t matter. Paying particular attention to your front door and making sure it’s in great working order and attractive, will go a long way toward inviting positive energy into your home.

Treat your home like an archaeological site and dig deep. Excavate absolutely everything that no longer fits your life as it exists today. That will open space to attract new experiences, relationships, and opportunities. If a place is too full it creates stasis. In addition, clearing horizontal surfaces like table tops and counters allows the mind to rest, which creates a feeling of ease and relaxation. This is especially important for those who suffer from anxiety. CLEAR. Curious about your lucky colors and elements and how to use them?
