Earlier this week I hopped in the car and crossed town to get a special sneak peek at the new Serena & Lily Palisades Village store before it officially opens this weekend! I’ve loved following the company from their early days offering bedding and wallpaper to the soup-to-nuts home decor brand. They’ve managed to succeed […]
I’m writing this post amidst a pile of luggage and rejected outfit options as I prepare to head to High Point Market in North Carolina tomorrow! High Point is the one of interiors industry’s largest trade shows, and is definitely one of the highlights of the year! Although I’ve been several times before, I have […]
One of the trickiest aspects of my living room makeover for Kim of Eat Sleep Wear was the fact that the space itself was essentially one big room—yet we needed it to serve multiple functions. In order to carve a sitting area, dining room, two entryways, and a storage vignette from relatively blank architectural envelope, […]
One of my favorite categories of interior design is restaurant design. Not only do the functional aspects of the space have to be spot on, but designers tend to take more risks, pushing the envelope to make a serious visual statement. Especially in the age of Instagram, a striking restaurant design has become a marketing […]
Hello, and happy Friday, everyone! It’s been a heavy week, hasn’t it? I’ve been doing my best to keep up with daily life, while also staying present to current events—and supporting friends who are feeling particularly effected by them. And while I certainly don’t advocate burying ones head in work, I do feel grateful for […]
It’s here! At long last, I can share the final result of the living and dining room makeover I did for Kim of Eat Sleep Wear! The whole reveal went up on MyDomaine over the weekend, and seeing it all encapsulated there made me realize how epic it truly was! Head on over to see all […]
Remember the modern powder room design that Caroline and I recently began for a client? Well, I figured it’s time for an update, since it’s humming along quite nicely! Last week we presented three design options to the client, and while we liked all of them, let’s just say there was one that we really hoped […]
Although most of my thoughts about Instagram lately involve expletives (that darned algorithm!) I am a big fan of the bookmarked posts feature—especially since the instituted the ability to categorize by folders. I have a decor inspiration folder to which I save posts constantly, and I love being able not only to go back and […]
Without a doubt, the most important factor that influences how I feel in a space is the light. One look at my photographic and design style reveals the extent to which abundant, clean, crisp light is integral to my psyche! The bungalow that Ivan and I first shared together had small windows and was surrounded […]
There’s no question that tile is having a moment. From standout encaustic patterns to playful terrazo colorways, tile is trending in a major way! I’m loving all the creative installs I’m noticing for tile, everything from forward-thinking kitchen and bath applications to fireplace surrounds, patios, and floor-to-ceiling statements! Designers are stretching themselves in new directions […]
I generally do a pretty good job of keeping clutter at bay in our house. With only 900 square feet, I have to or things can easily get out of hand! Yet try as I might, I find it impossible to keep my ceramics addiction at bay. I’ve always had a thing for pots, vases, […]
Today I placed an order for 52 wallpaper swatches, which is definitely a record for me! The reason? Caroline and I just took on a new client project, a super fun powder room renovation that is going to look fantastic when it’s complete! I’ll share some overall inspiration for the design soon, but I wanted to […]
