Home Office Makeover:

My client’s home office looked nice, but she wanted to elevate it further. We chose dark, rich, earthy green walls. To add interest, we designed a focal wall with picture frame molding and a fun geometric wallpaper inside the frames – this became the main feature, eliminating the need for any wall décor.

A new light fixture, window curtains, and a cozy reading nook completed the look.

While the original desk was nice, my client wanted the functionality of a standing desk, so we replaced it. The highlight of the project, however, was the credenza. My client – who had never painted before – got inspired to repurpose it with chalk paint. The piece was the perfect size and provided storage, but its original color didn’t fit the new decor. She did an incredible job transforming it, and now it looks amazing in the room!!

Family room makeover:

This room was a blank canvas when my client hired me to design her family room. She wanted a warm, cozy, light and airy space - and that's exactly what we have achieved.

Given the large size of the room, selecting the right scale of furniture and thoughtful space planning were key. We created a central conversational area and added a cozy reading nook by the window. Layering different textures and materials brought depth to the monochromatic palette, while earthy tones made the space feel warm and inviting.

Biophillic design is currently trending, and I think this room captures the essence of nature-inspired look. My client loves her new room!

Dining room and Foyer makeover:

My client recently moved into a new home and wanted the space to reflect their personality. We chose a rich, dark gray for the walls, instantly adding depth and sophistication. Picture frame molding adds a timeless touch, blending beautifully with both traditional and contemporary styles.

To balance the dark walls, we incorporated a light wood dining table, soft window drapes, and curated wall art, keeping the overall palette monochromatic. We broke away from the rule book with an oversized chandelier that makes a bold statement in the room.

Subtle updates in the foyer using similar design elements create a cohesive flow between the spaces, making the home feel warm and inviting.
