76th Street Residence

What makes every project unique is the clients, their personal preferences, the existing conditions and the team. This project started out as a tough interivew, where initially, I failed to impress but was called upon eventually and we made magic happen. The cleints had beautiful things from a life well travelled and collected, some vintage antiques, art and treasured heirlooms. I wanted to create a space for them that felt modern and updated and celebrated their life. Photography by Daniel Wang

The living room in this apartment is such a huge transformation. It went from dated and yellow to modern and light. Paint is the biggest contributing factor here. I painted the walls, ceiling and the trim the same color. The amount of natural light in the space creates a multitude of shadows and...

The challenge here was also to create a design that could incorporate the existing collection of antiques including the vintage secretary, grandfather clock and art. In this view, I am showing how the living room is the central room in this open concept home and leads to other spaces. The entry...

We kept the existing dining table because it was the perfect size for the room and expensive. I got new chairs that have clean lines and textured upholstery. Added some sconces to give purpose to the walls and voila… fresh, modern and collected.
