Built in 1912 for Colonel and Mrs. Robert Leaming Montgomery, this iconic building is a pure study in elegant early 20th century design expressing dynamic social history. As it was never restored or refurbished, it is the last great Main Line Estate, a veritable time capsule. The mastermind behind the comprehensive restoration was… - [Cairncliff](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cairncliff-pj-vj~7838424) - Location: Bryn Athyn, PA - Photos: 19 - Description: A rare, c. 1962 midcentury modern masterpiece by famed architect Richard Neutra called for a perceptive and respectful approach. The house was completely intact and, until now, had only ever been occupied by its original owner, a celebrated pioneer of underwater cinematography. Set on 10 acres in a heavily wooded ravine adjacent to a bucolic 800-acre nature preserve, this serene house retains its original architectural fiber, so we preserved the original elements while upgrading mechanical syste… - [Furness Mansion](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/furness-mansion-pj-vj~7838433) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 13 - Description: Frank Furness was one of Philadelphia’s most important, prolific, and controversial architects of the Gilded Age. The Jayne House has an intriguing and idiosyncratic terracotta façade that immediately expresses the unique power and vision of the architect. The current owners wanted to adapt the interiors for 21st-century living without losing the historical character of this masterpiece, but the design and integrity of this once-great townhouse were almost completely obliterated in successive re… - [Big Sky Chalet](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/big-sky-chalet-pj-vj~7846438) - Location: Big Sky, MT - Photos: 29 - Description: Montana boasts some of the most majestic and rugged terrain in the country, so this stunning 18,000 square foot home demanded an approach that complemented the magnificent site. Hand cleft stone and roughhewn timber architecture inspired us to define the sensibility of the bold, modern interiors with a rustic elegance. It became the perfect reflection of an adventurous family who embrace outdoor living and value authentic connection to the land and to each other. With a luxurious spin on Western… - [Central Park Collector](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/central-park-collector-pj-vj~7846459) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 14 - Description: As a pied-a-terre for a couple with a notable contemporary art collection, a comprehensive reimagining was required to transform the dated, inward-looking interior into a modern, art-focused classic. We gutted the interiors of the apartment in the undistinguished 1980s building and created a spirited ambiance through layering, focus, harmony, camouflage, scale, and visual seduction. Distinctive new millwork created crisp framing lines and suddenly allowed the millwork to advance as the charcoal… - [Townhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/townhouse-pj-vj~191220) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 15 - Description: The façade of this once dignified mid-19th century historic structure in Philadelphia was all that was salvageable after suffering years of neglect and dubious “renovations.” Our clients, a couple with two young children, fell in love with it despite its disrepair and decided to fully gut the interiors. At only 19 feet wide but 80 feet deep and with windows situated only at the ends, getting natural daylight into the five-story townhouse would be a challenge. Yet it was the perfect opportunity f… - [Manhattan Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/manhattan-apartment-pj-vj~2737531) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 12 - Description: In an elegant pre-war building, the raw shell of a 1,400 square foot apartment was transformed into a sumptuous yet cozy pied-à-terre for a classically inspired couple who loves to entertain. We infused this modest two-bedroom apartment with robust decorative elements that more closely correspond to the building’s stately architecture. We collaborated with architect Richard Cameron of Atelier & Co. to incorporate elements such as pilasters and acanthus leaf plaster moldings to complement the spl… - [Fluent French](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fluent-french-pj-vj~7847449) - Location: Bryn Mawr, PA - Photos: 10 - Description: A 1930s Georgian house was expanded and reimagined as a fitting backdrop for an exemplary collection of French Art Deco furniture and art. After many years of building an important collection of Americana, our clients prepared for a radical change to herald a new phase in their lives with a transformation exploding with creative energy. We reworked the architectural ornament into expressive Art Deco detailing both sinuous and geometric, with elegant plaster moldings in forms ranging from sweepin… - [Contemporary Elegance](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-elegance-pj-vj~1627730) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 12 - Description: This new high-rise residence was just a blank drywall box when our clients approached us, but it did have magnificent 360-degree views and floor-to-ceiling windows. Clearly, the cityscape would remain an integral component of the apartment’s aesthetic. The layout was expansively redesigned to yield additional space for a wine cellar, wet bar, intimate dining for two, a study, and generous master dressing rooms. To give each space a distinctive personality, we worked with unexpected textures, evo… - [Shingle-Style Beach House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shingle-style-beach-house-pj-vj~7847590) - Location: Longport, NJ - Photos: 17 - Description: Enjoying a unique location on the Atlantic coastline, this new Shingle Style house embraces sand, sky, beach, and breeze. With spectacular unobstructed views north, east, and south, this carefree family home brings the outdoors inside at every opportunity. The crisp painted paneling, custom millwork, and handmade lighting fixtures enhance the craftsmanship long associated with this appealing vernacular architectural style. We worked with numerous local artists to create unique glazed tiles throu… - [Classical Jewel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classical-jewel-pj-vj~7848102) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 7 - Description: Our challenge was to create an elegant and sophisticated environment within a very small space for a museum quality collection of decorative arts and classical antiquities. The serene guest suite, built within a high-rise condominium, was designed to complement the client’s own penthouse located several floors above, making it feel like an extension of the home – a veritable urban guest house. With timeless elegance and appealing sophistication, the palette and materials set the stage for this b… - [Oceanfront Reimagined](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/oceanfront-reimagined-pj-vj~1088377) - Location: Longport, NJ - Photos: 10 - Description: After a devastating hurricane destroyed much of this 1980’s house located on the very tip of Absecon Island, the structure was redesigned to maximize both protection from the elements and open vistas of the sea. This was achieved by enlarging openings with storm proof doors that fold back completely to allow true indoor/outdoor living. We created a sensitive balance between maximizing the views and ensuring privacy. Another critical balance was achieved by using materials that appear luxurious b… - [College of Physicians](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/college-of-physicians-pj-vj~7848118) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 9 - Description: Founded in 1787, the College of Physicians of Philadelphia has an enlightened mission to advance the cause of health while upholding the ideals and heritage of medicine. Its Historical Medical Library was Philadelphia’s central medical library for over 150 years and today is one of the world’s premier research collections in the history of medicine. The College’s collection of early printed books includes more than four hundred incunabula (editions printed before 1501), and their extensive archi… - [1830 Rittenhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/1830-rittenhouse-pj-vj~7848147) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Rooftop Entertaining](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rooftop-entertaining-pj-vj~1083985) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Cheswold Carriage House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cheswold-carriage-house-pj-vj~1108134) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 35 - [Victorian Heirloom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/victorian-heirloom-pj-vj~191422) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Villanova Transformation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/villanova-transformation-pj-vj~192015) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Naturalists' Sanctuary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/naturalists-sanctuary-pj-vj~191273) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Manhattan Penthouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/manhattan-penthouse-pj-vj~191135) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 [See all 39 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/eberlein-design-consultants-ltd-pfvwus-pf~688167199) ## Frequently Asked Questions **What types of interior design projects do you specialize in (full-home, single room, remodel support)?** We specialize in a wide range of projects, from full-service luxury interior design for grand historic estates and intimate urban residences to specific room designs like living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms.
