From the beginning, I envisioned creating a clean, white palette for the overall look of the apartment, but I also wanted to create some beautiful, unexpected surprises through blocks of color. On the master bedroom wall behind the bed, I installed a vibrant turquoise green silk wallpaper. The color evokes the green waters of la Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta (Spanish for Large Marsh of Santa Marta) in Colombia, where the black and white Leo Matíz photograph “Pavo Real del Mar” hanging over the bed was taken more than 60 years ago. I saw a smaller version of the photograph for the first time in a gallery in Chelsea, NY. Photography by Diego Alejandro Design, LLC

In the shared kids’ bedroom, colorful accents from IKEA and Serena & Lily add a touch of whimsey. Framed Hermès scarves above the children’s beds double as graphic artwork.

This coastal bedroom design is centered around a large blue abstract seascape painting that creates an immediate focal point and sets a calm, elevated tone for the entire space. The original artwork features soft horizon lines and layered ocean-inspired blues, bringing a serene, beach-house feel into the room. Its wide, horizontal scale makes it ideal for placement over a bed, helping to visually anchor the space while adding depth and openness. Framed in natural wood, the painting introduces warmth and texture, balancing the cool blue palette and giving the piece a finished, designer-quality presence. The artwork is intentionally the hero of the room—everything else is styled to support its impact. This piece is highly versatile and works beautifully in coastal, modern, transitional, and minimalist interiors. Whether used in a primary bedroom, guest room, or vacation home, it delivers a refined, calming aesthetic that resonates with today’s most sought-after home design trends. Key Features: Large horizontal abstract seascape painting Soft blue and neutral color palette Ideal artwork for over bed or sofa placement Natural wood frame for warmth and contrast One-of-a-kind original artwork Creates a calm, coastal atmosphere Perfect For: Coastal homes, beach houses, primary bedrooms, guest bedrooms, interior designers, and homeowners looking for statement wall art that elevates a space.

a large happy room, shared by two girls, ages five and seven. The room is painted in Benjamin Moore Lavender Mist. The beds, rug and nightstands are from Land Of Nod. and the artwork was made by the girls themselves.

My clients had outgrown their builder’s basic home and had plenty of room to expand on their 10 acres. Working with a local architect and a talented contractor, we designed an addition to create 3 new bedrooms, a bathroom scaled for all 3 girls, a playroom and a master retreat including 3 fireplaces, sauna, steam shower, office or “creative room”, and large bedroom with folding glass wall to capitalize on their view. The master suite, gym, pool and tennis courts are still under construction, but the girls’ suite and living room space are complete and dust free. Each child’s room was designed around their preference of color scheme and each girl has a unique feature that makes their room truly their own. The oldest daughter has a secret passage hidden behind what looks like built in cabinetry. The youngest daughter wanted to “swing”, so we outfitted her with a hanging bed set in front of a custom mural created by a Spanish artist. The middle daughter is an elite gymnast, so we added monkey bars so she can cruise her room in style. The girls’ bathroom suite has 3 identical “stations” with abundant storage. Cabinetry in black walnut and peacock blue and white quartz counters with white marble backsplash are durable and beautiful. Two shower stalls, designed with a colorful and intricate tile design, prevent bathroom wait times and a custom wall mural brings a little of the outdoors in.
