This is another favorite home redesign project. Throughout my career, I've worked with some hefty budgets on a number of high-end projects. You can visit Paris Kitchens and Somerset Kitchens, companies that I have worked for previously, to get an idea of what I mean. I could start name dropping here, but I won’t, because that's not what this project is about. This project is about a small budget and a happy homeowner. This was one of the first projects with a custom interior design at a fraction of a regular budget. I could use the term “value engineering” to describe it, because this particular interior was heavily value engineered. The result: a sophisticated interior that looks so much more expensive than it is. And one ecstatic homeowner. Mission impossible accomplished. ​ P.S. Don’t ask me how much it cost, I promised the homeowner that their impressive budget will remain confidential. In any case, no one would believe me even if I spilled the beans.

Ah, the bedroom! With our tight budget, we opted to keep the original berber carpet and add an area rug. We ordered the chartreuse velvet bed from Interior Define. The coverlet is from Urban Outfitters. The side tables and curtains were sourced from Anthropologie, the reading lights were from West Elm. The Blu Dot dresser was our splurge in this room. We framed our client's artwork using frame remnants and wood scraps. The weavings were collected by the client on her travels, African sculpture on loan from her parents.
