This sprawling estate is an incredible sight see! Soaring coffered ceilings with gorgeous winding staircases set the stage for a grand entry. We took advantage of the classical elements of this home and built our design (at the request of our amazing clients) with a heavy nod to european traditional style. Decadent silk fabrics paired with amazingly rich wall treatments bring a luxurious feeling to every room. Heavily carved details are found on an eclectic mix of furnishings throughout the home. We incorporated some of the clients pieces from their years of collecting and traveling. Their favorite rolled arm sofa is given new life in the library once reupholstered in a cozy woven chenille. After completing the interior, it was time to get started on the grounds! We were so excited to design the exterior entertaining space which includes an outdoor kitchen, living and dining areas, pergola, bath and pool. One of our favorites for sure.

This fireplace mantle and accent band provide a simple but commanding presence that is noticed immediately when one enters the home. Client loves to change the display on the accent band with art, seasonal elements, strings of lights, special hand crafts, or notes and images, and appreciates the clean modern styling with the industrial edge. They particularly love sitting in the swivel chairs close to the fireplace for a cozy tête-à-tête or swiveling to watch TV or visit with others in the room. Aaron Dougherty Photography

When the homeowner purchased this classic colonial house in Ridgewood, NJ, she had to undo the country kitchen that the previous owner built. Seeing the potential in the space and abundance of natural light, she set out to open up the footprint of the kitchen by enclosing a small screen porch, eliminating the unnecessary walls, to create a kitchen with both a breakfast area and sitting (“coffee drinking”) area.

New extra-long lumbar pillows not only solved for overly deep sofas, but lend a sleek and sophisticated look to the primary family gathering place. New Couture fabrics, rich in texture, selected for the lounge and accent chair pillows complete the “mini-improvement” that dramatically refreshes the room.

For a bachelor with three bedrooms, a home gym seemed like a great idea. With room left for a sofa sleeper, this bedroom now also hosts plenty of equipment and appropriate mats. A great art piece and television keep the visitor occupied while working out or just for relaxing. Photography by Erika Bierman

For this project, the client was moving into a smaller upscale apartment building and needed a tranquil space for relaxing and entertaining. We used neutral tones throughout the apartment with pops of bold jewel tones in accessories, decor and bedding. Modern artwork pulls together the room. The transitional feel of the room has traditional elements with modern appeal. The living room upholstery is from Bassett Furniture and has lush texture in chenille and velvet that adds depth to the pieces. The upholstered beds soften the room and contrast the modern storage pieces. Because the space is open, we kept the light and airy feeling with sheer linen drapery panels that match throughout for a subtle touch.

The existing cabinets were replaced with new white Showplace EVO cabinetry in an Edgewater door style. A long narrow island was designed into the kitchen to increase prep and storage space. The cabinets were topped with Silestone Blanco Orion Quartz countertops and complemented with a Daltile Minute Mosaix™ tile backsplash in a Chenille White herringbone. Creating a natural flow between the rooms, Riverside laid CoreTec Bastion Elm luxury vinyl flooring. Finally, black hardware, new appliances, and contemporary glass pendants round out this incredible kitchen transformation.

Limoges is a comfortable, hearty accent chair that makes a bold and updated reference to mid-century modern design. Strong, square lines are softened by curved shelter arms upholstered in plush chenille fabric, all a top espresso finished wood legs. While understated, Limoges creates a design presence that cannot be missed. Works great as a set of two or pairs beautifully with the Limoges sofa.

This wonderful client returned to us for her living room remodel with the goal of transforming the space into a comfortable, stylish area for lounging and entertaining. The focal point of the room, the fireplace, became an ode to the client's father. At the time of the project’s start, he had recently passed away. Our client’s father had always believed that the space needed a fireplace, and this was a special implementation that we could make to honor that. Aside from creating an inviting and warm fireplace corner, the other goals of the project included a strategic working of aesthetic and form. As a first move, we removed a long wall at the entry of the space. This immediately created a more open and welcoming entry off the front door. Subtle division was still established here by integrating a new sofa and sofa back table. Another goal was to carry the luxe transitional feeling that we had previously developed in her upstairs bathroom renovation a few years prior down into the other public spaces of the home. On the fireplace, chenille white stacked stone was installed and paired with a custom wood mantle. Throughout the space, layers of texture, pattern and finishes were utilized to create a dynamic and elegant completion. We combined metal, wood, marble, limestone, chunky fabric knits, soft chenille, mother of pearl and rattan for a complex aesthetic language that is diverse and beautiful. As part of our final touches, we worked to brighten and lighten the space. We updated window coverings and installed new can lighting in the dining room and kitchen areas. The hardwood floors were refinished and paint was updated throughout. We also completed the space with seating appropriate for entertaining in a smaller space. For example, accent chairs in this room also function as dining chairs for the head of the table. It feels so fitting to have something that brings warmth into a space tied to our client's memory of their father and we are so honored to have had a part in creating something in honor of him.

this art deco inspired family room sits open to the grand kitchen and offers abundant seating starting with this custom 10 foot sofa covered in camel colored chenille. accent walls in pale blue grasscloth and camel color grasscloth offer modern color blocking. a camel stria wool rug anchors the long sofa and across from it, the matching pale blue slope arm mohair velvet chairs.

n the Great room, the main focal point are the fireplace and the window. To provide a balance in the room, we selected an oversized sofa for the room and covered it in a Ralph Lauren plaid cashmere fabric. As the family has small children, we chose an oversized ottoman covered in a leather, over a coffee table. There are no sharp edges for a child to hurt themselves on and they climb all over it. On either side of fireplace are a pair of windows and we flanked them with a pair of side panels in a gold chenille fabric, under which we placed a pair of toy chests painted and distressed to work with the room. The most important element when designing a room is providing as much storage as possible. Now the children can also play in this beautiful room and their toys have a home.
