Having an eye for great interior design yet no clue on where to start or how to narrow down their aesthetic vision, a young family turned to Décor Aid to bring their drab pre-war Upper West Side apartment to life. With two young daughters in tow, our clients were looking for high style décor grounded in practicality and function – namely for their foyer, living room, dining room, and den.
Armed with a variety of inspiration from traditional to ultra-modern, they knew that they wanted their apartment’s interior design to look put together and thought through, but were short on a concise design direction.
In comes Décor Aid interior designer Gabrielle G. to revive their stark home with inspired design. After their initial in-home consultation, Gabrielle honed in on key decorative touchstones the couple had interest in and compiled a list of must-haves as an aesthetic foundation for the home.
Starting with fresh coats of pure white paint to liven up and brighten each room, Gabrielle took advantage of the apartments closed floor plan and gave each room it’s own design signature rather than having to ensure that everything flowed together – in turn, giving her more freedom.
Save for a china cabinet and formal dining table, Gabrielle was tasked with sourcing furnishings and accessories and went for clean simplicity as the couple also expressed that they’d like to have pieces that can move with them as their family grows while also being conducive for family life.
As you can see, the space is grounded with soothing neutrals so Gabrielle brought in pops of color and texture through accessories and abstract art for a sophisticated yet casual vibe.
The end result boasts concise design and pulled together everyday glamor for this modern family home that our clients adore, and so do we.

This project transformed an underutilized space beneath our clients' modern residence into a functional and luxurious lower-level addition featuring a light-filled guest suite and exercise room. A new stairwell, framed by custom steel railings, connects the main floor to the lower level, enhancing visual flow and natural lighting while complementing the home's modern aesthetic. Polished concrete floors with radiant heating provide year-round comfort while the guest suite, with a luxury en suite bathroom including a steam shower, can also function as a home office. Large articulating Nanawall doors open the exercise room to the exterior, including a sauna room, and the built-in beverage station allows for quick refreshments.
The project required innovative solutions to address structural constraints and property setbacks, including designing a code-compliant staircase within tight spatial limits, excavating a crawlspace to achieve full-height ceilings, and working around foundation walls to maximize usable space. By blending functionality, style, and attention to detail, this addition exceeded the clients' expectations, providing a cohesive, luxurious, and highly practical enhancement to their home.

Nestled in the heart of Denver's historic Park Hill neighborhood, Park Hill Haus is a complete luxury home renovation and interior design project that reimagines a 1946 residence into a refined yet deeply livable family retreat. Designed for two medical professionals seeking sanctuary from demanding careers, this full-scale transformation was guided by a vision of creating a home that feels elevated, peaceful, and effortlessly welcoming.
Every inch of the home was thoughtfully redesigned and renovated from top to bottom, with no detail overlooked. While the residence underwent a comprehensive modernization, great care was taken to preserve the character and architectural heritage that make Park Hill homes so beloved. The result is a seamless blend of old and new—a modern transitional home that honors its roots while embracing contemporary luxury living.
Inspired by the clients' love of international travel and iconic luxury fashion houses, the interiors draw subtle influence from the timeless sophistication of Chanel. Layered textures, restrained elegance, and carefully curated materials create a sense of understated luxury that feels both aspirational and approachable. Rather than designing a home that feels formal or untouchable, the goal was to create spaces that invite connection, comfort, and everyday enjoyment.
Throughout the home, a palette of warm neutrals and earthy tones establishes a calming foundation. Natural materials, rich textures, and globally inspired details reflect the clients' travels around the world, adding depth, personality, and a collected feel to each space. The design balances refinement with warmth, creating an environment that feels luxurious without ever feeling cold.
Family-centered living was at the heart of every design decision. Gathering spaces were thoughtfully planned to support both intimate moments and effortless entertaining, while private areas provide a serene retreat for rest and restoration. The home's atmosphere evokes the feeling of a boutique luxury hotel layered with the comfort and authenticity of a well-loved family home.
Park Hill Haus stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful luxury interior design—where heritage architecture, modern functionality, and worldly inspiration come together to create a home that is timeless, inviting, and uniquely personal.

Bathroom in Trailside View | Refined Transitional Home in Scottsdale, AZ |
Room Type: Whole Home Remodel and Furnishings |
Project Name: Trailside View Residence |
Key Feature: A full home remodel and furnishings project anchored by white oak cabinetry and countertops, where the clients gave Living with Lolo real creative freedom to play with bold fabrics, wallpapers, and drapery that most homeowners would talk themselves out of.
Challenge: Transitional design can play it safe by default, neutral palette, inoffensive finishes, nothing that makes you catch your breath. The remodel needed a strong foundation that felt refined and timeless, but the clients wanted more than that. They wanted a home with personality, and the challenge was channeling that creative openness into something cohesive rather than chaotic.
Solution: Living with Lolo used white oak cabinetry and countertops to ground the remodel in warmth and quiet sophistication, then let the soft goods carry the personality. Bold fabric choices, expressive wallpapers, and thoughtful drapery gave each room its own moment without losing the thread that connected the whole home. Because the remodel and furnishings were managed together under one roof, the bolder design choices landed the way they were intended to rather than feeling like afterthoughts layered onto a finished renovation.
Materials: White oak cabinetry, white oak countertops, curated wallpapers, bold upholstery fabrics, custom drapery, and layered accessories sourced through Living with Lolo's trade relationships.
Budget: $250,000 to $550,000 |
Timeline: Approximately 5 to 9 months from design through completion.

This house was designed to maintain clean sustainability and durability. Minimal, simple, modern design techniques were implemented to create an open floor plan with natural light. The entry of the home, clad in wood, was created as a transitional space between the exterior and the living spaces by creating a feeling of compression before entering into the voluminous, light filled, living area. The large volume, tall windows and natural light of the living area allows for light and views to the exterior in all directions. This project also considered our clients' need for storage and love for travel by creating storage space for an Airstream camper in the oversized 2 car garage at the back of the property. As in all of our homes, we designed and built this project with increased energy efficiency standards in mind. Our standards begin below grade by designing our foundations with insulated concrete forms (ICF) for all of our exterior foundation walls, providing the below grade walls with an R value of 23. As a standard, we also install a passive radon system and a heat recovery ventilator to efficiently mitigate the indoor air quality within all of the homes we build.

This Hendersonville living space was designed to feel polished, welcoming, and effortlessly livable, with a strong balance of classic forms and fresh color. A curved sectional anchors the room and encourages conversation while taking full advantage of the soaring ceiling and dramatic arched windows overlooking the water. Layered neutrals create a calm, timeless foundation, while the client’s love of red and blue is expressed through bold accent pillows, artwork, and accessories that bring energy and personality to the space. Art Deco influences show up in the sculptural lighting, curved silhouettes, and graphic patterns, adding a subtle sense of glamour without feeling overdone. Custom drapery frames the windows, and a deep blue fireplace surround serves as a striking focal point, resulting in a refined yet comfortable great room designed for both everyday living and entertaining.

This formal dining room was in desperate need of an overall design plan. Our client wanted something unique and special. A round live edge dining table with a custom designed metal base was the foundation of the design. We were able to show our client the 3D concept renderings which enabled them to see the full vision of the room…sparking their love for the overall design. Beautiful gold upholstered chairs with acrylic legs surround the dining table. Acrylic accents continue in the drapery hardware, chandelier and buffet lamps to provide a soft modern feel. Original custom art pieces are the finishing touches for this luxurious space. This sleek formal dining room was photographed by Michael Hunter Photography

This client wanted to turn his large, sloped backyard garden bed into a perennial meadow filled with lush grasses, herbaceous perennials, and foundation shrubs. We designed the garden to hold the viewer’s senses in balance between structure and movement. After the initial rip-out, we added strategically placed foundation shrubs, including hydrangea, cypress, and euonymus, to hold the form of the garden in place and to give a sense of stability and weight. Then we painted the hillside with drifts of perennial grasses, astilbe, veronica, and geum, weaving one into the next for a feeling of natural, effortless flow.

Honoring the past while designing for modern living. This kitchen transformation proves that a space can feel completely updated while preserving the sentimental pieces that make a house a home.
Built around the original marble flooring selected by the client’s late father and the mid-century glass pendant chosen by her late mother, the new design seamlessly blends family legacy with contemporary luxury.
Key Design Updates:
Sentimental Elements: The original warm marble floors and vintage dining pendant remain as foundational focal points.
Custom Two-Tone Cabinetry: Crisp off-white perimeter cabinets brighten the room, anchored by a rich walnut wood island.
Modern High-End Upgrades: Integrated Sub-Zero refrigeration, double wall ovens, and an under-counter beverage station cater to everyday living and effortless entertaining.
Warm, Cohesive Finishes: Champagne brass hardware, a sculptural island chandelier, and a muted green tile backsplash connect the new updates to the warm tones of the preserved heirlooms.
The result is a bright, functional, and deeply personal space designed to be enjoyed for generations to come.

This family had outgrown their home. They needed a larger kitchen with more seating that opened up to the rest of the living space, a proper mudroom and laundry area, and a true master suite with a bedroom, walk-in closet, and bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower. They also wanted a custom bar.
Because the house sat on a slab, HTZ planned the layout carefully. On a slab foundation, the placement of each space directly affects the cost of plumbing, electrical, and other trades, so we designed with both function and the clients' budget in mind. We removed a load-bearing wall to create an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area. The existing two-car garage became a mudroom, laundry room, and custom bar, while the single-car garage and old laundry room were converted into the new master suite. To replace the lost parking, we added a new two-car garage to the home.
The finishes bring it all together. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout, creating a seamless flow between spaces. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a matching quartz backsplash, and a custom spice shelf above the large range. The bar also has quartz countertops. In the master bath, large-format tile lines the spacious custom walk-in shower. We also raised the master suite floor to match the rest of the home, eliminating steps and transitions so the clients can comfortably age in place.
The result is a home that fits how this family lives now and will continue to serve them for years to come.
