St. Michael's house
Coastal Estate in St. Michael's Maryland on the Chesapeake Bay. House was designed after the original 1770's house on the property. Home was designed to be a formal house but was now being used as a weekend retreat. Ann Kenkel had to decorate the house in a manner which was coastal enough so owner's felt like they were on vacation yet formal enough for the style of the house.
AK found the house filled with wallpaper from the 1980's. Wallpaper from every room was removed and all trim had to be painted a neutral color.
The formal dining room only had one entry. AK opened up a second entry into the dining room which provided a view of the Chesapeake Bay.

Complete gut of Watergate Penthouse and renovation. Ann Kenkel gutted a very contemporary Penthouse which had no molding and concrete floors. Installed Walnut flooring redesigned space,designed all built ins,and decorated PH. Space was for a middle aged bachelor who wanted the spaces to have multi function. He wanted the Living Room to function as a library as well as a formal living room. I designed very elegant walnut bookcases with built in sound speakers. The furniture is comfortable yet upholstered in elegant fabrics. The coffee table was a high end custom Minton Spidell coffee table which elevates the space to a more formal look. The entry hall showcases a very fine antique mirror over a console with fine inlaid banding. The living room has rich chenille fabrics,ultra suede pillows with trim and a tapestry chenille on the chairs. Kenkel designed a white wood mantle deep enough that weighty accessories. There needed to be greater division between the living room and dining. AK designed an open etagere to contain large crystal pieces with beautiful lighting. It created enough of a screen to provide some privacy between the rooms in addition to making both rooms appear longer. The dining room needed to serve as a home office with a computer station and two comfortable chairs for the client to hold a business meeting. I also needed to function as a dining room. AK designed a built in unit which housed glass shelf cabinets on either side of an open space. The open space had a counter which was appropriate height for a computer as well as a a serving service at dinner time. Office equipment,printer fax,router was all housed in a lower cabinet. The pendant chandelier is a very fine antique french piece. AK designed a built in unit for clothes,a flat screen tv and speakers. There was a large roof top patio which had beautiful views of the Washington Monument. AK created a thorough design for extensive entertaining ,in her 3d drafting program. The client moved before the patio could be built out. Draperies are made out of Jim Thompson raw silk.

Step into an inviting tapestry of texture and tone in this Tribeca, New York living room, expertly styled by Arsight Studio. Artfully arranged accessories find a home in the custom bookcase, juxtaposed with the smooth lines of a Scandinavian armchair and sofa. The luxury rug beneath introduces a warm contrast to the cool elegance of the marble fireplace. The space, lit by pendant lights, reflects off a strategically placed mirror, enhancing the living room crown and center table. Adding depth is a thought-provoking mental art piece, with the room's serene plasterwork softened by the gentle presence of an olive tree.

The original vaulted-ceiling family room was thoughtfully preserved as the intimate heart of this luxury great room, naturally defining a comfortable seating arrangement centered on the fireplace and television. Beyond the conversation area, a vintage Italian game table creates an elegant destination for entertaining and family gatherings. Surrounded by bespoke chairs upholstered in rich leather and fine tapestry fabric, the game table adds European character, artisanal craftsmanship, and timeless sophistication. Carefully positioned behind one of the custom sofas, this inviting vignette seamlessly blends heritage furnishings with modern luxury, creating a warm, functional space designed for relaxation, conversation, and memorable entertaining.

For two years, these homeowners lived in Paris—surrounded by sidewalk cafes, fashion boutiques, and world-class cuisine. They fell in love with city living, which is why upon their move back to the Twin Cities they purchased a downtown condo. LiLu Interiors enhanced the 4,000 square feet of contemporary architecture by weaving together an eclectic tapestry of timeless heirloom pieces with fashionable finishes. A seamless contrast of textures, wood grain, glossy sheen, plaster, and metallic meet you at the front door. Pops of color and the incorporation of more traditional furniture pieces provide a subtle nod to those special years lived across the ocean

Timeless Elegance with a Vintage Touch
This charming vignette combines classic elegance with rustic warmth. A rich wooden cabinet with arched glass doors provides both storage and display, set against a stunning tapestry-style wallpaper that evokes an old-world European aesthetic. Thoughtfully curated decor, including a textured vase with dried hydrangeas, vintage candleholders, and woven accents, adds layers of warmth and character. A wall-mounted wicker sconce enhances the organic feel, while a muted color palette of earthy browns, soft blues, and natural textures creates a serene and sophisticated atmosphere.

Embracing the challenge of grounding this open, light-filled space, our Aspen studio focused on comfort, ease, and high design. The built-in lounge is flanked by storage cabinets for puzzles and games for this client who loves having people over. The high-back Living Divani sofa is paired with U-Turn Benson chairs and a "Rabari" rug from Nanimarquina for casual gatherings. The throw pillows are a perfect mix of Norwegian tapestry fabric and contemporary patterns. In the child's bedroom, we added an organically shaped Vitra Living Tower, which also provides a cozy reading niche. Bold Marimekko fabric colorfully complements more traditional detailing and creates a contrast between old and new. We loved collaborating with our client on an eclectic bedroom, where everything is collected and combined in a way that allows distinctive pieces to work together. A custom walnut bed supports the owner's tatami mattress. Vintage rugs ground the space and pair well with a vintage Scandinavian chair and dresser.
Combining unexpected objects is one of our favorite ways to add liveliness and personality to a space. In the little guest bedroom, our client (a creative and passionate collector) was the inspiration behind an energetic and eclectic mix. Similarly, turning one of our client's favorite old sweaters into pillow covers and popping a Native American rug on the wall helped pull the space together. Slightly eclectic and invitingly cozy, the twin guestroom beckons for settling in to read, nap or daydream. A vintage poster from Omnibus Gallery in Aspen and an antique nightstand add period whimsy.

Study/Family Room-the Butler Is In
This stunning reading nook/family room is a room that I knew would be getting a lot of use from the entire family. The wonderful acanthus leaf columns were also original to the home with the color and luster that only time could create. I knew I needed to incorporate fabrics that would take the use. On the settee in the study, I used a fabulous patterned tapestry to compliment the settee I used in the entry area. Accents of vintage pillows were used as well. Gothic style was present in the iron work, built in bookcase and stained glass so I designed a custom wall mounted cabinet to reflect the shape of the iron on the staircase to showcase the owners pewter stein collection.. Ironically, the original peacock design in the iron work is linked back to Houston. In doing my research when I was designing their ranch, I hired a company in Houston to manufacture gates for the ranch and discovered they had deigned the iron work with the peacock when this historic house was built. The company does work for the Ima Hogg Mansion in Houston as well.
The original slate floors also sparked my interest! I had them cleaned and preserved to bring out the beautiful hues that slate reflects. If only the floors could talk I know I would listen.
