Serene, peaceful, calm and relaxing are the words that come to mind in this master bedroom suite. In a master bedroom like this, you can't wait to come home and retreat to your personal spa bedroom to escape from the rest of the world. One wall is covered with beautiful pinch-pleated drapery panels with attached pinch-pleated sculpted valances, trimmed in elegant fringe. By covering the entire wall with drapery panels the windows appear to cover the entire wall when the draperies are open. The room is adorned with regal tall bedside lamps, perfect for relaxing in bed and reading a good book. The graceful lines of the bedroom are further enhanced by the grandeur of the walnut-stained sleigh-bed. A soft and comfy reading chair and floor lamp are so inviting.

The custom pink velvet curtains with fringe really set off the room. We used this same pink velvet for the love seat cushion and lamp shade. This dreamy dressing room is all glamour with pink velvet, soft blues, lavender, and cream. The wall to wall closet pieces create ample storage for shoes, intimates, accessories, and hanging clothes. The love seat was built over the stairwell making fantastic use of space and a fun cozy feature for the room. A re-purposed wicker desk makes the perfect vanity. A wall hung jewelry cabinet stores jewelry. A little side stand with drawers adds extra storage. And naturally we needed a free standing floor mirror. The attached balcony is the perfect place for morning coffee and matching throw pillows tie in with the custom cushions and pillows on the love seat. The combination of colors and textures were designed to have a beachy-boho-glam style. The results? Dreamy!!!

Design by Elizabeth Strianese, photography by Thomas Moore, Beacon NY This project needed to build a bridge between a classic NYC 1960's style building, and the family's desire for traditional details. Together we created a warm, family friendly home that is an eclectic mix of styles - while imparting strong classic overtones. We built a collection of good pieces that they can take with them from home to home as their family grows.

This client was so much fun to design for. Their project was all about color, texture and creating a master bedroom and guest bedroom that compliments their passion for traveling and eclectic style. We created a seating area in the master bedroom where the family can gather at night to read and spend time quality time. Their desire for deep color and bold pattern allowed us to create a casual space that is both warm and inviting at the end of a long day. Guests often visit and stay for a bit. They wanted to give their family and friends the same cozy feel in their guest bedroom. We were able to use a combination of patterns, textures and colors with our custom-made bedding and pillows. We also love to repurpose where we can and painted furniture is a great place to start. The depth of color used here is a true reflection of our clients' warm and friendly personality that says "welcome to our home."

A city home for a professional couple was transformed from a tired brownstone to a chic, urban escape. As in many small spaces, this room had to function in a variety of ways. As a hallway this space is passed through to enter the home. It serves as a home office with a built-in desk (in niche), as well as a cozy space to watch TV. Hallway circulation was maintained with a shallow, L-shaped sofa and a pair of small sculptural stools rather than a larger cocktail table. The wall behind the sofa was upholstered with rich, grey ultra-suede. No artwork required here as the patterns made by brushing the suede tell a daily story. An upholstered desk chair can easily turn to face the sofa for additional seating. A cow hide rug, found by the homeowner while traveling, compliments the room perfectly. Photo: Darren Pellegrino

Home office - traditional home office idea in Philadelphia

Intentional. Elevated. Artisanal. With three children under the age of 5, our clients were starting to feel the confines of their Pacific Heights home when the expansive 1902 Italianate across the street went on the market. After learning the home had been recently remodeled, they jumped at the chance to purchase a move-in ready property. We worked with them to infuse the already refined, elegant living areas with subtle edginess and handcrafted details, and also helped them reimagine unused space to delight their little ones. Elevated furnishings on the main floor complement the home’s existing high ceilings, modern brass bannisters and extensive walnut cabinetry. In the living room, sumptuous emerald upholstery on a velvet side chair balances the deep wood tones of the existing baby grand. Minimally and intentionally accessorized, the room feels formal but still retains a sharp edge—on the walls moody portraiture gets irreverent with a bold paint stroke, and on the the etagere, jagged crystals and metallic sculpture feel rugged and unapologetic. Throughout the main floor handcrafted, textured notes are everywhere—a nubby jute rug underlies inviting sofas in the family room and a half-moon mirror in the living room mixes geometric lines with flax-colored fringe. On the home’s lower level, we repurposed an unused wine cellar into a well-stocked craft room, with a custom chalkboard, art-display area and thoughtful storage. In the adjoining space, we installed a custom climbing wall and filled the balance of the room with low sofas, plush area rugs, poufs and storage baskets, creating the perfect space for active play or a quiet reading session. The bold colors and playful attitudes apparent in these spaces are echoed upstairs in each of the children’s imaginative bedrooms.
