These homeowners recently purchased this spacious condominium and asked us to help furnish and finish their Living Areas. Their incredible collection of artwork was our inspiration.
We pulled the color palette from this gorgeous rug from Frances Lee Jaspur Oriental Rugs. The Living Area was large enough to accommodate a neutral sofa, two colorful club chairs, and a comfy settee in a teal chenille fabric. We added decorative panels in a whimsical leaf motif to finish off the bay window.
There is so much color inspiration in this Prospect Condo, and the window treatments bring in warmth that finishes off the home nicely. To get more inspiration for your window treatments, click here and here. Enjoy!

Carriage house over garage renovation and addition. Newly retired homeowners elected to rent out their adjacent single family home and live in this small carriage house. They wanted a functional, organized and absolutely beautiful space. To accomplish that, they decided to renovate the existing utilitarian space and add a large outdoor deck.

This landmarked brownstone on Prospect Park West already had extraordinary bones—and the rare advantage of windows on three sides. That natural light allowed us to rethink the traditional parlor-floor layout into something more open, connected, and reflective of the way the family lives today, while still honoring the building’s historic character.
The original sequence—a front parlor, a formal dining room in the center, and a closed-off kitchen at the rear—was replaced with a single, flowing main level anchored by a generous slate-blue kitchen. The cabinetry forms a C-shaped configuration that maximizes storage, creates a natural dining zone, and maintains easy circulation to the backyard through the existing glass French door. A full-height marble backsplash with brass inlay adds subtle drama, extending to the ceiling around the windows, and a built-in desk niche creates a casual workspace that feels fully integrated into the design.
Because storage was a priority, the kitchen includes multiple pantry cabinets and deep pull-outs to keep daily life efficient and uncluttered.
The living room now occupies the center of the plan, serving as a shared hub between the kitchen and the front of the home. Just inside the entry, we designed a custom reading nook framed by floor-to-ceiling bookcases with integrated bench seating—an intentional space for the couple and their teenage daughter, who value reading and wanted their books to be both displayed and actively used.
The entry itself was also reimagined. Now separated from the main living space by a wall and door, it functions as a true vestibule with a built-in storage wall for coats and shoes. Tucked beside it is a playful powder room featuring a green vanity, floral wallpaper, and a grey-and-white mosaic tile floor—continued throughout the entry to visually tie the front of the house together and add a moment of personality within the historic shell.
The result is a garden level that remains rooted in its 19th-century architecture but fully supports modern life—light-filled, functional, and thoughtfully layered.
