A home office wrapped in warm gray custom millwork creates storage and visual interest. A black marble fireplace anchors the space, adding both visual weight and a sense of comfort. A substantial wood desk sits at the center of the room, paired with upholstered seating that feels equally suited for focused work or relaxed conversation. Overhead, a ceiling with woven insets adds texture softening the room’s strong lines. Floor-to-ceiling windows and layered drapery bring in natural light and views of the landscape, preventing the darker palette from feeling heavy. Thoughtful lighting, sculptural accessories, and a muted area rug complete the space, creating a home office that feels intentional, inviting, and quietly luxurious.

Tucked away on a quiet street in East Memphis, this home was designed to be a private retreat. A beautifully landscaped courtyard welcomes guests and acts as a buffer between the road and the home, providing even more privacy. Inside, a casually elegant design offers a place of respite for family and friends alike, blending in with Memphis' high-quality, residential architecture. Large windows flood every room with natural light and provide a visual connection with the outdoors, and a substantial limestone entry welcomes guests. The home is designed to flow, slowly revealing a new space at every turn. A dramatic, yet elegant, curved staircase welcomes you to the family room, where you are greeted by a fireplace, open kitchen with two islands, dining nook, bar, and 850-bottle wine cooler.

Our homeowners came to us knowing they wanted to stay in their beautiful Arlington neighborhood, close to work, schools, and an active community. Their home, though, was a small one-story home (with basement) that had been built many years ago. Their vision was to add space that still allowed them the use of the substantial front and back yards that they so enjoyed with their family and friends. MOSS designed an entire upper level for them that gave them an incredibly large master suite with ensuite bathroom and large walk-in closet, two exceptionally large bedrooms for their children, and a new hallway bathroom that is accessible for all. Overall, the before and after is a beautiful and very practical change for these customers.

Having a small child, loving to entertain and looking to declutter and kid-proof the gathering spaces of their home in the quaint village of Rockville Centre, Long Island, a stone’s throw from Manhattan, our client’s main objective was to have their living room and den transformed with a family friendly home makeover with mid-century modern tones boasting a formal, yet relaxed spirit Stepping into the home we found their living room and den both architecturally well appointed yet in need of modern transitional furniture pieces and the pops of color our clients admired, as there was a substantial amount of cool, cold grays in the rooms. Decor Aid designer Vivian C. approached the design and placement of the pieces sourced to be kid-friendly while remaining sophisticated and practical for entertaining. “We played off of the clients love for blush pinks, mid-century modern and turquoise. We played with the use of gold and silver metals to mix it up.” In the living room, we used the prominent bay window and its illuminating natural light as the main architectural focal point, while the fireplace and mantels soft white tone helped inform the minimalist color palette for which we styled the room around. To add warmth to the living room we played off of the clients love for blush pinks and turquoise while elevating the room with flashes of gold and silver metallic pieces. For a sense of play and to tie the space together we punctuated the kid-friendly living room with an eclectic juxtaposition of colors and materials, from a beautifully patchworked geometric cowhide rug from All Modern, to a whimsical mirror placed over an unexpected, bold geometric credenza, to the blush velvet barrel chair and abstract blue watercolor pillows. “When sourcing furniture and objects, we chose items that had rounded edges and were shatter proof as it was vital to keep each room’s decor childproof.” Vivian ads. Their vision for the den remained chic, with comfort and practical functionality key to create an area for the young family to come together. For the den, our main challenge was working around the pre-existing dark gray sectional sofa. To combat its chunkiness, we played off of the hues in the cubist framed prints placed above and focused on blue and orange accents which complement and play off of each other well. We selected orange storage ottomans in easy to clean, kid-friendly leather to maximize space and functionality. To personalize the appeal of the den we included black and white framed family photos. In the end, the result created a fun, relaxed space where our clients can enjoy family moments or watch a game while taking in the scenic view of their backyard. For harmony between the rooms, the overall tone for each room is mid-century modern meets bold, yet classic contemporary through the use of mixed materials and fabrications including marble, stone, metals and plush velvet, creating a cozy yet sophisticated enough atmosphere for entertaining family and friends and raising a young children. “The result od this family friendly room was really fantastic! Adding some greenery, more pillows and throws really made the space pop.” Vivian C. Decor Aid’s Designer

A classic contemporary home featuring a living/dining space with 14 ft high ceilings that welcomes family and friends. Classic pieces include 3 taupe leather sofas with custom design and shaped pillows. These pillows are one-of-a-kind. Simple and luxurious. A custom 66" square coffee table and an "origami" sculptural side table enhance the beauty. The two custom tables have been fabricated from hand forged iron and white quartz. The coffee table edge is 4 1/2" thick. The designers realized that these substantial pieces were required in this large space.

The steep hillside lot had been developed with a single-family residence (1965), which was at the maximum area for local zoning; therefore, the only way to enlarge the residence was to add a basement. During the cost analysis process, it became clear that supporting the house while creating a basement – and then substantially remodeling the remaining structure – would require far more effort and treasure than to replace the house entirely. Located just over one mile from the San Andreas Fault, the Owners tasked the design team to find a superior solution to the “Life Safety” standard required by Code. The team combined advances in seismic analysis and building technology to create for the owners one of the most seismically resilient houses built in the US. The newly designed house takes full advantage of the potential of this beautiful site. The home centers on large public rooms opening to outdoor spaces and the use of natural light. On the top level, the kitchen and family room sit side-by-side creating a shared space, with an expansive floor-to-ceiling folding door system allowing the rooms to open completely to the south-facing upper terrace and garage roof deck. An outdoor cooking area supports both family dinners as well as large gatherings of friends and family. Also on the top level, a living room and lounge area open to a large deck cantilevered high above the ground and oriented to the northern views. The feeling of being “in the trees” enhances the connection to the impressive landscape.
