Inspiration for a contemporary home office remodel in New York

In this charming Dutch Colonial, our clients wanted modern touches while preserving the home’s century-old character. To honor the home’s history, we preserved the original hardwood floors and introduced all-new inset white oak cabinetry—some stained black for depth and durability, others left in a lighter stain for warmth—paired with honed Calacatta Oro Terra marble countertops. In the dining area, a full-height glass cabinet features distinctive iron-framed glass doors with LED interior lighting. The kitchen functions as both a culinary workspace and a social hub, anchored by a sculptural banquette island and accented with dark bronze and iron finishes. Phantom screens surround the new covered patio, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Rooted in tradition and elevated through design, this home is made for gathering, celebrating, and savoring life together.

Inspiration for a contemporary home office remodel in New York

This young couple was ready to make some changes to their master bedroom. They already laid a great foundation for me: beautiful wall color, carpet and trim. We just needed to update their furnishings and make this space feel more like them. They requested a bedroom that was more classic than trendy and a space that feels relaxing and spa-like. I started with the big pieces. I know they liked the light, upholstered bed look, which is awesome because I get so many clients who shy away from this option for fear of it getting dirty. Next up were the case pieces: dresser, night stands, high boy. I know a lot of designers who favor designing a bedroom with non-matching sets, but in this case, I thought opting for matching nightstands and dressers was the most classic choice and will stand the test of time best. They also a requested an area for the wive to do her make up and hair separate from the bathroom with ample light. I found a vanity, replaced the matching stool with an accent chair in a grey ikat print and used a pair of existing lamps. Extra seating is provided at the end of the bed on a tufted grey bench. The inverted pleat drapes are custom made with black out lining. Accessories and wall art were added to infuse personality and warm up the space.
