How does a designer like me determine what you’ll like and show you the right products?

When you’re my client, I take you through a multi-step Conceptual Design phase at the beginning of the project. I learn about your needs and preferences, and allow you room to explore new possibilities as well.

Read my latest BLOG post to see how I do this and why my clients repeatedly say that I’ve “nailed it” when I present their design scheme — almost always in the first try:

My process for uncovering your true aesthetic.

Photoshoot day for my Carroll Gardens project. Crafting vignettes, styling florals and props, zhuzhing to perfection with my skilled photographer Gloria Kilbourne and antiques-loving stylist Mariah Raelle Rich

I first learned of Mariah when I read a feature of her unbelievably stylish Brooklyn brownstone in Remodelista magazine. Fast forward a couple year, and now we’re working together. Feels like a milestone in my designer journey, collaborating with these talented women.

Stay tuned for project photos coming soon…

Finally! Furniture and art installation day at the UES pied-a-terre.

I had an awesome crew of art handlers and professional movers working with me.

This was a complex day: a 12’ Korean panel was wall-mounted and all the new furniture needed to be delivered from the receiving warehouse within limited building hours.

Rugs placed, tv installed, bedding made, shower curtain hung, books shelved…whew!

Sneak preview of the space before professional photography happens in October.

A preview of some of the beauties I’ve selected for my Lincoln Square project. Sleek yet textured, elegant but unfussy. Clients said my selections were perfect for what they were looking for.

To me, “timeless design” means blending vintage and antiques from different eras and parts of the globe, together in one layered but cohesive space. It does NOT mean a design that’s so “safe” that it feels banal.

If you travel frequently or work a rigorous schedule, you know how good it feels to come home at the end of a long day.

Especially to a serene, relaxing bedroom.

And that means a nicely made bed to greet you.

On the blog, I’m sharing my designer guide for styling your bed in a way that looks good without taking too much time to maintain on the daily.

Plus, see inspo from my portfolio and other designers’ work.

It feels good to see a luxuriously made bed (even when nobody else is looking).

Sounds like I nailed the Schematic Design presentation for Lincoln Square. Clients said they were impressed I pulled together the plan so quickly, really listened to their many needs and desires, and that I have a great eye. I’ll take the compliment :)

Here are some selections from the presentation I shared.

A few days in Santa Fe. Kinda touristy, but very pleasant. Sunshine, mild climate, excellent Mexican food, great margaritas, and even a day of soaking in a natural hot springs spa at Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs.

Can’t escape design in Santa Fe: I got to visit talented weaver Anjuli Bernstein at her new local studio, put a face with the name of Asian antiques dealer Sunnyside Trading Co., and discover beautiful design galleries like Neighbour and Santa Kilim.

Art installation and final furnishings delivery wrapped up my Carroll Gardens project. I brought in professional art handlers to mount paintings, mirror, wall fixtures. The guys were amazing!

A few punch list items to take care of for my nice clients, and then it will be complete.

Here’s a sneak peak before professional photography in September.

VIP Showrooms Day excursion — with my Lincoln Square client. This was an “abridged” shorter day, but we still made it to 8 showrooms in 4 hours!

My client got to see and feel Scandinavian modern seating, contemporary glass lighting, Italian vintage design, New Zealand rugs, English custom millwork.

Then I used our visit as my inspiration for the design scheme I’m preparing for them.
