Bergen County designer - Home Office Transformation

I am so happy to share this home office transformation! My client needed more storage space and a pretty background for zoom calls and we created this built-in to go behind her desk.

Here is where we started with the space:

We used the same desk but you can see that there is so much more storage now and everything is neatly hidden in the drawers and cabinets. We went with a both color for the unit and brass picture lights and a light grey countertop. The leather chair is such a lovely compliment to the color palette of the built-in.

Bergen County Kitchen Designer - Renovation Details

I am so happy to share photos of this recently renovated kitchen. We started this process about a year ago with the planning stage and then in the summer the work began and finally last week we were able to photograph the finished space. It’s stunning!!

Here is where we started with the kitchen:

You can see we removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room and added more windows as well.

I really love the custom table which features an easy to clean Quartz top.

I am a big fan of open shelves in a kitchen (I have them in my own kitchen and after 8 years, no regrets!). We took the tile up to the ceiling around the shelves and the windows as well.

I absolutely love to decorate shelves - whether they are in a kitchen or in an office or built-ins by a fireplace- it makes me so happy to style a shelf. These were no exception and I really love how the wood stain came out as a nice contrast to the dark wood floors in the kitchen.

We went with a dark color for the island and the rich color goes so perfectly with the brass hardware.

Here is a closer look at the clock and pendants. Mixing metals and finishes in a kitchen really elevates the space.

The cabinets are all inset which I think is such a timeless and classic style. From this view you can also see all of the natural light that the kitchen enjoys from the additional windows and larger slider to the deck.

The pendant over the kitchen table is such a fun focal point from this side of the kitchen.

Leather stools are so practical, especially with kids for easy clean up. The legs of the stools are a similar wood tone to the open shelves.

I love the extra thick Quartz top used on the island.

Stay tuned for more from this home- we are working on the the living room now which will hopefully be wrapped up in the spring.

Basement Renovation - Basement Bar and Office- Bergen County NJ designer

Today I am excited to share this basement renovation in Bergen County NJ. I first started working with my clients on this space about a year ago and am so happy to see it finally finished. The basement serves several functions for their family and I will start with the main area which includes the TV/hangout area along with the bar. What a fantastic place for entertaining!

Here is a photo that I took during the construction phase:

I love these leather stools at the bar and the dark Quartz countertops.

The tile is so pretty too!!

To keep the space light and airy, we went with lighter tones on the wall and floor but brought in pops of blue with the sofa, the rug and in the bar area. The media unit provides lots of storage on the bottom for toys and games and it was fun to decorate the shelves on the upper half.

Next up is the bathroom. The classic wood vanity with marble countertop really lets the blue tile shine as the star of the show!

The champagne bronze finish is the perfect pairing with the tile.

Finally, the basement also includes an office which has a sleeper sofa to double as a guest bedroom as needed.

Nursery Transformation- Baby Boy nursery with blue dresser

I am happy to share this recent nursery transformation for a sweet baby boy. The color palette is so soothing with a mix of neutrals and a pop of blue with the dresser.

The dresser is probably my favorite part and I love how the wooden mirror complements the crib.

Here is where we started with this room which used to serve as a guest bedroom/ office.

The rug is so cozy with a subtle design and drapes have a fun pattern- I love how they are reflected in the mirror.
