From NYC to Bergen County- Project Reveal - Ridgewood interior designer

My clients first contacted me last October when they were in the process of buying their first home in Bergen County after living in NYC with their young kids. The home they were purchasing did not need any construction / renovation right away but they needed help with furnishing and decorating. Because they were coming from a NYC apartment that was smaller than this new house, we were starting from scratch for the whole first floor. I am so happy that everything is finally installed and we had our photo shoot last week. Come take a tour!

Let’s start with the entryway - I love this console table paired with the round mirror and if you look closely there is a fun woven strap detail on the mirror.

As you can see in th e mirror, the opposite wall is a bench with hooks as a drop zone for the family and guests.

Next you walk into an open space which is the main family room of the home. We added built-ins on the one side of the TV to hide some of the electronics related to the TV and it gave us an opportunity to add some decor.

Here is where we started with this space:

The round coffee table is very kid friendly but also so pretty!

There is a console table behind the sofa which was a perfect spot to display family photos.

You can see from some of the earlier photos that the dining room is part of this big open space.

Here is the before photo of the dining room area.

The art has such a beautiful texture and pairs so well with the new light fixture.

The office is another space that we worked on and I love that my client’s husband wanted to go bold with the walls in here!

I wish I had a better “before” photo but it was basically an empty room :)

Family Room Dining Room Transformation - Wyckoff NJ interior designer

I am so excited to share this newly transformed family room. This project was a total blank slate which is always my favorite type. My clients wanted to incorporate built-ins to the large back wall of the family room and then add more seating as well.

The blue tones are so calming and serene and make for such a lovely color palette.

Here is a “before” photo that I took when I first met my clients earlier this year.

As you can see, the built-ins make such a huge impact!

Selecting all of the little details - from the decor on the coffee table to everything that you see on the shelves of the built-ins - is my favorite part of the project!! I love styling tables and shelves.

The family room opens up to the dining room which also got a transformation! We installed a new light fixture, drapes and replaced the table and chairs. There also used to be wallpaper in the space that we swapped out for paint and then the carpenter added paneling to the bottom half of the walls.

Here is where we started with the dining room!

I am so happy with how this space came together for my clients!

Ridgewood NJ decorator - Living Room Transformation

We recently completed a multi-room project in Ridgewood that included this formal living room. If you look closely, you will notice the home office that I shared last week. For this living room, I recommended a dark blue sofa and I am thrilled that my client said yes! We also painted, replaced the wall sconces and incorporated all new furnishings.

Check out where we started with this space:

When you face the other direction you get a great view into the family room.

The family room has lots of beautiful windows which provide such pretty light.

We did not touch the lovely stone fireplace and we also kept the existing window treatments but incorporated new furnishings and decor.

Here is where we started with this space:

I love using the Frame TV which looks like a framed piece of art when you aren’t watching TV.

Bergen County NJ interior designer - dining room transformation

I am so excited to share this dining room transformation. It is a fantastic example of how you don’t need to replace everything in a space in order for it to have a brand new look. My clients were keeping their existing table and chairs and a bookshelf that they already owned. But they wanted a new light fixture, paint color, wall art, window treatments, decor for the bookshelf, dining table centerpiece and a new storage piece of furniture.

In this first photo, you can see the new paint, light fixture, centerpiece and wall art. The framed prints are from my clients’ travels all over the world.

We started with a blank wall (and a darker wall color) as you can see in the below before photo:

On the other side of the wall, there is a fireplace and my clients wanted to add a storage piece. I love the one that we selected and how it fills the space. The new light fixture and paint color also make the room feel brand new.

In the corner, my clients had this shelf that they wanted to keep but wanted help with styling. So I was able to select all new decor and am so happy with the finished result! We also added beautiful woven wood window treatments to the window which add texture and warmth.
