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 :)

Bergen County Bathroom Renovation - Amazing Wall Tile with brass accents

Today I am so happy to share a recently renovated Bergen County bathroom. We selected a beautiful tile for the shower wall that really steals the show. We used brass fixtures for the shower and the sink faucet for a glam look and I love the result!

I love the variation in color of the tile. As soon as we found it in the tile store, we knew it was the winner!

Now let’s take a step back and zoom out to see more of the finished space which features a large vanity and mixed metals of black with brass.

Here is the before photo:

We simplified the floor to let the wall tile in the shower really shine. And we added a sconce over the new (smaller) mirror for an updated look.

Teenage Bedroom Transformation - Bergen County Interior Designer

My clients contacted me in the spring to ask me to do a room transformation for their tween daughter who was going away to sleepaway camp. They wanted it to be a surprise for her when she came home from camp and this sounded SO fun to me! Of course I was up for this project. We had a tight turnaround time, but got it all done and I am so happy to hear that this lucky girl LOVES her new room!!

Here is a photo of her room that I took the day that I first stopped by to take measurements.

As you can see, it was a total transformation with all new furniture, wall color and window treatments.

It’s all in the details - I love the ruffles in the drapes, the new ceiling fixture and the handle bar on the night stands.

I hope that she finds her new desk space to be a productive spot to get homework done.

Here is a before photo of her desk area:

My client told me how much her daughter loves dogs so I was happy to find these adorable prints to display over her bed.

I think this new space will grow with her through middle and high school and I can even see her wanting to bring some of these items to her college dorm. I know I want the night stand and table lamp for my own house :)

One more side by side before/after shot. You’ll notice that when we put the new furniture in place, we moved the nightstand to the other side of her bed. So now it’s front and center when she enters her new room. It was too pretty to hide on the back wall!

I would LOVE to do more tween / teen bedrooms, so definitely reach out to chat about a makeover for your child!

White and Gold Bathroom - Bergen County bathroom designer

I am thrilled to finally share this beautiful bathroom transformation which has been in the works for many months. I was not always patient in getting to the finish line, but as always, it has been worth the wait! My clients wanted to create a timeless and classic bathroom featuring white and gold tones. It was hard to contain my excitement seeing it all come together just as we had planned starting with our first meeting.

Here is a photo that I took when I first saw the space. You’ll notice has much bigger the room feels by opening up that wall between the shower and the vanity!

It feels like a brand new room!

I love how these close up shots really capture the little details.

The shower door is stunning in person!

And when the door is open, you really can appreciate the beautiful wall tile.

The herringbone tile is one of my favorite details.
