Project Reveal- virtual design NJ interior designer

I just got a client review and after photo via email from a project that I worked on virtually last summer/fall and I am so excited to share!!

This was a dining room transformation - my client said that that the room really only was used for major holidays and that they wanted to convert it into more of a multi functional room. One of the must-haves was two desks for the kids to use for school.

Here is the review:

Christie was so friendly and easy to work with throughout the whole design process, all of which we did virtually. She transformed our previously unused space into a beautiful and functional space that works perfectly for our family. Christie was always unbelievably quick to respond to any questions or concerns that we had along the way and able to quickly pivot when we ran into design challenges. She was a pleasure to work with and can’t recommend her services enough!

Thank you!!

And now the after photo that my client sent me! PS that is a Clove Print abstract on the wall called A Day in the City.

How to mix and match pillows - Ridgewood area interior designer

I love pillows and always enjoy selecting them when I am working on a client project. This week on Instagram, I shared this photo of my family room and I wanted to chat a little about how to mix and match pillows.

Pick a color palette and take into account what colors will work with the sofa/chair/bed that the pillows will be on.

Have fun with patterns and don’t be afraid to deviate from a traditional “set” of pillows for a more curated look.

Play with different sizes so that you have a combination of larger (24 or 22”) pillows in the back and smaller pillows in front.

In this living room we paired a couple of different blue pillows with an ivory pillow for contrast.

In this space I searched for pillows that would compliment the beautiful pattern in the rug and fell in love with this combination of earthy tones paired with blue lumbar pillows.

And in my “ackermanhomeproject living room you can see those sweet green striped pillows in the back on the brown leather chairs. And then on the ivory sofa I brought in some blue with the larger pillow and a more neutral lumbar pillow in front.

Shelf Styling Tips - NJ interior designer

Built ins are so much fun to style but can definitely be overwhelming. My own built ins in my family room are in a constant state of change as I move things around and buy new things. It’s fun for me to play :)

Here are a couple of tips if you are going to update your shelves:

  1. Start by taking everything off the shelves

  2. Put the big items on the shelves first and make sure you have items that are various different heights and shapes

  3. Use greenery (whether it’s real or faux)

  4. Add in books

Here is a close up of one of my frames with a Clover Print Shop abstract print
