You’ve probably heard the old adage—how do you eat a whale? One bite at a time. The same goes for furnishing a home, especially when moving into a large space from a smaller city apartment. Many new homeowners face sticker shock when they realize just how much furniture is needed to fill a home. On top of that, balancing personal style with budget constraints can feel overwhelming.

One of our favorite projects was transforming the parlor level of a stunning brownstone. This brownstone interior design project required a careful balance of style and functionality to bring our client’s vision to life. After an extensive renovation, we stepped in to furnish and decorate the main living areas. Our client, overwhelmed with decision fatigue, had a clear aesthetic vision – see how we pulled it all together.

Thanksgiving is looming. While many look to quick-fix decor stores for festive touches, our clients focus on planning menus. When your dining room design already shines, there’s no need for pumpkin-shaped vases or other seasonal gimmicks. Sure – we love a good napkin, candlestick, or centerpiece. But well-designed spaces rely on timeless wallpaper, lighting, and furniture.
