WEST END AVENUE

A highly social family on the Upper West Side sought our services to help them create more cohesive spaces for entertaining both large and small groups as well as create a unified and inviting space for their family of five.   It was important to them to have big open spaces and to keep furnishings to a minimum in order to turn the large living-dining room from family movie watching night to the kid's music class and dance party in a flash.  We selected furnishings that could be moved around the space and arranged differently based on the momentary needs, while still keeping a tidy and coordinated appearance.  Despite the refined look, we chose durable furnishings and commercial grade fabrics to ensure a long wear for the highly used spaces.  The kitchen, central for our clients’ entertainment needs, required the most renovation - our studio drastically changed the layout, moving walls, doors, stoves, fridges, and just about everything else, to create a dynamic circulation pattern and to greatly increase the amount of storage.  We recreated a fresh, new color palette in all the materials, including the flooring, cabinets, counters, and backsplash tiles, so that the aesthetics resonated with our clients’ crisp, breezy style.  

“Renee was amazing at helping us design our space to fit our needs, style and budget.  She masterfully, and patiently, led us to a finished design that reflected our personality while finding ingenious solutions to obstacles.  She created a space that was entirely our style, but more fabulous than we could ever do ourselves!”
