PINEWOOD MASTER BEDROOM

WE HAD A CLEAN SLATE FOR THIS MASTER BEDROOM AND DECIDED TO START WITH THE DRAPERY FABRIC. THE HOMEOWNERS FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS ONE AND IT WAS FANTASTIC TO WORK OFF!
THIS BEDROOM IS A VERY LARGE SPACE AND A COZY SEATING VIGNETTE WAS A MUST. WE ADDDED 2 CLUB CHAIRS AND AN OTTOMAN.
WE ALSO CUSTOM MADE THE HEADBOARD AND MATCHING BEDSKIRT. THE 2 BEDSIDE CHESTS CREATE A NICE BALANCE AND PROVIDES AMPLE STORAGE / SURFACE AREA.
FINALLY THE CRACKLED CERAMIC LAMPS WITH PLEATED SHADES OFFER A BEDROOM APPROPRIATE SOFTNESS.

PINEWOOD FOYER MAKEOVER

THIS SPACIOUS FOYER NEEDED TO BE BRIGHTENED UP AND FILLED UP!
WE STARTED WITH THE PRINTED GRASSCLOTH TO PROVIDE DEPTH AND TEXTURE. THE HOMEOWNERS REALLY WANTED A CENTER TABLE FOR THE FOCAL POINT. WE DECIDED TO GO WITH A CUSTOM MADE HEXAGON SKIRTED TABLE IN A VIBRANT GREEN SILK.....AND WOW, THE FABRIC'S REFLECTIVE QUALITY AND COLOR INTENSITY CERTAINLY ADDS LIFE TO THIS DARKER SPACE!
FINALLY, THE ROMAN SHADES OUTLINED IN A COMPLIMENTARY BANDING TIE TOGETHER THE WHOLE LOOK.

BEFORE AND AFTER: PINEWOOD FAMILY ROOM

hands down, this cottage style house is ADORABLE!!! it sits on a large lot with killer views of virginia beach's princess anne country club golf course...this has been a super fun project for such a wonderful family of five.
we started 6 months ago....new house, new stuff! i basically had a clean slate and the family room was the first space to tackle. 
GREEN was the requested color scheme.... my customers are horse people and really embrace the look of the traditional virginia countryside....and they were moving from a farm......so i wanted to give them a comfortable space...cozy, but still airy, with a timeless (yet current) look......and it had to handle dog traffic, and 9 year old boys traffic!
here's the before..........

AND THE NEIGHBORING KITCHEN AREA...........

MY NEW YORK CITY PAD.....IF ONLY I HAD THE $$$!

my upcoming SHOPPING TRIP to the new york design center OCTOBER 3RD-4TH has me way more excited than my typical nyc business trip. as usual, my parents tag along and we stay in a courtyard marriott in midtown........
HOWEVER, the courtyard recently redid the lobby-i HATE it!!!! i (we) needed a change....this time we are staying at The Waldorf...wahoo!
my dad and i are especially psyched for cocktail hour in the lobby and people watching!! my famous person radar is always up- (last visit i spotted(and conversed) with CAMERON DIAZ!! :-)...she was actually SUPER awesome considering i basically attacked her on the sidewalk-sorta :-)..SHE even reached to shake MY hand-LOVE her!!!
so here's the pad that my family and friends will  join me in for all my future nyc shopping trips!! ...hhmmmm...between 5th avenue and madison in the 60's?  how much do i have to save for this? 100-150k-HAH!
thanks to pinterest for loaning all these amazing pics from amazing designers!!!
