Welcome!

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by design and the subtle impact of our surroundings. Some of my earliest influences still resonate – I think of the dark woods and textured lodens of my father’s shooting club, the smell of fresh paint on a new canvas, and the bold symmetry of the Philip Johnson Glass house just down the street. For me, it was a natural path to become an Interior Designer. I love what I do. I’ve created this Blog to share my thoughts, finds and design inspirations. I hope you enjoy it!

Some of my favorite places to design in a house ar Some of my favorite places to design in a house are hallways and small spaces. This large home’s interiors flow easily into each other with tones of blue and cream with carefully design transition spaces. This upper stair landing turns into the primary suite hallway. We chose antiques, wall finishes, lighting, fabric and window treatments to make each of these spaces inviting and compliment the major rooms. #sblformalroundhill​
