A Sunny NYC Oasis
January 29, 2005

As seen in New York Spaces Magazine, this light, bright space was reborn from a previously dark and dreary, walled-off prewar kitchen and dining area and offers a modern take on the clients’ love of midcentury design.

Clever design conceals unmovable ductwork and beams (typical in NYC construction) and offers privacy and definition.

My lovely client and friend needed an update for her all white NYC apartment that was more fitting of her lively family of four. We added dimension and charm to the walls with brick veneer and updated the kitchen with a highly-functional island.

My own kitchen
April 21, 2012

As seen in House Beautiful Magazine (“Kitchen of the Month”, April 2012, p. 123), my own kitchen came together to compliment the style of my 1905 home while honoring the way I cook and the way my family likes to live. Lots of open shelves and pot racks help keep everything we need within arms reach and super organized. Our beautiful La Cornue Albertine range was a dream come true and the steamer trunk detail on the black island complements its style. Magnetic chalkboards on the refrigerator panels make the kitchen fun for the whole family.
