Real people live here.
This is the stuff I dream about. We’re at the end of a project, the furniture placement is tweaked and the art is mostly hung. We then pull out our very best styling tips to add the final layer. We love to “shop”...Read More

I thought this was a fitting subject with kids underfoot for the summer. It is definitely open to interpretation and very subjective. Some folks want high design, perhaps necessitating a “no” touching rule. Others prefer a relaxed...Read More
Invest in a little work now, then kick back in a cleaner, lighter and brighter environment for summertime enjoyment and relaxation. I don’t always...Read More
Your desk. Where hard work, a calendar overrun with notes, and perhaps even some aggressive paper shuffling Read More
I have open shelving in this laundry room, so cannot stash things out of sight. It is also a pass-through room from the mudroom to the laundry room to the bathroom. I wanted it to be somewhat “pretty” and eventually will wallpaper...Read More
I am in Canada (a.k.a. The Frozen Tundra), visiting my folks, and I am reminded of how influential my mother’s design aesthetic has been on my own. My parents moved into this condo, almost 19...Read More
We’ve got a lot of projects happening round here and it feels mostly all about bathrooms! For one client, we designed two bathrooms, both modest in size, but where we added lots of function. The guest bathroom was complete first. Thankfully the homeowner was...Read More
Warning in advance: this blog smacks of “horn-tootin”. I’m going back and still playing catch-up by photographing more client work. The “F” family (no relation to Mr. F&F) was delightful. They have possibly the best behaved children ever since they played outside...Read More
This settee had special meaning but it didn’t serve a function anymore for us. But, boy oh boy, letting go of the stuff seems really hard.
We focused on interior restyling services for the main floor for the master bedroom, family room, sunroom, dining room and living room. The basement...Read More
This is one of the treasures I found at auction in the mountains this past weekend. Thought...Read More
Busy Monday had me thinking that a bar would be nice. Although my usual quaff only requires a corkscrew and a nice popping sound, I still like the idea of a bar. I don’t have a trolley cart but I have a wooden counter area that “serves” as a bar. Had a lucite tray that was collecting...Read More
If ever there was a place to let whimsy reign…that would be a child’s bathroom. There are many things (beyond Donna’s towel idea) that I love about this design. It incorporates recycling (an old tub, found-object art, former-dresser-turned-sink-cabinet), her eclectic style and lots...Read More
Towels. I’m talking towels. Three kids sharing a bathroom can be problematic, especially when one of them is a girl who never ever ever wants to mistakenly use one of her brothers’ yucky towels. Got some towels at Restoration Hardware (at the “friends and family” sale offered...Read More
