A Long Weekend Interior Design Install in Connecticut

Having a bi-coastal design business simply means that I have to spend even more time on flights between the East and West coasts of the US. When I get these results, I must admit I am happy to do it!

This past weekend, after my panel during WestWeek, I jumped on a plane and headed to Connecticut, to quickly install my client's weekend getaway just in time for their Easter break.
I always prefer to have my installs done all at once, providing my clients with that amazing WOW moment as they enter for the first time and see it all come together..

In some cases though, these need to be parceled out into a few phases in order to allow for the family to enjoy the home throughout the process. We still try and make the magic happen for them nonetheless!

Here are a few sneak peak moments that I shared on Instagram from that trip!

From the moment you enter this home, we wanted to invite you in with happy colorful surprises, taking this builder spec home to a more custom high end look through the addition of grasscloth wallpaper and painting the stairs as well as a custom gorgeous new stair runner.

In the main living areas, including both the living and home theater space, bright bold stripes and patterns are what continue the feeling of the beach home getaway that this family was hoping for.

Mixing antique finds, custom designed furniture ...

while using soft neutral wallpapers as a backdrop to the different bedrooms and hallways, added that much needed texture and layer to bring this home that extra step.

Could not be more thrilled with these few details and can't wait to be able to finish up the design with more wallpapers on ceilings, custom light fixtures and art as we finish up this design just in time for Memorial Day Weekend!
