From NYC to Bergen County- Project Reveal - Ridgewood interior designer

My clients first contacted me last October when they were in the process of buying their first home in Bergen County after living in NYC with their young kids. The home they were purchasing did not need any construction / renovation right away but they needed help with furnishing and decorating. Because they were coming from a NYC apartment that was smaller than this new house, we were starting from scratch for the whole first floor. I am so happy that everything is finally installed and we had our photo shoot last week. Come take a tour!

Let’s start with the entryway - I love this console table paired with the round mirror and if you look closely there is a fun woven strap detail on the mirror.

As you can see in th e mirror, the opposite wall is a bench with hooks as a drop zone for the family and guests.

Next you walk into an open space which is the main family room of the home. We added built-ins on the one side of the TV to hide some of the electronics related to the TV and it gave us an opportunity to add some decor.

Here is where we started with this space:

The round coffee table is very kid friendly but also so pretty!

There is a console table behind the sofa which was a perfect spot to display family photos.

You can see from some of the earlier photos that the dining room is part of this big open space.

Here is the before photo of the dining room area.

The art has such a beautiful texture and pairs so well with the new light fixture.

The office is another space that we worked on and I love that my client’s husband wanted to go bold with the walls in here!

I wish I had a better “before” photo but it was basically an empty room :)

Kitchen transformation with green cabinets - Bergen County interior designer

I am so excited to share this kitchen transformation! Last July, when I first met my client we talked about how she envisioned green cabinets in her kitchen and I was in total support of this idea. We made all of the selections later in the summer and then had a long wait until the renovation was completed in February. But I can confidently say that it was definitely worth the wait

Here is where we started with the kitchen:

You will notice that we kept the layout of the kitchen virtually the same although we did enlarge the window because my client has a green thumb. We also added light fixtures with the pendants over the sink and the island.

The backsplash tile is one of my favorites and we were able to go right up to the ceiling with it around the new window.

I don’t love being in front of the camera, but it’s hard not to smile being in this gorgeous kitchen!

I am happy that my client was on board with mixing metals - I think the black and brass pair so perfectly together.

There is a small bathroom right off of the kitchen - you can see the kitchen in the reflection of the mirror. We felt like the bathroom was an extension of the kitchen so we kept the same paint color and incorporated black in the fixtures.

Here is a before/after comparison of the bathroom:
