Collected & Expressive
A home gains character through the things that make it personal: an intriguing artwork, a vintage find, an unexpected pairing of color and texture. These interiors bring different influences into conversation, balancing expressive choices with a thoughtful sense of proportion. The result feels layered, individual, and collected over time.
Designed around works from the client’s extensive art collection, this den brings a tribal coffee table from Africa into conversation with the surrounding pieces, giving the room a richly collected character.
A custom silk rug anchors the room in colors selected together with the client. Artwork echoes its intensity, while softly toned furnishings provide a quiet counterbalance to the palette’s heat.
Inspired by a natural waterfall near this Pacific Northwest home, custom drapery evokes the movement of falling water, bringing a personal connection to the landscape into the bedroom.
Designed in collaboration with bulthaup, the custom kitchen takes on a playful dimension with three sculptural acrylic flowers suspended above the island—art rather than lighting, chosen with the client to bring the space to life.
Distinctive artwork and a custom iron stair railing give the entryway its character, bringing artistic expression into both the collection and the architecture.
Dramatically oversized artwork sets the scale for this living room, with custom furnishings designed to hold their own alongside it. Bespoke millwork and an iron fireplace surround carry that presence into the architecture.
A custom desk in a black malachite finish meets lacquered walls in a color I developed with the painter, mixed by hand on site. The pairing gives the office a deeply individual character.
A love of purple became the starting point for this living room. A custom silk rug explores the client’s favorite color, with coordinating furnishings bringing balance and depth to the palette.
Custom seating in microfiber and a leather hide rug bring a tailored look to a home shared with cats. Both materials were chosen to reduce snagging, making the clients’ everyday life part of the design from the outset.
A graphic mirror and green upholstered bench bring pattern and personality to this bathroom, while a purple acrylic vase adds a vivid note against the marble vanity. Artwork completes the composition, giving a practical space the character of a collected room.
