OUR FIRST SHOWHOUSE









  

My mother & I are working on a room for a show in Glen Cove, NY starting in October.  We were lucky enough to score a wonderful, light filled sun room (above with my adorable mother).  Our aesthetic is a mix of tailored & traditional (my mother) as well as modern & preppy (myself).  Here is a glimpse at our game plan. The overall colors will be different, but the feeling is definitely reflected in this rendering. 



The process is a lot harder than I imagined. I give designers a lot of credit now that I know what actually goes into creating a room for a show.  Getting vendors on board to lend pieces & fabrics, and also scheming in a very limited amount of time plus a whole lot of money is involved.  In the end though, it is worth it to be able to showcase what your true style is because often times you don't really get to do this in a clients home. 



I can't wait to share more, but until then I hope you like what we've come up with so far.
