Another project by Threshold Interiors I had to share because it’s SO nice to see a loft not decorated with an industrial vibe. Here the beams are exposed and left natural, the brick is painted white and the new kitchen (which unfortunately covers some of those glorious windows) is classic in design. The result is much more homey and charming. 

What a fabulous beach house designed by Threshold Interiors! This Jersey Shore Craftsman is so pleasing to the eye with lots of fun touches like graphic floor tile (and fireplace surround), wallpaper (love that Farrow & Ball Aranami pattern in the bathroom), and the bathrooms are absolutely stunning. And what about this kitchen!! Subway tile, copper, and pale grey cabinets make it timeless and polished.

“Designing a functional lifestyle goes well beyond beauty. It is an expression of where you are in your life. Your home should support you, showcase your interests and allow you to feel grounded.”

It’s about personal style and comfort, about surrounding yourself with what matters and what makes your heart sing. This West Village condo is the designer’s own home created from a once soulless warehouse conversion. Now? Well now it goes beyond trends and tells the story of a life well lived and loved.

When I think of summer I start dreaming about cottages and cabins and beach houses, and this summer retreat in Sag Harbour, New York is a little gem and a great place to spend warm summer weekends. Designed by Elizabeth Cooper, its nautical vibe with blues, stripes, pops of red and shiplap works so well in this environment. And those bleached wood floors have me swooning.

Sweet Pea, a rescue kitty, was discovered high in a tree after someone heard her meow for help. After much coaxing she was “grounded”, and we were the lucky ones who brought her home. Unless kept indoors, she would find her way to higher ground. She has stayed the same size all of her years, never seeming to grow, but in this her twelfth year (give or take), she has developed a soft round Buddha belly and her fur has grown soft and full. She loves walking around in the crook of my husband’s arm & never seems to stop purring. She is the sweetest pea ever. Pictured here on our screened in porch, Sweet Pea spends her days napping & dreaming of chasing squirrels & chipmunks in the garden.
