Second nature – a penthouse in Tribeca

Posted on Wed, 18 Sep 2024 by KiM

I had to share another new project by Sean Anderson, one that is a bit more sophisticated than his typical spaces but when you’re working with an expansive Tribeca apartment in New York I think it goes without saying that there’s an expectation to spice it up and make it classy. Contemporary but make it Sean Anderson moody. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

A moody Greek Revival home in Memphis

Posted on Mon, 16 Sep 2024 by KiM

As it always goes, Sean Anderson shares a new project and I completely fall head over heels in love and dream of selling everything I own and trying to replicate his deliciously brooding style that is always the perfect mix of light and dark (but more dark, which is in my humble opinion is the ideal ratio). This Greek Revival home in Memphis has such incredible architectural details which make his choices of colours, materials and furnishings really stand out. Every single thing in this home is perfection. Photos: Haris Kenjar.

Modern & classic in a San Francisco home

Posted on Fri, 6 Sep 2024 by KiM

Classic, yet unique and unexpected. Livable. Legit antiques, cool vintage, modern art, good bones, texture and materials, custom and found….
Next level sophistication and spaces for every possible need, including relaxing, drinking, dining, chilling, sleeping, lounging, smoking, cleaning…. I am obsessed with the stick figure art grouping in the living room (by Jean-Marc Louis). Pacific Heights I by Lisa Hilderbrand. Photos: John Merkl.

A dreamy historic New Jersey foyer

Posted on Tue, 13 Aug 2024 by KiM

The concept was a time-traveling train station as we referenced details of the original Chatham train station in the shelf and corbels of the custom booth, to the 70s California references and Viennese Hoffman chairs our client brought to the meetings. We tore down an outdated, clumsy coat closet to create a cozy fireside seating area with a hidden tech-cubby.
This foyer is an absolute dream! The tiny vestibule with newly built-in storage, all that glorious woodwork, the sweet powder room, those wallpapered stair niches….LOVE! Designed by Hollie Velten. Photos: Tom Leonczik.

A chic log cabin for a family’s cottage

Posted on Tue, 30 Jul 2024 by KiM

A log home with stone floors (where the logs aren’t stained some ghastly orange/yellow tone) is honestly one of the most beautiful and comforting style of homes. This absolute delight located in St-Alexis, Québec was designed by Blanc Marine Intérieurs, and while in my youth I might have thought the coolest thing in the world would be to live in a huge industrial loft, in my old age it’s a well-done log cabin. They are easy to get wrong but this one is oh so right. Photos: Photographie Intérieure.
