At only 1500 sq ft, this 1960s ranch house in on the North Fork of Long Island seems much larger with it’s white painted walls and ceilings (vaulter ceilings sure help), the addition of a screened porch that feels like an extension of the living room and a new window in the kitchen. Some casual furnishings (in a high-low mix) in shades of white, dark and wood make this weekend retreat an absolute delight for designer and homeowner Dan Mazzarini of BHDM.

To Hollywood power couple Ruben Fleischer and Holly Shakoor Fleischer’s 10,000 square feet Tudor Revival home in Montclair, New Jersey—which was built in 1908 and had previously served as a designer showhouse—we added a sense of cohesion, stripping out some newer elements that had been added over the years, to focus on the building’s original details. We lightened up the formal living room with sculptural furniture, like an asymmetrical velvet-covered boomerang sofa atop a shaggy patchwork Moroccan rug. In the dining room, we resurfaced the fireplace surround with custom watery-blue glazed tile, painted the original woodwork deep midnight blue, and added floral wallpaper that played off the Kehinde Wiley painting that we hung in the room. Then, because the family loves playing together, we created a video arcade for their vintage machines, an art-making room, and a Lego-building room, in addition to his-and-hers offices.
Studio DB did so right by this house. I cannot praise them enough for maintaining some of the original architectural details which look soooo incredible juxtaposed against the modern design scheme. Taking the history of the home seriously but not THAT seriously. Photos: Matthew Williams; Styling Lili Diallo.

























Give me all the wood-wrapped homes! This guest cottage in Tennessee is wrapped in honey-coloured hickory that adds such a warmth and makes you feel like you’re in a tree house. Other elements add to the coziness and bring more natural elements in like the sloped ceilings, smaller rooms, they left the fieldstone foundation and chimney bare, and heated stone pavers in the ground floor rooms. Designer Tammy Connor and architect Stanley Dixon really nailed this project.



















Built in 1915 and renovated again and again until it was purchased in 2022, deconstructed and renewed by Christina Simon Studio. The client works in the music industry as well as other industries pertaining to wellness, neurobiology and expanding consciousness. This property serves as the client’s pied a terre for hosting several industry parties during SXSW and ACL and the design of the home was to reflect and contribute to the fun and ambiance of these events.
I think this meets the 4 word brief of “Austin eclectic hippie vibe”. It’s a dark and moody gentleman’s hangout with a retro, groovy vibe. I really dig this. Photos: Douglas Friedman.
