Old meets new in this bright, eclectic 100 year old home of designer Jonathan Steinitz and his husband located in Columbus, Ohio. This is what I love to see – people appreciating the history of a home and working hard to restore original features. Here they re-exposed some beautiful worn brick and original hardwood flooring. The white walls really accentuate these elements and some modern mixed with vintage furnishings really add personality.

I had to share one other impeccably executed project by cityhomeCOLLECTIVE. We sought to honor the bones of this Craftsman bungalow, but wanted to avoid sinking into a literal interpretation of the era. To this end, we kept the original trim, flooring, and window casings, and struck balance and interest by integrating contemporary and mid-century light fixtures, furniture, and art with pieces that lent texture, color, and patterns to the space. Art played a big role in the transformation, and we used clean, modern pieces to slice through the heavy, dark seriousness of the Craftsman aesthetic. This one hits home because my home is also a Craftsman and I too wanted to honour the architectural details and keep it current.

Vibrant colours, high energy and a unique style is Right Meets Left Interior Design, Courtney McLeod’s studio in the heart of the Flatiron District in Manhattan. The name Right Meets Left perfectly reflects our approach to the design process – rooted in an ideal balance of innovative design (right brain) and analytical rigor (left brain).  We utilize a kaleidoscopic toolbox of texture, pattern, and color to create a singular and cohesive expression of each client’s unique personality and lifestyle.

Glamour with an edge – a favourite combo of mine as seen in this Beverly Hills home designed by Roxy Sowlaty. She’s a fan of anything gold, lucite or sparkly. Bring on the bling!
