REFINED RETREAT
They wanted a neutral palette to allow him to showcase his own professional photography. On the first level, a mix of textiles in both subtle tone-on-tone textures and geometric patterns provide interest without distraction. Layers of lighting set different moods and direct focus to the art. Their extra large master bedroom is now a warm and inviting space, achieved by creating separate areas for the bed, lounging and a desk. Soft blues and neutral taupe and cream colors in the fabrics, rugs, bedding and curtains tie the areas together into a harmonious suite.
“I was surprised and delighted at Liza’s attention to detail, respect for the budget, and ability to pull everything together within just a few months from start to finish.”
“Wow! Everyone who’s visited our home is amazed at the transformation. Our formerly cavernous, cold bedroom is warm and inviting with a separate sitting area and desk where I actually enjoy paying bills. To say it looks like a luxury hotel suite may not quite be doing it justice because it is by no means sterile. But to me it feels like a vacation retreat. I also look for excuses to sit in the living room even when I’m not entertaining because I find it so pleasing. In addition to bringing a fine aesthetic sensibility to the job, Liza was very organized and responsive to our input and concerns (which, I should add, were negligible). She listened. She provided detailed budgets and was on time with each phase of the project, so there were no surprises. Having worked with many contractors who were cavalier about the quality and timeliness of their work, I was surprised and delighted at Liza’s attention to detail, respect for the budget, and ability to pull everything together within just a few months from start to finish. In short, Liza is already on board for my next design project: the kitchen. I can’t wait to get started.”
