| | | The Kingsland Project | A Study in Contrast
The Kingsland project was a full refresh of the living room and kitchen for a beautiful family who realized it was finally time for their home to reflect them. After moving in, the spaces remained largely untouched — white walls throughout, with a single dark grey moment in the kitchen eat-in area. It felt neutral… but not personal. |
| | We reimagined the living room with intention and depth, introducing architectural interest through added crown molding and a rich, layered palette. The walls were enveloped in Sherwin Williams Aegean Teal, while the fireplace was finished in Sherwin Williams Rock Garden in a high gloss for contrast and drama. A stunning rug from Hasan’s anchored the space with glorious color, setting the tone for new lighting, a custom upholstered chair, thoughtful storage, and curated accessories. The result is moody, expressive, and deeply reflective of the family who gathers there. |
| | In contrast, the kitchen took a brighter, more tailored turn. We wrapped the walls in Phillip Jeffries Vinyl Solstice Silk in Cosmic Blue, creating a luminous backdrop that elevates the everyday. A custom banquette maximizes both space and connection, paired with aDovetail table and Rowe seating for warmth and durability.Two spaces, two distinct moods — one cohesive story. A home that finally feels like it belongs to the people living inside it. |

| Is Finishing a Basement Worth the Money? Real Estate Experts Weigh In |
| If there’s one thing almost every homeowner—or aspiring buyer—craves, it’s more space. A home office. A playroom. A guest suite. Or somewhere to put the treadmill you’ve been meaning to use.

| | | | | Located in the Upper Wyoming section of South Orange, with easy access to South Mountain Reservation and the neighborhood jitney to NYC trains, this home was renovated top to bottom in 2017. The exterior reflects classic Tudor architecture, while the interior offers the light-filled layout and practical flow of a Center Hall Colonial. This 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home spans four finished levels of living space. The main level includes a well-appointed eat-in kitchen with plenty of room for a breakfast table and a center island, formal living room with fireplace, formal dining room, powder room, den and sunroom. Upstairs, the primary suite provides a comfortable retreat, and the third floor functions well as a guest suite or private workspace. The finished lower level offers further options for recreation, fitness, or remote work. Central air ensures year-round comfort, and the attached garage adds everyday convenience. A spacious backyard with a stone patio provides outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. A comprehensive renovation, flexible layout, and desirable location all come together beautifully at 9 Harding Dr. |
