23Monsey Residential Remodel
Monsey, NY · Residential Interior · 2025

A full interior remodel of a Monsey residence. The vaulted living room pairs sage-green walls with a cast-stone fireplace, a low platform sofa, and a black grand piano nestled beside floating oak shelves. An open dining hall extends the palette with a long white table beneath a linear crystal chandelier, sculptural mirrors above a brass-banded credenza, and sightlines back to the hearth. The kitchen layers matte cream cabinetry against a veined green-marble backsplash and counters, opening to a breakfast nook of woven-leather chairs around a round oak table. A moody home office in deep olive anchors a dark walnut desk between twin iMac workstations and a wall of books, while the children's bedroom under a gabled ceiling sets twin upholstered beds against warm oak case goods, and the family bath finishes the program with vertical teal fluting, a fluted oak vanity, and a terrazzo floor flecked in green and stone.

A pale brick-and-stucco shaft is split by a charcoal central spine of cantilevered concrete balconies and floor-to-ceiling glazing, lifted on a dark metal-paneled base that frames the lobby entry beneath the building's signature 69 Hope mark — a quiet modern counterpoint to its low-rise industrial neighbors.

31 Spencer Street, Brooklyn · Workplace Interior · 2023

An office build for B&L Photo at 31 Spencer. The open workstation floor pairs light-oak benching desks into facing pods divided by woven grey acoustic screens and crisp white steel frames, set on a speckled terrazzo floor beneath an exposed industrial ceiling of ductwork and circular drum pendants — anchored by a sage-toned feature wall with a hexagonal moss installation and a typographic mural reading "Be the person you want to work with." A black-fluted spine wall carries a backlit PHOTO marquee into the café, where a curved oak-slat ceiling drops over a white-and-oak island ringed by terracotta stools, charcoal tile underfoot, and dark pendants above a wave-textured backsplash. Beyond an oak-batten screen, the lounge layers a black leather sectional and mustard armchairs against a graphic black-and-white pattern wall, a walnut media credenza, and a sun-flooded planted corner.

The open kitchen and dining hall layers a monolithic veined-marble waterfall island and rift-oak base cabinets against handleless cream tall storage and a marble backsplash, set on a wide-plank herringbone floor beneath linear magnetic track lighting and a row of black-and-white globe pendants — a brass linear chandelier marking the dining table beyond an arched opening to the sun-flooded living room.
