Think Café de Flore meets Studio 54 meets Velvet Lounge ...

Inspired by the herringbone marble floor, I chose to create a space reminiscent of a traditional Paris flat.

The French are masters for their ability to cleverly mix old with new, making an art form in their opulent yet comfortable living environments. My interpretation brings it stateside, proving that in this day and age, anyone can pull off the international style. The living room becomes truly livable with the use of cozy furniture and fabrics, all while providing ample room for entertaining or simply stretching out for a relaxing night at home. My "client" represents a growing demographic of consumers who are looking to combine luxury, elegance and sophistication with a little hipster cool thrown in for good measure
