I designed the master bedroom suite of the Aspire Design and Home Show House in Bernardsville, New Jersey.
Because the show house partner was the Connie Dwyer Foundation, I designed the space for my mother, who is a breast cancer survivor. I wanted the space to be a place of respite for anyone who would have to experience recovery.

THE VALERIE FUND
SHOW HOUSE
I chose the servants hallway & was tasked by my designer friend to also do the laundry room. I wanted to pay homage to my family who have worked in folks homes. I started with a strong happy color, layered art work on top, allowing the art to be visceral. In the laundry room, I added fun wallpaper with a dark molding outfitted with a bar where there would have been laundry supplies.

MODERN
BACHELOR PAD
This newly single bachelor wanted an adult space to entertain friends & family; as well as a space for him to unwind from a busy day in the office.
I immediately wanted to wrap this space in wallpaper accented with blue trim. A super textural rug was layered in to add to the warmth of fabric & leather furnishings.

TUXEDO PARK POWDER ROOM
This powder room renovation was deconstructed from a gentleman's tweed suit.
Faux croc wallpaper, sconces outfitted with custom lampshades & silver accents tops off this powder room.
