Entry Hall of Upper West Side Brownstone. The floor was designed in the traditional manner of a black and white marble checkerboard
In this kitchen the cabinetry was Ebonized. The glass light panels were custom designed and are backlit to provide the perfect light for preparing food.
A New York Upstate house addition. This library was added to the existing house using local timber, craftsmen and painted with zero VOC paint. I designed this during my recent partnership with MH Studio
The existing bathroom was dark and small and as the bathroom is at the front of the house it was not possible to add windows. By installing clerestory windows I was able to flood the room with light whilst maintaining complete privacy. I designed this bathroom during my recent partnership with MH Studio
The existing kitchen was split up by having too many doors and a very small window. By moving the window and closing a door I was able to create a space that felt open and functioned well. I designed this kitchen during my recent partnership with MH Studio.
By centering the window over the sink I was able to connect the client with his favorite part of his garden. This kitchen was designed during my recent partnership with MH Studio

These two pairs of reclaimed doors were hung on tracks to separate the dining area from the kitchen during the day.
All the detailing of this county house was replicated from the original house. Some of the craftsmen who worked on the renovation were the great grand children of the original craftsmen who helped build the original house.
