Turning a blank space into an inviting lounge

I was so honored to be chosen to participate in the first Hamptons Contemporary Home Design & Décor Show held in New York’s famed Hamptons on Long Island. Located in a 40,000-square-foot tented space, this project required not only creativity but speed.

To achieve this transformation within a few days, we arranged to have our custom flooring installed prior to our arrival. The morning that we began work, our wall paper installer hung the patterned, plaster-like wallpaper and then painted it a vibrant glossy fuchsia. Next, we unpacked all the furnishings we brought with us, laying rugs, placing furniture, hanging wall fixtures, and installing a TV to give the space a pulled-together feeling. We finished off the room with accessories, some of which we gathered from local shops. We nailed the deadline, beautifully.
