Motherhood has changed the way I see everything, including design. Before I had kids, my approach was all about composition: the perfect balance of tone, texture, and proportion. Now, my design philosophy is still about beauty — but it’s also about life.

March is that beautiful in-between month — still cozy, but reaching for light. A little fresher. A little greener. A little more layered. Here’s what I’m loving right now.

Designing with kids in mind doesn’t mean compromising on style. It means creating a home that works hard — one that feels calm, elevated, and authentic to the adults who live there, while still supporting the joyful chaos of everyday family life.

At Style & Space Interiors, I always say: good design isn’t precious, it’s intentional.

Every project I take on begins the same way: with listening.

The first step is always meeting with the client to understand their needs, priorities, and how they live. I want to know what’s working, what isn’t, and what matters most to them. This early conversation sets the tone for everything that follows.

I’ve designed for families with kids and pets for years. I talk often about livability, durability, and real life. But there is something about living with a puppy in real time—mid-accident, paper towels in hand—that gives you a whole new level of empathy.

At this point in winter, I don’t need to explain why I’m counting down the days to Palm Beach. The gray skies, heavy coats, and short days start to wear on me this time of year, and I find myself craving warmth, color, and that unmistakable feeling of ease that comes with being somewhere sun-drenched. Palm Beach feels like exactly the reset I need.

February always feels like a funny in-between month—cold, gray, but full of little sparks of inspiration. Valentine’s Day sneaks in, winter fatigue is real, and I find myself craving things that feel soft, joyful, and a little indulgent. These are the pieces, patterns, and ideas I’m loving right now—and honestly, using a lot in my work and life.

When clients ask what truly elevates a home from beautiful to exceptional, my answer is always the same: the details. Custom materials—especially tile—have the power to transform a space, but only when they’re designed and installed with intention.

As a designer, ski lodges hit all of my senses. And this winter, staying at Urban Cowboy Lodge, I felt that familiar spark—the one that reminds me why certain spaces feel timeless, comforting, and quietly magical.

There’s nothing like a Hamptons day to make a project move.

When I head out to Southampton, I bundle as much as possible—measurements, walkthroughs, deliveries, wallpaper progress, window treatments—so we can turn decisions into momentum.

The beginning of a new year always brings a sense of clarity and intention.

It’s a natural pause point—a moment to reflect on what’s working, refine our processes, and set thoughtful goals for the months ahead. At Style and Space, January is about laying a strong foundation so every project we touch feels organized, inspired, and well supported.

January is one of my favorite design months: the holidays have settled, light shifts subtly, and I find myself drawn to items that feel grounding, cozy, and beautifully crafted.

Here are the pieces I’m loving as we step into 2026.

As the temperature dips and the days shorten, layering becomes an art form—not only in your wardrobe but throughout your home. The best spaces (and outfits) for fall and winter feel collected, textured, and intentional.

Layering effectively is about adding depth and warmth without creating clutter or chaos. Here’s how to do it well.

When I started designing homes, I believed good design was all about control — a perfectly balanced palette, a tidy vignette, every pillow fluffed just so. Then I had kids. And everything — the schedule, the priorities, the floor plan — changed.

What surprised me most wasn’t how much my kids challenged my sense of order, but how much they taught me about design. They gave me a new way to see what home really means.

Here’s what I’ve learned from them.

December has always held a special kind of sparkle for me — maybe because it’s my birthday month, or maybe because Christmas season brings out the most joyful, cozy, slightly indulgent version of me.

This month’s favorites are a mix of festive décor, entertaining essentials, and a couple “treat yourself” treasures that embody everything I love about December.

As the holidays approach, our homes start to hum with energy — twinkle lights, gift wrap, and that familiar mix of excitement and chaos that comes with little ones counting down the days.

Prepping the playroom isn’t just about finding storage — it’s about creating space for joy, imagination, and a bit of calm amid the holiday magic.

Here’s how I approach it each season:

As the days grow shorter and the calendar fills with celebrations, our homes become the stage for gathering, reconnecting, and creating new memories. Preparing your home for guests—and for the holidays themselves—isn’t about perfection. It’s about hospitality, comfort, and those subtle details that make people feel immediately at ease.

Here’s how to thoughtfully ready your home for the season ahead.

Thanksgiving is a mood as much as a meal. Your table should welcome people to linger—beautiful, unfussy, and quietly luxurious. Here’s our go-to guide for setting a polished, personal table without the stress.

Short days, long dinners, and a table that begs for one more story—November is my permission slip to lean into texture, glow, and a touch of tradition. Here’s what I’m loving right now and how I’m using each piece.

If you’ve ever hesitated to buy a light-colored sofa because of kids, pets, or everyday spills, you’re not alone. This is where performance fabrics come in. They’ve completely changed the way I approach design—offering beauty and practicality so you don’t have to choose between style and durability.
