Celebrity Closets

I love a great walk-in closet... one where your shoes and hats have their own special place. Not only does it make getting ready in the morning easier, but it can be relaxing too!  Check out these fabulous custom celebrity closets...

A transitional living room with a romantic inspiration

I was driving through downtown West Palm Beach the other day and came across this building.


It inspired me to design a living room.  For this space, I wanted to incorporate the traditional and romantic motifs of the architecture, however with a modern twist that the pink, grey, and white lend themselves to.
