Katie Rosenfeld Design

It is always fun to find a new designer or blog that you find inspirational.  As a fellow New Englander, I was very excited to find Katie Rosenfeld Design via her blog Bogle Street.  

Bogle Street, which I spent over an hour reading, is packed full of useful design information, expertise and tips.  On top of that, her designs are so inspirational.  They are classically inspired, but full of punch with colors and patterns.  I've posted a few of my favorite images above and below.  

Make sure you take a moment to check out her blog and portfolio.  You won't be disappointed!  

A Chic Brooklyn Heights Greek Revival!

  

I stumbled across this incredible Brooklyn Heights Greek Revival via CWB Architects.  This project entailed a complete structural and mechanical gut renovation of this four story, 3200 sq. ft. row house and extension.

The designer?  Jennifer Eisenstadt Design and Decoration, LLC.  Why have I not heard of her before?  Check out this incredibly chic home (I believe this might be her home.)

I am completely speechless....

Keep a look out for her use of modern and vintage light fixtures.  I believe this and the kitchen's fixture might be Lindsey Adelman's bubble light which I posted about here.  I am in love!

Pocket doors, brass fixtures, modern lighting, oh my!

For real? A leopard print runner!! Brilliantly done.

Black and white graphic wallpaper and mirrored furniture - I love it.  Do you notice the ruffle trim on the curtains?  Such a nice feminine detail.  And, the brass doorknobs?  I love the dark walls in the adjourning room.  I just wish I could see more of this bedroom.  

How chic!

The marble veining in the shower, the vanity's lucite legs, hexagonal floor and wall tiles and the brass hardware are all so wonderful!

I am so using balloon shades in our next house.  Remember this post?

So tastefully done.

Do you notice how glossy the trim is?

This is probably her office, no?  What an amazing space to work in!

And, just when you thought you were done with the surprises - she throws this into the mix!  Holy Cow!  She is incredible!  The mix of the chinoiserie wallpaper with the inlaid wooden chevron floor - crazy good!

I love the primary colors and the kilim rug!  

Oh my goodness!!  So amazing!

Okay, how incredible is this home?  I can tell you that I will be studying each and every one of these pictures for a long time.  I haven't felt this inspired in a while. 

Can some magazine publish her space so I can get all the sources, please??

Jennifer Eisenstadt is my new hero!

Current Crush: Modern Lighting

I hope everyone had a safe and relaxing labor day weekend!  These days I find myself crushing on traditional interiors layered with modern light fixtures.  I think it adds the perfect amount of juxtaposition and is a great way to infuse a mix of styles.

Here is an example of one of Lindsey Adelman's bubble light fixtures.  I love the geometrical shapes and the contrast it creates in this traditional entry way.  It is so unexpected which I love.  On a side note, I would love to see a persian rug in this entry way!

Another example of Lindsey's fixture used in Carrie and Big's apartment in the movie, Sex in the City 2.  I really like the idea of using something unexpected like this in the entry way to tell visitors they're in for a real treat when they come into your home.  

Here is a shot of Laura Day's living room in her Madison Avenue apartment.  I love her floor lamp to the left of the traditional english roll arm sofa.  It keeps things interesting and edgy.  

Look closely, but I like how Ashley Putman used a modern DWR fixture in her entry way which is surrounded by such classical and timeless pieces.  

In one of my favorite kitchens, Sasha Seymour uses a retro light fixture above the fireplace which looks amazing with the brass hardware.  She got her light from zig zag - mod furnishings!  Awesome retroesque lighting at affordable prices!

So, do you like this look?  Or is it just me?
