Art Deco Library [Full residential design] | Manhasset, NY

One of our most prized designs - we are head over heels with this eclectic library. With Carte Blanche at hand from our trusty adventurous client, we went full speed ahead with our vision to bring to life a hidden gem within the heart of this historic Manhasset home. We started with brown stained walls and ceiling, and needless to say this room felt dark and uninviting. Daring to throw a bold color on the walls, but as the eye wonders up, the true adventure takes over within the mystical landscapes of the wallpaper.

The rest of the room was pulled together around the wallpaper, creating a symphony of colors and textures in a cheerful dance around the room. The closet now converted to a wet bar, is a gem within a gem, giving this “library” a new purpose in life.

The walls are adorned with oversized statement sconces, the gold mirror and a pair of vintage metal collage pieces. The last piece of this puzzle was discovered in the client’s basement. A painting his grandfather created years ago from his favorite wine bottle. It is like this painting was made for this room, and now it is complete. Client and designer could not be more ecstatic by the results. In fact, we cheers in this room on occasion!

Client Feedback:

Stevi helped my wife and I design a library, master bedroom and kids bedroom. All three rooms came out stunning and beyond anything we had imagined for the spaces. This was particularly true for the library where we told Stevi to “go wild” with her imagination and design. Every person that’s ever seen it is in love with the room. It really is a show stopper.

 
Stevi has a very thorough process. After listening to our vision and getting a sense of our taste she presented the rooms with numerous options for each piece. From there we worked towards the final design. Stevi is now in the process of helping us design our entire first floor!
