Denville | Basement

This incredible basement was created with family and colder temperatures in mind. The family wanted a place to retreat in the winter with a laid back, natural, California coastal vibe; completely different than the rest of their elegant home. Their wish for four defined spaces (living, dining, bar, and games) was achieved with unique and custom pieces all around. The large banquette was custom made to fit the niche and maximizes the seating around the large 90” table. The light fixture above the table adds a really industrial feel to the area. If that isn’t enough seating for snacking, the bar is large with plenty more seating and counter space.
There is so much space to lounge on the large sectional, comfy chairs by the fireplace, or at the custom table behind the sofa which was made by local iron and woodworkers. It even includes an electric hookup for charging phones and computers. 
In the bathroom, we used vinyl wallpaper that is textured to look like wood. There are many other elements, like the faux painted wood barndoors and reclaimed beams and shelving that pull the entire space together cohesively and make it a place where everyone wants to hang out. 


Morris Plains | Bold and Colorful Family Room

Do you ever see photos of décor that stops you in your tracks? This project is full of those moments. The clients are from England and wanted to bring some life and color into their bland 1970s home in New Jersey. They have two children, work from home full-time, and are minimalists so it was important to keep things practical while still bringing the spunk to satisfy their love of bright jewel tones. 

The design challenges here included thinking outside the box and taking risk with color. We also had a small entranceway which is adjacent to the living room where we wanted to make a big impact. This was achieved by using a bold wallpaper on the oddly shaped wall by the stairs. The colors coordinated perfectly with the living room!

But the real showstopper here is the custom velvet sofa. The clients are huge fans of velvet so mixing that with their love of bold colors, we were able to create something totally fit for their style and family. 


Mountain Lakes | Kitchen Reno, Laundry, Bath, and Dining Updates

These empty-nesters were unhappy with their dysfunctional kitchen and had a big vision for the changes. Creating an open floorplan with sightlines and a highly functional/beautiful kitchen with lots of island seating was the priority. We designed custom low-back swivel stools so that they weren’t visible over the counter. The counter stools and chairs around the round table were sight-unseen so the clients really had to trust that these were going to come together and work beautifully in their space… and they did! We went with a classic white cabinet and warmer tones in the stools and the gorgeous quartzite countertops.
 
Leading into the dining room, the real showstopper here is the traditional dining table which we had refinished and then added mid-century modern chairs, beautiful lighting, and textured wallpaper to give new life to this room. 
In the laundry room a bench, broom closet, and plenty of storage for organization were key. The fun tile floors carry into the bathroom where we used a wallpaper full of big, happy florals. 

The old fireplace was clunky and non-functional. We added a bar to create a nicer flow for entertaining, storage, and display shelves with lighting. The swivels were done in a custom fabric to compliment the existing sofa while tying in the khaki, rust and olive green colors the client loves. 

This home will be enjoyed by the client’s family for years to come!

Mountain Lakes | Master Bedroom & Living Loft

We worked with this client on several different areas of the home while using many existing elements to create family and dog friendly spaces. We did custom window treatments throughout and also added in custom pillows and commissioned art. The rug in the family room was a large custom size to accentuate the swirled design.

The goal in the master bedroom was to create a spa-like retreat overlooking the lake while using the existing furniture and bedding. We chose all new light fixtures without moving the existing wiring. We always love when everyone gets involved in the design and it was no exception when the husband gave the inspiration for the lighting hanging over the nightstands. So unique! We painted the wall behind the bed for some interest in the client’s favorite color, blue, and the rug was custom cut from carpet for the room. The swivel chairs by the window create the perfect place to sit and enjoy the view out the large bedroom windows. 

The guest bathroom was outfitted with a custom roman shade to compliment the existing colors. 


Mountain Lakes Kitchen & Dining

This beautiful kitchen was created with family in mind. Our clients have young children so it was important that this design incorporate beauty and comfort as well as durability for years to come. The sleek and clean white cabinets and counters plus the pop of navy in the island and bar area are accented beautifully with brass hardware and fixtures.

Morris Plains | Rustic Elegance Family Room

This project started with the client needing help choosing paint colors and accessories and ended up with a full fireplace makeover in their open concept living area with 24’ ceilings. The real challenge here was helping the client, who didn’t want to change the existing fireplace, see the impact of adding molding and stone all the way to the ceiling in the two-story family room. 

This young family with two young kids has no time for decorating. Their style is calming and simple with rustic vibes. Rustic elegance, if you will. We achieved the final look by using performance fabrics, rustic shelving and tables, and adding a huge light fixture to adorn the two-story family room where entertaining is key. The husband was very specific about the TV placement and the design of the media console. With the chaise positioned perfectly for comfortable TV viewing and the help of a local woodworker to create the perfect custom TV console, the clients are ready to host in their beautifully designed space.

I couldn’t be more happy with the project, my house looks like it could be featured in a Kinfolk magazine. I expressed my wishes of having a clean, natural interior aesthetic and they truly delivered – the natural light in my newly designed home is to die for.

I had the pleasure of working with Alice on redecorating my childhood home that hadn’t been touched up since I was a teen in the 80’s. I knew it needed a huge refresh aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I had a consultation with Alice about my hazy ideas and she was able to understand my tastes and needs after just one chat! The whole design process was so streamlined and thorough that my fears of things going awry totally vanished after the first few meetings. She walked me through every step of the process, from sharing sketches and moodboards to purchasing the final pieces of furniture and decoration. Working with Alice at Atelier Cohen has got to be my greatest investment, I highly recommend their services.
