A large 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath home in New York City’s High Line area exhibits artisanal, custom furnishings throughout, creating a Mid-Century Modern look to the space. Also inspired by nature, we incorporated warm sunset hues of orange, burgundy, and red throughout the living area and tranquil blue, navy, and grey in the bedrooms. Stunning woodwork, unique artwork, and exquisite lighting can be found throughout this home, making every detail in this home add a special and customized look. The bathrooms showcase gorgeous marble walls which contrast with the dark chevron floor tiles, gold finishes, and espresso woods. Project Location: New York City. Project designed by interior design firm, Betty Wasserman Art & Interiors. From their Chelsea base, they serve clients in Manhattan and throughout New York City, as well as across the tri-state area and in The Hamptons.

A good year for grapes in Colorado. Picture taken in mid July 2016. A relatively mild winter and cooler than usual Spring have helped to bring a bumper crop of grapes. The arbor serves as a cool respite in the summer and the bonus of fresh organic grapes in early fall.

Built in BBQ with flagstone counter top. 3 burner unit with sear burner in rear and dual side burner. Under unit storage with (2) drawers and open cabinet. Cedar lattice and pergola over for privacy

The flower and mulch beds include evergreen plants, bark mulch ground cover, and vibrant colored flowers.

Northern Liberties Gem- Dyed Concrete to a grey color. We also used an acid to stain and discolor the newly poured concrete. After that we impregnated salt to eat into the concrete to create small holes. As a unique touch we embedded large nails into the concrete and used acid to create shadows of the nail marks into the concrete. The deck was built as a landing area stepping out of the door. In the rear of the yard, steel was mounted vertically to accept the grid and then filled with river rock. Steel trim was installed to the concrete to create the planter areas that border the concrete. Bamboo, trees, shrubs, and flowers were newly planted. The before pics show the previous yard condition. The yard was transformed into a stunning Asian themed work of art. Everything was executed perfectly by the installers who worked on this site. This customer now has a custom one of a kind backyard in Philadelphia, PA.

Arched Cedar Arbor defining spaces on patio. Lovely red climbing roses planted to cover arbor.

These Custom Trellises were created as the focal point for our client’s revamped outdoor living space, the Courtyard Oasis. They were designed to make a statement all their own during the dormant winter months, and to sustain and emphasize the expanding growth of vines during the summer months. The wood frame is oil rubbed teak and the wire mesh is a combination of stainless steel and aluminum. The stone inserts are removable and can be changed and swapped seasonally or along with furniture upgrades or changes in personal taste. All of the materials were selected for their look and feel, as well as their durability in outdoor climates to ensure beauty and enjoyment for years to come.
