Project Brooklyn was designed as a trendy yet minimalistic apartment, simplicity woven into a modern perspective. What was refreshing about the project was that it was a blend of different textures and materials from diverse store sources but totally coordinated. The mid century West Elm dining set was a perfect fit with the tan leather sofa from Macy.
So was the Crate and Barrel bedlinen with linen curtains from Ikea. The Crate and Barrel lamps added just the right elegance to the decor. Rugs in all the rooms made for a warm and cozy look, while emphasizing the oak floor.
The accent cushions accessories were sourced from Crate and Barrel, West Elm, World Market for perfect harmony. All in all, it was a perfect contemporary fusion of grace and style.

"Amazing work done for us. Vandana was able to capture the essence of what we wanted in her work so well. The work was done remotely in India without having a look at the actual space. All she had was the plan. Everything fell into place so beautifully. Thank you!!"
