Sands Point dream home renovation Before & After
When one of our wonderful repeat clients called and said they just bought this 1950’s mid-century modern house, we were very excited to get started on the gut renovation. This beautiful home is located on 2 acres of land in The Heart of Sands Point. Sitting high on a hill overlooking the Long Island Sound, there are water views from every room of this 4 bedroom, 5 bath retreat.
We came up with a new, 21st century modern luxurious architectural plan, updating every room in the house and worked to make it a forever home with smart technology, energy efficiency, and zen beauty. We also incorporated a new landscaping plan and a beautiful infinity pool. What we never expected was building this home in the middle of a pandemic, with all kinds of shutdowns and delays.
After three and a half long years these are the before and photos of this stunning new home. We may have to wait a couple of more years until all the interior decorating is finalized. For now, enjoy these photos showcasing all of our design choices for flooring, moldings, fireplaces, bathrooms, primary closets, and an amazing chef’s kitchen. As they say… “it’s all in the details!”
Gramercy NYC Before & After
This light and airy new construction in Gramercy with 14’ ceilings and amazing views of the city was designed for a fun family of four. The design concept from the very beginning was to make this apartment in the sky a very colorful and happy place for all. After the long pause of Covid and leaving the city for the Hamptons, coming back to this happy place was just what this family needed!

We were able to create an interior design scheme that incorporates some of Evelyn’s favorite things - color, pattern, texture, and layering. The result is a condo in the sky that turned out so lovely! It is light filled, fun, airy and happy. And our client loves it!
FAMILY CHIC IN CHELSEA Before & After
NYC Interior Designer Evelyn Benatar transformed the bland living spaces of a very special Chelsea apartment into a chic home designed for dynamic family living! In the living and dining room, it all started with a bold floral wallpaper. From there a glamorous yet livable, family friendly space was created for our clients, a fabulous family of four. This Manhattan apartment’s architecture was unusual because the elevator opens directly into the living space. Designing an welcoming entry with a wow factor was a goal from the beginning. An abstract painting titled “Feel the Love'“ set the tone, while suede wallcovering, a bespoke bench, and custom mirror mosaic wall anchored the space.
CHELSEA MERCANTILE BUILDING INTERIOR DESIGN Before & After
This beautiful apartment in NYC was transformed over a period of a few years. The idea was to give this family a warm yet glamorous home to entertain in. They wanted a cool downtown vibe utilizing color and pattern. Later, when another baby was on the way, we transformed a walk in closet into a nursery and designed custom built-ins for storage in the master bedroom.
A FAMILY OF BATHROOM RENOVATIONS Before & After
From thoroughly outdated to minimal, modern and elegant. A family home in Long Island now has three newly renovated baths that will stand the test of time. The luxe, modern powder room with a kiss of glamour was a joy to transform from the chevron tile floor to the custom dark gray floating vanity. In the kids’ baths, sophistication was the word of the day. The boys’ bathroom is now a testament to chic masculine style. The "totally out" girls’ bath went from drab and sad to stylishly fab!

Family Room FAVORITE
This room is a reminder that often a “problem” leads to a great design solution! Rather than move the existing off-center fireplace, which was not practical, I designed stylish custom built-ins that made it seem like it was always meant to be there.
