Room to grow in brooklyn

Creating a true garden escape was the goal for this family, undertaking an apartment renovation in Brooklyn Heights. After living in their home for several years and tackling a few projects here and there, they sought out a design team to help them rethink their spaces more holistically, both inside and outside. Liz helped them with the design of the terrace and created a seamless transition between their updated home and their new terrace. Their terrace becomes a new outdoor room in their house and provides them with space to relax, entertain and garden. And it’s become a favorite spot for the family to spend time in. The bright greens and yellows of the plantings pop against the black planters, move in the breeze and change with the seasons. During the design process, Liz tuned into some of the clients’ memories from growing up in California and selected plants for the terrace- like Mexican feather grass, Yuccas and Agaves- that would keep those West Coast connections going strong.

This terrace and home renovation is featured in Luxe Interiors + Design magazine’s May/June 2021 issue. You can link to the story HERE.
