That’s a Wrap: introducing our latest Park Avenue project
Well, here at last. Many of you will know this particular client personally (let's just say it's close to home). And if any of you know my artist-turned-finance-guy husband, you know him to be opinionated in matters of art and design....
Bachelor Reset
This project's genesis was unequivocal: put politely, this newly-minted bachelor wanted a refresh to mark recent changes in his life. Inviting, sleek, and masculine-inspired: we got to work. It is old news at this point that products...
COVID-Fixing… (and BMD in the news!)
Raise your hand if you have recently made real changes to your home to accommodate the new life we are all living. (??? OK I see a a small handful...) OK, now raise your hand if you're thinking about it, but on top of your current...
And, we’re back.
Hello, everyone! Well, what a year it has been. I miss everyone's faces, especially the parts (like people's mouths and noses) that no one has seen in 11 months. At BMD, we completed 4 large projects on the heels of COVID - certainly...
New Year, New Look: introducing our latest project
Hello, 2020... and... we are FINALLY unveiling ALL the photos from our NYC Upper East Side project, completed last year. You may have seen snippets of this home from the October 2019 "Rising Star" article published in New York...
Brooke named a 2019 “Rising Star” by NYC&G Magazine
I am so incredibly excited to share the news with you that I was named a "Rising Star" of interior design by New York Cottages & Gardens magazine. On newsstands now in the October issue! The article details my background and the...
The Hamptons Edit
Drum roll please. BMD’s long-awaited Sag Harbor project is finally complete and photographed, and as the summer begins to wane, I am so excited to share it with you. This home had all the makings of a low budget spec house, but all...
The Practice of Choice
I find myself bombarded by choices these days. The customization of life today is an amazing thing, and yet, it is filled with so many options that it can be exhausting to define one’s life in such crystallized detail. Be it which kind...
Getting to the Finish Line
There’s nothing more difficult than getting to the finish line of a project. Whether you’re trying to figure out the last piece of furniture you’ve been stuck on, decide on art, place some accessories, or fine tune your organizatio...
New Life, New Beauty, and Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! It’s been a while… and a baby… since I last wrote. As the season grows crisp and we nestle in for the holidays, our homes and our surroundings grow ever more important to us. A quick update on BMD and what has...
BMD Celebrates 5 Years
March 2018 marked the 5-year anniversary of Brooke Moorhead Design. While I cannot quite believe how quickly it went, it also feels like a good chunk of time, and certainly a major personal and professional milestone. Many of you know...
Connecticut Whimsy
I’m very excited to share with you the official “unveiling” of the photos of this Greenwich, Connecticut project we completed early last year. The outcome was unlike any project I’ve done in the past, and it was inspiring to have a...
BMD in the News – TOWN Residential
Special Edition – BMD In the News I was honored to be featured on TOWN Residential’s website this month, answering questions posed by the Pruszko-Zahova team about my work, style and giving a few tricks of the trade. Click here to read...
New Year, New Art?
Happy New Year! Art can make or break a space. It is intimately linked with the success of the design of an interior, but it is also something so separate, so personal, that it becomes a thing of itself. So where do we start with art? Wh...
Encore!
Encore, Tribeca It’s the most wonderful thing to have longtime clients. I was beyond thrilled to have the opportunity this year to help past clients make some alterations to their home, which I had originally helped them complete in 20...
Renovation Watch
It’s happening: my family and I are decamping from the once uber-cool TriBeCa neighborhood to to the Upper East Side. But not before we complete a gut renovation… and for you New Yorkers, you know first hand, or have at least heard o...
Street Style
Interior Sophisticate, the Fashion Issue. OK, yes, I am aware of the very real possibility of embarrassing myself greatly with the above picture/ confession of what really happens when packing for a trip/ choosing outfits. Am I really go...
Curating the Clutter
I feel best in a space when it has a sense of calm: a serene, peaceful feeling. No surprise, then, that this “serene” feeling evaporates when little wonders grace us, like mismatched toddler’s toys on the floor, sports equipment un...
Transformations
In the season of renewal… As we begin to reflect on the year I take a look back at some of the most dramatic transformations of 2016. Hampton Classic This winter I gave a Hamptons home a face lift. The living room required only some pa...
August Press Mentions
I was honored to be mentioned twice in Dering Hall editorials this August. “10 Designers Share Their Go-To Color Choices” from August 28, 2016: Read the full story here: https://deringhall.com/daily-features/contributors/dering-hall/...
Quality Check
Quality informs 100% of my decisions as an interior designer. The level of quality in home furnishings is the single most important aspect that makes a home stand out as something defining and beautiful. But what is “quality”? How can yo...
Appliances
Choosing appliances for a remodel or a new build can be a difficult and detailed task. Which brands, features, styles, finishes, and configurations to choose are all questions that need to be considered, not to mention compatibility with...
Paint and Color – February Refresh
2016 promises exciting things, but February can be cold and bleak. Color can make a huge impact, and paint or color tweaks to furniture or other design elements make a big difference without a huge expense or major commitment. Example 1:...
West Village Light
This summer, I worked with clients to “refresh” their West Village family home. The aim was to make it feel fresher and more functional. The update included a one-month all-hands-on-deck construction project to integrate better lighting,...
The Jewel Box Bath
A beautiful bathroom is one of the most sought-after spaces in a home. No wonder, then, that so many of my clients' first wish is to renovate their bathrooms. Case in point: the bathroom featured here that I designed for a client on...
Construction!
Construction is happening everywhere in NYC (and has been for some time now). It seems that I cannot cross the street without seeing a new building going up to my right or to my left. If not purchasing something brand new, many New...
