Design Vignettes as “Special Sauce”: The Wms&Co. Loft in Downtown New York
“Design is at the root of everything we do,” write Allison and JP Williams. “To say it’s an obsession would not be overstating things: it has transformed our habits and our habitats.” The two met as graphic design students at RISD and went on to launch their own hugely successful design consultancy specializing in branding […]

Kitchen of the Week: A Modern Live/Work Kitchen for an Oakland Creative Couple
Designer Christina Zamora had 1,000 square feet to work with when she turned a circa 1920 converted schoolhouse loft in west Oakland, California, into a live/work HQ for herself, her wife and business partner Cathy Lo, and their two cats. She capitalized on 18-foot ceilings, exposed concrete walls, and a bank of steel loft windows to anchor […]
24-Hour Art: Sculptor Jeff Feld’s Live-Work Quarters and Gallery in a Converted NYC Warehouse
Architectural designer Lauren Lochry’s clients typically like to close a door or laptop and leave the world of work behind. Mixed-media artist Jeff Feld chooses to immerse himself in his profession. Feld discovered Lochry’s one-woman firm, Ridge House, on Remodelista and asked her to transform a 1,098-square-foot former warehouse in Queens, New York, into open-plan […]
On a Bustling Brooklyn Street, Above a Busy Restaurant, Quiet Tranquility Inside an Industrial Loft
Atlantic Avenue travels from the Brooklyn waterfront all the way to Jamaica, Queens. It’s a well-used thoroughfare, no matter where you find yourself on the 10-mile stretch. But its western-most section, the length that serves as the border between Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill, is relatively greener and more peaceful than the rest, even if […]
Before/After: A Low-Key, Bauhaus-Inspired Tribeca Loft by 2Michaels
In a sea of sameness when it comes to interiors, it’s refreshing to come across a project that doesn’t strive to be of this exact moment. When Joan and Jayne Michaels, the twin sisters behind design practice 2Michaels sent us one of their recent projects, it registered like a breath of fresh air, a palate cleanser. […]
Clay Service Cup
To create their Clay Service (2009), Lonny van Ryswyck and Nadine Sterk began digging up clay from different locations throughout the Netherlands. They then shaped and baked the clay to study the agricultural nuances of each region. “A bucket filled with earth is anonymous,” explains Sterk, “but the stories of the farmer who works the […]

The Height of Downtown: LA Designers Nickey Kehoe Apply Their Signature Glam to an NYC Loft
Luxe alert. Interior designers Todd Nickey and Amy Kehoe create fully detailed interiors that achieve that rare feat of feeling inspired rather than overly done. The two began their design partnership in NYC but, fittingly, founded their firm and home furnishings store, Nicky Kehoe, in LA: their work—and the new and vintage goods they sell—have […]
Steal This Look: An Organized Loft, Japanese Style
Makié Yahagi’s two-bedroom SoHo loft is akin to the charm-filled interiors of her nearby shop on Thompson Street, Makié. A cult favorite since its opening in 1999, Makié sells children’s clothing and home goods with a handmade feel. At home, Makié lives with her two now-teenage sons who occupy the main bedrooms; Makié makes her […]
Kitchen of the Week: A Pearl-Like Cook Space in Portland, OR
When we first posted on this soft-colored loft in Portland’s Pearl District, the comments poured in: “Great feeling.” “Lovely, simple cabinets.” “Beautiful overall, and the cat box bathroom solution is genius!” (a detail admired by a few readers). Today we’re taking a closer look at the kitchen, redone, in addition to the rest of the […]
Urban Quiet: A Redone Loft in a Former Biscuit Company Bakery
There’s nothing hard-edged or cold about this LA loft, housed in what was once the West Coast bakery of the National Biscuit Company (now known as Nabisco). The space belongs to designer Amanda Gunawan, who was born in Indonesia, raised in Singapore, and is a founding principal of OWIU Studio in LA. In other hands, […]
Scene Stealers: Moody Vignettes in the Brooklyn Loft of the Founders of Ridge House
Last month, Annie shared Brooklyn-based design firm Ridge House’s neo-Gothic restoration in Nebraska. Today, we’re admiring another project by founders Lauren Lochry and Jeff Gillway: the couple’s own Bushwick loft, a space they use as a workshop, showroom, and, of course, home base. Just as the site—its architecture, environment, location, and history—led the design on […]
Joan McNamara’s Industrial Chic Loft in LA
When Julie and I head to LA to check out the design scene and visit our favorite haunts, our inevitable first stop is Joan’s on Third, which you might describe as LA’s answer to Dean & Deluca. Over the years, we’ve gotten to know Joan (she’s a Remodelista reader, perusing our newsletter every day and calling […]
Revolution Road: A Ground-Breaking Kitchen in London
The National Trust has yet to come calling, but we wouldn’t be surprised if someday Alastair Hendy’s kitchen is declared a landmark. Located in the East End loft that he built in 1987, the celebrated chef, shop owner, and food photographer was among the early adopters of professional appliances and industrial detailing at home. Featured in […]
