“HGTV and Me” by Lyn Peterson

Wednesday, 15 April 2020 by 4ngd2

No one can deny the popularity of home renovation shows. HGTV, first launched in 1994, is one of the mostwatched cable channels, and the DIY Network, TLC, and Bravo, all of which also air home reno shows, are not far behind. In fact, with renovation projects at an all-time high, TV Land impacts not only

“The Flipside” by Lyn Peterson

Wednesday, 01 April 2020 by 4ngd2

I’ve always been a flipper. Not a mad crazy flipper but a serial monogamist flipper. One house methodically after another. And I have made money on every flip— sometimes good money, sometimes not so much. Flipping is time consuming, labor intensive, and fraught with drama. Why, you might then ask, do I do it? Because

“It’s a (Decorating) Thing” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 22 October 2019 by 4ngd2

I was on a call with my millennial-influencer son when he referenced some trend or another. I asked for clarification, and my son simply said, “It’s a thing.” To which I added: pretty much everything is these days—a thing, that is. We’ve taken to identifying a staggering array of trends, events, memes, products and lifestyle

“Wood You Believe” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 02 July 2019 by 4ngd2

When I first bought a home, the floors were what the wood floors were—skinny, brown oak strips. That was it. And I never thought twice about changing it up. It wasn’t until I was invited to participate in the prestigious Kips Bay Designer Showhouse that I was circuitously exposed to other flooring options. (How, you

“Winter Pick-Me-Ups” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 12 March 2019 by 4ngd2

It’s winter. It’s interminable. It’s the kind of weather that makes me not want to leave the house, specifically the fireside. Nor do I want to be too far from the remote. All of that whining, due I am sure, to a shortage of Vitamin D; the lack of daylight hours is leaving me bereft.

“Commitment Issues” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 26 February 2019 by 4ngd2

We live in a lovely spot—as the French would say, endroit—but the truth is, many of our Westchester homes are old-ish, built in the post WW II boom or prior to. Kitchens are isolated and oft decrepit. Living rooms are not for the living. Need I say more? My customers are realizing that the costs

“Cheers to a Stylish 2019” by Lyn Peterson

Wednesday, 13 February 2019 by 4ngd2

As the new year approaches we all face the ritual of resolutions, personal and professional. In the interest of an improve 2019, here are my favorite, if somewhat random, mantras and bon mots to make your design life chicer, or at the very least easier. THE REAL PET SMART. Ideally, the dog should match the

“Market Day” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 04 December 2018 by 4ngd2

Twice yearly, like lemmings, we descend on High Point, North Carolina for the biannual furniture market; we being furniture retailers, e-tailers, designers, architects, sales reps and furniture showrooms. The population of this once-populous town, decimated by offshore production, virtually doubles, swelling from 100,000 to almost 200,000. It’s a real scene. We’re all sporting our market

“The Big Refresh” by Lyn Peterson

Thursday, 08 November 2018 by 4ngd2

I know, I know. It seems counterintuitive. This is the time of year I should be layering up for fall—adding cozy throws and comfy pillows. But this year, somehow, I find I am stripping away. Well, maybe not so much actual removing but rather tidying, organizing, collating, editing, refreshing. The three grey urns that rested

“Crushing on My Clients” by Lyn Peterson

Tuesday, 16 October 2018 by 4ngd2

I have the best clients. Smart, resourceful, and curious. Of course, I’m happy to guide, edit and inspire the design, but I also love when a customer steers her own course. The best relationships are symbiotic. We educate one another. My clients teach me how we live today—how we want to live, how we need
