Do You Like The Lighter Wood Finishes?


I love the lighter paneling.
I think it makes for a cozy room,
without feeling heavy or oppressive.
And look how the light wood walls 
allow the darker furniture to shine!!

Have a nice Friday!

J.L. Is My Dearest Client

He is Italian.
He wanted his home to feel like tuscany.
I did my best working with the architecture of his home.
These are just a few shots of the living room,
the dining room and the study where he keeps museum quality books.
This man is no less than fascinating,



This is his precious study where all his worldly possessions are kept
on the book shelves and displayed on a few surfaces. 



I absolutely love the study.


What do you think so far.......

If Life Gives You a Lemon, Know then How to Make a Lemonade


Focus on THE JUICE

Having made the effort to recognize the 'juices' - the opportunities, it helps to keep yourself focused on them rather than the negative effects until you are ready to start the actual process of making the lemonade. This is important for two reasons. Firstly, it helps you cope with the problem by minimizing its negative impact on your state of mind and secondly it enthuses the mind and prepares it to turn the potential opportunities into real. In other words, when you focus on the 'juice', the problem is no more a problem. It becomes a situation with opportunities. The moment you begin to realize this, that's when you are ready to make the lemonade.

Apply twist of 
creativity and imagination to squeeze 
the juice
Now to the actual process of squeezing the juice out of the lemon. Focus on the potential opportunities hidden within the situation and start thinking about how can you make them real. In other words how to make the lemonade. Creativity and imagination are to real life problems what a citrus juicer is to the lemon. Use them to think of all types of ways in which you could realize the potential - conventional ways, non-conventional ways, ways that are absurd, not so absurd, wild, even those that seem impossible and outright outrageous! Just remind yourself at the moment - you are only thinking and coming up with ideas - not actually taking action or doing. Therefore at this stage, do not put any barriers on your thinking process by limiting yourself to think of only do-able ways and also try not to pass any judgment on the ideas that you come up with at this stage. That's what thinking creatively and using your imagination is all about. Once you have given a free-range thinking - you will most certainly be able to see a way or combination of ways in which you can turn the potential opportunity into reality. And when that happens you will realize the truth about problems being blessing in disguise.

Have A Wonderful Monday

Remember 9 -11 / Sunday 2011


I was watching it on the news.
I saw the whole thing.
My heart was crushed through and through.
I knew instantly ....
it was an act orf war.


I was still in the 
"i don't believe this " stage.


Then I saw the second plane use it self as a bomb.
It was too much for me to take in.
I was frightened and when I would talk to people on the street....
they absolutely that I was over reacting.....{10 am }
but by 5pm
the world had gone creazier than me.
go figure!!! 


I believe we will never be the same as a country.
And in-spite of all these tragedies....
for a while there 
it brought us all as Americans together.
We were unified. It didn't matter if you were  democratic or a republican.
We Were One Nation All On The Same Side.

What do you think?

About Renée Finberg

I have been in this business since the age of 22.

I love what I do and cannot imagine my life without Design.

Design Challenges are great.

And because of those challenges

I have imported fine antique pieces from Paris,

Designed and Manufactured Furniture,

Created Fantastic Window Treatments,

And solved all kinds of spatial & architectural issues

With my unique style.

If I can't find it, I create it.

My rooms would make excellent movie sets.

I am a visual, tactile and audio sensitive individual.

Creating is what I live for, not math, not spelling, not science.

Just Great Design.

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
