SEE THIS HOUSE: OVERARCHING DESIGN IN A NYC BROWNSTONE!

This is one of those posts where I’ll let the pictures do the talking. No story from me this time. No attempt at humor…just think I’ll be quiet (I can hear a collective sigh of relief from friends and I’m sure quite a few readers). Me…silent…yes…this time at least…perhaps awe inspired by this incredible design.

A New York City brownstone designed by elite architect Peter Pennoyer…a stunning and elegant home with curves in all the right places.

Replete with an array of archways – brilliant barrel vaulted ceilings, sensational arched doorways, rooms with rounded corners, an incredible vista of arcs that makes up a main hallway and a trio of striking floor to ceiling arch framed windows – this home is absolutely dazzling.

    Absolutely gorgeous! I’ve had the photo of the living room in my inspiration folder, but I don’t think I had ever seen the rest of this house – thanks!

    What a beautiful space, the herringbone floors and the graphic staircase are scrumptious.

    Thank you for all of your great comments. I love this house too.

    It is not for sale that I know of…and I’m sorry I do not know the exact color of the living room walls (you could print up a picture and take to your local paint shop to match).

    I have lots more from Peter Pennoyer Architects coming up. So stay tuned!!!

    The image with the archways and staircase just took my breath away. The lovely glow in the image is as if the gods are shining down. If only we could all live such lives..

Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account. From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛

A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
