Monica Fried Design works together with architecture firm Moji Stumer to create the minimal Old Westbury home. It is located in Long Island New York and the interior design is curated with a focus on forming a timelessly elegant ambiance. Fried selected the decor items very carefully, ensuring that the selected pieces were both stylish and practical at once, avoiding trends.
Functionality was a strong focus in the design process, to find items that meet the needs of a young family seamlessly. There is a strong neutral palette throughout the space, which is supported by wood and stone materials. This adds some depth and also works as a great canvas that serves as a backdrop for the client's art collection.
