Idea Space Architecture + Design helps clients create inspiring architecture and interior environments.

Idea Space Architecture + Design helps to create inspiring architecture and interior environments. We work with innovative, bold and creative clients interested in a pleasurable and highly productive experience while designing and building their place of business, new home, investment property, country retreat or renovating their current co-op, condo or townhouse. Our clients are interested in exploring their design options to uncover the most comfortable environment in which to live and most profitable in which to work. Through a collaborative process with client, consultants, fabricators and builder, decisions that are artistic, highly functional and financially responsible are made to bring about successful solutions. As architects and interior designers we help our clients explore their creative ideas, the process of making a space and finally the experience of occupying that completed built environment.

This old brick Tudor home was lovingly restored both inside and out. In the new kitchen new window openings were created and old ones were sealed up meaning the new brick needed to match the antique brick that was original to the home, not an easy task!The new windows were carefully scaled and designed to match the proportions and aesthetic of the old steel casements. And that lovely lantern, damaged during a storm several years ago, was finally welded back together and now sits proudly above the door welcoming guests into the home. So glad we were able to capture the beauty of this majestic home during peak foliage season a few years back.

A beautiful balance of warmth, texture, and timeless details. 🤎

This kitchen was designed to feel both elevated and inviting, blending warm, creamy cabinetry with rich, natural wood accents and classic architectural details.

The handmade-look tile, open wood shelving, and dark wood beams add depth and character, while the thoughtful layout keeps everything as functional as it is beautiful.

It’s all in the details and in creating a space that feels just as good to live in as it looks.

Another addition moving along in South Orange. The existing deck and bump out was very poorly built and was not functional for this family. Keep an eye out for updates as we bring to life an incredible new kitchen, mudroom and powder room that will have some really special details.

We just wrapped up this full-scale basement and first-floor renovation. Building from the ground up meant tackling the heavy lifting first…adding a structural beam, new windows, and new plumbing before bringing the design vision to life.

Here is a look inside:

🎨 Vibrant Bathroom: Featuring a terracotta vanity paired with modern blue accents.

🎲 Family-Centric Storage: Integrated game night cabinets and a full walk-in pantry. Even a circular cutout to hideaway the litter bin. 🐈

🌳 Custom Millwork: A white oak vestibule framed by a barrel vault ceiling.

🍸 Dining & Serving: Built-in cabinetry topped with a sleek stone surface for seamless hosting.

Every detail balances everyday practical living with memorable aesthetic moments.

A roundup of some of our favorite powder rooms, each one a reminder that even the smallest spaces can make a lasting impression.

Powder rooms are the perfect opportunity to embrace a little more drama: a rich, saturated hue, an unexpected pattern, or a wallpaper that demands attention. These are the spaces where you can really create that jewel-box moment.

From dark and moody to light and luminous, which direction speaks to you?

Scenes from six different projects in the works. From design development, construction and finishing touches we’re with you. Transformations take skill, talent, time and patience and the investment is 💯 worth it when experiencing the end result. We’re loving how these projects are coming together.

Back to school and fall sports are in full swing, and there’s nothing like an organized mudroom to help keep it all together. 🍂

Because it’s the first space we see when we walk through the door, we’re all about making a mudroom beautiful, highly functional, and durable enough for everyday life.

Here, the tall cabinets provide plenty of hidden storage for sports gear, backpacks, and all the extras that come with busy days. Beneath the bench, a low-maintenance storage solution keeps shoes and even muddy rain boots neatly tucked away and ready for the next adventure.

A hardworking space doesn’t have to sacrifice style. 🤎

We almost forgot that it was Father’s Day with the near 20,000 steps yesterday adventuring around Rome. Thanks for sharing your stories, showing us your studio space (now a hotel) back when you were a student, and for being a good dad. Taking in all the frescoes, mosaics and travertine that this city has for us.
