Newlyweds in Kensington
A lovely couple came to us as the construction of their new home was nearing completion. At the time, they were living in a one bedroom apartment so they needed help furnishing a much larger home. Their style is a cozy, non-fussy California aesthetic that was translated into their new Philadelphia home through a layering of patterned rugs, warm mid-toned woods, matte black metals and accents of ocean blue.
The main level of the 4-story townhouse has an open floor plan. At the top of the stair the first space you see is the dining area, which has minimal furniture with warm wood tones that are complimented by a high-contrast white dining table surface and black chairs and console. The living room section to the left frames a cozy seating area in front of an angled fireplace. Custom window treatments finish off the space and provide visual privacy while still allowing natural light to filter through.

“There’s moments where I walk into a room in our house and I still can’t believe it’s ours. Shila was able to recognize and understand our style immediately. In the end, she made the entire process a breeze and helped us prioritize what needed to be done. My wife and I could not be happier with the finished product.”
