Our client aimed to refresh their summer home without any extensive renovations or lengthy construction plans in a way that complements its seasonal use and represents their client’s own ever-evolving personal style.

A welcoming conversation area was added to the front-of-house bar as a casual space for hosting friends and family alike.

A banquette was outfitted near the kitchen and living room to provide additional seating and lounging space for morning and daytime activities. 

What was once dark and uninviting dining room walls were refinished with metallic grasscloth wallpaper to enliven the space. The refurbished walls also maximize natural daylight. A rustic, oversized teak table was placed as a finishing touch to ground the room of this otherwise formal space. 

The primary bedroom was redecorated to complement the adjoining room, which we previously designed as a homage to a Moroccan sitting room — a tall bed frame to enhance the regal yet calming atmosphere of the bedroom as a whole. 

The office, which was previously a guest room, was completely refinished to accommodate the work-from-home lifestyle of the homeowners. 

The guest rooms throughout the house were also reworked and updated to greet guests with comfort and contemporary sophistication.

Valerie Goldin-Remm

Founder & Principal Designer

Valerie believes that a home should do more than just look beautiful; it should nourish the soul. Guided by the principle that our surroundings directly influence our well-being, she focuses on creating environments that support the daily lives and mindsets of those within them. Her approach relies on observing how people move through their world, ensuring each design supports their natural rhythms and habits.

Before co-founding Atelier CV, Valerie spent a decade as an international model collaborating with global luxury brands. This period of extensive travel and immersion in the fashion industry sharpened her eye for craftsmanship, proportion, and how light and texture shape a room’s atmosphere. She integrated these perspectives into her design practice after completing her studies at the New York School of Interior Design.

By focusing on the relationship between a space and its inhabitants, Valerie creates interiors that feel both current and enduring. Her work is defined by an intentionality that transforms a residence into a sanctuary so that every room is a genuine reflection of how one wants to live.
