Interior designer needed for moldings

Can anyone suggest a good interior designer to help us with moldings? We are almost complete with a gut reno and kept any details of the house that were salvageable but we need to pick out moldings and I am not sure on where to start. Any suggestions would be appreciated. We are looking for someone who has a lot of experience bringing brownstones back to life.

Hi Jane, We are in the process of renovating a Brownstone and we are ‘stuck’ on few issues (bathroom layouts – although we can’t do much because of plumbing lines at this stage- we would like to select best bathtub and vanities). Also we have questions regarding flooring (we want hard wood floor that matches the original floor that we were able to save)…. Do you have a website? can we get a consultation? how do you usually work? Thanks Maysaa

Remodeling can be a very time consuming and expensive project. Especially when it comes to purchasing the right type of furniture to match your home physical layout and design. Locally you can purchase all types of furniture at very reasonable prices from many online retailers. One of the most popular collections is the timeless Victorian Collection. You can find this style or more at http://ow.ly/TkdRU

Hi, I’m an interior designer and have worked on many brownstone and limestone projects in Brooklyn. I’d be happy to chat with you a few minutes to find out a bit more about what you’re needing in terms of moldings. Hope to speak with you, Jane

Unfortunately I do not have any of the original moldings. Tinker- Ive heard nothing but good things about them. The problem is telling them what I want. I honestly have no idea. I can show them pictures of things I like of houses that are done but thats about it.

Do you have any of the old moldings, maybe that you had to rip out? We had a woodworker take samples of the moldings that were too damaged to keep and he recreated exactly.
