As as a correspondent for broadcast news, I learned how to tell stories. It is the building block for what I do now, developing personalized lifestyle that I believe tells the story of how each of our client’s live.

How We Work

 
 

DESIGN SERVICES

FULL-SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN

Tiger Lily’s works one-on-one with clients in decorating, renovating, or realizing the dream of a newly constructed home. We work out of the largest design library in Greenwich, and that backdrop builds what we consider to be the backbone of the story and helps us achieve our goal of delivering the client’s best point of view. The creativity at Tiger Lily’s always lays in that hand-styled, personally designed, and crafted expression.

We have worked with notable clients such as Tommy Hilfiger to install in remote places like Tommy’s beachside estate in Palm Beach Mustique.


WORKROOM

CUSTOM UPHOLSTERY

The upholstery workroom is where the fun happens and where I am reminded every day that there is no comparison to our hand-crafted furniture and draperies. There is a creative feeling that resonates when you walk into the space, where at any given time our team of artisans are working on over a dozen individualized projects. On the production side, we cross language barriers working together as a team and a family. Beyond Tiger Lily’s being a family business, our head pattern cutter has been with Tiger Lily’s for over 20 years and her children work within. It is another way we put family first.

We have simple proud moments every day, when pieces of furniture are revitalized to serve one generation to the next, or when a custom-conceived piece fits perfectly in a space. We also have the big moments that make us look back with pride and gratitude, from the opportunity to partner with the Archdiocese of New York to work on the custom construction of the Pope Francis Papal Chair, to watching our team on HGTV.


SHOWROOM

WORKING WITH THE BEST

Open 20 years, Tiger Lily’s is the market leader of Luxury Custom Design Detail in Fairfield and Westchester Counties. We are the only local showroom to offer a curated library of the biggest names in textile design along with a curated sampling of flooring & carpeting, tile, wallpaper, wall color, hardware, lighting, and exclusive home furnishings. Adjoined to the showroom is our custom workroom. At any given time, our artistic painter could be reviving an old frame which will change hands with an upholster who will bring this piece to life using fabrics and trims available in our showroom. It's full circle.

Supporting the community is a key value for the "Tiger Lily's Team", it gives us the unique opportunity to curate and carry the best vendors and artisans creating work in our own backyard. From boutique brands like Sister Parish and Rebbecca Atwood to industry strongholds like F.Schumacher, Lee Jofa and Brunschwig & Fils our showroom is a D&D Building experience localized. We have built personal relationships with our leading design vendors like Kravet, Cowtan & Tout, Colefax & Fowler, Romo, Houles, Samuel & Sons, Holly & Sherry, Holly Hunt and the John Rosselli Showroom.

Beyond the fabric and textiles our showroom is an access point where clients can access exclusive to-the-trade vendors who deal in bespoke furniture and lighting. We bring the experience of home interior shopping under one roof. At Tiger Lily's we say, From Our House To Yours, and it's meaningful.
