Somerville | Playroom & Home Office

Embracing urban living with kids is all about knowing how to maximize small spaces. My client one spare bedroom needed to function as her office as well as a playroom for her two small children.The key step was to have clearly defined storage for the kids’ toys. We also moved my client’s desk to the other side of the room to give her a little more privacy and free up more floor space for play. We took inventory of the room’s closet and made sure everything was categorized and grouped and labeled accordingly.

Belmont | Master Closet & Home Office

Private, roomy and light-filled, my client's master closet made a great WFH office. But she was hoping to shed the “I work in my closet” look, not exactly ideal for Zoom calls. I helped her hone her entire wardrobe and then organized everything by season and color. Once all of the suits and piles of clothes, shoes, and accessories were situated, the office portion just needed a quick refresh. I consolidated her files and paperwork onto shelves (that had previously held clothes), mounted cork boards, and added drawer organizers, and voila!

Lexington | Kitchen & Pantry

After moving in together and merging families, my client and her boyfriend were feeling unsettled in their new home. Everyone had their own separate areas for storing ingredients and cookware. Some drawers and cabinets were crammed while others were empty, and there were multiples of many things. To add ease and functionality, we consolidated packaged food into the underutilized pantry. We sorted and combined utensils, spices, junk drawer miscellany, and other kitchen items with the help of drawer organizers and bins. Now mealtime prep and cleanup is a lot less stressful and time consuming!

Belmont | Whole Home

As with many families, merging home life and work life due to Covid was chaotic and stressful. My client was overwhelmed with the demands of working full time from home while also taking care of her young children and dog. Stuff had been piling up everywhere from the kitchen to the laundry room and she didn’t even know where to start. Together, I helped her go from room to room and create spaces that everyone could enjoy and realistically maintain.

Newton | Whole Home

My client was feeling the weight of all of the stuff that had piled up in every nook and cranny of her home after eight years and three kids. She needed my help to take stock and figure out what to keep, toss, or relocate. Once we purged, it was simply a means of making her home work better for her and her family—from setting up a kids’ craft zone in the basement and reorganizing the kitchen to outfitting the master closet and styling the bookcase in the living room, her entire home looks and feels lighter!

Newton | Whole Home

After over a decade of accumulating clutter, it was hard for my client to have guests over, move about her space, or even breathe easily. After losing her mom, she acquired even more items—these with added emotional significance. She was ready to learn new systems to clear clutter and stay organized. She wanted to take back her home but needed help.

Belmont | Custom Closet

“Syliva took a careful inventory of our belongings and worked with an outside vendor to redesign our closets and create a beautiful custom built-in for our primary bedroom. Throughout the process, she kept us well informed, solved any problems that arose, and ultimately delivered something much more stylish and functional than we could have imagined.”
