LIVING ROOM

'This is probably the most refined and elegant room in the house and that was the goal while designing it,' says Arianna.

DINING ROOM

This space may be pared-back but the walnut wood has a wonderful, nuanced moodiness to it.

KITCHEN

Arianna loves the neutral yet rich feel of the cabinetry's olive hue.

THE OWNER

Interior designer Arianna De Gasperis - founder of And Studio - and her husband. The couple have two dogs, Stewie and Ozzy.

THE PROPERTY

A classic 1850s Victorian brownstone located in Jersey City, on American's East Coast. The ground floor comprises the entryway, living room, dining room, powder room and kitchen. On the first floor is the main bedroom and bathroom, a guest bedroom and bathroom and an office space.

a lot of people buy historic homes and then take away the character of what used to be there,' says Arianna De Gasperis. The interior designer, however, did the complete opposite for her own home in Jersey City's Van Vorst Park. From Canada and with Italian origins, Arianna studied at Parsons School of Design in New York City where she decided to settle down and launch her practice, And Studio.
