Short Hills NJ Residence

Short Hills, New Jersey, USA

In this Short Hills, NJ residence, YZDA artfully blended effortless living with classic sophistication to create a haven for a young professional couple transitioning from the vibrant energy of Manhattan to the tranquility of suburban life. The home’s retreat-like setting provided the perfect canvas for a design that feels both modern and warmly inviting, capturing the essence of a peaceful escape while retaining a sense of refined elegance.

With young children in mind, YZDA carefully selected practical yet stylish materials that would stand up to daily life while preserving an airy and uncluttered atmosphere. The design centers around a cool neutral palette that brings a sense of calm and spaciousness, accented with subtle pops of color in each room to add a touch of personality and warmth. This thoughtful combination creates a balance between serenity and vibrancy, allowing each space to feel both dynamic and soothing.

The goal was to craft spaces that cater to both the playful energy of children and the couple's need for sophisticated relaxation and entertaining. Large sunroom windows overlooking the backyard flood the home with natural light, infusing it with a soft glow that enhances the feeling of openness and connection to nature. The gentle palette of fabrics, complemented by restrained splashes of color, anchors the space, making it feel serene and welcoming—a perfect blend of elegance and comfort, where family memories can be created and cherished.
