Designer Suzanne Dimma takes us inside her client’s elegant home where classic decorating reigns supreme. Inspired by the cult-favorite kitchen in Eyeswoon founder Athena Calderone’s Brooklyn brownstone, see how Suzanne replicated the look with off-black cabinets, herringbone floors, a marble floating shelf and of course - plenty of brass. The elegant foyer is another Eyeswoon-inspired design, featuring checkerboard floors, a black stained staircase and applied molding. “We had to make sure the house maintained the Old World feeling but modernized it with the updated kitchen,” says Suzanne.

Where can I locate this futon/couch?

[@lolomora9056]

They nailed that eyeswoon look. We all wish we had Athena's kitchen and bathroom. WELL DONE

[@leonardogarrido]

That kitchen from eyeswoon is a dream of many. Well done. This place is timeless

[@richardhenry968]

Absolutely stunning - this is a perfect balance of sophisticated design - minimalism, artistry and livability. Minimal but warm. High design - but approachable and inviting. Stunning but welcoming. It’s a fantastic achievement.

[@anitavirginillo]

Suzanne, you remain my favourite designer of all time! (which is saying a lot!!!!).

[@kgalvin7503]

I am in awe. This is so well executed…and the mood it is giving me is just sublime. I usually prefer a more maximalist approach with color and pattern, but I think you really nailed this perfect balance of modernism with classical details. Simply stunning.

[@edilbertosacchi]

This house is a masterpiece, elegant, timeless and functional.

[@greatestsportslegends]

Stunning home transformation. Really remarkable attention to detail. And I personally want to thank you for not using the most overused term in the industry... "elevated". Not one single time! Bravo.

[@fiddlersthree8463]

I would (if I could!!) hire Suzanne to do my house, then go away on vacation knowing I would love whatever she did. My long-time favourite designer.

[@annjohnson8437]

Gorgeous, elegant, and calming home. Well done! ❤

[@sakinahabdul-jaleel]

So glad to see Suzanne back!!!! Beautiful work

[@marianmurphy5385]

Really lovely..I was a bit surprised with what looked like a bed in the living room..but realised it was a backless sofa..with a white pillow.

[@JAZZLlFE]

Those wide arches are everything! 🤩

[@tamarar3667]

This is my favourite by far! So timeless and elegant. Who wouldn’t want to live there.

[@ljss123]

Lovely.. grace, purity of form, calmness and light

Peaceful and lovely...and the arches add a "grace note."

[@beatricewells7158]

You achieved it! The kitchen is beautiful.

[@ahmadshawky2212]

Outstanding design and color schemes, makes you feel comfortable with elegance, while you travel back in time to the 1930s. Well done !

[@earmata]

Absolutely STUNNING!!! Wow!!

[@elizabethheatley22]

Gorgeous! Well done Suzanne.

[@angelicamendoza8232]

So inspiring! Great job! I love it, congrats!

[@peterjensen1455]

Exceptionally beautiful.

[@Douglas.N.]

I love the clean updated classic look!

[@deealex1402]

great example how you can make minimalistic style with class and not boring looking. people who pile up stuff in their houses and every counter ,surface of the house has so much stuff, they always say that minimalistic is boring. to me ,less is always more, its tastefully done, interesting and also calming. Too much things in the home makes it messy, busy and almost always look more like a furniture store than a home. just love the clean lines and how they got this antique feel to it with a modern vibe. Timeless. Well done, one of my favorit spaces :)

[@sandyresendes617]

Oh wow, so stunning! LOVE!!!!

[@DearDesignCoach]

Very elegant and beautifully executed !

[@freetreebees]

Go to Athena's home tour video and you're gonna know. She mentioned it

[@photographerimages]

A nice interior. ❤

[@lizabetx483]

I clicked so fast! Lovely.

[@goldenlabelstudio]

Instantly!

[@navtejkaur147]

Love! Can someone please point me in the direction of where to find the backless Sofa/Futon! The Hight/dimensions/fabric is exactly what I need! Thank you!

[@mireyagu]

Hello! What color did you paint the walls in the living room ❓ thank you

[@stephengibbons30]

Charming

[@libertylady8462]

Love ❤

[@WhiteRabbit556]

I didnt know cream was a moody color. Wish the paint colors could be listed.

[@eternallyminded7]

Was thinking the same thing. That term is usually used to describe much darker colors, but I like that color and would like to know what it is as well. Thinking about using a similar color in my den.

[@tiaaa7108]

Her hair is gorgeous

[@kgalvin7503]

That too!

[@tiffanycurtis4794]

Women embrace your beautiful gray hair😄

[@tiaaa7108]

@@tiffanycurtis4794 yes I think it’s beautiful and you don’t have to cut it as you age either.

[@mcal6195]

Please share the kitchen cabient paint color ❤

[@toppcatt5113]

wow

[@nalabaci9230]

How do k get that sink. Also, what kind of marble is that?

[@bdloves111]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@favoree]

Great volumes , beautiful arches , all unified and enhanced by very good wall paint . I would only add some more practical details , such as storage at the eye level , generally some storage surfaces, especially in the bathrooms. And instead of this gorgeous but very delicate marble in the kitchen the designer could easily choose a more technological but not less beautiful modern material . It would not harm the vintage feel of the house .

[@debbebunch9973]

Not my personal taste, but beyond gorgeous...!!

[@alexandrailnyckyj6059]

What a normal house. Perhaps the hospital lottery should sponsor something like. I would buy a ticket or two.

[@user-cn6qi9qu2k]

Can you let me know what colour you have on the walls?

[@scottyp3623]

they are painted cloud white CC-40 by benjamin moore

[@Charlottesometimeskp]

What is the paint color in the living room please?! I need this color in my bedroom.

[@scottyp3623]

they are painted cloud white CC-40 by benjamin moore

[@jaimez4883]

Cloud White is the color in the living room and other areas (dining room)?@@scottyp3623

[@eqr9075]

Interestingly, last year Athena sold the townhouse that inspired this kitchen

[@daloriscutone6380]

She has stunning hair.

[@Fouloul.]

I'm not sure she understand what "compact" means!

[@samtriglone8858]

Ridiculous right. That ensuite is the size of my living room.

[@annjohnson8437]

​@@samtriglone8858same, lol! 😂

[@annjohnson8437]

I can't even begin to imagine how a designer would hate to work on a tiny home like mine. It would probably feel like they were being forced to work in a box, lol!

[@michaelsapienza8749]

I'm not sure that I understand how people are applauding her for blatantly copying another kitchen...

[@eattherich9215]

Marble. Good luck with staining and porosity.

[@lornamarie5544]

Have always liked that kitchen. The rest of the house is a bit too bland for my taste but it does look very soothing.

[@elle6952]

Of course beautiful, but the kitchen is a complete recreation. Why not make it your own by changing the marble color, swapping out the sconces, or choosing another knob shape? I mean anything that showcases the talent of the firm and your own interest. I will never understand copying everything someone else created to suit their life.

[@thelalanz73]

Because the owners wanted this and it makes them happy. It's not about you. It's a kitchen. not an entire life recreation. 🙄

[@lisaharrod8386]

Designed every bit of thirties character completely out of the place. Looks exactly like a million other places...nondescript, white, white, and more white.

[@irenemergelina7400]

I didn't like it
