Flashback: Thoughts on Jenna Lyons' Former Brooklyn Brownstone

Jan 19

Do you remember when you first saw Jenna Lyons' brownstone in the pages of Domino Magazine? I do. Well, not specifically. I can't recall when the November 2008 issue arrived in the mail, but I do remember my complete and utter fascination with Jenna's aesthetic.

It wasn't of a particular style–just an eclectic mix with unexpected choices, like the bedroom's freestanding tub and chalkboard walls. Each space was a livable-yet-adventurous blend of modern, trad, industrial, glam, and the reclaimed set against beautiful architectural details.

"We were trying to establish a way for design to be playful and engaging, without being exclusionary" - Jenna Lyons on decorating her Park Slope home

I loved it then and still do now! And although its owners and decor have changed over the years, the 2008 incarnation of this lovely Brooklyn brownstone continues to inspire me.
