Three bathrooms I'm working on. Two are in Mountain Lakes and one in Morristown. The fun part is selecting all of the materials and designing the actual spaces by creating floor plans and elevations. Next comes meeting with the talented craftsman and contractors to realize my designs, approved and collaborated on, by the client. A great team, all on the same page, ensures a happy customer. We love re-imaginging space. www.papyrushomedesign.com

I'm working on several great projects this Spring! The client ask: to live intentionally, first editing and removing anything dated or no longer needed. Then, painting the whole house and sanding and staining the hardwood floors. Followed by adding new furnishings in fabulous colors and textures, custom area rugs made to fit each room and adding wallpapers and grasscloth in several spaces. As designers, we have access to beautiful fabrics, wallpapers and furnishings, not available to the general public. We work together with our clients and make your house YOU, but even better!! We love re-imaginging space.

I don't think that I posted the photos of this completed basement renovation project. Scroll thru to the end, to see the before photos. The clients wanted to add a bathroom, create a living space, a bar area and pool table room, as they entertain a lot. I brought in an architect to figure out the specifics for the bathroom location (as everything needed to be pumped up) and then told him where I wanted all of the spaces to be located. I then designed the bar area, selected all of the materials and colors, based on the clients wishes and found some cool light fixtures.....specifically the one over the pool table. The client selected a lot of the furnishings pulling the entire space together. A terrific collaboration, wanting them "to stay in". Wouldn't you? I love re-imagining space!! Katja

Wishing everyone a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!!! Whether a small or large table, may you be surrounded with family and friends to celebrate health, love and those held dear. Here, a few dining spaces I designed over the years, from Boonton and Morristown, to Harding, New Vernon and Tribeca. I continue to be grateful to all of my wonderful clients and look forward to many more home transformations. Thank you!!! Katja

In honor of the 4th of July holiday weekend, some "blue" to get you in the mood. Besides doing complete redesigning and updating of spaces, sometimes we are asked to update rooms. Here, in this Mountain Lakes home, the master bathroom and home office were completely re-imagined and the window treatments in the dining room and living room, lightened and updated. The carpet on the stairs, although originally nice and traditional, was asked to be made more current. So, we added a fun animal print....still classic but more current. We love what we do and hope you do too. Best wishes for a wonderful holiday!!! Katja

Whenever possible, I try to get outside. Often, we bike the Columbia Trail, Laontaka park or ride along New Jerseys quaint coastal towns. Nature is such a great inspiration and I love an opportunity to photograph beauty. Last week I was kayaking in Boonton on the river....how wonderful to have all of this beauty right in my backyard.

It's been a cold and snowy winter in NJ!! What a change of scenery in sunny Arizona to celebrate Mom's 79th birthday alfresco and poolside. Wishing her all the best and hopefully many more years.....despite a diagnosis of cancer. Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes....it is appreciated.

CELEBRATING 25 YEARS!!! 1996-2021
Enter the world of Papyrus Home Design and the collaboration of Katja van der Loo and her clients. Here, a very small sample of some of our work over the years: from old houses to new houses, NYC apartments, lots of kitchens, show houses, commercial spaces and countless number of bathrooms. Many thanks to all of the talented artisans and craftsmen that have realized our designs meticulously, the reliable vendor and workroom partnerships that have our back, but mostly, thanks to the incredible number of wonderful clients, as without their trust and faith, I could not have imagined this most satisfying career.....as I LOVE re-imagining space!! Looking forward to 25 more years.....happy to do so in warm and sunny places!! Katja

This morning I went to Towaco to determine the bar stain for a basement renovation project I've been working on. Take a look at the open space (Before) and how it has been transformed. The client wanted a bathroom (there was none to start with), so I brought in an architect to determine where it could be located. Then a color and material palette, as well as the overall design layout, was determined by myself and a very good builder realized the design. The space is almost ready to serve up cocktails!! We love to transform space!! Katja

People always tell me how patient I am. You have to be in this industry as sometimes significant amount of time passes between design and completion. That said, it is truly rewarding to see the progress of projects. Take a look at this facade in Boonton, which is coming along nicely. I usually do a Before and After, but capturing the During and Progress is great also. We looked at photos of the building 100 years ago, listened to what the client was looking to do with this space and had Larry Korinda (architect) do the final plans. The proposed sketch of what we wanted the Facade to look like was done by myself. We love transforming space!! Katja
