Luxury Interior Designer on Long Island, NY
Interior design and whole-home renovation for the postwar capes, splits, and colonials of Syosset and the surrounding Town of Oyster Bay.
Robyn Baumgarten has designed Long Island homes for more than 25 years, and Syosset keeps her busy. Her work has appeared in House, Distinction, Fashion Manuscript, Newsday, and the Long Island Press. She runs her studio in nearby Plainview.
Many Syosset homes went up after the war as capes, splits, and hi-ranches. They have good bones but small, closed rooms. Robyn opens them up, adds light, and makes them work for busy families.
She also reaches makers most people cannot. Through a trade network of over 150 vendors, Robyn sources furniture, fabric, and finishes you will not find in stores.
Families move to Syosset for the schools and the space. Robyn helps them get more from the homes they buy. She starts by learning how your family really lives, day to day.
Older layouts chop the house into small rooms. Robyn opens the kitchen to the family room, adds storage, and lets light flow through. The home feels twice as big without moving an inch of the lot line.
She stays close through the whole project. Robyn handles the trades, the timeline, and each finish, so the work stays on track and the result holds up to daily family life.
From a single room to a full renovation, here is how Robyn helps Syosset families. Click any service to learn more.

Robyn meets you at your Syosset home. She learns how your family lives and what the house is missing.
She maps the rooms with floor plans, sample boards, and 3D views, so you can see the open layout before a wall comes down.
She selects durable hardwoods, stone, custom pieces, and finishes from her network of 150-plus trade vendors.
Her team manages every trade through the final reveal, and your home is ready for daily family life.

"Every finish holds up to our kids and still looks great. Robyn really understood how our family lives."
