Whole-home interior design for the colonials, brick Georgians, and custom homes on the wooded lots of Woodbury, Long Island.
Robyn Baumgarten has designed Long Island homes for more than 25 years. Her studio is in Plainview, a few minutes from Woodbury in Nassau County. Her work has appeared in House, Distinction, Fashion Manuscript, Newsday, and the Long Island Press.
Woodbury homes are big and set on wooded lots. Large rooms can feel empty and cold without the right plan. Robyn brings warmth and proportion to great rooms, kitchens, and open floor plans so the whole house feels welcoming.
She also reaches makers most people cannot. Through a trade network of over 150 vendors, Robyn sources furniture, stone, and millwork you will not find in stores.
Families choose Woodbury for the space, the trees, and the schools. Robyn helps them make the most of a large house. She starts by learning how you live and how you like to host.
She carries one warm thread through every room. From the great room to the chef's kitchen to the finished lower level, the whole house works together and feels like home.
Many homes here were built between the 1960s and the 1980s. They often have closed-off kitchens, low family rooms, and dark halls. Robyn gut-renovates these dated, boxy layouts into open, light-filled plans.
She can also expand or rebuild when a family needs more room, and she works with the architect so the new space matches the old.
A tall great room needs scale to feel cozy. Robyn uses larger furniture groupings, layered lighting, and texture so the room fills out without crowding.
Downstairs, she plans the lower level as real living space: a media room, a play area, a guest suite, or a bar for entertaining.
Robyn has designed single-family homes and new luxury townhomes in town. Here are a few of them.
