It’s almost time to start decorating for the holidays — so what better people to ask how they’re decorating than the great interior designers of the Hamptons and New York City?
How will you be updating your clients’ or your own homes for the holidays?
Shannon Willey, Sea Green Designs
We love to add holiday greenery for both our clients and in our home. My love of nature comes through with pine bows and red berries combined with ribbons and ornaments. Adding these natural elements is a great way to update your home for the holidays no matter what you’re celebrating.

I lean heavily on florals for holiday décor. I find they’re the best way to celebrate the season and express your personal style. Each year presents the opportunity to do something new. My approach is less conventional; I might go for tropical plants in festive red or silver, add a flash of hot pink or orange to a monochromatic arrangement, or pair neutral feathers and pampas grass with a vessel that is more traditionally “holiday.”
Geoffrey Walsky, Iconic Modern Home
I always turn to lighting to make the most high impact, yet low cost improvement to any space for holiday entertaining. Whether changing sconces, light bulbs or decorating with lights and candles, it is the easiest way to change the mood for any space whether indoors or out.
