Why this exists

For more than fifteen years, we have been the last people through the door before a home becomes someone's life.

We built custom millwork for penthouses. Sourced upholstery from workshops in Italy that do not have websites. Found 1970s Austrian palazzo glass sconces made by a single artist, at $3,000, that outlast anything a showroom sells for $2,000 and cost the same to wire.

We also walked into apartments after architects changed the layout without telling the designer. After contractors finished the floors before the millwork was planned. After owners spent $160,000 on furniture that was worth nothing the day it left the store.

Every time, the same thing was missing. Not a better contractor. Not a bigger budget. A plan.

For three years we built that plan privately, for our own clients at NYC Interior Design ®. Lawyers asked for it. Insurers asked for it. Estate attorneys asked for it. Homeowners kept asking us if they could have one without hiring us for a full project.

In May 2025 we made it available as a standalone product. We filled our first quarter within weeks.

The Record is produced in person, at your residence, by the same team that has been doing this work since 2010. There is a limited number we can take on at any time.
