With every New England Home story, the work of the most talented architects, interior designers, builders and craftspeople in the region is brought to life. This New Years Day, I proudly reflect back on some of the wonderful projects I've had the good fortune to style in our region. The following homes are among my favorite stories from 2012, each bringing a different look to the magazine.

The art, New York Drippings, a stunning twenty-seven-foot multi-panel painting by Venezuelan artist Sigfredo Chacón in this home's entry is part of the modern Latin art collection that is showcased in dramatic ways throughout this home of classic architecture, appearing in our New England Home Connecticut summer issue.

It was well worth the five-hour drive to find this well-designed timber-frame mountain home. The home’s dramatic style mirrors the breathtaking mountainside slopes. I was thrilled to find this home and work with Interior designer Jennifer Palumbo for our November/December issue.

This early-1900s summer cabin restored to new splendor was a huge and exciting surprise. Sitting on the beach-y coast of Buzzards Bay, Cape Cod, we decided to feature it in our September/October issue. The home’s wood paneling mixed with a modern design creates a very successful marriage of a bygone era and today’s forward vision.

In the most unlikely of places, I discovered a concrete house hidden along the Connecticut River in New Hampshire. Inspired by the designs of renowned Japanese architect Tadao Ando, the home combines concrete and glass to create a modern look. The home captivates views inside and out and is included this year's May/June issue.

While touring projects with Lewis Interiors, I found this extraordinary, stately and glamorous Beacon Hill condominium, featured in the March/April issue. It reminded me that tradition thrives abundantly in the city of Boston.

One day last spring, in a quiet Connecticut neighborhood of historic and antique homes, I visited this avant garde and forward-thinking renovation of a 1960's contemporary, which I styled for the fall issue of New England Home Connecticut.

This family-friendly lakeside home was designed with children in mind. This room, from the September/October issue, gets my best kids’ workspace award combining ship-lap siding and vaulted ceilings to create a bright modern workspace.
