More well-deserved praise for our friends at Belle Époque! This time around from Thrillist that has them right at the top of their latest "Best Cocktail Bars in New Orleans" list. We love that they noted the work we delivered creating the atmosphere in this "intimate space" saying, "this absinthe parlor projects a speakeasy vibe with a sultry tribute to the 'Green Fairy.'" This references the plaster walls we created that are deep-green in tone and show motion that is meant to reference the "louche" of absinthe!
Be sure to check them out in this historic spot in the French Quarter! The drinks and food are spectacular and the great folks there are sure to deliver nothing less than top-notch NOLA hospitality! We'll see you there!
The Best Cocktail Bars in New Orleans

The city that created the Sazerac knows its way around a cocktail.More great recognition for our friends at Claret Wine & Cocktail Bar! This time, it's from New Orleans & Company and their list of "Cozy Bars" in the city (they're #2)! We love seeing the aesthetic we delivered in the interior described as "enchanting and makes for a great date night." It makes us feel, well, warm and cozy!😊

Belated happy birthday.
We are honored and thrilled that fully five of the hospitality spaces we’ve worked on recently are included in New Orleans Magazine’s “Best Bars” issue! We are also equally thrilled for our great friends and clients who operate these places truly deserving the recognition!
The first of the listed “Best Cocktail Bars” is Belle Époque, located in the French Quarter connected to the historic Old Absinthe House. We led the aesthetic design of this special, sultry space.
The first of the “Best Wine Bars” is Claret Wine and Cocktail Bar found on Magazine Street in the Lower Garden District. Here, also, we led the design in this modern and elegant spot.
Longway Tavern is listed first as one of the “Best Bars for Food.” We worked with them to deliver portions of the interior and overall input helping tell the story of this unique French Quarter spot including a showstopping hand-painted custom stencil (pop in and learn about the design)!
First up in the “Best Happy Hours” category is Meauxbar, the terrific French Quarter bistro on North Rampart Street across from Armstrong Park. We worked with them extensively when they redid the space a while back, creating a much warmer and inviting environment.
Also, among the “Best Bars for Food” is Bar Frances located Uptown on Freret Street. Here, we led the interior design aspects for the recent makeover of this terrific and popular spot!
Congratulations to all these great establishments and the folks behind them! We’re proud to be patrons of every one of them and call them all friends, too! We're honored that they trusted us with the work we delivered in their spaces! Be sure to pay each of them a visit – you won’t be disappointed in the drinks, food, hospitality, and, of course, the ambience!

New Orleans is a drinking town. After all, this is the birthplace of the cocktail and home of the once bustling Storyville. The city’s history with libations and the fun-loving attitude of the locals create a concoction that’s ripe for good times. Whether you’re looking for a dive bar to enjoy...It was a great honor to work on this special project in this truly historic (on many levels) French Quarter space! We delivered the aesthetic design that breathes sultriness and restrained elegance! The only things that match the atmosphere? The tremendous drinks, food, and hospitality! Check them out at Belle Époque! Happy New Year!

At Sylvia T Designs, we’re your New Orleans area gold leaf and gilding experts! Sometimes that means we get up-close-and-personal with our work! Here, we’re applying gold leaf to a residential dining room ceiling. We also delivered a beautiful textured plaster finish on the walls (more on that soon!) for our friends @jl_studi0! Gold leaf is perfect for accents, furniture, frames, or a show-stopping centerpiece (like this ceiling) in your space! Let us know how we can deliver that touch of gold for you!

It’s always great to see our friends and recent clients at Belle Époque – the sultry, elegant absinthe lounge where we designed the aesthetic in the French Quarter. It boasts a speak-easy vibe and sits tucked away behind the world-famous Old Absinthe House. Among many of our design elements seen here, we created this beautiful and symbolic plaster finish. The color harkens to the absinthe served in the lounge and the “motion” is an ode to the “louche” when one drips water into absinthe creating the cloudy presentation of the famed spirit. It was an honor and a joy to work on such a special project in such a terrific space. Thanks to them for including us! Be sure to check out their excellent bar program, delicious menu, and, of course, the incomparable atmosphere!

It’s an honor and privilege when individuals, businesses, and organizations trust us here at Sylvia T Designs to do work in their historic spaces. But, we bring this pride and dedication to our craft with every job we do – whether it’s historic or new construction, residential or commercial, large or small. We’ve been the New Orleans area’s trusted decorative arts firm for 25 years. If you’re looking to turn your space into a work of art, drop us a line! We’d be happy to help!
This shot is from our recent work for The Historic New Orleans Collection’s Seignouret-Brulatour House on Royal St. in the French Quarter. We restored the finishes in the “organ room” to its original splendor – the only space in the museum’s new wing to do so – in their new showcase facility. Visit our website by using the link in our bio to see more on this special project and more of what we do each and every day!

It’s an honor to be entrusted with doing work in historic spaces. We take this very seriously. As a native New Orleans decorative arts firm, this is rooted in our DNA – our sense of place and the responsibility placed in our hands by our clients is sacred to us. It informs what we do in our approach with each and every job. Whether it’s a residential project or commercial, new construction or historic, we seek to honor tradition and progress in all that we do.
Here, in this French Quarter residence, we’ve created a distressed lime plaster finish that is both beautiful and functional – the plaster will breath and last in our humid environment – and displays artistically exposed brick. In this space, we, also stained the beams, the ceiling, selected the colors of the cabinets, and delivered the finishes in the bathroom. More soon…
