Longway Tavern – Historic French Quarter Restaurant

Each of our projects consist of two components. The first is the preservation of the history, culture and tradition of New Orleans and the sense of place implied by these old buildings. The second is populating these buildings with a team that embodies exactly what we think the 21st century New Orleans experience should be. Sylvia allows us to do both at the same time.

Kitchen Cabinet and Bar Refinishing

We recently did a small renovation which included our 22-year old kitchen cabinets and bar being refinished by Sylvia. They are our favorite part of the project. The finish is much prettier than I have seen on new factory cabinets coupled with a significant cost savings. Her work is really amazing.

Kitchen Renovation

We engaged Sylvia during the renovation of our kitchen. The work entailed changes to the wall colors, floor finish, counter tops, and repainting of the cabinets and island. Sylvia was instrumental in identifying the mix of colors and paint style that would complement the other aspects of our home. The overall creativity and knowledge of color matching and paint finishing were key factors in the overall success of the project. She always conducted herself very professionally and completed all work in a timely manner. Sylvia was very easy to work with both in the design and the implementation of the work. In addition, Sylvia developed a plan for repainting the wrought iron stair rail in our house. She worked to provide a truly unique product which aligns with and highlights the lighting and furniture in the foyer. Everyone who comes into our home is impressed with Sylvia’s work. We will use Sylvia again for future projects.

Historic Restaurant Renovation in the French Quarter

All of our projects start with the building. We find old buildings with great bones that deserve to be preserved and reintroduced to everyone so that they may experience the history and sense of place in New Orleans. Sylvia is literally the person single most responsible for bringing them back to life with her restoration and decorative arts work. Once we have an amazing old building that we think people should experience, we create an idea for what type of restaurant would be authentic to the space. We then work with Sylvia to bring those ideas and the place to life.

Fireplace Refinish

Sylvia was very attentive to my style and wishes. She made a sample piece so I could see how it would look before she started. She was prompt and professional. Her price was reasonable.

Sylvia was great to work with. She provided me with several samples of stains for my cabinets and beams. She was flexible in her schedule and met all deadlines. Her work is very beautiful and I love all she did. I will hire her again for additional work I am considering.

Historic French Quarter Creole Cottage

The results that Sylvia and her crew created for my cottage in the French Quarter exceeded my expectations. From the consult, to the color selection and previews of samples she created, to the professional way the work itself was conducted, but mostly to the final outcome. Not only do I admire the walls every day, but the number of compliments I hear also proves that the job is fantastic. The cost was more than for some other finishes, but it seemed very reasonable for the work involved and certainly for the result, which is so beautiful!

Tadelakt is all the rage these days! It’s both beautiful and durable. It can be used in both wet (showers, tubs, sinks) and dry (walls, ceilings) applications. There is a lot of stuff on the market these days but true tadelakt is a traditional Moroccan technique with a specific materials approach. Achieving the desired look, which can feature gorgeous, organic movement, and the needed functionality requires the right hands and experience. Sylvia T Designs is the region’s only true tadelakt artisan. We have the know-how, product experience, and artistry to bring this special plaster to your spaces! Pictured here is a residential renovation in an historic property located in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans. We are delivering numerous elements in the space. In this shot, we did an all-over tadelakt plastering in the main part of the bathroom (walls and ceiling) as well as in the stunning walk-in shower.

Here's the last element we want to share from this residential project in New Orleans we did a while back (please see our previous few posts for more)! We created a mural by interpreting an image from a publication that inspired the homeowner. It’s classic imagery of an English Garden Square is a bit wistful along with the individuals bringing a slightly “ghostly” feel. The finishing touch is the frame, which we goldleafed, giving the mural a gallery painting look. Overall, it’s a beautiful and tranquil addition to the home’s guestroom.

Hey All! Here’s a #TBT shot from a residential project we completed a while back in New Orleans. We delivered a few elements in the home. Here, we finished this stunning archway as well as gold leafed the crown molding and chandelier. This is the entryway from the front door into the great room. The archway boasts a custom finish we created, as the homeowner wanted a look that was striking yet appears as if it had been there “for a long time.” The glazing (a stunning, multilayered blue tone) and the goldleaf were crackled resulting in the desired distressed appearance. Sylvia T Designs is the premier native New Orleans decorative arts firm and the region’s leader in gold leaf applications. Let us know how we can make your space a work of art! . . . . . . #yourspaceasaworkofart #honoringtraditionandprogress #masterartisan #artisan #craftsman #craftsmanship #craftsperson #craftswoman #decorativeartist #fauxfinisher #artist #designer #interiordesigner #interiordesign #interiordecor #interiors #NOLA #NewOrleans #Lakeview #goldleaf #gilding #gildingart #glaze #glazing #customfinish #residential #remodel #southernliving #showmeyournola
