There a lot of moving parts in a work space for productivity and achievement to soar. From the people, compatible personalities and appropriate technology to the environment, perks, pay and more, every component that plays a part is essential for success. Interior settings busy with outdated colors, patterned wallpaper, dingy paint and clutter can negatively impact the best of employees.
Neutral is a delightful lukewarm word that stands in the middle of things without a commitment to anything. Neutral in the car transmission is neither forward nor reverse. In politics, it’s neither for nor against. In colors, it’s not black or white, not even light or dark. The advantages are abundant starting with that proverbial blank slate.
A homeowner in Battery Park City called us in to remove wallpaper in the bedroom. It’s a wonder he ever slept next to this bold green, cluttered, jungle-like pattern.

One homeowner decided the dark, stringy wallpaper, akin to a loosely woven burlap sack, in the dining room simply had to go. We are the best with copious experience in removing wallpaper, always beginning with protecting floor, furniture, electronics and pet hamsters.

In an established condo building in Murray Hill, we were tasked with painting the whole place after some floor repair. Around 30 square feet of wood flooring in a living room corner had been removed. It was an ugly sight, and we cleaned and primed the concrete before installing new wood flooring seamlessly.
If you’ve ever walked into a room and thought, “Wow, this space looks so polished!” chances are the molding played a big role in that. Molding (also called “trim”) is a decorative element that can transform a plain wall or ceiling into something special. Here’s a quick, casual rundown of some popular molding types and where you might see them.
When one lives in a luxury condo building, replete with a full-time doorman, pool, fitness center, concierge, elevator and ultra thoughtful designs for modern living, well, you want the interior of any residence to reflect the refined atmosphere.
As the heart of the home, the kitchen functions as a multi-faceted food hub, drink station, family bonding space and friendship central. The way to our hearts is through our stomachs, and this one room stands at the ready to function on many levels for many wonderful reasons.
