Meridith Baer Interviewed by Haute Residence

Meridith is interviewed in a recent story at Haute Residence!

The piece is called Meridith Baer Dishes On How She Began Her Home-Staging Empire + The Number One Design Rule She Lives By.

In it, Meridith discusses her staging process, from initial walkthrough of a property to final result; sums up Meridith Baer Home’s design philosophy; and reveals the foremost design rule she lives by:

Don’t overdo it. I think for any designer, you need to remember it’s not your home – you are creating a home for someone else and you need to give them space to envision themselves in the home (or actually move in!).

Modern Staging at Makena in Rancho Mirage

Luxury staging by Meridith Baer Home is featured in this stunning video for 6 Makena, one of ten custom homes in the modern Makena development in Rancho Mirage, CA, near Palm Springs.

The house features sleek modern architecture, with no detail spared: Italian tile flooring, iceberg blue marble counters, an abalone pool and infinity spa, and expansive walls of sliders framing stunning views of San Jacintos and the surrounding desert.

We styled the property with contemporary furnishings, with a striking white palette warmed by leather accents, textured fabrics and rugs, and beautiful florals and artwork.

We staged the home for Joshua Pukini, AB Capital.

DUMBO, which stands for “Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass,” is an increasingly popular area of Brooklyn, with chic restaurants, vibrant nightlife, world-class shopping and entertainment, and Brooklyn Bridge Park just steps away.

Wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, the full-floor penthouse we staged seems to float above the coveted DUMBO skyline, with a nearly 400 square foot private roof terrace providing front-row views of Brooklyn, New York Harbor, and Governor’s Island.

Meridith Baer Home Staged Coxhead House—an Historic Landmark in Northern California

San Mateo, CA is a Silicon Valley city better known for technology than history. But amidst its thriving contemporary culture sits a 19th century English Tudor home called Coxhead House that’s keeping the beauty and spirit of tradition alive.

Built in 1891 by noted British architect Ernest Albert Coxhead, the property is both a national and California state historic landmark. It was recently put on market, staged to sell by Meridith Baer Home!

The home, its sale, and our staging are featured in the latest issue of PUNCH magazine, in a story called Coxhead House: Window Into History. The piece details the house’s charming history and explores the inherent challenge in updating a traditional property for contemporary buyers.

Meridith Baer Home handled the staging and relished the assignment of conveying contemporary living in an historic setting. “We chose to honor the historic elements of the house and not fight it,” says designer Sabrina Ferrand. “You have to respect the home. You bring in certain pieces that nod to it, making the flow cohesive while acknowledging what’s there.”

We staged the listing for Scott Syme of Syme Group Real Estate Services.

From Staging to Luxury Furniture Leasing in New York City

At Meridith Baer Home, our staged interiors are meant to be seductive but temporary, helping buyers experience an aspirational feeling of home while walking through a property for sale.

Our staged furnishings stay in a home until it sells, at which point we remove and rehab them for future use.

Sometimes, though, we don’t get our things back so quickly!

Yorkville Condo

This condo we recently staged for sale in Yorkville, on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, didn’t acquire a buyer. Instead, it found a renter, and that tenant was so taken by our interiors, she asked to lease them along with the unit.

Yorkville Condo

In this case, only the furniture and decorative accessories already installed in the residence were leased. But we also provide any other products needed to live comfortably in a new or temporary space: kitchenware, home electronics, linens, even toiletries!

Luxury furniture leasing by Meridith Baer Home is a comprehensive, convenient solution for any tenant or homeowner needing immediate interim interiors.READ MORE

Semi-transparent sliding doors, inspired by Japan’s paper-paned Shoji doors, filter and soften the flow of natural light throughout the space.

Our design was transitional, bordering on eclectic, blending contemporary lines with earthy woods and textiles to create a feeling of minimalist warmth, complimenting the home’s global architectural inspiration.
