In March 2022, Christie and Steve Pelley—a married couple from Silicon Valley—reached out to interior designer @zoefeldmandesign after falling in love with her work over Instagram and asked her to design their newly acquired Federal-style townhouse in Georgetown.
At the the very start of the collaboration, Christie explained that she wanted the five-story residence to be livable and unfussy—a true family home. “She immediately told me she didn’t want a formal dining or living room,” says Feldman.

To paraphrase @xtina : When will my reflection show...layered textures that create both depth and a sense of calm, with movement from limewashed walls, nuanced marble, and curved edges? ...or something like that.

Low-slung, California-cool furniture meets Georgetown classicism in this family room designed for a family of sports lovers, and is conveniently located steps away from the kitchen and dining area—so no one misses a play grabbing a snack.

On the latest episode of Ask Us Anything—an extension of Trade Tales—Washington, D.C.–based Zoë Feldman weighs in on how to hire for aesthetic alignment, the metrics she uses to measure an employee’s progress at the firm, and how a team member with their own style can sometimes save the firm from adopting a formulaic look.

Happy Mother’s Day to the person who taught me how to be a great mom and also the one who raised the bar so high, I sometimes wonder if I should just pass the baton back to her. This year has been rough, mama, but we’re going to get through it together. I love you beyond measure. But you already know that. X
For those following the renovation journey of Kemble Cottage, thank you for coming along, and sorry about the whiplash. I can’t help myself!
With construction officially underway, today’s Sidenote walks through the latest changes at the house, including a reworked kitchen, a pantry door with a porthole, and my plan for a super scary root cellar (plus an invitation to Ask Me Anything!).

I love a galley kitchen for its functionality and its ability to show layers of materials working together in one vista. My former home stayed neutral on the walls and cabinets, while I installed an Escher-inspired marble tile on the floors and a vibrant marigold powder room to punctuate it at the far end.
