Interior Design in Roslyn, NY

Concierge interior design for Roslyn's historic homes, Gold Coast estates, and the villages of Roslyn Heights and East Hills.

Roslyn is one of the North Shore's most historically rich communities, with a preserved village center dating to the mid-1800s, a landmark mill pond, and a housing stock that ranges from Stick Victorian homes to Gold Coast estates. Designing for Roslyn means understanding preservation, respecting architectural heritage, and knowing when a historic home needs restoration versus when it needs a thoughtful modern intervention.

Why Roslyn Homeowners Choose CP Interiors

Roslyn's housing stock includes some of the oldest and most architecturally significant homes on the North Shore. The Roslyn Heights Historic District alone contains 77 homes built between the mid-1800s and early 1900s, with styles ranging from traditional colonials to Stick Victorian and Queen Anne. These homes require a designer who understands period architecture—who knows the difference between a 1900 picture rail and a 1940s chair rail, and who can source materials that match the home's era.

But Roslyn is not a museum. The community also includes the larger estate properties of East Hills and Roslyn Harbor, where homeowners are undertaking significant renovations and additions. Crystal Photiou excels at the balance that Roslyn demands: respecting the historic character of a home while bringing in the functionality, comfort, and technology that a modern family needs. She works alongside your architect from the earliest sketches, ensuring that new construction integrates seamlessly with the original structure.

Crystal's background in fashion gives her a particular sensitivity to color and texture that serves Roslyn's historic homes well. She brings actual fabric and stone samples to your home so you can feel a material in the space where it will live—a finish that looks right in a showroom rarely looks the same in a 150-year-old Roslyn parlor.
