Spaces: Kim and Dave West, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn

Occupations: Kim West, Wholesale Marc Jacobs/Dave West, Real Estate


































Kim and her husband Dave (not pictured) have a knack for buying and renovating New York apartments. In the last 3 years, they have made some key changes to their Cobble Hill hill two-bedroom apartment. They have remodeled the kitchen, repainted the entire apartment (painting the natural wood crown molding white) and converted the powder room to a full-size bathroom. The 2nd floor brownstone apartment still includes the Pre War details such as 2 fireplaces and quaint architectural elements, but when you walk in, it feels new, pristine and refreshing. To the right of the living room is a dining area/office which can also serve as a guestroom. How could I forget the flower-pot-trimmed terrace which is manicured to perfection? I still can't get over that kitchen. Finally, as you can see in the photos, their two pugs--Smudge and Bella--reign full court at the West's home.

  1. Kim and Dave have an absolutely lovely home in Brooklyn. It reflects their impeccable taste and style. This blog reflects a modern couple that have achieved their dream of home/hearth and appear to surround their world with comfort and grace. The dogs, that reign supreme, along with the floral outdoor decking, reflect Brooklyn as a loveable/liveable place and space. Praise and kudos to the West family with their babies Bella and Smudge!!! Old world charm, modern tone.
