The Story.

Creating a home, the French Market way.

Our dream has always been to create a space that leaves you with a sense that you have just traveled to a different world. A space where all of your senses were tickled and where you always left wanting more.

Part of this dream has always been to have pieces that could travel home with you so that your sacred place could too become somewhere where you feel happy, content, alive, and inspired.

We believe that your home should always make you feel things (good things of course!) and by selecting the right pieces you can create beauty that feels alive within your favorite rooms at home.

 

One thing we have learned from our travels is that creating a space that feels right, takes time. It does not happen overnight! The perfect spaces come alive by selecting curated pieces over time, with the play of mixing textures, styles, and elements that sometimes do not belong together. Through years of collecting and scavenging pieces that you actually love and truly tell a story of a time and place you know longingly remember.  This is the only we believe a home design can truly come alive.

 

The French Market, in Rumson, NJ in 2015, with the vision of bringing pieces of her South African and French heritage to the beautiful town she now calls home.

The French Market was designed as her personal canvas on which she curated a careful collection of unique and elevated elements to create a space that is reflective of a lifestyle. She brings her talents to life with careful storytelling, making sure each element of her designs takes its form in a purposeful way.

Inspired by her love for the old world and all its sophistication, she designs and incorporates timeless, elevated design styles pulling from her deep French, Dutch and South African roots. 

 

 

Carli has an impressive background in both creating and designing and combines the things she loves in this picturesque market, where she handpicks beautiful pieces you can fill your home with. 

She also specialized in creating custom home and faux floral designs for private clients.
