Hello! My name is Lisa Mende from Lisa Mende Design. Thank you so much Erin for allowing me to guest post for your readers, while you are on holiday with your family.

When you asked me to guest blog, my mind immediately went to the bedroom and bath, Robin Baron designed for Ronald McDonald Long Island Project Design Phase Two. While the room isn't turquoise from head to toe, it does have turquoise as the exclamation point of the room.


















The initial renovation of the Ronald McDonald House Long Island was a ground breaking effort by Kravet and designer, Anthony Baratta with additional support by New York Cottages and Garden Magazine in 2013 and was called Project Design 2013. Phase One included renovations of 18 bedrooms, kitchen, breakfast room, five common areas, first floor restrooms, and three laundry rooms.

This year, Project Design Phase Two was completed. Traci Zeller and I had the honor of being asked to participate along with 43 designers from across the United States. One of the highlights of working on Project Design Phase Two, was meeting families who stay in the house, while their sick children are being treated in area hospitals. It was a reminder how important our environment can be in healing, when dealing with life threatening traumatic illnesses. This project was very meaningful to Traci and I. It was fun to meet new designers working on Phase Two, as well as reconnecting with old friends, like Robin Baron of Robin Baron Design of New York City whose work I'm sharing today.

Robin's bedroom featured beautiful custom wallpaper by Fromental, custom bonnet beds, and custom fabrics, all designed by Robin. I am including a complete list below for reference. Robin's vision was to provide a happy, comforting, and healing environment for the families who stay in the room. I think she achieved just that!
