Over the past few months, I’ve been working alongside Julian Porcino on home staging projects, and it’s quickly become one of the most creatively fulfilling parts of my life. Julian’s work isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about presence, intention, and creating spaces that feel aligned, calm, and full of life.
We’ve worked on homes in Columbia County (where we’re both based), New York City, and the Berkshires — each with its own rhythm and personality. Whether it's a rural farmhouse or a city apartment, the process is rooted in the same principle: listening to the space and letting it speak.
Personally, I love the full range of it. Moving furniture around, digging through someone’s home to see what they already have, noticing what can be used in a new way. There’s something special about finding character in a forgotten object — giving it new meaning just by changing its placement.
Julian has a sharp and soulful eye, and what I appreciate most is how collaborative he is. He asks for my opinion, lets me style corners, and values the way I see things. It’s not just about filling a space — it’s about building a feeling together.
I’ve also started sourcing pieces for him — vintage items, art books, small objects with texture and soul. And lately, I’ve been painting abstract works that have ended up in some of the staged homes. Seeing them on the walls feels quietly powerful. Like leaving a small part of myself in a space that’s about to become someone else’s future.
Beyond staging, Julian is also a licensed real estate agent and a breathwork facilitator — which honestly makes a lot of sense. His work is holistic: body, space, energy. It’s about helping people feel more connected, more grounded, more in tune with what they want from the places they live in and move through.

If you’re looking to transform a space — whether for selling, settling in, or just finding a new sense of balance — I’d love to connect. I bring a careful eye, a love of details, and a real joy in helping create rooms that feel right. And if you’re interested in working with Julian, I can’t recommend him enough.
