We're getting to know Cohencierge's Courtney Brene Corbin pretty well these days—and today she tells us about her own design style and what dance and fashion-filled experiences landed her in the DDB's lobby ready to help you. Here's what we learned from our afternoon with Courtney.
GDG: What is your personal design style?
CBC: My apartment is pretty contemporary with the exception of the pieces I have picked up while traveling. One of my favorite pieces in my home is a gorgeous tapestry I purchased in Paris from a woman that has a small import/export business between Paris and India. Another is a lovely hand carved sculpture I picked up in South Africa from two Zambian artists. I really enjoy homes that have rich accents representing different cultures.
GDG: What is your ideal personal interior style if you had no limitations?
CBC: Chic Chic Chic! My favorite designer is Chanel and my favorite time period for fashion is the 1920s. I just adored when women dressed like women and everything was so classy and tailored like a gem!
GDG: What is your favorite room to decorate?
CBC: My living room; I love decorating it and just being in it. I live near Lincoln Center and have nice open windows giving my apartment a warm, yet open feel. There are endless design possibilities for me to design and redesign around in my living room!
GDG: Do you have any fun facts about yourself to share?
CBC: I played the character "Uniqua" in the hit children's show The Backyardigans for the original pilot. I was unable to continue on as the character because I decided to take a position with the dance company in college.
In college, I modeled for Harpers Bazaar Japan and did a couple of fun dance/modeling collaborations for Issey Miyake in Tribeca. I've also done a lot of photo shoots for magazines, a commercial for Target, speaking on taxi tv for Alvin Ailey, and met and was able to wear a gorgeous Badgley Mischka dress for our Alvin Ailey Gala!
Tomorrow we'll learn about the Cohencierge service and Courtney will share some impressive and wild client requests that Cohencierge has had no trouble working around. You can contact Courtney by calling 646-556-7060 or emailing her at Courtney.corbin@quintessentially.com to set up your Cohencierge powered by Quintessentially membership.
