Sydney Frazier

Sydney Frazier has been practicing design in Manhattan for over twenty years, opening his eponymous firm in late 2013.

Sydney's aesthetic is informed by classic design elements and is thoroughly modern and unmistakably his. The firm's work is elegant, yet accessible, luxurious, yet livable and is individually catered to each client's wishes and tastes. Splitting his time between the city and upstate New York, Sydney brought his unique design sensibility and innate style to the Catskills with the 2020 opening of SUNDRY., a unique retail space where he offers a curated selection of home goods, apothecary items, and other essentials for a life well-lived.

A graduate of Elon College with a degree in Business Administration, Sydney also attended the New York School of Interior Design. His projects have been featured in numerous national publications and his diverse portfolio of work includes residential and commercial projects both in the United States and abroad. In addition to serving on the Design Advisory board of Rooms With a View, Sydney sits on the boards of the Mountain Top Arboretum and the Hunter Chamber of Commerce in Tannersville, NY and is a member of ASID.

Sydney was a member of the Rooms With a View Class of 22 and currently sits on the RWAV Design Advisory Board.

Victoria Vought

A graduate from Brown University with a degree in Art History & Architecture, Victoria ventured into acting before becoming a designer. Bringing her knowledge from Brown and Rhode Island School of Design, Victoria began working at MARILYN D GLASS, INC. in 1997 while she pursued acting.

Design soon became her full time career and Victoria Vought Designs was launched in 2002. Her projects, both commercial and residential, can be found in New York City, The Hamptons, New Jersey, Vermont, New Mexico and California.

Victoria understands that the world can be a stressful place and feels one’s home should feel calm and relaxed. In order to achieve this Victoria incorporates a mixture of comfortable furnishings, antiques, unique treasures and a subtle palette. She strongly believes that a home should be a reflection of the owner not the designer.  

Victoria has served as Co-Chair of the Design Advisory Board for the past three years, and was a member of the Class of 2013.

This is Victoria’s third year participating as a RWAV designer, and her second year designing The Hadley.

In addition to being a member of Screen Actors Guild, she is also a photographer and artist. Her photography has been recently featured at the George Billis Gallery and Rowayton Arts Center.
