Interior Design Services: Have Acura, Will Travel
We’re based in Boston. But that doesn’t mean being tied down. Whether it’s a city apartment, a mountain retreat, or a European getaway, we approach every project the same: With attention to detail and love for the craft.
New England is a place that clings to its history while keeping one foot firmly planted in the present. Our job as interior designers is to honor that tension, to embrace the quirks and contradictions of every space we touch. From a historic brownstone to a ski retreat tucked away in the mountains, the goal is always the same. To create something timeless and deeply personal. Designing here means stepping into a story that’s already been written—and then figuring out how to make it your own. It’s equal parts respect and reinvention, a balancing act that keeps things interesting (and us up at night). Read on to discover how the distinctive character of each area influences our design approach.
Beantown Beauties
This is the kind of city where you can’t escape history, and why would you want to? It’s in the cobblestones and the brick facades. The oversized brownstone windows that flood a room with light even on a cloudy day. The challenge is making these spaces work for how people live now, without sanding off all their character.
One project, featured in Boston Home, involved transforming a South End brownstone while keeping its soul intact. Upstairs, a roof deck offers a slice of serenity—because sunsets just hit differently when you’re perched above the city. In another brownstone design, an original fireplace is the focal point of a living room that blended classic charm with a fresh perspective.
Designing in Boston means leaning into the quirks. Those tiny entryways are a chance to make a big impression. The old millwork is our best friend. And yes, you probably need a roof deck—trust me on this. We love working in and around Boston, and we’re happy to bring this show in the road.
Salt Air Hits Different
The South Shore has a way of slowing everything down. Maybe it’s the salt air or the ocean views, but designing here feels like an exhale. The spaces are elegant but unpretentious, just like the coastline they call home.
A pool house renovation, featured in New England Home Magazine, captured this perfectly. The design was simple but intentional, with finishes that can stand up to wet towels and furniture that practically begs you to sit down and stay awhile. Inside, a contemporary bathroom proves that even utility spaces can be beautiful.
Coastal homes have a rhythm of their own, and the best designs honor that. It’s not about filling every corner—it’s about letting the light in. Keeping things open, and making room for the life that happens there. From historic renovations in Hingham and Cohasset, to new construction in Hull and Duxbury, the South Shore has our heart (and our portfolio).
Just Outside the City…
Suburban homes might not get the same buzz as their coastal or city counterparts, but their impact is undeniable. Step outside the city lines and you start to see some real New Englanders. These projects are designed for real life—where livability meets thoughtful design. Every detail works together to support how people live day-to-day.
We designed a natural oak kitchen in Westwood featured in Boston Globe Magazine with this in mind. The cabinets are as practical as they are beautiful, with a marble countertop that can handle everything from toddler spills to holiday baking marathons. A primary bathroom renovation in Dover embraces a similar philosophy: timeless, functional, and with just the right touch of luxury. Over the years, we’ve reimagined countless kitchens in this area, including another Westwood kitchen (with moody grey cabinets) that graced the cover of Boston Home.
Headed Down The Cape
Growing up summering on the Cape means our team is well-versed in bridge traffic, relentless weekend traffic and quaint shingle-style homes. Managing projects mid-ferry in the dead of winter might not be glamorous, but with our team’s expertise (and Sarah’s outerwear know-how), we’re ready to take on any nor’easter. We’ve successfully managed several build-outs on the islands during winter months. From Falmouth to Osterville and Nantucket to Martha’s Vineyard, we design spaces that welcome sandy feet but leave no room for bad design. Explore some of our recent projects: a backyard deck at a waterfront Edgartown home, a 70’s beach shack renovation, and a roof deck (we definitely have this thing with roof decks).
Northern Comfort
There’s something about the rugged beauty of Northern New England that demands a design response. These homes need to feel warm and inviting, but they also have to hold their own against snow, rain, and everything else the region throws at them.
A recent project in Vermont brought rustic charm and modern elegance together under one roof. Think layered textures, cozy furniture, and just enough sleekness to keep things interesting. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to light a fire, pour a drink, and settle in for the season.
Designing here is about more than aesthetics. It’s about creating spaces that feel connected to the land, the weather, and the people who call them home.
Upper East Side Style, Delivered Anywhere
While New England will always be home, our work sometimes takes us further afield. A high-rise apartment in Lenox Hill proved that timeless design travels well. The space combines custom lighting, wallpaper from Zak & Fox, and Verellen furniture for a look that’s both polished and personal.
Design That Travels, Wherever You Call Home
Every home tells a story, and our job is to make sure it’s a good one. From Boston to the Cape, the mountains to Manhattan, the spaces we design reflect the people who live in them.
It’s about more than furniture and finishes. It’s about creating places that feel alive, that make life a little easier. A little more beautiful, and a lot more intentional.
