Florence Knoll didn’t just shape the look of mid-century modern furniture—she hired the people who defined it. Her collaborations with Eero Saarinen led to some of the most enduring furniture designs of the 20th century, and they still show up in our projects today. Mid-century pieces like the Womb Chair, Tulip Chair, and Tulip Table—designed by Saarinen for Knoll—pairs with the Executive Chair, designed by Knoll herself.
This post is a little shout-out to some of the people we love in the New England interior design industry. We’re starting with our friend and colleague, Ellisha Alexina—a talented New England fabric designer whose work we’ve admired for years. A Massachusetts native, her designs come to life in Boston, and her textiles are made in Western Massachusetts. We love local.
We’re thrilled to share a collection of luxury textiles & custom pillows included in our latest project in New York City. These bespoke pieces—small upholstered side chairs and unique throw pillows—feature materials from our favorite fabric houses. Some from domestic sources, others from Europe and beyond, but all celebrate the art of textile design. Rich colors, striking patterns, and details bring personality to our Lenox Hill project.

Many new homeowners face sticker shock when they realize just how much furniture is needed to fill a home. On top of that, balancing personal style with budget constraints can feel overwhelming.
Our holiday gift to you: updates on our Upper East Side apartment design! Earlier this month, we stopped by our NYC project to review the paint, wallpaper, and light fixture installation. The first deliveries of furniture arrived, featuring many custom pieces, mid-century modern elements, and items from our client’s home in Concord, Massachusetts.
One of our favorite projects was transforming the parlor level of a stunning brownstone. This brownstone interior design project required a careful balance of style and functionality to bring our client’s vision to life. After an extensive renovation, we stepped in to furnish and decorate the main living areas. Our client, overwhelmed with decision fatigue, had a clear aesthetic vision – see how we pulled it all together.
