Our design studio does so much more than manage construction projects — we love decorating. From space planning for furniture to sourcing real-world items that make your home functional and beautiful, our approach to interior decorating is deeply personal. Decorating isn’t just about creating a Pinterest-worthy space; it’s about designing for you.

Natural oak floors and white walls in a dining room with NYC skyline views, designed by Sarah Scales.

When homeowners see a big, empty, white apartment, they panic. But designer see possibility. Say hello to our latest project: a brand-new Upper East Side apartment. Think killer views, chic finishes, and a mix of furnishings; plus colorful, contemporary art. Right now, it’s all potential—but check out the building and imagine what’s to come (and work with us too!).

As an interior designer with a passion for New England design, I often travel to Martha’s Vineyard to work on unique projects. Recently, I transformed a luxury waterfront home in Edgartown, adding color, character, and livability within a tight budget and timeline. What was once an empty, white-walled house is now a vibrant, welcoming space ready for family and guests.

Renovating historic homes in New England is both a challenge and an art form. It requires a thoughtful balance between preserving the charm of the past and incorporating the necessities of modern living. From colonial-era farmhouses to Victorian brownstones and Arts and Crafts gems, these homes hold stories in their walls. Whether it’s a plaster medallion or an original marble fireplace, each speaks to the craft of a bygone era.
