We just photographed this new construction beach house, finished last summer—but we held off sharing it until the good light returned (translation: no winter shrubs or grey skies). The extra time gave us room to sort out window treatments, hang art, and layer in the final touches. The photos are in, we’ve sent them off to a few media outlets, and now we wait—cue fingers crossed, and maybe a group manifest. We’re proud of this one…
It’s been a while since we shared progress on our K Street project, and while we’ve shared updates on Instagram, the journal posts have been quiet. With six weeks (ish) left in construction, it felt like the right time to offer a peek. This brownstone renovation leans into classic architecture and timeless materials—always our favorite combination. As historic home designers, we’re always balancing restoration and reinvention.
We’ve designed countless kitchens—some modern, some traditional—all beautiful in their own way. After years of experience, we’ve rounded up the five features that best suit a classic New England kitchen. These details work well in at coastal properties, a farmhouse, or any home with historic or traditional architecture. These ideas will keep it both livable and aligned with the character of the Northeast.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, let’s talk kitchens—the heart of the home. As a Boston kitchen designer, I’ve tackled some pretty unforgettable projects. Some are fresh, others historic, and a few date back to my earliest work. While some of these projects no longer grace my portfolio, they hold a special place in my design journey. Let’s dive into some standout spaces from a collection of our work.
Investing in custom cabinets pays off in any renovation or new build. While semi-custom and off-the-shelf options might seem budget-friendly, they often come with design limits and gaps that look “budget.” We love working with local artisans who bring flexibility, faster fixes, and quality. For this project, we teamed up with a millworker in New Hampshire, learn about their beautiful, unique craftsmanship.

There’s something magical about fireplaces in historic New England homes. They’re not just spots to warm up—they’re like time machines wrapped in marble, brick and tile. Each one is an architectural gem, full of charm and stories from centuries past. So, grab a seat (preferably near a fire) and let’s take a little journey through some of the most captivating and cozy fireplaces we’ve had the pleasure of reviving.
Welcome to Fall/Winter—also known as the season of the sticks for New England homes (cue Noah Kahan). The magical time of year when boots come in caked with mud, sticks find their way into every crevice, and your once-organized space looks like the aftermath of a nature hike. Let’s talk about how this humble room can be your first defense against the chaos and maybe even look good doing it.
If you’re a brownstone lover, you know the charm: intricate plaster moldings, original details, and vintage fireplaces. In this South End project, we celebrated a historic brownstone renovation while designing a layout for modern living. With en-suite bedrooms, a luxurious primary suite, and a cozy guest suite, this home blends history and function. As a Boston interior designer, we honored the past while creating a fresh, livable space.
We focused on honoring the home’s classic architecture while subtly updating it with modern furnishings for this full home renovation project in Hingham. We stayed true to historic home design principals, and reconfigured spaces WITHOUT extending beyond to original footprint of the house. The studio improved the floor plan, refreshed rooms with paint and wallpaper, and introduced details that feel both fresh and timeless.
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.
