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.

I finally pulled together a much-needed FAQ page for my website. Sorting through the best questions took time, but I wanted to provide clear answers—check them out here. Most FAQs cover how I work, my process, and my credentials. But a few stand out. Today, I’m diving into the three most common interior design questions, answered over the years and collected from web inquiries, friends, colleagues, and clients.

Over the past year, we’ve been elbows-deep in our latest Boston brownstone renovation, restoring it for a young couple with an eye for Scandinavian design and European influences. She’s a Massachusetts native, he trails from London. Each bring their own version of ‘classic’ and ‘modern’ to the design. Read on to learn about the team, see our progress, and explore renderings of the backyard and primary bathroom.

Welcome to the nitty-gritty, behind-the-scenes look at our interior design process. Spoiler alert: It’s not magic, but it’s close. We’re talking spreadsheets, software, and systems—all powered by caffeine and sheer determination. Designing your dream home takes work, but with our methodical process, we make it feel effortless (for you, at least).

We provide interior design services across Greater Boston and New England, including the South Shore, MetroWest, Cape Cod, Rhode Island, Vermont — and beyond. We specialize in blending timeless design with contemporary style. As Boston interior designers, we draw on the region’s architectural history and diverse landscapes to create spaces that feel both authentic and uniquely suited to their surroundings.

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.

Three. Whole. Years. That’s how long we’ve been planning, designing, and building our R Street new construction beach house. Our clients moved in this past May (finally!), and we’re putting the final touches on it. We just installed final art and small furniture, and finished photography is scheduled for Spring 2025. All exterior architecture designed by Owen Thomas, and all interior architectural design (and decorating) by us.
