Welcome to the thrilling saga of turning a brand-new, personality-free house into a warm, inviting mountain retreat in Stowe, Vermont. As a Vermont interior designer, we took on a space that started out with all the charm of a blank canvas—literally, it was just walls. But we didn’t let that stop us. With a bit of vision, and a lot of coffee, we set out to create a spaces that scream comfort, perfect for enjoying the beauty of all seasons.

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.

Designing kitchens and baths is about more than just creating beautiful spaces. It’s about crafting rooms that are functional, ergonomic, and tailored to your specific needs. At Sarah Scales Interior Design, we specialize in kitchen and bath design in Boston and beyond, delivering exceptional results that blend luxury with practicality.

New England’s outdoor living season may be brief, but it’s incredibly rewarding. These months invite full enjoyment of the outdoors, where thoughtful design makes every moment special. From charming garden patios in Boston brownstones to expansive decks on Martha’s Vineyard, New England design focuses on creating outdoor spaces that complement their natural surroundings and elevate everyday living.

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 adding the final touches. Finishings and photography are set for Spring 2025.
