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.

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.

Read on to learn about the team, see our progress, and explore renderings of the backyard and primary bathroom.

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.
