We honored the building’s history where possible, keeping original bones and character wherever possible, then layered in the clients’ distinct creative identity. On the main floor, we designed spaces that shift seamlessly from workday to reception-ready. Lighting was planned with intention, to preserve the original plaster ceilings and spotlight rotating installations without sacrificing ambient warmth. Custom built-ins maximize functionality while maintaining a distinctly un-officey feel. Upstairs, the artist apartment is a thoughtful retreat: adaptable, light-filled, and comfortable, with just enough quirk to spark inspiration. Even the basement—home to a full photography studio and workroom—balances technical needs with aesthetic ease. Throughout, we used color, texture, and collected pieces to ensure each room feels curated, not staged. Personal, not polished.

The client’s kitchen initially lacked the storage, workspace, and lighting needed to support everyday living and entertaining. The redesign was centered on creating a kitchen that feels both highly functional and effortlessly refined. Expansive countertops and tailored custom cabinetry transformed the space, providing abundant storage and eliminating visual clutter. Layered lighting—including sleek recessed under-cabinet lighting and additional recessed ceiling fixtures—creates a warm, inviting atmosphere while enhancing task efficiency. The two-toned custom cabinetry, with white upper cabinets, was intentionally selected to open up the space visually, giving the kitchen a brighter, more expansive feel that the client can truly enjoy day to day.

This backyard remodel was designed with clean, geometric lines to create a modern, organized outdoor space that feels open and intentional. Interlocking pavers were laid in a consistent pattern to define the patio area and provide a durable, low-maintenance surface, while artificial turf was installed with crisp edges to soften the layout without losing structure. Careful attention was given to alignment, transitions, and proportions to ensure everything feels balanced and cohesive. The result is a polished outdoor area that highlights simplicity, function, and long-term ease of maintenance.

The brief was simple: create an elevated ‘surf shack’ for a laid back family of surfers on the northeast coast. Inspired heavily by the deep blues and warm textures of the coastline, this home maintained the charm of the surrounding architecture but took a step towards modernity. We kept things primarily light and bright, but were intentional to include materials that will patina and grow more beautiful with time such as unlacquered brass finishes, worn wood, hand-shaped kiln-fired zellige tile, concretes, linens, mudcloths, and various vintage textiles. The result is a home that feels inviting and warm; a space where the homeowners and their guests alike can feel at ease.
