Vibrant Family-Focused Renewal

chestnut hill, MA

Chestnut Hill living room with textured wallpaper, rich earth tones, and custom drapery overlooking a lush suburban Boston setting.

One of our earliest clients returned to us over a decade later, ready to create a modern, functional home for her active family of five (plus a beloved dog). With three teenagers and a lively household, the goal was to bring cohesion, comfort, and contemporary style to every corner of their new home.

We focused on durability without sacrificing design—layering vibrant patterns, jewel tones, and metallic accents with clean-lined furnishings that reflect our client’s modern sensibilities.

In collaboration with Grassi Design Group and Connaughton Construction, we transformed the home to meet the demands of everyday life while elevating its aesthetic. In the living room, deep blues accentuate original molding, while plush seating keeps the space relaxed and inviting. The kitchen and mudroom were designed for high functionality, featuring custom cabinetry and richly hued tiles. Calacatta Viola marble, custom vanities, and bold wallcoverings bring personality and polish to the bathrooms. Throughout the home, distinctive lighting doubles as sculpture—each piece selected to spark a moment.

The finished design honors the home’s original architecture while ushering in a fresh, modern aesthetic—built for beauty, comfort, and real life.
