Our Look Back at 2025
Every year, we love taking a moment to look back at the projects and partnerships that made it special. 2025 brought so many highlights, and revisiting them always fuels our creativity for what’s ahead. We hope our year-in-review inspires you, too.
From award-winning hospitality projects and publication features to long-awaited project reveals and exciting new client journeys, 2025 was filled with milestones that celebrated thoughtful design, strong collaboration, and the joy of creating spaces that truly elevate the way people live.
big design moments
One of the most exciting moments of 2025 was the completion of our A Splash Color project. More than a year in the making, the design approach for this Cambridge-based Victorian home was brought to life through custom craftsmanship and showstopping architectural details. We can’t wait to officially reveal it in 2026! We also wrapped up work on Bold Design Meets Suburban Serenity, an empty-nester Concord project that added bold design details to a calming space, and Vibrant Family-Focused Renewal, a modern, functional design that honors the home’s original architecture. On the hospitality side, we were thrilled to reveal our design work at Wequassett Resort and Golf Club, giving this beloved classic a much-needed refresh.
A couple of projects you can expect to see more of in the coming year, take us from the NH mountains with Four Seasons Mountain Retreat to the RI coastline, with Refined Sophisticated Getaway, and the shores of Cape Cod with Shore Haven boutique hotel projects.
Travel Continues to Inspire
Travel was front and center again this year! Along with annual repeats to Big Sky, MT, and Rancho La Puerta Wellness Resort and Spa in Mexico, additional highlights included trips to Charleston, SC, and Madrid with the Design Leadership Network, NYC for the ICFF and BDNY industry events and London to attend design et al’s 2025 International Design & Architecture Awards. We also found time to explore art and culture around the world—Rachel in Paris, Venice, and Granada; Erin in Croatia and Slovenia; Kristina in Italy and the Azores; Carla in Scotland; Kyra in Prague and Budapest; and Jake in Amsterdam and Germany.
Industry Recognition
The year both began and ended with recognition from Modern Luxury Interiors New England, with our win as a Best of Luxury Design Award recipient for Hospitality Design and later with a Design 9 award for the primary suite in our Multigenerational Ocean Oasis project. This home was featured on the cover of New England Home’s May–June issue, our 3rd cover feature with the magazine!
On the hotel side, Architectural Digest online spotlighted The Coco and Field Guide, Rhode Island Monthly featured The Cliffside Inn, and Wequassett was named Boston Magazine’s 2025 Best of Boston Resort, Cape Cod, and recognized as one of Forbes’ 2025 Hotel Icons!
This year, for the first time, we attended design et al’s 2025 International Design & Architecture Awards as a Designer of the Year finalist and were nominated in multiple categories. Looking ahead, our Multigenerational Ocean Oasis project has also been shortlisted for five additional design et al 2026 awards. Stay close for voting details in the coming year.
And finally, we closed out the year by being recognized as Best Interior Designer, Contemporary in Boston Home’s Best of Boston Home awards. We also celebrated another milestone: 2025 marked Reider + Co’s debut in the AD PRO Directory, joining a curated community of leading design studios around the world.
