Bringing a client’s vision to fruition is our passion and our latest project is designing a custom desk that goes from sitting to standing at the touch of a button. The fine craftsmen at Aronson Woodworks help us bring our detailed plans to life and we love collaborating with them every step of the way.

Figuring out your style preferences may feel daunting at first. Are you modern? What’s the difference between modern and contemporary? What if you like some rustic elements? I encourage you not to get hung up on questions like these. In fact, although there is always a kernel of truth to how people identify their style, I find it can be limiting to try to put a label on what you like because there are so many style subsets. Instead, I’ve developed a method for honing in on the details you love, so I can create a personalized design that reflects what truly makes you happy.

It’s a happy day when Elle Decor features one of our downtown Boston projects. We recently designed a Back Bay penthouse that blended Victorian architectural details with contemporary elements for a look that’s truly unique and timeless.

As summer moves ahead full sail, many of us are embarking on our summer vacations. For some, that means spending lazy chunks of time with family and friends at vacation homes. You want your second home to reflect your relaxed mindset, and be low-maintenance, casual, and usable. When it’s all said and done, you don’t want to be greeted with a long to-do list, you just want to arrive and spend time with the people you love. Thoughtful design helps maintain a chill vibe in your vacation home and keeps it easy to maintain.

Our two daughters recently finished kindergarten and third-grade and it’s time to start a whole new routine. We’re hoping our summer includes many visits to the beach and our colorful house on Cape Cod. Designing our own summer home was a fun process and it continues to evolve.

Entering the office today was such a sigh of relief after a few days spent on client visits and a photo shoot in Weston. I love being on a job site but some days I just need to sit in front of a computer and catch up on logistics. Office spaces should be functional yet creative and ours is no different.

After 12 years of designing boutique hotels, I’ve seen how my hospitality design knowledge helps me make smarter, more creative choices for my residential clients. I’ve picked up countless tips and tricks along the way, and want to share a few with you.

It's been a busy spring for us at Rachel Reider Interiors. Along with kicking off several new projects, we were featured in six magazines. Here are some extra details on four of them!

I recently had the pleasure of having one of my spaces featured in the premiere issue of Rise. If you’re unfamiliar with the publication, you won’t be for long. It’s hot off the presses from New England Home—their first-ever urban design magazine.

If you find yourself craving clean-lined interior design, you’re not alone. Especially in Boston, where there is historical emphasis on traditional-style decorating, I find that both younger generations of homeowners and empty-nesters are looking for something fresh.
