Bright & Blue

This single-family Boston brownstone update shows how modern design sensibilities can complement classic architecture. We provided full-service interior design including kitchen cabinetry design, millwork detailing, furniture selection, and design procurement for this family home. As the interior designer, our goal was a home that feels welcoming for their children, their dog, and the guests still to come.

Our client described a love of blue, cool gray, and bright tones, and was drawn to our suggestion of layering in rust and terracotta for warmth and contrast. The homeowners' aesthetic is modern with a classic twist so shaker panels take on a more modern profile, painted finishes sit alongside rich wood stains, and brass finishes were chosen for their patina and interesting silhouettes. A few playful wallpapers add pattern throughout the home.
