I have a master's in interior architecture and design, which means I spent a few extra years learning how buildings think before I started changing what was inside them.
After that came a decade of commercial and hospitality work across DC, Providence, and New England. Spaces that had to perform under real use, real budgets, and real contractors. That work taught me what holds, what fails quietly, and where quality actually lives versus where it only pretends to.
At some point I stopped wanting to work at scale and started wanting to get every detail right. Those are not always the same ambition. I chose the details.
MODO is a lab because each client is a different method. You are not a style to be assigned. You are a set of rooms and a way of living in them, and my job is to find the approach that fits, then build the formula that lasts.
