Ten years taught me where most projects go wrong.
Hire me for the whole formula or the one piece no one else gets right. either way, this is what to expect while working with me.
The Room. The Find. The Finish. At Every Stage.
-
I do not work from a set package. I size every decision to the actual room and the way you live in it. The cookie-cutter is the thing I am trying to get you out of.
-
My job is not to hand you a look. It is to find the approach already yours and help it become the version you actually want to live in.
-
I coordinate with trades, read what a space can actually do, and protect quality from the drawing to the wall. You do not need to translate anything or fight any battles alone.
-
When a selection will fail under real use. When a spec is off. When the easy choice is the expensive one in three years. I advocate for the space and for you, even when it is the harder conversation.
-
I locate and restore vintage pieces myself. I know when something is worth saving and what it takes to get it there. The sourcing is half the work and the half that makes a space impossible to replicate.
-
Contract-grade thinking applied to a home. Correct yardage through trade vendors. Window treatments addressed properly. Durability built in from the first decision, not corrected at the end.
-
Trade relationships with the houses that matter and local hands most designers never find. Woodworkers, textile artists, small studios across Rhode Island and New England. Pieces with people behind them.
-
Sourcing, ordering, lead times, vendor follow-up, install logistics. I hold all of it. You make the calls that matter and keep living your life.
-
One room or the whole house, now or in ten years. One person who knows your space, your taste, and your formula. You do not start over. You call me.
