Pattern Repeat 🎶🎼🎶🎼

The pattern repeat in this drapery and upholstery story creates a subtle shift in scale, defining a cozy, carved-out corner.

Highlighting familiarity through repetition invites the sublime inside and welcomes an unfamiliar world of rest and renewal… 💭🧭 🌊🌅

Can you see it now? 👀 🔭

The way the light is turning up? 💡☀️✨

Where in your spaces is there an opportunity to see what you couldn’t during the denser winter months?

To awaken your sight line, ask yourself: What wants to shine in my bedroom this Spring Equinox?

It’s waiting for you.

Take action. 🎬

Turn up your light. 🌅✌🏼🌊

Reawaken Your Space. ✨🌅

Notice as we move into light filled days, the time to uncover more of it inside of our homes. 🏡

Reframing a window in the kitchen by lifting its forgotten blinds, adding seasonal fruit and a potted plant adds a renewed, welcoming look. 👀🌎

Perhaps these changes summon the courage to step out into the world with a new vision from those reawakened spaces…🔭🧭🔎🌊💫

From atop the Nantucket Whaling Museum cupola amidst the panorama shines a fresh perspective of easing into 2024.

Encouraged by another direction, we are heading into authentic expressions of our voices and creative language to inspire our whole selves in the year ahead.

Fresh looks good on you… ✨🌊🧭

Every Room Tells A Story. ✨🧱🌊🏠

The rooms in our homes offer us a story of how we live.

As you reflect on the closing year, notice how you are in constant relationship to the layout and usage of these rooms.

How do your spaces serve to create a desirable outcome?

Bringing into alignment a more dynamic rhythm and balance of color, texture and light in these rooms would signal a shift in perspective to your personal life.

Let curiosity stir a desire to experiment with one room that’s calling your attention into a blossoming relationship to mirror the work, effort and awareness in your inner home equally valuable to the rooms in your foundational home.

May you pave a new path in 2024 creating something beautiful, shinning and radiant as a valuable place to reside. 🧭✨🌊

There’s No Place Like Home. 🏠🌊🌙

Where can you carve out your own personal niche to bring rest amongst the constant buzz of life?

Take notice of a hidden bench or a comfy chair that calls to you without telling a soul.

Imagine the inner silence that awaits you…🧘🏻‍♀️✨✌🏼

Meeting yourself at the front door...✨🏡🚪🌊

Imagine being greeted by your very self at your own front door each day. How do we receive our own generosity? What color would your front door be?

A home well designed from the inside makes space for a well lived life...✨🌊🤍

There’s just something about Nantucket…🌊💙

Our Bishops Rise project offers sweeping views of land, sea and sky. A picturesque backdrop to this island retreat.

That’s our kind of coastal.✌🏼🧭
