Westhampton Penthouse

Our clients, who split time between Texas and Virginia, hired us to lead the design of their new Richmond penthouse, from space planning, custom millwork, and elegant finishes to custom furnishings and the finest decorative touches. Aiming for equal parts formality and comfort, we were entrusted to curate new and antique furnishings from across the globe, resulting in the haven they envisioned for entertaining family and friends.

Gracious Georgian

Built in the 1930s, this beautiful brick home was poised for its second act when our clients fell in love with it at first glance. The homeowners could see its potential but also recognized that the house lacked good flow and a space plan that would optimally support their lively family of four. To bring their vision to life, we teamed up with architect John K. Voight and builder Brian Davis of Davis Design Company. While honoring the architectural integrity of the original home, we introduced modern amenities, a generous floor plan and lively yet elegant touches . The result is a harmonious blend of classic character and contemporary comfort.

Charming English Cottage

From its storybook curb appeal to it’s beautifully tended gardens, this home is an enchanting retreat. Over the years, we’ve had the joy of working closely with the homeowners to thoughtfully shape the interiors – making this one of our most cherished passion projects. With complete trust in our vision and process, the homeowners allowed us to create a richly layered home that feels both personal and welcoming. Warm palettes, cozy gathering spaces, and thoughtfully chosen textiles and wall-coverings come together in harmony with the home’s character and surroundings. Our aim was for every room to feel distinct and curated – a process that unfolds over time. The result is a home that feels intentional, comfortable and uniquely theirs.

Classic Colonial

This thoughtfully refreshed colonial home is a celebration of pattern, color and the layered details that make a house a home. Our clients – avid travelers with a meaningful collection of family heirlooms – wanted a space that reflected their experiences while still feeling relaxed and livable. A key transformation came from reimagining the home’s footprint: by demoing a tight and underused existing room, then reimagining and adding crucial square footage, we created a versatile gathering space that has truly changed the way their family lives day to day. The result is a home that feels timeless, collected and distinctly personal – rooted in function, comfort and the stories that make it theirs.

Windsor Farms Colonial Revival

This house was the ideal fit in many ways for a lively family of five, but it needed updating throughout and was ripe with opportunity for an improved space plan on the first floor. A complete redesign of the kitchen, laundry, mudroom, and butler’s pantry spaces now better serve the family’s needs and improve the flow between rooms. The home is now beautifully composed of new and old furnishings and rich layers of color, pattern, and texture that reflect the vibrancy and character of the family.

Classic Cape

Just after moving to this charming Cape from an elegant equestrian homestead, our clients hired us to design a renovation of the kitchen and primary suite and to fill in the decorative details throughout the home to complement their existing furnishings. We carefully selected the materials, colors, and interior architectural details to harmonize with the classic architecture of their new home and their treasured antiques, art, and hunt country accouterments. The result is a fresh variation on a Richmond classic that feels warm and familiar to its owners.

Historic Longwood Estate

Longwood House, a historic Federal-style farmhouse circa 1815, is home to Longwood University’s president and his family. Our charge was to update the home in a manner that supported not only the young family living there but also the university community and guests for special events frequently held at the home. Select early antiques and an impressive art collection from the University conveyed with the project, and we enhanced these elements with appointments that honor the history of the home and increase the functionality, flow, and appeal of the space.

Stone Country House

We were honored to assist our clients with furnishings for their beautiful new home on an expansive estate that rivals many parks in its undulating terrain, towering trees, and long vistas. We organized furniture plans to optimize the extraordinary surrounding views and selected furnishings, textiles, and antique rugs to complement the homeowner’s vast art collection and the beautiful custom millwork throughout the home.

Westhampton Office

Our client desired a high-end residential feel for their new office space in a mixed-use property. From the space planning, millwork details, and the look and feel of the finishes and furnishings, in many ways, we approached this project as we would a residential project but with the programming considerations required for comfortable and efficient business functions.

Designer House Den

We were honored to be chosen to design a room for the 2023 Richmond Symphony League Designer House, an Italian Renaissance Revival home built in 1915 and designed by renowned architect Duncan Lee. Our room, the Den, is full of remarkable Tudor-style architectural details—richly stained oak wall paneling, a plaster relief barrel vault ceiling, jib doors, and a monumental gothic fireplace. We followed these visual cues in conceiving a space ideal for unplugged family gatherings that honors the original character and warmth of the room. A vintage English Knole sofa reimagined in a whimsical pattern set forth a dynamic palette that we carried through in custom wool draperies, cinnamon linen club chairs, a collection of antique boxes, a vintage Moroccan rug, and a collection of artwork that enlivens and enriches the space.
