A full-service Interior Design firm. We are a full service Interior Design studio designing and fabricating custom furnishings.

onal and regional print publications including The Huffington Post, This Old House Magazine, Design New England, Boston Globe, Boston Magazine, Boston Herald, Cybele, New England Home, and Rhode Island Monthly. Tomas Revesz, CEO at SmarterTravel:

“My wife and I have watched her work admiringly from afar having only had an opportunity to work on a small project a few years ago, which yielded an exquisite bathroom. In late-2019, though, we embarked on a project to build our dream home from scratch...right into the gaping maw of covid as it turns out. To say that we wouldn't have survived, much less enjoyed the experience without her would be an understatement. Not only is she a savant at design in every aspect (colors, materials, art, furniture, landscaping, etc.) and able to adapt to anyone's taste and style effortlessly, but she drove a patient, continuous, steady process of selection and decision making, room by room, knowing full well what supply chain issues were going crop up due to the pandemic, successfully pulling together the entire house in lockstep with the builder and right on schedule for move-in day. She's an absolute rock star at what she does and an amazing human being to boot!”

Liz Nichols, Atruis Healthcare

“Our dining room is now my favorite room in our home! Christine’s expertise has completely transformed our outdated dining room into a beautiful, warm, and elegant dining room, yet, functional for young children. Christine was a great listener and was able to bring creative ideas. I would highly recommend Christine.”

Kevin O'Connor, Host, This Old House, PBS

Christine has helped on several This Old House projects and each time she gave us terrific results. Her design sense is keen, her knowledge is deep, and most importantly she got the job done on time with smile. On top of that, she is a great scene partner on camera and a pleasure to work with.”

Colin Flavin, Principal and Founder, Flavin Architects

We had an outstanding experience collaborating with Christine Tuttle on the renovation and additions to a home in Wellesley. Our goal for the project was to seamlessly connect the interiors of the home to the private gardens to the south of the house. Christine's interiors were understated but at the same time had an outstanding presence in the home. She was able to weave modern and traditional design components into a seamless composition. She developed a palette of colors for the exterior that beautifully complemented the architectural design and was a respectful and easy to work with collaborator. I highly recommend Christine. Sarah Monzon, producer Bob Vila, This Old House, and The History Channel

Thoughtful, energetic, and the most knowledgeable designer I've met, Christine is great at teaming up with even the least "designer-y" clients and gelling creative solutions that sing for them while honoring the history and aesthetics of the surroundings. She is an encyclopedia of decorative arts know-how and guides the toughest choices for color, hardware, fixtures, furnishings and everything else with a minimum of fuss! Nancy Goldstein, Lighting Designer, Professor, Wentworth Institute

As an educator, I'm always looking for talented professionals who are willing to visit my classroom to share their expertise with the next generation of designers. Christine's breadth of experience proved to be a wonderful resource for my interior design students at Wentworth; she generously gave her time to thoughtfully and constructively critique their residential studio projects. The students truly enjoyed meeting and learning from her, and I hope she'll come back every year!

Meteorological Spring has officially arrived and I’ll certainly take it! ☀️
The shift in light this time of year in New England changes everything—especially how we experience our interiors. As the days lengthen, we’re leaning into "lighter and brighter" pared back rooms that capture that renewed energy.
Whether it’s through airy textiles, reflective surfaces, or a move toward more organic, tonal layers like this project, there is something so restorative about an interior that... breathes. Our Hathaway Project was all about maximizing that natural vibe to create a space that feels serene. https://lnkd.in/eMhS_nWS

The first impression of a home is the Entry Hall. In a recent project, we designed a the Front Hall with restraint and a limited color palette as it leads into the home office, kitchen and other spaces. A weighty cast bronze demilune table with glass top — a piece that feels sculptural with a hand-finished patina — was the starting point as it is not only eye catching yet was the perfect size for the only wall in the space. Floating above is an organic white round mirror reflecting light, adding a bit of whimsy, and softening the table’s industrial edge.

created a beautiful bedroom oasis in non-traditional hues! We love it! And that she incorporated the Palm Beach Demilune into the room.

Do I still whoop out loud when I see one of our projects in print? Yes, I do. I've been doing this work for quite a long time but it is always such a treat to see one of our designs published. It was fun to open up the Boston Globe Magazine today and see the beautiful kitchen we designed as part of a whole house project in Lexington, Massachusetts. Not only was it a pleasure to work with the clients who had great taste and are exceedingly lovely people, but it was a second project with a builder I adore. Anyone in the construction business understands many things need to align -- vision, budget, ex*****on, and trust -- for a truly exceptional end result and this was one of those unicorn projects. Many thanks to writer Marni Katz who sees thousands of worthy projects a year and picked ours; to Joe Keller, our great photographer, and to our clients. Lastly, I fully understand nowadays to get published in PRINT is a big deal as everything is on line. Not only is this in glossy color, but I love the lead! In journalistic hierarchy Marni Elyse Katz actually led with my name! Talk about great press!

Designing a windowless, lower-level bathroom can be a challenge, but for this family home, it was a chance to get creative! Located right next to the home gym, our goal was to create a space that felt easy, breezy, and fun for the tween and teen kids.Our clients embraced a clean Scandinavian style for the home; here we focused on textures and a bright, fresh palette. The vibe is also spa-like, especially with the smooth pebble floor in the shower.This room proves that even without natural light, a well-designed space can be a cheerful and functional haven for the whole family.

NEW WORK: Being organized for Summer guests and family visits starts here. In this Mudroom for clients whose design brief included a light, bright space, hardworking floors that look like slate (but a fool-your-eye porcelain tile) and lots of storage as it has both closed and open areas housing three closets. The Scandi theme and light wood motif that’s used throughout this house finds a place in the handsome cabinet hardware: light oak and matte black drawer pulls and cabinet door handles. Photo:
