PRESERVED CHARM…

Located in the heart of historic Harvard Square, a family sought a refined yet welcoming update to their home’s interiors and outdoor seating area. The goal was to preserve the property's charm while infusing a fresh, contemporary sensibility that better reflected their lifestyle. The renovations introduced custom millwork, updated lighting, and modern furnishings that honored the architectural integrity of the home while elevating its aesthetic. The living room and bedrooms were reimagined with a mix of tailored upholstery, statement lighting, and built-in shelving that added both function and visual interest. In the dining area, sculptural light fixtures and a mix of art and contemporary furnishings created a sophisticated and approachable atmosphere. Outdoors, the patio was transformed into an urban oasis with weather-resistant furnishings and lush container plantings. The strategic selection of textiles made the space feel like a natural extension of the interior. The project successfully balanced modern updates with the character of the historic neighborhood, creating a home that feels rooted in place yet ready for the future.
