Guys.  SPRING. IS. HERE.  Can we all just take a moment to welcome warm weather (hopefully sooner rather than later!), longer days, and the resurgence of life into this world?  I don’t know about you, but after this long winter, I’m really looking forward to all three.  And speaking of looking forward to things, I’m […]

I’ll be the first to admit that I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be swooning over wood kitchen cabinets.  They can come off as a bit traditional, and sometimes heavy, and truthfully, sometimes remind me of the 90’s (DON’T GET ME WRONG — I love the 90’s, juuuuust not its cabinets). But […]

A bookshelf needs a little more than just books in order to be camera ready. Step up your shelfie game with a carefully curated layer of accessories. You might already have a stash of objects collected over time but if not, don’t worry! Check out these decorative accents that can be worked into any display. […]

Hey guys, it’s been a minute since we’ve blogged! We’ve been busy designing up interiors all over the place (Manhattan, Boston, Florida, to name a few). Yet we still somehow manage to keep up with the latest trends. And today, we are sharing some stylish recommendations: 10 hot new must haves from CB2 that we […]
