New England Design Works:
An interiors firm specializing in kitchen + bath design. Featured in House Beautiful and numerous other publications. National award winning designer. Recipient of Best of Boston “Best Kitchen Designer” Boston Magazine.
As a kitchen and bath designer, my principal goal is to act as a dedicated and experienced guide at every step of the renovation, from the first meeting until after the dust settles.
I work with architects, builders and directly with homeowners on projects in the greater Boston area and beyond. My approach identifies what will ultimately make life in the kitchen more visually pleasing, functional and harmonious.
I work from a “macro to micro” process, starting with the development of conceptual floor plan options and hearing often “I never would have thought of that”. As the project progresses, we delve into a finer level of detail and along the way, I educate my clients about appliance selection; the various pros and cons of countertop material; how and why the perfect light fixtures can take their kitchen to the next level. Each element from tile, to hardware, surfaces, and colors are chosen with the ultimate goal being a kitchen that feels warm and comfortable, amazingly functional and uniquely theirs.
My work has been featured in various publications including the cover of Boston Home Magazine as well as the pages of House Beautiful magazine. Additionally, I have been locally and nationally recognized as an award winning designer including first place in the NKBA's kitchen design contest for medium kitchen as well as one of 53 regional winners amongst more than 1600 entrants for the Subzero Wolf Kitchen Design Contest.
I look forward to hearing from you and learning more about your project.
