My Design
Philosophy
A home is more than a place to live. It is an expression of your life. It is an opportunity to reinvent your spaces. Interior design is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity.
Having owned multiple homes, having orchestrated extensive renovations, I understand the balance of beauty, flow, and use. I work one-on-one with each client to tailor recommendations to their style, space, and resources. I highlight your treasured pieces by creating a space to feature them and accessorize around them. I will work with you to design a space that brings you joy.

I have worked with Gregory for over 20 years and he is my “go to” for all things design. I’ve owned three houses and four commercial buildings, and he has added the special touch I needed to every space. Gregory is amazing!
He saved me time and guesswork by assessing my likes and dislikes and then searching for furniture, tile, flooring, paint and accessory options that he believed would work. I chose my favorites and the rest is history. Gregory’s talent, energy and passion for making a house a home saved me time and money - and we had some fun in the process!
My style and taste has certainly been influenced by his creativity. He is a master at staging and has a natural ability to identify the beauty in an uncommon piece of furniture and make it functional as well as a conversation piece.
