“I pride myself on being able to design interiors for each client’s unique needs and individual style. If the images you see are not your particular style or color palette, rest assured that the space I design for you will reflect your taste, your style and meet your personal needs.” — Denyne
Outdated Kitchen Gets Sleek Open Look
My clients had outgrown their outdated, cluttered kitchen and desired to expand the space to create an open concept kitchen that was fresh, updated and fun. The new space plan and addition I designed opened up the space, brought in more natural light thru the new windows and French doors as well as gave them a functional multi user kitchen where they could work and entertain their friends. Sleek cherry cabinets and stainless steel accents coupled with quartz countertops and glass tile created the fun and fresh look that makes you say WOW when you enter the space.

“We love how the addition/house remodel came out. You had so many great suggestions along the way (remember Chris was ready to demolish the entire staircase to have the kitchen front to back?) I LOVE how we got a great pantry and such a large half bath where we have room to add a shower (when we are old and can't climb the stairs).” — Patty F. Ipswich MA
Kitchen Stuck in Time Warp
My client’s home was beautiful and elegant but their kitchen was stuck in a time warp. They liked the existing layout and cabinetry but desperately wanted to update the look. By changing the color scheme, installing new granite countertops, tile and adding a sleek euro hood the newly updated kitchen reflects the style of the home and taste of its owners.

70's Kitchen Gets a Modern Face Lift
These Before & After photos say it all. An outdated 70’s kitchen became a beautifully updated kitchen for this active family that now loves the “heart of their home”. The space was transformed into an inviting kitchen where everyone can get involved in preparing a meal or can just hang out with the cook. The sleek cherry cabinets, granite countertops, and state of the art stainless steel appliances are just some of the elements that make this new kitchen come to life.

Living Room, a Place to Linger
Cold, stark and uninviting were some of the words my client used to describe her living room. She wanted a space that was warm and inviting. My design achieved creating that kind of space where you’d want to linger. The changes created a stunning place with a new fireplace façade and architectural details that are now the highlight of the room. The new color scheme and furniture are just some of the elements that make this a space that my client loves.

“Denyne you are organized, efficient, and extremely competent in your field. You have an excellent rapport with homeowners, contractors, and vendors. Your communication skills, both written and verbal, are excellent. I’d highly recommend you for any interior design endeavor. You will be a valuable asset for any project that is being considered.” — Lyn G. Groton MA
A Dining Room with Character
No character was the only word I could use to describe my client’s dining room. They were determined to make a big impact on the space despite a tight budget. So I suggested new paint color for the walls, an inexpensive architectural detail around the bay window and some beautiful custom valances. Viola! A space that was once cold and sterile is now warm, inviting and bursting with character.

“ I would have never chosen the colors you suggested for the interior of our home but they work so well together and look beautiful. Denyne you are very good at what you do.” — Jan F. Boxford MA
* Note: Not only did I help my client select a new paint color for their dining room I also chose new colors for the entire first color of their home *
Small Details Make a Big Impact
A focused design transformed a small half bath into an updated Victorian beauty. Small details like crown molding, bead board paneling, a chair rail and intricate tile pattern on the floor are the key elements that make this small bath unique and fresh.

More Beautiful Interior Spaces
Kitchen Features Multiple Work Zones
My clients lived in a beautiful Arts & Crafts style home, but their kitchen did not reflect the true style of their home. The old kitchen was contemporary in style with white laminate cabinets & countertops which were totally out of character for their home. I created a welcoming open concept family kitchen with multiple work zones, interesting details and a banquet area that has truly become the heart of their home and a gathering place for all.
“It is difficult to find the words to tell you how much we enjoyed working with you and how happy we are with our new kitchen. It is everything we thought and hoped it would be. Your design is wonderfully efficient, elegant and all the elements come together in what is truly a dream come true.” — Diana T. Groton MA
A Beautiful Tribute to an Era
Their early 1900’s farm house was a beautiful tribute to the era, but this family’s kitchen was small and cramped. The new addition adjacent to the kitchen created an integrated family room where the family could live and entertain. Their new open kitchen reflects the style and period of the home, and it gives my clients a space that is a gathering place for their family. The entire space is a tribute to the home that they love so much.
“Your expertise helped me create a kitchen that is extremely efficient as well as beautiful. You always went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied. We sincerely appreciate your professionalism, accessibility and hard work.” — Nicole P. Groton MA
Small Home Office Turns into a Showplace
My client’s business had outgrown their small home office. They wanted an addition designed that would be a showplace where they could entertain friends and prospective clients. The resulting design is a real showstopper where color, texture, proper space planning and use of architectural details created a space that fulfilled their dreams and desires.
“We love how the addition came out. Love the idea of the dropped ceiling in the library, all the moldings in the office. The idea of a black rug! That was great and we NEVER would have thought of it. The lovely detail around the fireplace in the library - Mostly you were so great to work with - You got Chris to add color to our home. Like a good marriage counselor - you gave credibility to issues/concerns that both of us had. Even the things you wouldn't have picked (like the piano rug) you supported because we loved them. I don't think Chris has stopped asking what would Denyne think of this?" — Patty F. Ipswich MA
