Brookline Traditional Tudor

The Challenge

The homeowners fell in love with this Brookline Tudor—the craftsmanship, the woodwork, the architectural details. They love traditional style and old homes but had never worked with a designer and weren't sure how to make it work without feeling like "grandma's house."

The Solution

We found a palette of blues, greens, and neutrals to balance the rich wood tones. Reflective materials bounce light around the space. Thoughtfully curated rugs add movement and energy.

High-end French and Italian reproductions, custom furniture, and timeless lighting complete the look—pieces that feel as though they've always belonged.

Traditional, yes. But fresh, livable, and sophisticated.

The clients say their home envelops them in beauty and makes them happy every day.

“Abbey helped us decorate our new home after we moved about five years ago. I still regularly turn to my husband and tell him how much I love the way our home looks. Abbey is extremely professional, organized, and very sensitive to her client’s wishes. She was a pleasure to work with, and I would happily work with her again for any future decorating needs.”
