A note from the studio

We furnish a room the way a gallery hangs a show: a few good things, given room to breathe.

A room should look like the people who live in it, not like a catalogue page. We start with what you already own and love, then look for the few pieces that are missing: a chair with a past, a lamp made by hand, a painting worth standing in front of.

Bring us one room or a whole house in Santa Fe. Photos, a floor plan and a list of what you'd never part with are a good place to begin.

Objects and art sourcing

For some clients this is the whole job: the last pieces that make a room theirs. We look through galleries, makers' studios, dealers and estate sales for things that suit the room and the people in it.

  • Paintings, prints and works on paper
  • Ceramics, glass and sculpture
  • Vintage and antique furniture
  • Rugs, textiles and lighting
  • Framing, hanging and placement

Rooms
Sitting room, alcove and hall

The owners wanted the deep arch to feel like a room of its own. We kept the plaster bare and warm, hung linen curtains that stop the light without hiding the curve, and built the furnishing around one carved settee and a low fluted table. The brass came last: a small chandelier and three candle sconces in the niches, found over a few months rather than ordered at once.

A few lines are enough to start: where the home is, which rooms, when you'd like them done, and any art or piece you want to build around.
