Design Highlights
Lounging in Nature
Robin loves the outdoors, so we created a cozy, coastal-inspired deck for her to enjoy the beautiful New England nature.
Bringing Peace
Inside, Glenn wanted to design a space that could function as both a solitary retreat and a gathering spot. The warm natural lighting gives the living room a peaceful atmosphere, but the comfortable furniture makes it easy for Robin to host Bring Change to Mind meetings, too.
Crafting Memories
Why choose between a bedroom and a craft room when you can have both? From the closet to the ample windows, it can function as a guest room when Robin has company. But for the rest of the year, it can be her private crafting hub.
