New Construction & Development

One clear interior direction, carried from the plans through the final finish schedule.

Make the important decisions before they become expensive ones.

New construction moves quickly once the build begins. We establish the interior direction early, review how the rooms will function, and coordinate the selections that need to work together across the entire property.

For homeowners, that means a home that feels cohesive rather than assembled one deadline at a time. For builders and developers, it means a complete, market-aware finish package the project team can work from.

A strong fit for

  • Ground-up homes and substantial renovations
  • Builders and developers planning spec or multi-unit interiors
  • Projects that need finish decisions coordinated before installation

What the service can include

  • Flooring and tilework
  • Cabinetry and millwork
  • Countertops
  • Plumbing and lighting fixtures
  • Hardware and paint schedules

How the work moves forward

01

Review the plans

We study flow, room proportions, furniture placement, built-ins, and the decisions that affect how the finished home will be used.

02

Establish the finish direction

Flooring, cabinetry, tile, countertops, fixtures, hardware, and paint are developed as one connected material story.

03

Document the selections

The approved choices are organized into clear schedules and specifications for the builder and trades.

04

Coordinate through the build

We stay engaged as questions arise so field decisions continue to support the approved design direction.

When should the designer join the build?

Our new construction guide explains which decisions happen at each phase and why bringing the interior team in early protects the finished result.

Questions, answered

When should an interior designer join a new construction project?

As early as possible—ideally while plans can still be reviewed and before finish, lighting, plumbing, and cabinetry decisions become urgent.

Do you work directly with builders and developers?

Yes. This service is designed for homeowners, builders, and developers who need a coordinated interior direction and an organized finish package.

Which selections are included?

Scope is tailored to the project and can include flooring, tilework, cabinetry, millwork, countertops, plumbing and lighting fixtures, hardware, and paint schedules.

Where do you offer in-person new construction services?

Our in-person work is centered on Greater Boston. Share the property location and construction stage in your inquiry so we can confirm fit.
