    Discover DXV’s Bathroom Jewelry

    Architecture & Details / Bathroom Design / Built In Cabinetry / Cabinetry & Millwork / Thoughts on Design
      I had never thought to associate the word jewelry with the word bathroom, but there I was, with two projects in mind, thinking that very thing as I walked through the DXV display of one of my#BlogTour2017 sponsors at #KBIS2017. I realized what I was seeing and thinking was completely consistent with today’s  trend towards...

    How to Use Metrie’s Architectural Mouldings in Your Home

    Architecture & Details / Cabinetry & Millwork / Thoughts on Design
    I doubt #BlogTourKBIS sponsor, Metrie,  was planning it, but as I approached their booth at #KBIS2017, I began to feel a sense of home. Their “vestibule”, with its wide horizontal siding, island blue door, individual coat hooks and country-style bar cart could have been lifted from a beach cottage on the Cape or Islands. (Can spring come any sooner, please???)...

    Wilsonart and A New Kitchen For A Cottage By The Sea

    Cabinetry & Millwork / Kitchen Design
    Who else is excited that the sun is starting to shine a little brighter in Boston these days? Sally and I certainly are…and that means sunny days spent by the ocean are ahead! It also means we’re starting to hear from our past clients and new clients with ocean homes that need renovating or updating,...

    We’ve been included in Ocean Home magazine’s 2017 Top 50 Coastal Interior Designers list!

    Luxury Hardware: P.E. Guerin – Part 1

    Cabinetry & Millwork / Thoughts on Design
    A  few weeks ago I fulfilled a long held ambition – I went to New York and made an appointment to see the gorgeous showroom of the luxury hardware giant, P.E. Guerin. I’ve wanted to do this for years! Finally, I made it to the luxury hardware mecca. I wasn’t disappointed. You may know, from...

    Before/After Foyer and Powder Room Renovation

    Architecture & Details / Cabinetry & Millwork / Interiors & Antiques
    Sally and I frequently receive calls from home owners who tell us they have purchased a newer home based on location, school system and or look of the home’s exterior, etc., but they don’t like the interior architectural detailing and decor. As one client related, “The interior has no gravitas.” And they ask us, “Can you help us...

    Before/After Pictures of our Traditional Home Magazine New Talent Search Submittal

    Inspired by Ocean Home magazine’s recent inclusion of Wilson Kelsey Design in their 2016 Top 50 Interior Designers list, we decided to enter Traditional Home magazine’s New Talent Search. Preparing the entry was much harder than I expected, particularly selecting 10 images that visually tell the story of our firm. It was much like answering the question we ask of ourselves when designing a project...

    Elements of French Style – Part 1 of 4.

    Architecture & Details / Cabinetry & Millwork / Historic Preservation / Interiors & Antiques / Thoughts on Design
    Last spring, Sally and I prepared and video taped a 90 minute presentation about French Style based on our trips to Paris that we presented as part of Boston Design Week. The premise was to share our knowledge and what we have learned about how to create French Style in Your Home. The presentation was broken down...

    Book Review; A Sense of Place – Houses on Martha’s Vineyard and Cape Cod, by Mark A. Hutker

    Architecture & Details / Cabinetry & Millwork / Historic Preservation
    Header photo by Eric Roth I’ve found another favorite – A Sense of Place Houses of Martha’s Vineyard and Cape Cod. In the WKD library, it’s tucked right next to Axel Vervoordt’s Timeless Interiors. Both books speak the same language. Mark Hutker, founder of Hutker Architects, has been practicing architecture on the Cape, Martha’s Vineyard...
