Uptown Funk

Whether you live uptown, downtown, in the city, or in the suburbs, your home must possess that certain style (or shall we say “funk”) that is unique to you. These days, the possibilities are limitless, with the options to customize every little detail of your dream home.

Custom Molding

Ever walk into a room, and notice that something is really special, but you can’t put your finger on it? Look up at the molding, and chances are, it’s perfection! There are many options when it comes to molding selections, but one that is seldom explored is to create your own custom molding profile. Our partnerships with vendors such as Anderson & McQuaid, located out of Cambridge, will help to select or design the molding to perfectly complement your esthetic.

Lighting

With a nod to our past fashions and trends, more and more design and furniture companies are putting a focus on unique and custom lighting options. Check out some of our favorite sites online for special and unique lighting fixtures, pendants, chandeliers, and sconces: Newburyport Lighting, Shades of light.

Hardware

Gold hardware was chosen to accent the navy blue mudroom built-ins at the Victorian Remodel project. Photographed by Freebird Photography.

A relatively small investment, for high style! Transform a kitchen instantly with a unique hardware selection on your cabinets. From vintage finds at the flea market, to modern stainless steel options at luxury hardware retailers, the possibilities are endless. For funky finds, without the wear and tear of time, check out the selections from Anthropologie.
