In our last email, you got a peek
at our Boston Harbor condo project
in its "Before" stage.
Let's look at what happens next
on a project like this.
So after seeing the property ourselves,
we began the process of creating a scope of work
while reviewing, discussing, and developing
a foundation for the entire project
alongside the client and the contractors.
From the initial client visit, seeing the property,
and then listening to everyone's ideas
about what the place could become,
in the end the consensus was to work with the idea of
the juxtaposition of an old building with rustic beams
in the middle of a bustling large city.
We began to plan bringing out more of the rustic vibes
that the original architecture already has,
adding some traditional New England layers,
and mixing it all with urban touches...
Maine roots with a Boston flavor,
an "Urban Lodge".
We got right to the job of working out more of the details
while curating fixtures, finishes, and furnishings
to create a cohesive and comprehensive
Design Plan for the project.
We worked with several sources here in Maine
and while in Boston for site visits we had
more sources available to explore there too.
This part can be a lot of fun!
It's a bit like trying various pieces of a puzzle together
while knowing the end picture you have in mind
and narrowing it all down along the way
to what works best as a whole.
Next time, we'll be looking at
how it all began to take shape in our renderings
and maybe a peek at what was happening
on site up to this point.
You won't want to miss that!
More to come!
