One step inside reveals an infusion of rich, warm tones with contemporary amenities that hold deep respect for the home’s mid century roots. A perfect space for a young modern family to grow and experience unforgettable moments together.”

“This project celebrated a new chapter for the client as they entered the “empty nest” stage of life. The client wanted a place that was more serene and private, but would still accommodate and encourage frequent visits from their growing family. The home’s stunning views and landscape against the hills of Bommer Canyon, the Spanish architectural elements, timeless interior details and natural surroundings created a cohesive space that celebrates the very best of indoor-outdoor living.”

No.8 is a carefully restored townhouse, the result of a meticulous three-year renovation. From the outside, its heritage features like the new roof, sash windows, and lime-rendered facade honour the conservation area’s history. Inside, a bold transformation unfolds, showcasing thoughtful craftsmanship with custom timber doors, double-height spaces, and an indoor-outdoor flow. HUTCH‘s vision turned this once-dark home into a vibrant sanctuary, blending modern and natural elements. Iconic collectibles, warm textures, and playful, curated spaces create a uniquely inviting interior, bridging classic elegance and contemporary design in an inspiring urban revival.

Warm, earthy, neutral, comfortable and a wee bit monastic. This sort of vibe is one of the rare times I appreciate a white backdrop. A really pretty Spanish home in San Jose designed by Evgenia Merson. Photos: Jessica Burke.









Welcome to this serene country club retreat designed by Moore House Design for busy Boston professionals who have cherished summers at the Aquidneck Club in Rhode Island for over 20 years. They jumped when a rare condo in the historic clubhouse came up for sale. While the exteriors reflected New England shingle-style architecture, the interiors required transformation from outdated 90s finishes. The redesign balances their minimalist aesthetic with vintage lighting, clean lines and unique art for a modern, comfortable space.
