Behind every memorable room is a color—or collection of colors—that defines its ambiance…

Before even setting foot in a space, this design choice can single-handedly dictate the feelings that visitors will experience within. From deep browns to melted yellows, these moody interiors leave lasting impressions as rich and formative as their respective hues.

Patrick Ahearn’s Driven: The Road to Iconic Design🛞

For architect Patrick Ahearn, the worlds of architecture and automobiles have always been inextricably intertwined. They share a common language of proportion, craftsmanship, materiality, and beautiful design. In his new book, DRIVEN: The Road to Iconic Design, Ahearn brings these two lifelong passions together, exploring how iconic cars and timeless architecture can inform and complement one another. At the heart of the book is the carriage house, a distinctly New England architectural form that Ahearn reimagines for contemporary life as guest retreats, entertaining spaces, collector’s galleries, anglers’ lounges, poolside pavilions, and sophisticated homes for extraordinary automobiles.

Inside the Restoration of an 1854 Cambridge Italianate Mansion…🌿

Renovating a historic home is rarely a matter of simply restoring what came before. In a house built in 1854, the challenge is more nuanced: preserve the craftsmanship and character that give the architecture its identity while making room for the way a family lives today. For Brookes + Hill Custom Builders this balance became the guiding principle behind the transformation of an Italianate mansion in Cambridge.

Designed to Endure 🌳 A high-performance residence embraces the landscape and the future.

Past, present, and future converge in a thoughtfully designed passive home, grounded in performance and built for longevity. Nestled between protected town land and the rolling greens of a nearby golf course, the home is defined as much by sustainability as by a profound sense of place.
