Cozy & Classic
Intended as a pied-à-terre for our coastal-dwelling clients, this townhome had a great location close to Halifax’s vibrant offerings but no personality. Our clients asked us to give their second home a do-over, from a full renovation of the kitchen and primary bath to a light makeover of the rest of the spaces. We refinished the floors, selected new paint and wallpaper and then helped them reimagine some of their existing furniture pieces, while mixing in some new ones, and curate a mature selection of artwork for a cozy winter alternative to life by the sea.

The Client Feedback
“Sappho always made us feel like we were her most important client. She listened to our hopes and ideas, was always prepared, and instilled a sense of calm in us throughout the renovation. Our home wound up looking the way it always should have: Comfortable, interesting, and complete.”
