Let's turn your house into a home
Weston has long been one of Greater Boston's most desirable communities for homeowners seeking exceptional architecture, expansive properties, and a quieter pace of life without sacrificing access to the city. From historic Colonials near Boston Post Road to architect-designed residences tucked into wooded landscapes around South Side Weston and Kendal Green, many homes here already possess remarkable character. The opportunity lies in transforming them into spaces that feel equally beautiful, functional, and deeply personal.
Herringbone & Brass helps homeowners achieve exactly that through comprehensive interior design, luxury renovation planning, and complete home furnishing. Based in Brookline, our studio partners with clients throughout Weston who want more than beautiful interiors. They want a trusted team capable of managing every detail, collaborating with architects and contractors, and delivering a home that reflects both their lifestyle and the lasting quality of their investment.
Whether you are restoring a historic estate near the Town Green Historic District, renovating a family home overlooking mature woodlands, or furnishing a newly completed custom residence, our goal is the same. We create timeless interiors designed specifically for the way you live today while respecting the architectural story your home already tells.
Many homeowners come to us with homes that have excellent architectural bones but no longer support modern living. Kitchens may feel disconnected from gathering spaces. Primary suites may lack the comfort expected in a luxury home. Formal layouts often need to accommodate entertaining, remote work, growing families, or multigenerational living without losing the home's original character.
We regularly help homeowners navigate challenges such as:
Modernizing historic Colonials, Georgian estates, Tudor homes, and Shingle Style residences while preserving their architectural integrity.
Reimagining layouts built decades ago to better support today's family life and entertaining.
Creating interiors that connect naturally to gardens, terraces, pools, and Weston’s wooded surroundings.
Coordinating architects, builders, landscape architects, lighting consultants, and specialty trades throughout complex renovations.
Furnishing expansive homes so they feel warm, welcoming, and cohesive rather than oversized.
Selecting finishes, materials, and custom details that will remain beautiful for years instead of following short-lived trends.
Every project begins by understanding how you want your home to function, not by imposing a predetermined aesthetic. That philosophy allows us to create homes that feel completely individual while respecting the qualities that make Weston such a remarkable place to live.
Interior Design For Weston Homes That Deserve Thoughtful Transformation
Why Weston Homeowners should Choose Herringbone & Brass
DESIGN THAT RESPECTS YOUR HOME'S ARCHITECTURE
Weston offers one of the most diverse collections of luxury residential architecture in Massachusetts. Historic homes near Case Estates and Boston Post Road sit alongside thoughtfully designed contemporary residences, each deserving a different design response.
Rather than forcing every project into a recognizable style, we begin by studying the home's architecture, surroundings, and the people who live there.
Our approach blends timeless New England character with carefully selected modern elements to create interiors that feel current without appearing temporary. Natural materials, custom millwork, thoughtful proportions, layered textures, and carefully considered lighting allow each home to evolve gracefully over time.
We often describe ourselves as design chameleons because we believe every home should reflect its owners rather than its designer. Our role is to help uncover your style, refine it, and bring it to life through a cohesive design that feels authentic from room to room.
RENOVATIONS DESIGNED WITH LONG-TERM VALUE IN MIND
Luxury homes represent both deeply personal spaces and significant investments. Every renovation decision should improve daily living while supporting the long-term value of the property.
One of the qualities that distinguishes Herringbone & Brass is the unique perspective brought by founder Sylvia Pagán Westphal, who is also a licensed luxury real estate professional.
That experience allows our team to evaluate renovation decisions through two equally important lenses:
How will this improve the way you live?
How will these choices contribute to the home's long-term desirability and value?
Rather than chasing trends that quickly become dated, we prioritize enduring design decisions, high-quality craftsmanship, and thoughtful planning that continue to serve homeowners well for decades.
For Weston homeowners investing substantially in their homes, this balanced perspective provides confidence that every design decision is working toward both immediate enjoyment and lasting value.
CONCIERGE LEVEL PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Luxury renovations involve far more than selecting beautiful finishes.
The most successful projects depend on careful coordination between designers, architects, contractors, cabinetmakers, fabricators, lighting specialists, and countless other professionals. Managing those relationships while balancing work, family, and everyday life can quickly become overwhelming.
Our turnkey process removes that burden.
Throughout your project, we oversee the countless moving parts that keep complex renovations progressing smoothly, including:
Collaboration with architects and builders.
Coordination with trusted trades and specialty craftsmen.
Procurement and order management.
Delivery scheduling and installation logistics.
Quality control throughout implementation.
Final styling that completes every room.
Our clients remain informed and involved in important design decisions without needing to manage the day-to-day details themselves.
For busy professionals, entrepreneurs, physicians, executives, and families throughout Weston, this concierge-level service provides the confidence that every aspect of the project is being carefully managed from concept through completion.
A HOME DESIGNED AROUND YOUR LIFESTYLE
No two families live the same way, and no two luxury homes should feel the same.
Some Weston homeowners envision elegant spaces for entertaining throughout the year. Others prioritize relaxed family living, quiet reading rooms, dedicated home offices, or comfortable guest accommodations for extended family. Many are looking for interiors that seamlessly connect to expansive outdoor spaces, making the most of patios, gardens, and wooded views.
Understanding these priorities shapes every recommendation we make.
Before discussing finishes, furnishings, or layouts, we spend time learning how you move through your home, what inspires you, and how your spaces can better support your routines today while adapting to future needs.
The result is an interior that feels highly personal rather than simply luxurious. Every room has a purpose. Every material feels intentional. Every decision contributes to a home that is both beautiful and genuinely enjoyable to live in.
That is the difference between decorating a house and designing a home.

Interior Decoration And Styling
Whether your project involves a complete renovation, a newly constructed residence, or furnishing an entire estate, our full-service approach allows every decision to be made with a clear vision from the very beginning.
The homes themselves often reflect that lifestyle.
Families living near South Side Weston, Silver Hill, or the Merriam Street corridor frequently need interiors that accommodate everything from everyday family routines to large holiday gatherings. Homes surrounding the Case Estates area or Boston Post Road may require careful updates that preserve historic architectural character while introducing modern comfort and functionality. Contemporary residences around Kendal Green often seek interiors that soften clean architectural lines with warmth, texture, and custom furnishings.
Every project is different, but many share similar priorities:
Comfortable spaces for everyday family living.
Flexible layouts that support entertaining throughout the year.
Home offices designed for focused work without sacrificing style.
Guest accommodations for visiting family and friends.
Interiors that embrace natural light and wooded views.
Thoughtful transitions between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Durable, timeless materials suited to active households.
Rather than designing around current trends, we create homes that continue to feel relevant as families grow and lifestyles evolve.
Designed For The Way Weston Families Live
A home overlooking Cat Rock Park may prioritize expansive windows and spaces that frame natural views. Properties near the Weston Forest and Trail Association trail network often seek stronger connections between interior living spaces and surrounding landscapes. Historic homes around the Town Green Historic District require careful attention to proportion, architectural detailing, and preservation. Estate properties near Weston Golf Club frequently balance elegant entertaining with relaxed family living.
These local characteristics naturally influence design decisions.
Our experience throughout Greater Boston also provides access to a trusted network of architects, contractors, cabinetmakers, artisans, and specialty craftsmen capable of delivering the level of quality these homes deserve. For projects involving historic properties, we understand the importance of preserving architectural integrity while integrating the comforts and conveniences expected in a contemporary luxury home.
That combination of local knowledge, thoughtful collaboration, and meticulous execution allows homeowners to move confidently through even the most complex projects.
Local Knowledge That Makes A Difference
On installation day, our team delivers, places, and styles every piece, from all the furniture down to the final pillow, so your home feels finished from the moment you walk in.
Finishing touches
Once plans are approved, we manage everything behind the scenes: sourcing, procurement, order tracking, and coordination with your contractor through construction.
sourcing and coordination
We develop the full design package (floor plans, elevations, millwork drawings, finish schedules, and curated furnishings) and present it to you with samples in hand.
Design plans
Our designers translate your goals into moodboards, material palettes, and initial space planning, so you can see and feel the direction before we go deeper.
Moodboards
& first concepts
We follow up with a proposal outlining scope, team, timeline, and a good-faith budget estimate, so you know exactly what's included before we begin.
custom proposal
We start with an in-depth conversation, ideally at your home, to learn how you live, what you love, and what isn't working. This is where we establish scope, timeline, and direction.
