About color theory Boston
Interior Design Led by Color, Clarity, and Intent
color thoery Boston is a residential interior design studio based in Boston, specializing in thoughtfully planned interiors that balance bold color with timeless design.
We believe exceptional spaces begin with clarity - a clear vision, a disciplined process, and an understanding of how color, proportion, and material work together to shape how a home feels and functions. Our work is groundedon the belief that design should elevate everyday living while standing the test of time.
A Strategic Approach to Design
Our process is deliberately structured and collaborative. We guide clients through each phase of design with confidence and transparency, beginning well before construction or renovation begins.
By establishing a cohesive design plan early, we help clients avoid costly missteps, streamline decision-making, and ensure that every detail - from architectural finishes to furnishings - works in harmony.
Color is not an afterthought in our work. It is a strategic tool used to enhance light, define spaces and bring depth and character to a home.
Experience That Matters
With deep experience working in Boston’s historic and contemporary homes, we understand the nuamces of New England architecture - from townhouses and brownstones to modern residences and custom builds.
Our studio collaborates closely with homeowners, architects, and contractors to ensure that design intent is respected and executed with precision.
Clients come to us seeking:
-Confident design leadership
-Thoughtful use of color
-A refined yet livable aesthetic
-A clear, organized process
They stay because the experience feels calm, considered, and personal.
Design That Feels Collected, Not Decorated
Our interiors are layered, intentional, and tailored to the people who live in them. We value spaces that feel complete but never rigid - homes that reflect individuality without chasing trends.
Every project is appraoched with the same goal: to create interiors that feel enduring, expressive and quietly elevated.
