American Cottage Design
Hello Cottage Lovers. So happy you stopped by! Here at American Cottage Design, we create cozy, welcoming interiors for anyone who struggles with creating and implementing a cottage design project on their own.
If you’re thinking about redesigning your space, we can help you sort it all out by guiding you along the decision making path to:
Understand the range of design options to choose from so you can avoid decision paralysis.
Understand what decisions need to be made so that you will be fully prepared to make them in a timely manor.
Why those decisions are good or necessary so that you can remain confident in your choices.
When decisions must be made so that your project timeline progresses smoothly.
We’ll also help keep the finances in line and the ball rolling efficiently so that your renovation project is less frustrating, less expensive, less time consuming and more fun.
We love helping cottage lovers create beautiful interiors that help them live simpler, less stressful lives so they can relax and devote more time to family, friends and favorite pastimes.
Perhaps you’d like help designing something smaller (or maybe not) and easier to maintain with well-designed storage, a more functional floor plan and high performance fabrics and finishes that clean up easily.
Maybe you want to include a few contemporary elements without compromising the nostalgic cottage ambiance, but mixing the old and new into a cohesive plan has you befuddled.
Perhaps you’re looking to buy or renovate a getaway cottage but you want it designed with comfortable guest rooms for family and friends, plenty of accommodation for luggage, outdoor gear and large, open gathering areas for evening meals, games and great conversations.
Or maybe you just want to live in the warmth and comfort of a welcoming home that is beautifully simple, designed with natural materials, and has earth-tone color palettes and soft textures… something that’s designed to reduce stress with comfy seating areas, reading nooks and spaces for relaxation and reflection. In short, maybe you just want a cottage that can support the things you find really important in life.

My husband, Scott, and I are partners in life and partners in work. As former advertising creatives, we have been happily working shoulder to shoulder as a creative team for more than 25 years. As principals at American Cottage Design, I design the spaces and manage the projects, while Scott oversees construction and applies his eye for meticulous detail and quality work to every project we take on.
