Creating restful retreats that nurture your soul
Our design philosophy blends timeless elegance with wellness-driven principles—creating interiors that are as restorative as they are beautiful.
Every space we design is layered with rich textures, calming color palettes, and meaningful details to evoke a sense of comfort and belonging. We prioritize natural materials and sustainable choices, ensuring your home feels luxurious yet grounded, personal, and deeply nurturing.
More than just beautiful rooms, our work creates true sanctuaries—spaces that help you heal, reconnect, and thrive in your next chapter.
Luxury Wellness Design in Connecticut & Beyond
With a unique focus on wellness-inspired design, Rachel Schemmerling helps women navigating life transitions—whether loss, change, or reinvention—transform their homes into sanctuaries that nurture both physical and emotional well-being. Growing up in a 275‑year‑old Colonial home in Madison, Connecticut, and later working at the historic Mount Washington Hotel, Rachel was deeply inspired by the timeless connection between people and the places they call home. But her work took on a deeper dimension when a chronic autoimmune diagnosis—and her own seasons of personal loss—revealed that great design is about more than beauty. A home can do more than look good. It can heal, support, and help you step into your next chapter.

Our design philosophy goes beyond traditional interior design by seamlessly integrating natural elements like light, greenery, and organic textures to create spaces that foster well-being and a deeper connection to nature. Unlike traditional interior design, which often prioritizes aesthetics and functionality alone, our design style focuses on enhancing both the physical and emotional health of those who inhabit the space.
This approach blends sustainability with beauty, using materials and layouts that are not only elegant but also promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve indoor air quality. By bringing the outdoors inside, our designs transform interiors into restorative environments that nurture the mind, body, and soul.
