Located in Weston, Massachusetts, the house is the full-time residence of a young couple, and that reality guided every design decision. While the architecture offers scale and openness, the interiors were conceived to support everyday living rather than visual complexity. Comfort, flow, and ease were treated as essential—not secondary—to the project’s more curated aspects.

Rather than breaking the plan into smaller compartments, the design studio chose to preserve the architectural flow. Walls were left unpainted to maintain continuity from one space to the next, allowing definition to come from elements placed within the rooms rather than from architectural interruptions.

Throughout the home, artworks are positioned with a curatorial sensibility—given space, centered deliberately, and allowed moments of stillness against neutral backdrops. This approach establishes what Sashya describes as a “gallery-like feeling,” one that shapes how each room is perceived.

Yet the atmosphere remains intentionally accessible. “Even though the art is sophisticated and placed as if it were a gallery, the pieces are surrounded by other elements in the room that support an approachable feeling,” she says. Upholstered seating, layered textiles, and warm wood surfaces ensure that the art is encountered as part ofdaily life, not set apart from it. Ultimately, the house reveals itself through movement and repetition. It was designed to inspire without overwhelming, to delight without distancing—a home where art sets the tone, but is always in dialogue with the life unfolding around it.

Material selection reinforces the balance between refinement and comfort. The interiors rely heavily on natural materials—cotton, linen, wool, silk, leather, and wood—used consistently across furniture, rugs, and finishes. For Sashya, this is both an aesthetic and a philosophical choice. “We strongly believe in the power of using natural materials which are sustainable and promote healthy living,” she says.

The sourcing process was deliberate and intuitive. The design studio spent significant time researching pieces that felt specific to the house, allowing the interiors to evolve through selection rather than prescription. The resulting collection spans Brazilian, American, Japanese, Italian, Indian, Scottish, and Scandinavian works. While diverse in origin, the pieces share a modernist sensibility and a respect for craft. Each one carries its own cultural identity while contributing to a cohesive whole, echoing the architecture without competing with it.

As a contemporary new build, the house is defined by spatial continuity. Rooms flow seamlessly into one another, ceilings rise generously, and expansive windows draw the surrounding landscape deep into the interior. The layout spans 5,900 square feet / 548 square meters and includes six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, yet the experience of moving through the home feels measured rather than monumental.
