interior design with the mother in mind.
you spend 90% of your life indoors. what we at smörgåsbord can do for your closet, we can do for your home as well. what we call “interior styling” is basically a lipstick renovation. nothing structural, just surfaces. a redesign but not a renovation. (although we know people for that…) once we understand how you currently exist in your space vs. how you WANT to be living, the fun begins. together we might explore new layouts, better organization and storage, furniture and lighting changes, and last but not least; COLOR.
“we shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us.“ -churchill
material selection
the nice thing about interior styling is that it doesn’t have to be a big commitment. we can work with what you already have or we can start from scratch. our job is to make sure you’re living in a healthy way. choosing natural finishes and furnishings for your home can change the way you live. new research shows that Acrylic (Plastic) Paint appears the largest source of microplastics in oceans and waterways. and, acrylic paint is now found in human blood.* trust us, materials matter.

consultations
you have to be more careful with an island…. our motto and guide as we design your space. anything we bring into your home needs to meet these qualifications: breathable, beautiful, and natural. But also: plastic free, timeless, safe (non-toxic), and legal! natural bio-based 1:1 replacements are becoming more accessible to contractors and homeowners as American-made products continue to hit the market. don’t believe us? we meet with contractors, homeowners, architects, and builders. in person and online consultations available.
