Meet the Designer: A Q&A with Beth

In 2025, we have the pleasure of working on a series of exceptional homes in collaboration with renowned architects, including NC Architecture, Anderson Orr, form:form Architects, and Ascot Design.

A Unified Vision

Great architecture provides a strong foundation and thoughtful interior design brings warmth, personality, and a sense of home. A collaborative approach ensures the final result is not just structurally impressive but also inviting and tailored to the homeowner’s lifestyle.

When architects and interior designers work together from the start of a project, they ensure that the structure and interior flow complement each other. This avoids disjointed spaces and creates a home that feels cohesive, both aesthetically and functionally. Potential design conflicts are also identified and resolved before construction begins. This prevents costly changes later in the process and ensures a smoother build. The ultimate result is a seamless, well-balanced home that functions beautifully both inside and out.

Nursery Farm

Planning has been approved for this exceptional 9,500 sqft family home, designed by NC Architecture to seamlessly blend traditional rural charm with modern sophistication. In close collaboration with their team, we are crafting a cohesive interior design that enhances the architectural vision, ensuring every space feels both refined and functional.

By embracing natural materials, warm tones, and thoughtfully curated textures, we are creating interiors that complement the home’s structure while supporting a modern family lifestyle. This partnership allows us to refine every detail, from spatial flow to material selection, resulting in a home that is not only architecturally striking but also enhances everyday living.

Edge Hill

Situated on one of Shrewsbury’s most prestigious streets, this exceptional 14,000 sqft luxury home is the result of a close collaboration between renowned architects Anderson Orr and our interior design team at Lewis Knox. Their expertly crafted architectural vision, blending classical proportions with modern elegance, sets the foundation for a home that is both timeless and contemporary.

Our role is to enhance this vision by creating interiors that seamlessly flow with the architecture, ensuring a refined and inviting atmosphere. With expansive windows and open-plan spaces maximizing natural light, our design embraces muted tones and natural textures to complement the home’s tranquil setting. This partnership exemplifies the power of cohesive design, setting a new benchmark for luxury living in Shrewsbury.
