Style Scene Notebook

Welcome spring!

One of Southport’s most beloved design destinations made a move, but don’t worry, it didn’t go far. Lattice House has relocated to 330 Pequot Avenue, just a stone’s throw from its original location. The store has also joined forces with Parker & Company Designs, offering a range of interior design services.

In other grand-opening news, Interstate + Lakeland Lumber unveiled a new Westport design center at 800 Post Road East at the end of 2022. The center lets you see millwork, windows, and doors in person so you can compare options and visualize everything in your own home.

2022 wrapped up with the Connecticut Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects’ annual Professional Awards. The awards recognize excellence in landscape architectural design, planning and analysis, communication, and research. This year’s winners in the residential landscape architectural design category included James Doyle Design Associates, Renée Byers Landscape Architect, and Haver & Skolnick Architects. Congrats to all!

Hats off to Cornerstone
