What inspires your work?

My creative inspiration comes from my setting and the moods created by the environment. When I am in the city, I try to achieve comfort in textures and quiet in colors as a respite from the loud hustle of a typical city day. Conversely, when I am by the sea or in a pastoral setting, I like to try to bring the outside in.

My daily inspiration comes from my team and their creative tenacity. The hardworking crew at CTI is not only motivated and full of originality, they also bring their best game with style.

What is your design philosophy?

When it comes to creating spaces, I have three key components:

1.) Quality has to show from beginning to end. With good-quality furnishings, everything in the space is elevated.

Carolyn Thayer Interiors is an interior design firm with offices in Boston and on Nantucket that combines practical classics with modern function while striving to create a style of endurance and beauty.

Our firm works with clients to transform a house or set of plans into a magnificent home while striving to maintain individuality and elegance. The depth of our team at Carolyn Thayer Interiors will ensure a seamless approach to reach design goals determined to execute a prompt and professional home delivery.

Carolyn is a member of the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art (ICAA). Carolyn, with more than twenty years of hard work and professionalism, proves home after home that exquisite everyday elegance and stunning decor is still delivered with complete satisfaction.

2.) Every project is its own entity and needs to be treated as such. We have projects where clients are heavily involved and some where clients want little to do with the process and everything in between. Each one is as important as the next and needs the proper nurtering to see it through to the same goal of an exemplary completion.

3.) Spaces should be able to stand the test of time. Nobody wants their space to look dated, and if we work with the right materials, they can last through trends and phases to stay fresh. Mixing a little classic and transitional with contemporary style can capture a timeless look.
