Boston Interior Designer

Full-service interiors for South End brownstones, Back Bay residences, Seaport apartments and Boston restaurants.

Interior design across Boston

Ivory & Bone Interiors is a full-service interior design firm working across Boston, from South End brownstones and Back Bay residences to Seaport apartments and neighbourhood restaurants in Cambridge and Charlestown. Principal designer Katie Goodrich founded the studio in 2013. We take a project from the first layout to the final accessory: architectural consultation, custom millwork, finishes, furniture, procurement and installation. At the end, you walk into a finished home.

How we work in the city

City projects bring their own logistics: building rules, tight stairwells, limited delivery windows and every inch of square footage counting. We plan for that from the start.

Built-ins, bars and storage are designed to the inch, so smaller rooms work harder without feeling crowded.

Custom millwork for city footprints

We order every piece, track lead times and coordinate deliveries. Every item is received and inspected by our partner warehouse before it reaches your home.

Procurement handled end to end

We collaborate with your architect and general contractor, or refer trusted trades if you need them.

Not always on site? That’s fine

If you’re travelling or decorating from a distance, we can work online and handle the on-site details for you.

“I was decorating long distance so we did a lot online and Katie took the extra steps to be there since I wasn’t able to be. She took care of everything and turned over a beautiful completed project.”

Mara DePoalo, Seaport, Boston

“Her design services helped transform our home by using furnishings we brought from the West Coast with a fresh, modern look.”

Marcia Alden, Charlestown

“Katie is a smart designer who did a great job for both of my restaurants… she found really interesting ways to incorporate lighting and texture throughout both restaurants to really make them shine.”

Deepak Diwan, Owner of WuBurger, Cambridge
