Our Process
Spaces are defined
by Matter.
SPACES WITH RESONANCE
Every space we co-create with our clients reflects their tastes, interests, priorities, and experiences. A home designed by Matter is not only beautiful but meaningful, filled with objects that have resonance, whether it's a piece by an artist you collect and admire, a book that has moved you or an heirloom handed down by a person you love.
PEACE OF MIND
Our expertise encompasses both creativity and seamless management of your project from start to finish. We plan, design, and remodel your space, manage contractors, protect timelines and budgets, expedite permits, and curate art and objects that reflect your tastes and lifestyle. At each step, we champion your vision and attend to every detail.

“Each home is like a thumbprint.
It’s unique and special to the owner—
filled with objects that hold and reflect personal value and meaning.”

DEVELOPMENT
We create digital design boards and detailed client spec books along with renderings and 3D models that visualize your space and communicate vital information to the architects, contractors, vendors, and other project contributors.

DOCUMENTATION
We produce technical and interior architectural drawings and construction documents to expedite permitting and guide spatial details, including electrical, plumbing, furniture, elevations, millwork, partitions, and more.
