The Boston Common Holiday

About the design:

Inspired by a traditional show house, our team transformed the iconic Presidential Suite at the Mandarin Oriental, Boston blending modern elegance with the festivity of the holiday season to create a luxurious escape for the senses. Our goal was a visual experience from the moment guests arrive. We married the existing design elements, like the whimsical chinoiserie bedroom wallpaper, with our firm’s interior design style and personal aesthetic. For a calming yet festive feel we landed on a color story of blue hues and contrasted it with warm metallics. Bows in all fabrications, from velvet to silk chiffon, are a strong trend for holiday this year – which aligns perfectly with our design ethos, contemporary with timeless elegance.
