Who We Are

Studio Saint Marie was founded in 2015 and since its inception, we have been seeking the perfect marriage between intentional interior design and high-end construction. Our road was winding, at times more construction focused, for a few years we only designed projects and did not build but worked with builders. Whether it is fate or just four generations of carpentry in our founders DNA, we must be who we are.
​
Designers and Builders.
​
Our in-house cabinet shop and master carpenters ensure that no detail is ever compromised. We build homes and relationships with a genuine reverence for both.
More than a design and build firm, we promise unparalleled home transformations. With project sizes ranging from whole home renovation to a kitchen refresh to a bathroom remodel, we are driven by an obsession to create spaces where people come to gather.
Our goal is to ensure every feature of the project works together to culminate in a sublime encounter for our clients, their guests, their children, and their children’s children.
​​
Creating environments that bring rest and joy and what we hope would be a touch of whimsy to the generations of people who stay in those spaces.
