Providence House

For Providence House, Martyn Lawrence Bullard transformed a stately New England colonial into a fearlessly maximalist luxury residence where bold pattern, world-class art and bespoke design exist in perfect, exhilarating harmony. A graphic black and white geometric marble entry foyer, an emerald green tufted velvet living room and a jewel-box dining room with malachite lacquered ceilings and dark grasscloth walls each tell their own confident story while speaking the same fearless design language.

“I always design for the person and the personality, not for a theme of my choosing. Providence House demanded drama, wit and absolute commitment to beauty, and that is exactly what we delivered.”

Martyn’s signature maximalist approach layers pattern upon pattern, material upon material, to create interiors that feel as intellectually alive as they are deeply livable.

From the enchanting woodland tree wallpapered guest bedroom with its sculptural iron tree canopy bed, to the dark and moody games room complete with pink billiard table and full bar, to a pristine white lacquer kitchen of modernist clarity and a powder room of infinite mirrored glamour, Providence House is proof that a traditional architectural shell is simply a canvas waiting for a fearless hand.
