Fall In Love

WHEN THEY DISCOVERED AN 1880 FARMHOUSE IN A QUIET BOSTON SUBURB, Laura Hamburg and her husband were over the moon. “I wanted a place with a sense of history, a weeping willow and fruit trees,” she says.

The couple got what they wished for in a storied home complete with an apple orchard—all it was missing was the willow. Hence, Laura named her design business Willow Street Interiors.

She describes her style as a delicate blend of classic, casual and unexpected elements. “There’s definitely a nod to the past in each room of our home, either through the use of a restored, vintage furniture piece or reclaimed wood taken from the renovation,” she says.
