Happy Anniversary Details! Nine years ago today we held our Grand Opening celebration at our previous location. We were (and still are!) two sisters on a mission to build a business from scratch. Over the past nine years we have grown to a team of five and expanded to a bigger showroom. Wonder what will be next??
Sending out a BIG 'Thank You' to all of our clients and colleagues for keeping us going!
Looking to Age-In-Place?
We can help you! Our designer, Nathan, is now a Certified Aging-In-Place Specialist (CAPS)!
What is CAPS?
Nathan has earned his designation as a Certified Aging-In-Place Specialist, CAPS by the National Association of Home Builders, NAHB. He completed a three-day training program equipped with technical, customer service and marketing skills required to effectively service the burgeoning market for aging-in-place home modifications.
Demographic trends indicate that homeowners who plan to stay in their homes, as they get older instead of making other housing accommodations are one of the fastest growing segments of the residential design and remodeling market. Many of these households can be expected to call on designers and remodelers to adapt their homes to their changing needs and lifestyles in order to maintain their independence.
What is "Aging-In-Place"?
Aging-in-place means living in one’s home safely, independently and comfortably, regardless of age, income or ability level. It means the pleasure of remaining in a familiar environment throughout one’s maturing years, and the ability to enjoy the familiar daily rituals and the special events that enrich all our lives. It means the reassurance of being able to call a house a home for a lifetime.
Projects for the aging-in-place design and remodeling segment range from installation of bath and shower grab bars and adjustment of countertop heights to the creation of multi-functional first-floor master suites and the installation of private elevators.
Nathan’s CAPS training involved learning the mechanics and nuances of effective assessments of clients’ needs and integrating myriad considerations into unified, aesthetically pleasing, functional solutions.

We are very excited to announce a new addition to the Details team... Welcome Nathan Reynolds-Poulin!
Nathan’s artistic sensibilities are rooted in his interior design background and education. For the past eight years, he has created numerous residential, commercial, hospitality, and institutional spaces throughout New England. He particularly enjoys the DESIGN + BUILD process of working with clients on remodeling projects—from defining the scope and finalizing the budget, to identifying the fun and exciting decisions and guiding materials selection prior to the installation phase.
An award-winning interior designer, Nathan, collaboratively with his previous employer, won GOLD for the Residential Kitchen design category between $100,001.00 - $150,000.00 at the CotY – Contractor of The Year 2012 Awards, Eastern Massachusetts Region by NARI – National Association of the Remodeling Industry. A graduate of Wentworth Institute of Technology, Nathan received his Bachelor of Science degree in Interior Design. He is an active member of the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) and looks forward to sharing his design expertise for the benefit of Kitchen & Bath Details clients.

We always ask our clients to do their homework: Clip out inspiration photos for their project and make a little (or BIG in some cases!) folder. These folders, full of ideas and images, help us gain a sense of our client’s style, wants and needs.
As we evolve with the technology, we are now using the ever so fabulous Pinterest for digital “inspiration folders.” We are pinning away at Details and greatly encourage you, as our future clients, to get pinning! Check out a few of our “inspiration” pins.
We hope that you will take a moment and check out our growing collection of inspiration photos as well as our board of completed projects. Be sure to "follow" us to see what is in store for the future!

Happy Pinning!
