Block Island

After years of vacationing on Block Island, Rhode Island, our clients decided it was time to make the island a more permanent part of their family's story.

With four teenage children and years of island memories already behind them, they purchased a home with good bones and plenty of potential, turning to Blakely Interior Design to transform it into a coastal family retreat designed for the way they gather today and for another generation of memories to come.

At the heart of the renovation was creating a more open, connected main level where cooking, dining, relaxing, and spending time together could happen easily. Blakely reworked the interior architecture and carried that vision through every layer of the home, from space planning and ceiling details to custom cabinetry, millwork, finishes, furnishings, color, and pattern.

Today, the home includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two dens, two family rooms, an expansive kitchen, and a built-in dining area, offering plenty of room to come together, spread out, welcome friends, and settle into island life.
