The pinboard
by the
front window.
Wild Sprig Studio is a small interior decoration practice in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. We work on five houses at a time, and we keep a pinboard for each of them. The board you see below is for the present project: the Wescott house in Hudson, NY. A snapshot of where we are at week eleven.

— § II · How we work —
Three scopes
of work.
Three ways to begin. We accept five projects a year. We will tell you, very early, if we cannot help; the early honesty is worth more than the late.

The Whole House
Our principal commission. Six months on the pinboard, two seasons on site, one move-in week with us in the house. Three to five houses a year.
from £180,000+ 22% on supplied goods
▌ SCP · 03 ▌
The Consult
Half a day on site, a written letter, three pinboards, no contract. For rooms in flight; for paint-card debates; for the houses we cannot take but want to help.
£2,400 flatsingle visit · in NY only
— § III · A first letter —
If you have
a house, or a room,
in mind.
We answer every letter by hand within ten days. The first conversation is short; the second is the house. We do not take on a project before we have stood in the room and watched its light for a day.

A room should feel like you.
Share photographs, the pieces you want to keep and how you use the room.
Bring a room to lifeFrom the first sketch
A considered path from idea to place.
Understand the site
Light, context, daily routines and the constraints of the property shape the brief.
Explore the possibilities
Review layouts, materials and priorities together before committing to a direction.
Resolve the details
Agree the scope, the next decisions and the responsibilities that carry the work forward.
Good to knowA few things
A few things
you might ask.
What should I bring to the first conversation?
A location, a few photographs and a sense of your priorities are a useful start. Drawings and surveys help when available.
Can we discuss an early-stage idea?
Yes. An initial brief can explore feasibility, priorities and the questions to resolve before a detailed design begins.
How are budgets and timelines established?
They depend on the site, scope and approvals. Request a project-specific proposal before making commitments.
The next step
Bring a room to life.
Share photographs, the pieces you want to keep and how you use the room.
