Mark Christofi is an award-winning, published interior design professional with over 25 years of experience. After working with several local designers, Mark established his namesake firm in 1995. He has evolved a fresh, alluring style that juxtaposes traditional and classical elements in unexpected contemporary settings.
"Mark Christofi's work defies artificial labels and antiquated distinctions between "traditional" and "modern." He approaches design with a profound respect for history coupled with a fresh, contemporary sensibility. His interiors place a premium on the essentials of all great design: proper scale, proportion, comfort, and efficiency. They are incredibly stylish without being arch or trendy. Very few designers are able to walk that line with such finesse." —Mayer Rus
What our clients say
The client is central to Mark's process. He begins a project with no preconceived vision. Designs are created 'from' clients. They are not given 'to' clients. What are their likes and dislikes? What is their personality? How do they live and entertain? What is their vision for each space? This discussion and collaboration with each client result in a unique style that immediately feels comfortable and familiar.
"The process of designing my home with Mark was worth everything. Decisions were not made for me but with me. At the beginning, I was living in a home that was new to me. But because I was part of the process, I now feel emotionally attached to my home. Mark made it a wonderful, pleasurable, and painless process." —Wellesley homeowner.
"We have loved working with Mark. He truly understands the give-and-take involved in designing someone else's home. He worked hard to understand our style and then added his unique and creative ideas. The result is a home that feels like us, but is something we could never have conceived on our own!" —Chestnut Hill homeowner.
