Wells Cottage is a 1,500-square-foot coastal retreat in southern Maine, reimagined in a soft Scandinavian style with driftwood accents and custom millwork throughout.

Designed as a serene getaway, this cottage balances simplicity with warmth—inviting in the calm, airy spirit of the nearby shoreline. The layout was refined to maximize natural light and function, with open-concept living areas that feel both intimate and expansive.

Custom millwork provides quiet texture, while hand-finished driftwood details echo the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. A soft, neutral palette of whites, sand tones, and pale grays keeps the interior feeling fresh and grounded. The result is a peaceful, intentional space that blends Nordic minimalism with coastal New England charm. Our focus? A cozy den, quaint guest bath, and full kitchen renovation. The goal? Maximize space and make it feel clean but interesting.
