In the Frame

Our muse for this project was based on a myriad of things - sense of place, texture, and more, see why we were so inspired by all that the city of Portsmouth has to offer with a few of our selected faves.

Spotlight

As we open our doors to a new era, we’re also opening our hearts to the community that inspires us. Portsmouth’s thriving arts scene is the soul of this city, and we’re honored to celebrate one of its cornerstones: 3S Artspace.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of 3S Artspace—a nonprofit contemporary arts organization that has been a hub for performances, exhibitions, and dialogue since day one. Their work fosters creativity and inclusion, sparking conversations that matter and offering a platform for diverse voices in the arts.

Inspired by The Bow

“Inspired by The Bow, A thoughtful reimagining of a former Ale House Inn, The Bow Hotel blends industrial history with modern artistry. From tile walls that serve as statement pieces to a design rooted in Portsmouth’s creative spirit, this transformation is anything but ordinary. We sat down with Meg Kennedy, the principal designer, to talk inspiration, process, and the intention behind every detail.”
