Gracyn R. Whitman of Marshall/Whitman Design
With her clean lines and inspired style, we know working with Gracyn R. Whitman will always result in a beautifully designed space for our interior wood shutters, shades or blinds. Gracyn has been working in Boston and greater New England for the past 14 years and has won numerous awards. Her creativity was evident in a job we did with her in Cambridge, where we used a quarter sawn white oak shutter panel for a vintage white oak front door. Her inspired work has been featured in The Boston Globe, This Old House Magazine, Better Homes & Gardens, , and Kitchen Solutions.
