ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Long before I earned my formal Architecture Degree, I developed an early fascination with the history, craftsmanship, and stories held within the many old homes in my home state of New York. From a young age I was always making things - taking on woodworking and restoration projects, first with my Dad and eventually on my own. I learned firsthand how materials come together and how a space can be transformed with just a few tweaks.

This early curiosity led me to an education and career in architecture, where I developed a deeper understanding of proportion, space planning, and materiality. My professional experience in high-end residential architecture continued to shape that perspective and reinforce the importance of intentional details and materiality in shaping the overall feeling of a space.

Today, through Claire Muriel Design, I bring together those influences of architectural thinking, hands-on craftsmanship, and a love of history and interiors, to create thoughtful residential spaces that feel both beautiful and livable.

I’m Claire, the designer behind Claire Muriel Design.
