THE PERFECT IMPERFECTION
"BEAUTY IN THE LAYERS OF TIME,
CREATING A BESPOKE HOME THAT TELLS YOUR STORY"
Hello!
I’m Renata, the founder of RG House Art & Design. With the support of a talented team, I’ve been running a boutique interior design firm for over 15 years, along with a home décor shop—and now, a charming vacation rental in the heart of Connecticut, New England.
We offer personalized, one-on-one design consultations, curated design packages, and online interior design services for clients both nationally and internationally.
Beyond interior design, décor, and vacation stays, you can also book a photography session to capture your special moments in our beautifully styled home.
All the best,
Renata Gross
A PASSION FOR HISTORICAL HOMES
With the thought of honoring the past, embracing the present, we understand the importance of celebrating the unique character of your period home and believe that restoring and preserving its original features adds depth, charm, and authenticity to your space, but at the same time considering the practicality and need of modern elements into our modern lives.
If you're extending, we’ll work closely with you to create a seamless connection between the old and new, achieving a perfect balance of historic elegance and contemporary comfort.
DESIGN SERVICES
We know designing & decorating can be fun but challenging; we're here to help you to make the most out of your space. Whether you need help with an entire home, or just don't know which sofa will work in your living room, or how to decorate the coffee table and shelves... Weather you are my neighbor or you live in the other part of the continent we can help you.
Combining well curated elements, mixing luxury/high-end items next to chic, yet budget friendly pieces, vintage, antiques and new are the key pieces of the look that we like to create. If you believe in that direction we probably can "dance" together. However, all projects are created and developed with the same principals.
We discover your style and needs... We create a design concept/mood boards, work a plan/layout, follow by the execution, into a reality!

STAY + SHOP + PHOTOGRAPH
It’s been quite a journey as a creative _ where I have learned many new skills and developed other interests. The newest adventure has been renovating an old New England farmhouse in Connecticut; that we would like to share with you.
We know it’s a forever project... and it's not finished yet. If we wait to complete it we would never be able to share with you! That’s why we’ve decided to open up the doors of this beautiful property for you now; and share what we have been experiencing here. If you’d like to stay in a "project in progress", and enjoy the charm of our old lake house and the charms of our region _ and perhaps get interior design advice for your own decor & renovation project... you are in the right place!
While you are staying with us and would like to register the special moments of the your vacation we also offer photography sessions.
Whether you stay with us or simply want to document your experiences in the area, we’re here to support your creative plans and visions.
VACATION RENTAL
Nestled in the countryside of CT, a historic 1800s farmhouse has been meticulously transformed into a comfortable home, seamlessly blending its rich colonial heritage with modern luxury. We would like to share it with you for laidback weekends.
SHOP & ANTIQUES
Shop our curated vintage and antiques thorough out the house or from our shops. If you are more interested in going on an antique hunting yourself, we can provide a customized vintage & antique itinerary for you to shop until you crash!
PHOTOGRAPHY
Vacation photography is a rapidly growing trend. Say goodbye to selfie sticks—thankfully. More and more travelers are choosing to hire professional photographers to capture stunning portraits of themselves, their partners, or their families in beautiful destinations.
