Éléments de design
Place
At Grant Vetiver, design begins with place, whether city, countryside, mountain, or sea. We attune to its gifts, atmosphere, histories, and spirit. From this foundation, each project emerges as a natural expression of context, always authentic and true.
light
We look to the light to reveal how a room comes alive and finds its magic hour. From first glow to last fade, the study of sun and sky guides every decision, use, plan, and color, through the transitions of day to night and season to season.
Natural light animates everything we live with, shaping atmosphere and illuminating beauty.
COLOR
Nature teaches us how to see color. We compose palettes drawn from the landscape, harmonies of hue that bring aliveness and balance to the eye.
Color defines mood: warm to cool, light to dark, impressionistic to vivid—like dawn breaking or a garden across the seasons.
MATERIALS
We source materials for their natural beauty and integrity. Treated with simplicity and care, they reveal their radiance, proving that even the humblest elements can be the most luminous.
Like pure ingredients, their honesty shines, bringing authenticity and a quiet sense of luxury to every space.
​​
We shape floorplans as living frameworks for daily life pieces of a puzzle that orient what surrounds us and what lies ahead.
​
A well‑crafted plan ensures ease and delight in moving through rooms, from inside to out. We seek clarity and simplicity, refinement and order, balancing logic with beauty to create spaces that feel both purposeful and poetic.

details
Details define the character of a room, ranging from restrained minimalism to refined complexity. We draw on proportion, grace, and studied refinement, while inventive combinations imagine new expressions. Through this lens, tradition is revealed in modern ways, and modern ideas gain lasting significance
antiques
Antiques deepen the soul of a room, whether found treasures or family legacies. They carry the charge of the past, the craft of bygone eras, and the integrity to be timeless. Each piece tells a story, grounding and inspiring in its quiet way. We seek them across time and cultures, and bring them home to live again.
art collecting
Art is illumination. Whether natural or human, figural or abstract, contemporary or archival, we are drawn to works that reveal and reflect. We curate the rare and poetic, photography, painting, sculpture, building collections of resonance, value, and beauty. Through thoughtful placement and framing, each piece comes into vivid focus, shaping atmosphere and meaning.
garden
A garden is design in dialogue with nature, a canvas painted by its abundance. It holds both order and wildness, restraint and wandering paths, each turn revealing discovery. We shape with plan, material, and palette, layered in richness, envisioning a place of peace, reflection, and beauty that is ever-changing, like the seasons themselves.
