Meet your designer

At Justine Sterling Design, great design isn’t only about aesthetics—it’s about discovering what home truly means to you and crafting a space that reflects your lifestyle with effortless functionality. One client put it best: “Now I get it—you’re not just designers; you’re risk managers, and you sell trust.”

With over 30 years of experience, Justine has built a reputation for creating layered interiors, modern yet cozy, and refined yet livable. Whether a full-scale renovation or a carefully curated interior, our Discovering Home process ensures every choice is intentional, balancing sophistication with warmth and practicality. By guiding you through decisions with clarity and expertise, we help you avoid costly mistakes and create a home that feels just right. At Justine Sterling Design, we don’t just create beautiful interiors, we help you design a home you love without the stress of making the wrong decisions. Because, in the end, home isn’t just about how it looks—it’s about how it makes you feel.

Justine’s work has been featured in New England Home, Coastal Home, North Shore Home, Modern Luxury Interiors Boston, The Boston Globe, and Boston Home. She is an award-winning designer based just north of Boston with a portfolio spanning urban condominiums, historic renovations, and new construction homes. She values integrity, collaboration, and a commitment to excellence, principles that guide every project. When she’s not designing, she enjoys tennis, pilates, and spending time with her husband, son, and daughter.
