Emily Rand of A Visual Pursuit Designs a Nostalgic Boothbay Cottage
On a serene cove at the end of Linekin Bay sits an unassuming dream house. It’s not grand or posturing—three bedrooms, a woodstove in the living room, a dining table scooped up at a rotary sale years ago for $40. It’s well over a century old, and in some places the floors have enough tilt to double as a marble run. And always, against it all, is the sea.

Stephanie Rae Interiors Refreshes a 1925 John Calvin Stevens Shingle-Style Home for Her Family
Stephanie Mahaney and her family traded palm trees for pine trees when they moved from South Florida to Falmouth Foreside and landed in one of the region’s classic John Calvin Stevens-designed homes. Built in 1925 as a classic Shingle Style summer home and dubbed “Fairways” for its proximity to Portland Country Club’s links, the property was in great shape but required thoughtful updates to work for their family of five.
Decor Maine’s 2026 Definitive Guide
We are, without question, a state fiercely loyal to our traditions. Case in point: Whether you actually like the taste of Moxie or not, you probably are still going to defend the stuff. You might even shake up a cheeky summer party cocktail in honor of it. And it’s exactly that past-is-prologue pluck—that dovetailing of history and innovation—that manifests itself in the very best of what Maine has to offer every year—and is also exactly what makes discovering all of it such a joy.
Writer Josh Billings’ Mini Memoir
Eight years ago, after my wife and I had finally begged, borrowed, and stolen enough of a down payment to buy a house in western Maine together, my first thought was: How are we going to fill it? (Actually, my first thought was: I can’t believe I just bought a house with a furnace the size of Mary Anne from Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel? but that’s another story). I can still remember our first walk-through before we’d moved in.
Hot Spot: Aomori
It’s a Sunday night just on the heels of its grand opening, and already Aomori—West Bayside’s elegant-yet-cozy spot at the base of the spiffy Armature building—feels like it’s been a Portland institution for ages. In part that’s because the newcomer is an izakaya—a Japanese neighborhood gastropub.
Artist and Weaver Sarah Haskell’s Woven Works
So often the task of outfitting a home circles themes of longevity. What will, either materially or stylistically, stand the test of time. Whether it’s through interior design or the artwork we live side-by-side with like aesthetic life-partners. When it comes to choosing trappings for our intimate spaces, we often choose colors and shapes, lines and materials that speak to the meaning of the lives that unfold there, room by room. But as we all know, nothing lasts forever.
The Art of Bianca Beck
Known for their vibrantly painted sculptures and expressive painting son wood, Portland-based artist Bianca Beck is wildly accomplished in both mediums. Using the human figure as inspiration, they move beyond mere representation while preserving gestural energy, creating works that complement each other and even seem to collude. “The human form is always in transformation, moving, aging, growing, shrinking, shedding skin, and changing,” says Bianca.
Studio Visit with Linden Frederick
Observing a painting of Linden Frederick’s, a humble building outlined by the encroaching dusk, one can almost hear the crickets and feel the crisp evening air. For most of his career, the Maine-based painter has focused his creative powers on depicting small-town America. Quotidien architecture—the warehouse, the diner, the shop, take on new life, even an air of mystery, when viewed from his perspective.
