Spruce is an eco friendly lifestyle concept encompassing Design Services, Décor, Building Products, Finishes and Lifestyle. We are committed to green products but we demand that these products have a high aesthetic design value as well. Within this framework we have created a carefully curated showroom that represents our philosophy. Connecting a client to a green product, educating and linking them to installers is key to the success of a green lifestyle. In this effort we are recruiting, training and sourcing skilled trades and craftspeople to fully understand and install our products.
Our Showroom includes:
- eco surfaces

- eco décor and
- eco outdoor.
With our combined backgrounds in Architecture, Urban Planning, Environmental Sciences and Historic Preservation we offer a comprehensive list of design services for our clients.

Our immediate neighbors include interior designers, design showrooms,specialty linens and art galleries. We hope to further our business on this historic street and become part of the local flavor. We love our space and our eco-modern lifestyle. We enjoy conversations with our design clients and showroom customers over cups of fragrant tea.
