Style
Spring Refresh
Tuckernuck
Just a short walk away from Tuckernuck’s flagship Georgetown boutique lives our company headquarters. Tucked away on a cobble-stone street in a lovely old brownstone, the office recently underwent a full style renovation, and we’re delighted to unveil the Tuckernuck Office Tour.
A true collaboration between the senior Tuckernuck team – Founders Jocelyn Gailliot, Maddy Grayson and September Rinnier, and Creative Director Sophie Newbold – and local interior designer Zoe Feldman, the space is full of classic style, and sprinkled with unexpected elements of humor and nostalgia.

The artwork was found on Chairish. The campaign chest Jocelyn found while antiquing on Nantucket.

The gallery wall features toungue-in-cheek renditions of emojis, done by Creative Director Sophie. The bust was done by Founder Maddy and Jocelyn's brother.
“When we decided to move into a new office, we wanted to reflect the history of the historic Georgetown building while creating a space that felt functional, but unexpected, soulful and like a home. We had a lot of fun bringing our love of antiques, interesting collectibles and modern art and furniture into our working environment”
– Gailliot
“We originally got to know each other as neighbors, renting office space in the same building. And years later, when the Tuckernuck team approached me about this project, I was immediately excited to do it because they have great style. It was one of the most collaborative projects I’ve ever done, because they’re creatives too, and I was able to help them execute our vision”
–Feldman
“Our tastes are similar, but not the same, which allowed for a more eclectic, layered final project. And the Tuckernuck team’s style is sophisticated, so it was fun to showcase that complexity. We stayed on-brand, and dug a little deeper. The office is now very much a reflection of who they are as people, in their own homes”

The Platner table was a hand-me-down from Jocelyn and Maddy's parents. The pitcher is from Pillar and Post, a Georgetown antique store.
-
The mantle was painted Farrow and Ball's Inchyra Blue. The boots belonged to Jocelyn and Maddy's grandfather. The print is by D.C. Artist Gene Davis.
-
The mannequins were found at local D.C. antique store Goodwood. Jocelyn's childhood self portrait hangs above the desks.
-
The wallpaper is juxtaposed with a modern chair and high gloss black doors.
“We have a passion for layers of color, textiles and different periods of art and furniture. Zoe helped give us the confidence to take some risks that make the space beautiful, such as the black doors, painted mantels and marble-like wallpaper in the greeting room. The office is filled with things that make us happy and trigger special memories for us”
– Gailliot
“We designed it on a budget, and because we wanted it to feel like a reflection of our brand and style it took longer to source. But it was worth every penny, as we love to go to work every day, and we use the backdrops often for photoshoots”
– Gailliot
“The team spaces are on-brand, with the gallery wall of favorite Tuckernuck images, plaids, their bucket list. A little Nantucket red”

As a company of mostly women, the need for a lactation room was apparent. Various pieces of art featuring the female form are on display.

“I love the black-and-white gallery wall over the burl-wood console in the great room that Sophie did. Such a fabulous little vignette. And as a woman and mother, I love that they have a lactation room – we made it very whimsical with the boob art and stripes”
– Feldman
“There’s a beautiful tension in the space – modern art combined with more classic pieces. It makes it a little more 70s. There are unexpected elements and combinations in a space that you might have thought would be exactly one way. They incorporated a lot of vintage pieces, and it’s very heirloom in that way. But still very them”
– Feldman
