Warm, welcoming, and comfortable are our design core values. Vintage and found objects are at the heart of our design philosophy. The saying, “they just don’t make ‘em like they used to” deeply resonates with us. We love layering, and when we’re stumped on a design, we always turn to nature for an answer. Our goal is to tell your story through design by mixing old and new. Finding special pieces that share your history and heritage, and find creative ways to make your home feel unique and fresh.

Chloe Legras

Founder, Boxwood Avenue

Chloe is the founder and creative behind Boxwood Avenue, with a belief that true luxury is found in simplicity. Drawing from her French roots and a lifelong appreciation for tradition, she shares her perspective through designing spaces that feel approachable and layered.

After leaving city life for a quiet ranch in a town where cattle outnumber people, Chloe began reconnecting to a more grounded way of life. Then, moving to France, Chloe developed her eye for refined goods that imbue the essence of living more meaningfully. This path led to the balance of elevated design with a sense of a beautiful aesthetic that feels "not-too-precious".

why boxwood?

What began as a personal chronicle of Chloe’s travels through France evolved into a rich community and experience for those drawn to slow travel, elevated living, and finding the next up-and-coming artists and makers. A place to slow down to not only reconnect with yourself, but discover a new version all together...
