Mathison Interiors

Mathison Interiors operates as a full-service residential and commercial interior design firm out of the Grove Hill Business Center on Moores Mill Road, with a separate retail boutique nearby on the same corridor. The firm handles new construction, renovations, remodeling, and design consultations for clients throughout the Auburn area, and the boutique location gives shoppers a chance to browse home goods and decor curated by the same design team without commissioning a full project. It is a locally owned business built around a design showroom model rather than a standard retail storefront, a structure that reflects how much of the firm’s work involves sourcing and specifying materials for a project rather than simply selling finished goods off a shelf.

The design showroom at 1280 Moores Mill Road serves as the firm’s home base for client meetings, material selections, and project planning, while the boutique at 2290 Moores Mill Road operates by appointment and offers a smaller, retail-focused collection of home decor and furnishings selected with the same design sensibility the firm brings to its residential and commercial work. That structure lets Mathison Interiors serve two distinct kinds of customers, homeowners undertaking a full renovation who need a design partner from start to finish, and shoppers looking for a well-curated decor piece without committing to a larger project. Keeping the showroom and the boutique on the same corridor also makes it simple for a client to move between the two as a project develops, walking from a materials meeting straight into the retail space to see finished pieces in person.

Both locations are on Moores Mill Road, a few minutes’ drive from the College Street and Magnolia Avenue downtown corridor, making Mathison Interiors a natural stop for anyone already exploring Auburn’s home and gift retailers who wants to see a more design-driven approach to home furnishing. Because the boutique operates by appointment, visitors are encouraged to reach out ahead of a visit to make sure the space is staffed and ready for a browsing session or consultation.

Running a design showroom alongside a retail boutique means Mathison Interiors serves a wider range of project scales than either a pure design firm or a pure retail shop typically would. A client might start with a small decor purchase at the boutique and later return for a full design consultation once they decide to take on a larger renovation, or the reverse, working with the design team on a new build and later stopping by the boutique to pick up finishing touches for the space. That flexibility, paired with local ownership rather than a franchised home-goods concept, gives Auburn homeowners a design resource that can scale up or down with the size of the project at hand.

For Auburn residents and newcomers furnishing a home, Mathison Interiors offers something between a traditional gift and home shop and a full design studio, all under local ownership rather than a franchised home-goods brand. Its combination of a professional design practice and a curated retail boutique makes it a distinctive addition to Auburn’s Gifts and Home retail landscape, geared toward customers who want more guidance than a typical shelf-browsing experience provides. Its Moores Mill Road address puts it a short drive from downtown, a fitting location for a business that draws clients from across Auburn and the surrounding communities rather than relying solely on foot traffic passing by a downtown storefront window. Scheduling a visit ahead of time also means the team can set aside proper attention for each appointment, rather than splitting focus between a design consultation and walk-in retail traffic at the same time.
