We help Poconos short-term rentals perform at their best through data-driven design, smart property upgrades, standout photography, better listings, and practical five-star hosting guidance.
We’re a husband-and-wife team with Master of Architecture degrees from Harvard and more than a decade each working in New York City. We designed, built, and now operate Mori A-Frame ourselves. We bring that rare combination of architectural expertise, real hosting experience, and property-level data to every project—from the first walkthrough to the final listing. We bring refined taste, a clear design point of view, and the hands-on ability to execute. From sophisticated luxury escapes to fully immersive themed stays, we commit to the direction that fits your property—and carry it through to the details.
Strategy before spending
Better questions. Smarter decisions.
Should you allow dogs? How many beds do you really need? Is a hot tub worth the investment? Should that spare room become another bedroom—or a game room?
Whether you're launching your first rental or improving an existing one, we help you make informed choices about what guests want and what your property needs to compete.
We look at comparable listings, guest feedback, local demand, costs, and potential returns to prioritize the decisions that matter—from sleeping capacity and pet policies to amenities, design themes, and listing strategy.
Great design gets attention. Smart decisions make the investment work harder.

What we do
Design smarter.
Host better.
01 /
Design & property upgrades
We shape a clear design direction—quietly refined or boldly themed—and follow it through in layouts, finishes, furnishings, amenities, and the details guests remember.
02 /
Performance & ROI strategy
We study available booking trends, rates, guest reviews, and local competition to guide design investments and identify opportunities to improve your property’s positioning.
03 /
Photos, marketing & listings
A beautiful property needs a compelling first impression online. We help plan photography, refine listing copy, highlight standout amenities, and create a more cohesive guest-facing story.
04 /
Five-star hosting guidance
Drawing on our experience operating Mori A-Frame, we advise on amenities, arrival experience, guest communication, and thoughtful details that support consistently excellent stays.
Design with a reason
Good taste. Better intel.
Taste matters. So does follow-through. We combine a refined design eye with property research and practical execution to make every choice feel intentional.
01 /
Read the signals
Guest reviews, listing photos, occupancy and pricing trends when available, and nearby comparable properties.
02 /
See it firsthand
We walk the space to assess layout, condition, first impressions, comfort, and opportunities the data can't show.
03 /
Prioritize the payoff
We recommend upgrades based on guest experience, cost, practicality, and potential business impact—not trends alone.
Our approach is data-informed, not a guarantee of higher occupancy, nightly rates, or ROI. Recommendations depend on the information available and each property's circumstances.
We built our own proof of concept
Meet Mori A-Frame.
We designed and built our own A-frame getaway from the ground up. Then we became the hosts. Within its first year, Mori A-Frame reached Airbnb’s top 1%, was selected for Airbnb Luxe, and earned us Superhost status.
It also taught us what design school alone never could: what guests notice, what they value, and how thoughtful decisions affect the day-to-day reality of running a rental.
Performance and platform designations reflect our experience with Mori A-Frame; individual property results will vary.

A different kind of design service
We don't design from a distance.
We live close to the Poconos. That means we can actually walk your property, understand its setting, and see where it falls short—or where its biggest opportunity is hiding.
No one-size-fits-all moodboards. No automatic recommendation to renovate everything. Just two experienced architects and fellow hosts giving your property the attention it deserves.
Concept imagery — replace with Nifti projects before launch
One size fits no one
Different stays. Different stories.
From understated luxe retreats to immersive, highly themed getaways, we don't impose one signature look. We refine the direction that suits your property, then go all in—carrying a cohesive idea through materials, murals, furnishings, amenities, and guest-facing details without losing sight of the budget or business goals.
Luxe escapes
Refined finishes, considered details, and elevated comfort for guests seeking something exceptional.
Family adventures
Durable, playful spaces with thoughtful amenities and memorable moments for all ages.
Cabin getaways
Warm, distinctive retreats that make the most of their natural surroundings and sense of place.
Conceptual inspiration imagery, not Nifti client work.
Not just another pretty room
Looks good. Works harder.
Our recommendations connect design choices to real guest needs, market positioning, and your budget. We can also help turn those upgrades into stronger photography, clearer listings, and a more memorable stay.
We review your listing, occupancy and pricing trends (if available), guest reviews, local competitors, goals, and budget.
02.

For Virtual Design, we assess the property remotely through your listing, photos, and shared information. Full Service includes an in-person Poconos walkthrough.
