CBT Names Jan Abercrombie and Jillian Gaviani Directors of Interior Design

CBT is pleased to announce the promotion of Jan Abercrombie and Jillian Gaviani to Directors of Interior Design. Building on their years of experience and leadership at CBT, the two will lead the firm's interior design practice as it supports existing clients, pursues new opportunities, and brings its expertise to a broader range of clients.

Together, Jillian and Jan bring complementary strengths in design vision and project execution. They will lead an accomplished interiors team whose work spans workplace, multi-family, academic, and hospitality environments. With a portfolio that includes award-winning projects such as Idyl Fenway, ongoing work for clients like The Brattle Group and VHB, and work at the recently completed One Harbor Shore Drive, the practice brings deep experience and a collaborative approach to every engagement.

Abercrombie, who has spent 30 years at CBT, brings extensive project management experience and longstanding client relationships to her new role. “As I begin this next chapter, I'm energized by the opportunity to lead a talented team and continue designing spaces that help people connect, collaborate, and thrive. I'm grateful for the experiences that brought me here and excited for all that's still to come,” said Abercrombie.

Gaviani sees her new role as an opportunity to build on the team’s strengths and bring CBT's design expertise to new clients and markets. “As designers, it's our responsibility to create thoughtful, purposeful spaces that resonate with people and enrich their everyday lives. We bring the greatest value when we translate a client's vision into spaces that make a lasting difference,” said Gaviani.

Please join us in congratulating Jan and Jillian as they take on these new leadership roles.
