Newburyport, Mass.—April 7, 2009—CURRIER & Associates, Inc., a full-service interior design firm specializing in creating enriching environments for living, healing and working, today announced it was ranked in the top 25 of the largest interior design firms in Massachusetts for the second consecutive year.

The listing, which appeared in the March 20-26 issue of The Boston Business Journal, ranked interior design firms according to their billings within Massachusetts last year. CURRIER’s billings for its Massachusetts projects of $1,080,000 resulted in this ranking.
