From Divided Rooms to a Heart-of-the-Home Gathering Space
Transforming a divided 1970s kitchen, formal dining room, and living room into one open-concept gathering space designed for a large extended family.

Designing a Screened Porch That’s a Year-Round Sanctuary
A screened porch can be so much more than a seasonal space—it can become a true year-round sanctuary. In this design, we share how to layer cozy seating, durable materials, and thoughtful details to create an outdoor room that feels just as inviting and functional as the inside of your home.
Taking Risks That Transform a Room
We love a client who's ready to embrace a bold design moment! This dining room is proof that taking risks pays off. The custom wood wall treatment transforms the entire space into a work of art. The organic, flowing pattern creates drama and movement while the shiplap ceiling, upholstered chairs in a sophisticated leaf motif, and rich navy drapes ground the room in elegance. This is dining with personality, a space where every meal feels like a special occasion and every gathering becomes a celebration of both great taste and fearless design.
A Calm & Nature-Inspired Transformation
A primary bedroom should be a true escape, and this space delivers serenity in spades. The botanical wallpaper sets a tranquil, garden-inspired tone while the natural cork headboard and layered neutral linens create a cocoon of comfort. We love how the geometric rug in sunny gold and charcoal adds just the right amount of visual interest without overwhelming the peaceful palette. A bubble chandelier, cozy window seat, and perfectly placed reading chair complete this restful retreat. This is a room that invites you to slow down, take a deep breath, and truly unwind.
Fresh, Designer-Approved Laundry Room Updates (That Are Anything but Boring)
Let’s say the part no one may say out loud: the laundry room does a lot of heavy lifting. It’s where messy real life happens—muddy soccer socks, last-minute outfit changes, towel loads after lake weekends, and the steady rhythm of everyday family living. And yet, it’s often treated like an afterthought.
A Guest Bath That Leaves Nothing to Chance
A guest bathroom might be one of the smallest rooms in a home—but when it’s done well, it leaves one of the biggest impressions. For this project, we treated every square inch as an opportunity to create a space that feels thoughtful, welcoming, and quietly special. The kind of room that makes guests linger just a little longer and think, this house feels good.
Setting a Joyful Holiday Table (Without Overthinking It)
There’s something about a holiday table that sets the tone for the whole gathering. It’s where stories are shared, candles are blown out (sometimes accidentally), plates get passed family-style, and memories quietly take root.
