They always talked about having an all-white kitchen. After a few conversations (and scrolls through their Pinterest boards), we drilled down on what these clients 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 wanted from their kitchen.

Our return client’s new house needed a fresh feel.

We started with the foundations of layout, light planning, furniture scale, and symmetry to make this home feel cozy and welcoming before we ever talked colors or fabric swatches.

“Luxury” doesn’t mean upgrading every feature possible.

Instead, we focus on understanding which upgrades or investments will make the biggest and best improvements in your space.

Here’s where we’d skip and what we’d opt for instead →

A couple of minor adjustments led to a major payoff in this busy kitchen.

Our clients, a family of six, were tired of bumping elbows and running into each other during mealtimes. And somehow, there never seemed to be enough kitchen storage or prep space. The catch: we needed to stick within the room’s existing footprint.

For better flow, we added an island sink so someone can wash veggies while another person mans the stove. And we removed the island seating to make room for extra cookware storage and precious countertop space for chopping and serving.

And to make this kitchen a social hub, we added an expandable dining table that seats the entire family, with room to adjust when they have guests over.

We aren't assessing the paint colors or furniture you picked out.

We're evaluating the way your home feels. It's an intangible quality that defines a space; the culmination of all the elements that create a room. By pinpointing that feeling, we can better understand what's needed, and our design blossoms from there.

One of our favorite things to hear during the first month of a project is:

"𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥'𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵."

That's the moment our clients realize they don't have to figure everything out on their own anymore.

Our job is to understand how you live, and uncover opportunities you may not have considered. Ultimately, our job is to guide you toward solutions that make your home feel incredible for years to come.

From day one, we're already thinking several steps ahead, so your renovation feels organized, smooth, collaborative, and far less overwhelming than you imagined.

You don’t need to know all the design lingo.

Our job is to translate our conversations with you into real layouts, materials, storage solutions, and architectural details that support your family’s lifestyle. These are the phrases we hear most often, and how we interpret them. →
