About the Project
Phase 1: This project was a complete renovation of the back half of the home - kitchen, dining, and family room. The kitchen was oddly shaped with an awkward wall breaking up the space. We turned the wall into a column, moved the sink and dishwasher to a much larger island, and created a beverage center plus a focal piece to display the clients' fun objects. New stone on the fireplace, layered custom window treatments, a restored mid-century dining set, and fresh lighting with a backdrop of colorful wallpaper and their collected art made the space complete.
Phase 2: Our clients asked us back to help overhaul their primary suite and give their tween daughter’s room an upgrade. We maximized the space in their primary bath to add much needed storage, refreshed the shower with playful tile, and swapped out their bulky alcove tub for a freestanding pink show stopper. The primary bedroom got a coat of rich teal paint, fresh window treatments, a new rug, and updated furniture that had the whole space feeling brand new. With custom wallpaper, a soft coat of lavender paint, and a delicate window treatment, their daughter’s room transformed into a sweet space that will grow with her.

tile
This hand glazed ceramic backsplash was the perfect pair with our solid oak slab cabinetry.
island
Legs and an apron combined with an end chair make this large island feel more like furniture.
lighting
Soft pink pendants add an unexpected yet classic pop of color contrast.
The back half of the home originally had three different ceiling heights!
We were able to eliminate the unnecessary soffits to create one level plane.
Kind Words from the client
“Thank you for making our dreams come true.
The kitchen space continues to blow me away. It was the absolute best investment.”
