This young family of six had completely maxed out their kitchen storage and didn’t have room to eat meals all together. See how we solved these problems while bringing the outdoors in to this Modern Rustic kitchen!

For many expecting families today, the biological sex of their child is often a total surprise right until the moment they arrive. As a result of this trend, we are often presented with a design brief asking us to pull together a more gender-neutral space that would work well for any new bundle of joy.

With the busy holiday entertaining season right around the corner, we thought we’d take the opportunity to write about a topic that comes up often with our clients: The best way to create a “mix-and-match” look with dining room furniture.

Whether our design brief requires a serene setting for a brand new bundle, or an energetic hangout for a burgeoning “big kid,” creating a child’s bedroom is always such a privilege and a joy. Can you think of a more important assignment for an interior designer?

When it comes to a home design project, there’s nothing quite as exciting — or as daunting — as tackling a kitchen. And after almost ten years in the business, with just about as many kitchen projects now under my belt, I’ve learned a thing or two about what it takes to make this central hub of any home as functional as it is beautiful.

As someone who primarily focuses on interiors, it always feels like a rare and special treat when my design work has the opportunity to spill across the threshold to the exterior of a client’s home. These projects are most often focused on things like patios and pool rooms, but today I get to share a fun before and after for a completely different type of project — a new porch addition!

Today I’m excited to share with you a recently completed outdoor space I began working on in the spring. These are previous clients of mine and I was so happy they asked me to come back and help them outfit their patio. Outdoor spaces are one of my favorite areas of the home to design. I love the idea of outdoor living and how it can expand the usable space of your property. Its versatility presents a wide range of uses. Relaxing, dining, entertaining, playing, and heck even an outdoor home office - whatever you need it to be!

The concept for a master bedroom has evolved greatly over the years, what was once just a place to sleep has now turned into a more complex multipurpose retreat. 

When I start working with a new client I usually walk into a space and see the potential of what it could be.  Not in a judgmental way! I’m not picking apart what is wrong with the cosmetics of a house or room so much as I immediately begin to visualize how this space can be best utilized for the homeowner.
