Open Comfort Concept

This client’s main floor was in need of a fresh update. The kitchen cabinets had seen better days, and the living room furniture was ready to be replaced. They wanted the living, dining, and kitchen areas to flow seamlessly, creating a space that felt connected and easy to live in. Improving the kitchen’s functionality was a big priority. They needed more storage in the island and extra seating for family and friends. We raised sight-lines by building the cabinetry to the ceiling, mixed in their cherished antiques to bring warmth and personality, and used a soft blue color palette to tie everything together. The result is a refreshed, welcoming space that blends old and new in a way that feels just right for them.

Modern Living

This client had beautifully renovated their kitchen, but the adjacent living room had become a play space and family catch-all. They envisioned a place to unwind — and a space that could seamlessly flow from the kitchen when entertaining. Leaning into a modern farmhouse vibe, we highlighted the shiplap fireplace, added thoughtful storage, and introduced comfortable furnishings paired with natural wood accents. The result is a room with ease, warmth, and a welcoming impact

Coastal Retreat

This room is a beautiful example of traditional design with coastal influences. Once a large TV and play area, the space was reimagined to suit a family with older children and to create a refined setting for entertaining. With a love for bespoke design, the client wanted to amplify the room’s character while adding functionality. We enhanced the fireplace with detailed millwork and custom built-ins, creating a classic focal point and much-needed storage. By thoughtfully utilizing the entire room, we introduced additional seating and carved out a designated reading nook. Clean lines and a neutral palette keep the space feeling fresh and approachable, while elegant moldings highlight the traditional architecture with a modern sensibility.
