It starts with an idea.

It Starts with a Desire for Change.

Often we overhear people discussing their desire to "update the look", "pull it together", "makeover", or "ready to remodel".  Some have been pondering it for years; collecting ideas and pieces they love. Others are motivated by the purchase of an appliance, cabinetry or furniture.... they come to realize changing one thing will begin the domino process.

It is common to forge ahead with confidence utilizing ideas found in magazines or on the web, focused on your wants, needs and style......it quickly for many becomes overwhelming.  Assisting Homeowners and Contractors with meaningful solutions and direction to their "Makeover"and "Remodeling" ideas and concerns like these is exactly what we do.

Function before the frosting.

Our Approach

Our  "Function Before the Frosting"  approach  helps prioritize each project; regardless of its size; and sometimes in stages.  Once the "function" of the space is defined, we evaluate budget, traffic flow, scale, spatial considerations, finally decorative options can now be considered.  This approach protects your return on investment and brings forth a fresh aesthetic, in balance with the rest of your home.

A love of balance and harmony, a formal education in Design, plus 29+ yrs. hands-on experience in the building trades  all come together with creative ideas & solutions unique to each client and their home. 

Creating a space you’ll love.

Design Process

It starts with a desire for change.  The process and the ability to carry it out  can be an overwhelming and daunting task. Choices are overwhelming, and everyone you know has an opinion.......all different. Knowing what styles suit you - your home and budget are critical.

We help you navigate that. Resale for your neighborhood, not overspending the value, and avoiding trends that can hurt you later are key; I help you navigate that. Consulting a professional helps build the "bridge" and is why we offer Ala Carte services.
