It really is all in the details.
Zoomed in on a beautiful custom cabinet, stunning artwork and lighting and of course… the layers of accessories. We love sourcing every part and we style every one of our projects.After being so invested in the design of the project- finishing off the space by curating accessories and artwork allows a project to feel truly finished.

When I say that we fixate on the details, I mean it.This shower is an example of how every little detail matters.Plumbing fixtures aligned with the tile layout, niches aligned and purposefully sized.

Feeling the LOVE!

We are very excited to have won Best of Houzz for both Design and Service again this year!We are honored to have been named for both, for the ELEVENTH consecutive year since starting our firm!Humbled to be named as a leader in the industry and so thankful to our clients and the @houzz community for recognizing us with the awards.We pride ourselves on providing top-notch service to our clients and giving our all to each and every project.We have been so fortunate to continue to work with fabulous clients this past year and are very excited about all the amazing projects we are working on in 2026!Very grateful for my amazing team and the followers who support us as well.Thank you.

It’s been hard to motivate myself to post on IG recently, with the heaviness of the world at the moment, posting beautiful spaces feels unnecessary.However, design isn’t just what we do for a living.Honestly, it’s what we LOVE doing each day.Creating spaces where our clients feel secure, comfortable and where families can connect is a joy that I carry with me every day. If this is a space we can bring just a little beauty and light into the darkness- then I will take it.Here’s to one step at a time.

“Life without love, is no life at all” - Leonardo da Vinci

Stay well, my friends.

This home was installed close to ten years ago.Which is crazy… because there is no way that I’m that old.Clearly that’s not the point of this post though.The point is, that unlike my need for more skincare products, timeless interiors never age.I still love everything about this room. Timeless interiors for the win!

Another wild transformation from a lake house in Northern Michigan!

Previously a dumping ground for storage and golf clubs, in an unfinished over-the-garage space, this bathroom is now a beautiful and functional space.I love everything about this bathroom- the cabinetry, the hardware, the plumbing, the paneling, the lighting.This beautiful and detailed mosaic floor is also such a gorgeous addition to the space.

I hear 2016 is calling... and you know what is STILL in?Timeless, classic interiors that stand the test of time.This project, for instance, is ten years old and I still love it!In 2016, I was a year into starting my own business and so happy to have made that leap, I was also in the throes of motherhood with a 3 year old and I was pregnant with our second.There were lots of very late nights, running on fumes and while I look back on those times wondering how I kept all my ducks in a row… I cherish every single moment of those times.The exhaustion and the pure happiness coincided beautifully.

Looking back, one thing also rings true.We have never been a studio that follows “trends”. Sure, we understand them, but they don’t make the decisions for us.They will only make your space feel dated over time.Find pieces that are meaningful to you, that make your space reflective of your personality, that are timeless and you won’t go wrong.You will end up with spaces that are more authentic and functional and stand the test of time.
