A full kitchen renovation in 19 seconds.

Which is adorable, because in real life there were approximately 4,000 decisions, 72 conversations, 18 site visits, many measuring tapes, a few surprises behind the walls, and a whole lot of careful ex*****on.

The reel is fast.
The process is not.

But that’s exactly why the result feels so good.

Thoughtful layout, layered finishes, clever storage, and every little detail working hard behind the pretty.

Kitchen magic, MPID style.

A beautiful design only works if it’s executed properly.

That’s why Site Visits are such an important part of our process. We show up during construction to review the details, check the work against the plan, answer questions, catch issues early, and make sure the next layer goes on with confidence.

Because construction moves fast, and the smallest detail in the wrong place can become a much bigger problem later.

This is the less glamorous side of design — the checklists, the measuring, the “no, that tile can’t just end there because it’s easier” conversations.

But it’s also where the magic really happens.

Thoughtful design. Clever solutions. Meticulous ex*****on. That’s how a home starts to feel not just renovated, but considered, complete, and beautifully finished.

When clients come back—again and again—you know it’s working ✨

Three projects together, and each one a little more them.
Because great design isn’t about starting over… it’s about understanding how you live and building from there.

Blending old with new.
Making space feel easier, warmer, more you.

This is what we mean by design that supports real life—layered, thoughtful, and executed so you don’t have to think about it twice.

And honestly? There’s nothing better than hearing “it feels just like us.”

Sometimes when we look back through project photos, we notice moments we didn’t fully appreciate at the time.

These images from Project Colgate aren’t new—but they stopped us mid scroll.

The way the light catches the textures.
The quiet glow of a beautiful fixture.
Those small design moments that make a room feel layered and alive.

Design isn’t always about the big reveal.
Sometimes it’s the tiniest details doing the most beautiful work.

The rest of the house is composed.

The bathroom?
It’s allowed to have opinions.

This is where we say yes to the moody wallpaper.
Yes to the pattern that makes guests look twice.
Yes to a little drama (the good kind).

✨It’s a small room.
✨It can handle it.

The rest of the house is layered, thoughtful, beautifully pulled together.

The powder room?
She’s the one with opinions.

This is where we say yes to the moody wallpaper.
Yes to the pattern that makes you pause.
Yes to the print that would be “too much” anywhere else.

It’s tiny.
It can handle it.

✨ Go ahead. Live a little.

“How much does an interior designer cost?”
It’s one of the most searched questions right now—and for good reason.

In 2026, interior design fees aren’t just about furniture or finishes.
They reflect planning, problem-solving, and ex*****on—the things that protect your time, your budget, and your sanity.

At MPID, our clients aren’t paying for a “look.”
They’re investing in:
• Clear direction
• Fewer costly mistakes
• Thoughtful decisions made early
• A home that works beautifully for real life

Good design doesn’t come from guesswork.
It comes from experience—and a process that supports you from the start.

✨ Our 2026 what things cost guide breaks down what it actually costs to renovate your home so you can plan for what your project actually needs.
