Did you guess the vent hood?

The client had a clear vision for this kitchen from the start, and once everything went white, we both agreed the room needed warmth. A stained wood hood was the answer.

The tricky part was getting that custom, stained look while staying mindful of the budget. So we did our homework and researched the most affordable way to make it happen.

Our solution: we ordered the hood unfinished from an online vendor, then gave it a custom stain once it arrived. The client got the warm, tailored finish she wanted, and the budget stayed right where it needed to be.

The big moments in a room often come down to one smart decision like this.

Want a kitchen that’s always clean when company is over? Then you need a prep kitchen that can handle the messy work.

In this galley prep kitchen, we worked in plenty of storage, counter space, a sink, a dishwasher, and a fridge, so the messy parts of entertaining could stay out of sight.

If you had a setup like this in your home, which would you use most: the main kitchen or the prep kitchen? Tell us below.

A beautiful home deserves a backyard to match.

This one includes a raised spa, fountain bowls on stone columns, mature oaks, and a covered kitchen/dining area steps from the pool. This outdoor living space was planned as an extension to the beautiful finishes just inside.

If you’re planning a custom home or a major renovation in Austin, we’d love to help build a design you can’t wait to step into. Tap that link in bio to start a conversation.

The part of lighting everyone gets excited about is choosing the fixtures, but there are a few rules most people don’t think about, and they affect how your home feels just as much as the prettiest chandelier.

Swipe for my rules of thumb to wrap up our lighting series, and if you’re planning a new build or renovation, let’s talk! I’d love to help you plan the lighting for your home.

Can’t find a range hood you love? Make it disappear.

This home’s cooktop sits right under a window, with the ventilation hidden from view.

Where do you land: no hood and all window, or do you still love a statement range hood? Comment below.

Have you ever noticed how some homes look even better at night? Accent lighting is usually the reason.

This is the layer that highlights what you love most about a room. That could be the artwork above the console, the stone around the fireplace, or the glassware on an open shelf. It adds depth and warmth, and it makes a space feel complete after dark.

Replacing the floors in a home you love shouldn’t make it feel like someone else’s house.

These clients need new wood floors, but they don’t want everything to suddenly feel new and completely different. So, we’re choosing a wood floor similar to what they have now and building the rest of the selections around it, including warm textures and colors.

This is the fun part, when material selections come out on the dining room table so our client can see the soft wood tones, cream tiles, touch of sage green, wallpaper, and textures all in one place.

And yes, those are towels under everything. We still haven’t found a more attractive way to protect a client’s dining table, so they come along.

Which detail catches your eye?

If you want to start demo this spring, remember that most of a remodel happens before construction starts.

The earliest steps include design concepts, budgets, drawings, selections, and ordering. There may need to be engineering and permitting involved. And that all comes before anything actually changes in your home.

Here’s how a project unfolds with us:

The design brief: We start with a conversation about your project’s scope and budget, then walk your space together to talk through function, style, and the materials you’re drawn to. Inspiration photos help, especially when you can tell us what you love about them.

Dream Team: Pulling in a plan designer, contractor, and trusted trades to execute the vision.

Drawings: These allow everyone to clearly see the design, scope of work and the trades can reference them for their quotes.

Selections: We narrow the options for you and pull them together for a cohesive end result.

Ordering: Once selections are approved, we forward specs to the contactor so materials are ordered before the build needs them.

Construction: Because the selections are made ahead of time, your builder isn’t left waiting on decisions. We stay involved through installation.

Starting early gives you time to enjoy the process and have time to curate your dream space instead of being stressed and making rushed decisions.

One inch can make a huge difference.

On paper, a layout can look perfect. Everything lines up, and the elevation drawings are clean. Then you move in and find that one small measurement changes how you use your space.

Let’s make sure appliance doors clear adjacent cabinets and walls, the dishwasher has room to open fully, and the drawers that meet up in the corner have space to clear each other’s cabinet hardware! Spending time reviewing drawings and specs prior to construction and ordering can save painful changes later.

Save this for your next kitchen remodel and follow for more like it.

If pumpkin spice is the only fall drink you've tried, you're missing out.

Swipe for one of my favorite fall cocktails (plus a mocktail).

When we designed this bar for our Bunny Run project, we wanted a spot that makes having friends over easy, and a good fall drink is a great excuse to use it.

What's your go-to drink once fall arrives? Tell me below.
