Still very into this pink bathroom. The iridescent pink tile, marbled floor, burgundy vanity with oversized white hardware... there’s a lot going on, but it all works together.

Our client is a self-proclaimed bath person, so we gave the tub its own tiled arch and added French shower doors, which I’m now convinced every shower needs. We also refinished their vintage dental chest for a little patina and some very necessary storage.

Very thankful for clients who trust us enough to really go for it.

A peek at what we’ve been working on for one of the kids bedrooms at our Hinsdale Tudor.

Our client asked for cozy, playful, and creative, with a preference for greens, browns, and purples. We designed the room to feel youthful now, but not something he’ll quickly grow out of, with space for homework, hobbies, and plenty of cozy spots to hang out with his cat. We also carried some of the bolder choices into his bathroom.

The house is still under construction, but with drywall going up, I’m starting to count down to install in early 2027.

School is back in session, which feels like the first tiny hint that fall is coming (not that I’m rushing summer out the door). If you're hoping to complete a home project in 2027 now is the time to start the conversation. Our inquiry form is linked below, and we still have an opening for a full scale renovation project next year.

Every special historic home we work is also our client. At our Humboldt project, there was already plenty to respond to: the original wood trim, stained glass, lighting, and all of the character that had accumulated over time.

We never want to walk into a home with a look we’ve already decided on. We start with what’s there, figure out what’s worth preserving, and let those details help shape what comes next. The house is part of the equation, just as much as the people who live there.

Manifesting midcentury…⁠
⁠
We are grateful to work on any home that has a history, but thinking about the possibility of bringing a mid-century gem back to life has me dreaming and scheming. Think textured stone, colored glass, and rich woodwork alongside my magic mix of textiles. ⁠

Working on a client’s forever home is so personal in the best way and we love to settle into the details. Nothing goes in just to fill space: artistry, function, and meaning all coincide.⁠

What’s something you always bring into a space to make it feel like you?⁠

Pattern is a big part of our design language, but I don't think it's the only way to make a room interesting. Layering textiles, texture, and subtle shifts in color can be just as compelling.

This bedroom is wrapped in deep shades of blue, with cozy materials everywhere from the bedding to the integrated upholstered headboard. We didn't leave a surface unconsidered.

One of the most satisfying before and afters! These built-ins used to disappear into all the wood in our Humboldt dining room, so we gave them their own moment with a fresh coat of paint and a geometric wallpaper on the backs.⁠
⁠
We pushed the pattern mixing in this space by balancing scale while keeping the color palette consistent. The original woodwork and light fixtures also help ground everything, so it feels layered but not overwhelming.⁠

Not all behind-the-scenes involve beautiful job sites. A surprising amount of interior design happens while answering emails, sourcing, reviewing quotes, and keeping projects moving. Somewhere along the way I found that I focus better when I keep myself moving too.
