A CEILING DESIGNED TO HOLD ENERGY The symbolism & sacred geometry within our client’s living room ceiling mural.
When we proposed painting my client’s living room ceiling in a traditional mural style, I knew I wanted it to be more than just beautiful imagery. I wanted the ceiling to hold meaning and emanate a harmonizing and balancing frequency - something that you would not only take in visually but also somatically. 
Using principles of sacred geometry and bio geometry alongside intentional visual iconography, every element was designed with meaning. There is an interplay between order, structure and grounding with more organic hand painted forms representing softness, movement and life. The Polarity of our existence that when in harmony creates a powerful centering quality. For more indepth info - swipe through the ceiling, symbol by symbol.
In this opening image the ceiling is more than beautiful imagery — it is designed to hold and emanate a beautiful frequency, something you actually FEEL when you enter the room.

FLOWER OF LIFE In the center, a sacred geometry Flower of Life pattern is stenciled lightly onto the ceiling — a pattern intended to create a centering and harmonizing effect within the room emanating harmonious wave qualities outward into the space. 

MERIDIANS The beams act like meridian lines, carrying the energy patterns across the room and connecting them to the horizontal border. At the end of each beam are three dots which symbolizing completeness and the three core dimensions of human existence - mind - body - spirit.

CLOSING THE CIRCUIT The perimeter band incorporates the greek meander, which is a symbol of infinity, unity and flow.  Within the Meander the solid squares represent stillness, presence and potential “the void”, where as the checkerboard represents Duality, movement and manifestation. Together this represents the relationship between being and

Why do clients come to TKD? Because an exceptional home takes more than a beautiful vision. Here’s what makes us different.

We bring together interior architecture + design, construction knowledge, real estate development experience, and a deeply emotional approach to design. Four disciplines, one studio.

We don’t believe in formulaic design. No two clients, homes, or lifestyles are alike — so neither is our approach. Each home is an individual expression of its architecture, its setting, and the people whose lives will unfold inside it.

Our integrated approach lets us think holistically — from the architecture and flow of a space to its furnishings, materials, and the smallest details. Conceived together, beautifully resolved.

Beauty and functionality are essential. But so is how a space makes you feel — how it supports and nourishes your everyday living experience.

Creating an exceptional home requires understanding how spaces are built — and how design decisions affect feasibility. Our development and construction experience means we know what it takes, and we know the people who can make it happen.

We balance ambitious design with a sophisticated understanding of budgets and the build process — helping you make confident decisions and invest thoughtfully in your home.

We leave space for each home to tell its own story. That means deep listening, thoughtful guidance, clear communication, and genuine care — from first sketch to final installation.

What a dream it was to redesign a portion of the historic Vanderbilt Mansion on Fisher Island this year.
Historic architecture has so much depth, artistry, and beauty embedded in its bones. Our approach was rooted in preserving that integrity while imagining how the Vanderbilts might live and entertain here today.
The lighting, art, and interior architecture draw from the era in which the Mansion was built, while the custom furniture, layouts, and functionality were designed for how the space is used now. The goal was never to create a period room, but to capture the spirit of that world — its intimacy, elegance, luxury, and sense of occasion.
When I design, I often begin by imagining the world a space belongs to. Here, I kept returning to the Vanderbilts’ history of entertaining, travel, European influence, and hospitality — rooms filled with stories, objects gathered over time, long dinners, drinks at the bar, and quiet conversation. I wanted stepping into this space to feel transportive: a departure from the pace of modern life into something more intimate, romantic, and connected.
We introduced a historic gesso, wax, and gilding treatment to the walls, layered over a rich warm brown by Farrow & Ball. Custom ceiling plasterwork was inspired by nearby Vizcaya, and every piece of furniture was designed by us specifically for the room. Burnt strawberry, rust, and caramel bring warmth and depth throughout, and the lighting and artwork were sourced to feel as though they had been collected by the family over generations.
For me, that is the most exciting part of hospitality design: creating a fully imagined world around how people will gather, linger, connect, and remember a space.
I can’t wait to reveal the finished project. For now, a glimpse into the process — and a few iPhone photos that will have to do.

This was such a fun, transformational project overlooking the Hollywood Reservoir.
After years of varied renovations, the home was calling for a sense of cohesion—inside and out. We reimagined the interiors, exterior facade, and landscape to create a home that felt more connected, intentional, and true to its incredible setting.
With an open-plan living space and some of the most killer views in Los Angeles, we wanted the interiors to have a sense of lightness and serenity while still feeling layered, visually interesting, and full of personality—without ever competing with the view.
Take a peek at the transformation, and see more of the project on our website [link in bio].

Organized around a circular axis to create a more intuitive flow, the furniture arrangement sits atop a custom amoeba-shaped rug by woven. We intentionally kept the palette quiet and restrained, allowing the space to recede and those incredible views to take center stage.

I’ve been dying to share this one.
A little glimpse of a recently completed 1920s Spanish home in Silver Lake. We wanted it to feel collected rather than designed—layered, soulful, slightly unexpected, yet completely at home in its classic spanish architecture.
There are so many fun moments—like the hand-painted ceiling mural I created, rooted in sacred geometry and intended to bring another layer of meaning and energy into the space. More on that soon..
I can’t show you the whole thing just yet, but I couldn’t not show you something - so here are a few shots. More soon. xxT
