It’s ✨ ! ✨
 
School is back in session, routines are back in full swing, and suddenly the spaces that keep a household organized are working overtime.
 
So naturally, we’re talking pantries.
 
Before the remodel, these two spaces were doing what a lot of spaces like this eventually do: holding a little bit of everything. The desk had become more of a drop zone than a workspace, and the pantry had plenty of shelving, but not necessarily the kind of storage that made it easy to keep everything organized.
 
There was good space here. We just wanted to make better use of it.
 
We replaced the open shelving with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, giving our clients a lot more concealed storage for pantry staples, small appliances, paper products and all the everyday things you need somewhere to put.
 
The old desk area got a new purpose, too. We turned it into a dry bar with custom cabinetry, glass shelving and a dark backsplash, creating a spot that feels connected to the kitchen but has a job of its own.

We didn’t add any square footage here. We just took what was already there and made it work better for the way this family actually lives.
 
Especially this time of year, when schedules get busy and keeping a house organized somehow gets a little harder, good storage goes a long way.🏡✨

If these walls could talk, we think they’d have pretty good stories to tell.
 
The living room at the was designed to feel like it had always belonged here. Just with a little more drama.
 
This 1928 home gave us plenty of character to work with, and rather than compete with it, we leaned in. A coffered ceiling draws your eye up, layers of deep color wrap the room, and the fireplace becomes the kind of focal point that makes you want to stay awhile.
 
It’s dark. It’s dramatic. It’s warm. And the closer you look, the more there is to see. 🖤🏡✨

One of the most commented-on features from is this incredible Amazonite countertop, and we can’t say we’re surprised.
 
And the story behind it is almost as good as the stone itself. Tracey wasn’t shopping for this project when she spotted the slab, but she immediately knew it belonged in this kitchen.
 
Great design often comes down to having an eye for the unexpected. She saw the depth of the jade, the warm brown veining, the movement in the stone, and immediately envisioned it alongside the rich walnut flooring.
 
Sometimes design is about searching for the perfect material. And sometimes, you see it and just know exactly where it belongs.
 
And that’s the part of the design process we don’t always get to show you. So today, we’re taking you behind the design for a little peek inside the mind of a designer and the story of how one chance find became one of the most memorable features of one of our most memorable kitchen transformations to date. 🏡✨

It’s ✨ ! ✨
 
There’s nothing quite like a kitchen transformation that makes you wonder how it was ever the same space.
 
This kitchen had plenty of square footage to work with, but the layout wasn’t making the most of it. The dual-height island broke up the room, the desk had become valuable real estate without much purpose, and the refrigerator was sitting in what had the potential to be the best focal point in the kitchen.
 
So, we moved some things around.
 
The old desk area became home to a fully integrated panel-ready refrigerator and dedicated coffee bar. Moving the refrigerator freed up the perfect spot for the range, where a stunning statement hood, full-height backsplash and sconces now create the focal point this kitchen was begging for.
 
And we couldn’t let the old two-tier island stay. In its place, we designed a much larger single-height island with tons of uninterrupted prep space, comfortable seating and open sightlines throughout the room. The furniture-style details and rich stained finish make it beautiful enough to be the centerpiece of the kitchen, while what’s happening inside might be even better.
 
This kitchen is fully loaded with thoughtful storage inserts, organization built around how our clients actually use the space, and docking drawers that keep devices charging and cords off the countertops. Because the prettiest kitchen in the world isn’t much fun if it doesn’t function well.
 
We rounded it all out with a two-tone cabinetry palette that works beautifully with the home’s existing warm wood trim. Rather than changing something that already belonged, we let it help inform the new design.
 
More storage. More prep space. Better flow. Clearer sightlines. And a whole lot more personality. 🏡✨
 
The new kitchen is bright, airy, warm, ridiculously functional, and exactly what this family needed. 🤍

At Stier Design Build, we know you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and we really took that to heart when it came to designing this space.

The foyer is the first introduction to a home, and this one tells you exactly what’s ahead.

Dark, saturated color. Black-and-white checkered floors. Tricorn Black millwork. Wrought iron. Moonstone. And plenty of drama.

We kept much of the home’s original millwork, but gave it new life with paint, a new stair runner, heavier Gothic-inspired balusters and gemstone hardware chosen especially for our geology-loving client.

It’s dark, drenched in drama, distinctly giving the , and it’s only the beginning. 🏡✨

Most homeowners think remodeling starts with demolition.

We disagree.

The best remodels start with a plan.

Our Discovery Phase is designed to help you explore what’s possible before making major decisions. We begin with a visit to your home, where we take measurements, learn how you use your space, and uncover what’s working and what isn’t.

From there, our design team develops tailored concepts paired with realistic budget guidance, so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

By the end of Discovery, you’ll have:
• A design direction you love
• A budget you trust
• A clear plan forward

Because you only remodel once. You deserve to see every option before construction begins.

It’s ✨ ! ✨

Sometimes the best remodels aren’t about replacing everything. They’re about knowing what deserves to stay.

For this primary bath, the beautiful cherry vanity and original woodwork gave us the perfect starting point. We paired those warm tones with rich green millwork, soft stone-inspired tile, warm brass fixtures, and architectural details that made the space feel collected and intentional.

The oversized tub surround was replaced with a freestanding tub, the shower was reimagined with a larger footprint and built-in details, and the entire room was redesigned around how our clients actually live.

A timeless refresh that feels like it was always meant to be here. 🏡🛁🤍

Kinda chic to have a home that just gets you. ✨

A drop zone where everything actually has a place. A coffee station that makes mornings better. A butler’s pantry ready for hosting. A shower built for two. An island big enough for everyone to gather around.

The best remodels aren’t just about making your home prettier. They’re about making everyday life feel a little easier, a little more special, and a lot more you. 🏡✨

What would be on your wishlist? 👀
