Every golfer needs a place to wind down after a round. ⛳️🍻

When our clients came to us for a basement remodel, they envisioned a space built for entertaining. The existing bar, tucked away in the corner, felt cramped, dated, and wasn't making the most of the room.

By removing the curved bar, improving the layout, and introducing warm materials like a butcher block countertop and leather swivel stools, we transformed the space into a welcoming gathering spot.

Inspired by our clients' love of golf and their country club community, we christened the new bar The 19th Hole—the perfect place to relive the best shots of the day (and conveniently forget the others).

Good projects are a team effort. Good photography is too.

One thing we value deeply is working with people who care about the details as much as we do.

From builders to photographers, great projects happen when thoughtful people collaborate to make every piece feel intentional.

This new build had great bones, but like many builder-grade homes, it felt a little flat when our clients first moved in.

They loved the openness of the layout, but the home was missing the warmth and depth they wanted for their growing family — something that felt calm, elevated, and comfortable enough for everyday life.

In the living room, our focus was comfort and functionality. This is where their family will gather daily, so we layered in subtle color, texture, and furnishings that make the space feel inviting without sacrificing the neutral palette they were drawn to.

We also used larger-scale artwork to help ground an awkward window condition and create a stronger focal point, rather than filling the room with smaller pieces competing for attention.

Now it feels less like a builder-grade blank slate and more like a home designed around the people living in it.

How do we divide a basement without making it feel cramped?

That was the challenge we kept coming back to during this remodel.

The basement needed to do a lot — entertaining space, game room, and bar area all within one footprint. A completely open layout would’ve felt undefined, but adding traditional walls would have closed everything off.

So instead, we worked with what was already there.

Taking inspiration from our clients’ time living in New York City, we designed a custom metal screen wall built around the existing structural columns, with the pattern inspired by the NYC subway map.

The linework creates separation without blocking light or sightlines, helping the basement feel connected while still giving each area its own identity.

It’s one of our favorite kinds of design moments — functional, personal, and tied directly to our clients’ story.

And yes, it’s fully anchored and kid-approved for climbing. 🧗

We believe your home should feel like an extension of you, not just another design.

Sometimes that shows up in obvious ways, and sometimes it’s woven into quieter details that hold meaning for the people living there.

This nursery has a few of those subtle moments layered throughout the design. The wallpaper and framed antique sketches quietly reference the story behind our clients’ daughter’s name, creating a space that feels personal in a way that goes beyond aesthetics.

We’re big fans of thoughtful details that tell a deeper story.

Your home should tell your story, too. Head to the link in our bio to work with us.

This is one of those moments that sneaks up on your during a new build.

The porch goes in, and suddenly you’re making decisions about siding transitions and column details you didn’t know were coming.

We worked through it onsite, created a design for the client to approve, and helped tie the entire front facade together.

A lot of our job is stepping in during those unexpected decision-making moments so the project keeps moving, and the home still feels cohesive in the end.

From dark and cramped to feeling like an at-home spa 🧼🫧

With two young boys at home, our clients wanted a space that felt calm, functional, and entirely their own.

The original bathroom layout felt closed off, with very little natural light reaching the vanity and a shower that made the room feel even smaller.

Working within the existing footprint as much as possible, we opened up the space, brought in more natural light, and expanded the closet into part of the adjacent bedroom to improve how the room functions day to day.

Now the space feels brighter, more open, and much more relaxing at the end of a long day.

A good primary bathroom should make your mornings easier and your evenings feel a little calmer. This one finally does both.

This might not look like much now…

But this is where the most important decisions are being made.

We’re onsite coordinating with the contractor and electrician—walking through ceiling heights, layout shifts, and cabinetry transitions in real time.

It’s the behind-the-scenes work that keeps a project running smoothly, and makes the finished space feel intentional.

We’ll deal with this part so you don’t have to. 👷‍♀️

The parts of a design project people don’t see are usually the ones that matter most.

Everyone gets excited about install days and before/afters (fair…we do too). But so much of what makes a project successful happens long before the pretty photos.

How your kitchen actually functions on a Tuesday morning.

Where the backpacks land the second everyone walks in the door.

How materials transition from one room to the next so the home feels cohesive instead of pieced together.

Our latest newsletter issue talks about why we don’t rush the design phase.

Fast decisions can feel efficient in the moment, but we’d rather spend the time upfront thinking through the details instead of dealing with delays, change orders, and reorders later.

We’ve been loving the newsletter as a space to share more of the behind-the-scenes thinking that doesn’t always fit on social media.

If you want in on the conversations that happen beyond the finished photos, send us a DM and we’ll add you to the list ✨

This dining room started with a pretty neutral foundation, and now it’s packed with personality.

Because our clients use their breakfast nook day-to-day, we had the freedom to make the dining room feel a little moodier and more dramatic than an everyday living space.

To help it stand apart from the rest of the home’s neutral palette, we leaned into contrast with saturated blue walls and drapery, then layered in oversized artwork that nearly stretches floor to ceiling.

And the pink chairs? The perfect amount of fun.

If a dining room only gets used a handful of times a year, we think it deserves to feel a little special when people finally gather around the table.
