Planning a bathroom renovation? Think through these before you demo anything.

🔧 LAYOUT & PLUMBING
✨Keep plumbing in place if possible. Moving pipes = major $$$
✨Double vanity if the space allows (hello, resale value)

💡 LIGHTING & VENTILATION
✨Layer your lighting — vanity lights at face level, not overhead
✨A good exhaust fan is non-negotiable. Moisture is the enemy.

🛁 TUB VS. SHOWER
✨Do you actually take baths? If not, a walk-in shower wins
✨Keep at least one tub in the house for resale

🪨 MATERIALS
✨ Large format tiles make small bathrooms feel bigger
✨Stick to one or two metals throughout, cohesion is everything
✨Heated floors are more affordable than you think

🗄️ STORAGE
✨Recessed shower niches, medicine cabinets, floating vanities
✨Plan storage before you finalize your layout

💰 BUDGET
✨ Add a 15–20% buffer. Surprises will happen.
✨Never cut corners on waterproofing. Ever.

A well-planned bathroom is one of the best investments you can make in your home.

✨Design is more than aesthetics, it’s a commitment✨

I believe in showing up for my clients at every stage of the process, from initial concept to final ex*****on. There will always be elements outside any designer’s control, but what I can control, I take full ownership of and I hold myself to the highest standard in doing so.

✨Do’s and Dont’s of color drenching✨

DO:
• Choose mid-to-deep tones for impact
• Test the color in different lighting
• Commit fully, half-done looks accidental
• Use varied textures (matte walls, satin trim)

DON’T:
• Mix undertones
• Ignore natural light
• Add busy contrasting décor
• Forget about ceiling height

The magic is in the commitment.
Save this before your next paint decision.

✨Sometimes you have to be the bearer of bad news✨

Major changes can significantly affect a project’s budget and schedule. It is essential to be transparent and communicate these impacts clearly so the client can make informed decisions. Modifications to plumbing, electrical, or gas lines, in particular, can have a substantial influence on both the overall cost and the project timeline.

✨Getting Hands-On as an Interior Designer✨

No matter the scale of a project, I take a highly hands-on approach to my work. This often means stepping in to paint, build furniture, or assist with installing wall features when needed. I value being involved throughout the entire process—from concept to completion—ensuring every detail is executed with care. So if you see me with paint on my clothes, rest assured, I’m exactly where I’m meant to be.
