If you are still deciding about The Case Conference, this one is for you.

I know the math you are running right now. Three days out of the studio, at the top of Q4, with clients waiting and a install calendar that does not care about your personal development. I ran that same math last year.

Here is what I did not put in the equation: the conversations that changed how I lead my team, what I let go of that only I was supposed to do, and what a studio actually looks like once it stops running through me alone. None of that came off a slide. It came from the room.

October 1 through 3 in Atlanta. If you have been circling this one for weeks, stop circling.

Registration link in my bio. Come find me.

A small glimpse into my day. Walked Phase 2 of Timeless Japandi with the GC, reviewed the lighting plan and scope. Then it was back to the office to design and source for another project. This is the job! Then a stop at the grocery store and a few other errands. This is the mom! šŸ˜‚

Good furniture is one thing. A vendor who actually shows up for you is another. was my very first trade vendor when I started this studio, and years later, they’re still who I call for every single project. Quick to respond, easy to reach, and clearly built for designers who don’t have time to wait around on an answer. The swivel chairs, the solid wood desk, and the brass side table in this space all came through them, and every order has been smooth from quote to delivery, just like it was on day one. Swipe to see the pieces that made it into the room.

Who doesn’t love a good Before & After!

This one still makes me smile every time I scroll past it. ā€œThe Confident Editā€ came together with so much intention, and I’m so proud of how it turned out.

The Spruce reached out and asked me what actually makes a kitchen timeless.

I’m sharing a few of the things I told them. Read the full article at the link in my bio for everything that made the list.

What is the one thing in your kitchen you would never change? Drop it in the comments.

Someone on Threads asked how do you store jeans and I shared my system. Next thing I knew the post had over 10K views, so I thought I’d share here as well.

I use gold shower hooks and hang them by the belt loop. Dark to light, left to right. Typically there isn’t tension on the belt loop but if there is, I fold the jeans and double the loop.

I installed this closet in 2024 and it has been working great. I still love the gold pipe system. When I can see everything at a glance it makes getting dressed so much easier.

What is your system? Drop it below.

An invite from at and an evening inside . Yes and yes.
Watching J Schatz and walk us through their full process, from the color studies on the worktable to the kiln, was the kind of behind-the-scenes moment you don’t forget. This is Detroit-made design at its finest and I am proud to be in a city that produces work like this. Thanks to for a discussion.

Grateful for the connection. Love the Detroit Design community.

And no I didn’t plan to match the studio, it just happened. I literally changed what I was wearing as I walked out the door! Cool coincidence šŸ§”šŸ©µšŸ’š

One hundred years of history in a single arch!

This arch stopped me the first time I walked through. One hundred years old, original to the home, and it immediately set the tone for everything we were about to do. This home has several arches, each one a reminder of the history, design and architecture of that time and of Detroit.

I wonder who lived here then? I also wonder who will live here now?

That is how this project got its name. Arch History.

Arches are having a moment right now, but this one never needed one. It has been here the whole time. Our job was to make sure it stays.
