When I first decided to strike out on my own seven years ago, I wasn’t naïve about the fact that I still had a lot to learn about the world of design. After all, it’s sort of an ever-changing beast by default. Styles and tastes change. Trends come and go (and often come back again). Technology advances. In this industry you quickly learn to be comfortable with feeling like there’s always something new to learn. But that’s part of what keeps things interesting!

With it’s mostly neutral palette and simple silhouettes, the Contemporary Casual style is easy to blend alongside a variety of other décor styles throughout your home. While there’s plenty of room to play with pattern and color alongside these pieces, we think they work wonderfully alongside highly textured natural finishes like grasscloth wallpaper, or applied wall finishes such as clay, plaster, or concrete.

With fun pieces drawing inspiration from the curved silhouettes of the 1980’s, this bedroom collection is equal parts earthy and refined, with a stylish yet liveable “modern retro” vibe.

Perfect indoors and out, on floors, ceilings, and just about everywhere in between, it’s no surprise that tile remains a highly sought-after material in both residential and commercial spaces. You simply can’t beat it when it comes to maintenance, durability, and style!

Now that the hectic holiday season has passed, I’ve recharged my batteries just enough that I’m getting the itch to clear out the cozy and lighten things up! Sound about right for you, too? To help you “spring” into the season, we’ve rounded up our of must-have décor to refresh your environment and reinvigorate your life — let’s take a peek!

Inspired by nature, evoking a sense of vitality and newness, a plethora of greens have appeared on the rosters of some of the our favorite names in paint.

We believe that good design is about so much more than fabrics, paints, furniture, and décor. It's about living well, and intentionally carving out some space for the things that bring you joy — big or small! This year, we launched a "12 Days of Design" campaign leading up to the main event in hopes that we might interrupt some the chaos of the season by bringing a little beauty and clarity to each of you.

Although we’ve still got a few new things up our sleeve to wrap things up for the year, we first wanted to take a moment to share a “best of the blog” year-in-review. To make the cut, the following six posts were either “fan favorites” that generated the most blog traffic over the last twelve months, OR were simply ones that we really enjoyed writing for you.

For many expecting families today, the biological sex of their child is often a total surprise right until the moment they arrive. As a result of this trend, we are often presented with a design brief asking us to pull together a more gender-neutral space that would work well for any new bundle of joy.

With the busy holiday entertaining season right around the corner, we thought we’d take the opportunity to write about a topic that comes up often with our clients: The best way to create a “mix-and-match” look with dining room furniture.

As an interior designer and an unabashed homebody, there’s something oddly satisfying about this time of year. We care less about chasing endless sunny days and gradually make our retreat back to the great INdoors — my happy place.

Whether our design brief requires a serene setting for a brand new bundle, or an energetic hangout for a burgeoning “big kid,” creating a child’s bedroom is always such a privilege and a joy. Can you think of a more important assignment for an interior designer?

Now that the world is starting to open back up, we’ve been getting the itch to travel again! How about you?
