Hey lovebirds. Can you believe it’s already February? It’s the month of love and we…

Renovation diaries:
I haven’t really touched this room yet... aside from moving furniture around and mentally claiming it as my office. I started painting it today and now I’m wondering why I waited so long.

French Gray by @farrowandball has that quiet, old-world softness I keep coming back to. It doesn’t feel trendy or precious... just really livable.

When you work from home, the way a room feels matters more than you think. Still a long way to go (lighting, furniture, layers) but this felt like the right first step.
Save this if you’re thinking about green and want something that is timeless.

Tip- I actually color matched the color for this room- but I do recommend splurging on the real deal when it’s going in a space that will get a lot of wear and tear - like a kitchen, dining room, kids space, etc.

A renovation is rarely undone by a lack of inspiration.
It’s undone by a lack of clarity.

Because the reality is this: building or remodeling a home requires hundreds of decision, many of them invisible, all of them connected. The materials, the proportions, the lighting, the flow, the sequencing. The details that don’t feel urgent until they are the only thing you can see.

And while hiring a designer can feel like a significant investment, what you’re truly purchasing is certainty.

The assurance that every choice has been thoughtfully considered.
That the vision is protected.
That the entire home will come together cohesively. Beautifully executed, down to the smallest detail.

Because the real expense isn’t the design fee.

It’s completing your renovation and realizing it doesn’t feel the way you hoped it would.

If you’re planning a remodel or new build and want it done with intention from the start, we’d love to work with you!

We’re big fans of the IKEA PAX system! And if you’ve been following for a while, you might recognize it from the High Desert Tumalo Ranch, our last home.

We originally used these wardrobes as closet overflow in our bedroom and primary closet, and they worked so well that we’re bringing the same idea into our upstairs bathroom at Sixth Street Bungalow. With limited storage in the adjoining guest rooms, this felt like the smartest, most functional (and let’s not forget affordable) solution.

The key is making it feel intentional. We always add trim and base molding for a built-in look, upgrade the hardware, and paint them so they feel custom. In Tumalo, we even used curtain panels for a softer, layered feel.

It’s proof that good design isn’t about reinventing the wheel but about using the right tools, the right way.

Save this if you’re short on storage but want it to look beautiful.

If you need an excuse to gather your favorite women... this is it. I’ll take a night with the girls over just about anything💕

A good cocktail, a few pretty details, something fun to wear, and the kind of night that turns into a core memory.

Sharing what I’d serve, wear, and set out for hosting (or just romanticizing the idea). Hint- you’ll never believe where I found the red/white plates- a staple, but so cute this time of year. Save this one for now and later.

If you want the links, DM me and I’ll send you the details.

The February Edit- The Softness Edition
This month, I’ve been leaning into softness... anything that makes winter feel less heavy.

Not big moments... just the everyday kind of romance:
What I’m wearing, watching, listening to, and surrounding myself with to beat the winter blues.

In this month’s Edit I’m sharing:
- my newest fashion accessory obsession that I think makes an outfit
- a timeless material that I’m seeing EVERYWHERE in fashion and home design
- what I can’t stop telling friends to watch and read
- a daily ritual to beat dull winter skin

Everything is linked in LTK, with the full roundup on the blog.

Possible? Sure.
Recommended? ...not so much.😅

A kitchen renovation isn’t just cabinets and tile. It’s hundreds of decisions stacked on top of each other.
Even in this phase alone, I can easily count 60+ choices we’ve guided our clients through: layout, lighting, functionality, finishes, details you don’t think about until it’s too late.

That’s the difference between a kitchen that’s pretty... and one that truly works beautifully for the way you live.

Our experience helps you avoid expensive “oops” moments and get it right the first time.

And don’t worry, this is just the beginning. The reveal is coming soon, so stay tuned

If you’re planning a kitchen (or already overwhelmed), explore our design services — we’d love to help.
