Minimalist is the wife's style, and color is the husband's style. K Two Designs incorporated both with a neutral background, punched with an accent wall and watercolor pillows. Texture played an important role with contrast in the Mongolian lamb bench, suede ottoman and cowhide rug.

This model’s purity and restraint shows the skill of the design team. The Theseus is a harmonious creation that delivers a graceful, beautifully balanced design and a rare sense of scale.

This vibrant corner of the Beach Bungalow Guest Room balances play and art with ease. The peach-colored wall becomes a gallery for a thoughtfully arranged collage of kids' artwork, nature prints, and whimsical drawings. Below, a foldable wooden table adds versatility, while a colorful game rug grounds the space in fun. The surf-themed wallpaper peeking around the corner ties the room together with a playful coastal vibe.

This renovated basement is a moody, elevated entertaining space designed for gathering, unwinding, and lingering a little longer. A rich black paneled wall sets a dramatic backdrop, balanced by light wood floors, warm neutral upholstery, and sculptural brass accents that add a subtle glow. The mix of tailored furnishings and organic elements creates a refined yet relaxed atmosphere—equally suited for bourbon tastings, game nights, or shooting pool in the billiards room. Thoughtful lighting and bold artwork bring depth and personality, while the open layout allows the space to flow effortlessly from bar to game table to lounge. The result is a sophisticated retreat that feels intimate, inviting, and unmistakably cool.

In this refined yet playful home for a family of six, every room invites connection, creativity, and daily living, with thoughtfully integrated spaces for building, gathering, and everyday living. In this space, tailored cabinetry showcases curated Lego collections, balanced by sculptural lighting and a vibrant, graphic rug. Clean-lined furnishings and soft neutrals create a refined backdrop for creativity.

When our client came to us, she was stumped with how to turn her small living room into a cozy, useable family room. The living room and dining room blended together in a long and skinny open concept floor plan. It was difficult for our client to find furniture that fit the space well. It also left an awkward space between the living and dining areas that she didn’t know what to do with. She also needed help reimagining her office, which is situated right off the entry. She needed an eye-catching yet functional space to work from home. In the living room, we reimagined the fireplace surround and added built-ins so she and her family could store their large record collection, games, and books. We did a custom sofa to ensure it fits the space and maximized the seating. We added texture and pattern through accessories and balanced the sofa with two warm leather chairs. We updated the dining room furniture and added a little seating area to help connect the spaces. Now there is a permanent home for their record player and a cozy spot to curl up in when listening to music. For the office, we decided to add a pop of color, so it contrasted well with the neutral living space. The office also needed built-ins for our client’s large cookbook collection and a desk where she and her sons could rotate between work, homework, and computer games. We decided to add a bench seat to maximize space below the window and a lounge chair for additional seating.

With 11 1/2' ceiling height using the vertical space of this room was one of the keys to its comfort. The custom draperies framing the window carry your eye upward to the beautiful original crown moldings. The traditional design of the hand-painted leather wall hanging over the fireplace is balanced by the contemporary vases on the mantle. And a bit of subtle whimsy is echoed in the ghost chairs at the game table.
