Example of a small transitional l-shaped medium tone wood floor and brown floor dedicated laundry room design in Houston with shaker cabinets, gray cabinets, yellow walls, a side-by-side washer/dryer, white countertops and an undermount sink

The primary suite was designed to transport the Denningtons to a place of pure relaxation, creating an oasis that feels like an endless vacation. The room’s sloped ceilings posed a unique design challenge, but these angles became a defining feature, drawing the eye upward and adding dimension to the space. We carefully selected a rich blue wallpaper—one of their favorite colors—that adds depth and a hint of luxury, grounding the room in calmness and character. Automatic shades offer an effortless touch, allowing the Denningtons to adjust light with ease, while a new lounge area provides the perfect corner to unwind and let go of the day’s stresses.

Inspiration for a large transitional master carpeted and tray ceiling bedroom remodel in San Francisco with beige walls

The Barbara Barry dressing table was an existing piece that inspired the overall design concept. Note the wallpapered ceiling detail which brings your eye upwards, creating an extra layer that is like a lid to a jewelry box.

The front entry includes geometric colored concrete paving that compliments modern architecture, plantings of drought-tolerant ornamental bunch grasses and succulents, vertical elements to draw the eye upward

The inspiration for this unique project draws on the clients’ love of Paris and the city’s vibrant romanticism and mix of architectural styles. Our challenge was to elevate builder-grade finishes in a newly-constructed townhome to create an urban retreat with aged patina for this young couple. Soft industrial elements were layered over Old-World inspired details on nearly every surface for maximum impact. We added rustic wood ceilings and industrial beams to create drama, texture, and value throughout.
A Parisian-inspired glass/iron wall divider relieves the open concept floor plan, creating a more intimate seating space. Oversized pendants of steel, blown glass, horsehair and faux horn provide soft illumination while drawing the eye upward to architectural ceiling details. Custom midnight blue built-ins create a library that frames the entry and study. The deep and dramatic color palette of paint and wallpaper that adorns the walls is a vibrant mix of cobalt, citron, teal and smoky lavender. Light pours into the rooms from the large windows, reflects off the oversized acid-wash mirror, and forms dramatic shadows on the walls, setting the mood for this home.

Designing a whole home remodel for a client’s second home was an exciting opportunity to create a space that felt both welcoming and timeless. The clients wanted a space that felt light, bright, and timeless. We focused on an open-concept layout, maximizing natural light and incorporating soft, neutral tones that complemented the desert landscape. The main showstopper of the home was the kitchen, which the family considered the heart of the home. Featuring high-end finishes, the kitchen became a space for both cooking and gathering, designed for both functionality and elegance. Thoughtful touches, such as custom cabinetry, integrated appliances, and custom hood, helped elevate the entire space, making it a true focal point. With a thoughtful blend of modern design and classic touches, the remodel was tailored to ensure the space could grow with the family and become a place they would cherish and enjoy for years to come.

We replaced the brick with a Tuscan-colored stacked stone and added a wood mantel; the television was built-in to the stacked stone and framed out for a custom look. This created an updated design scheme for the room and a focal point. We also removed an entry wall on the east side of the home, and a wet bar near the back of the living area. This had an immediate impact on the brightness of the room and allowed for more natural light and a more open, airy feel, as well as increased square footage of the space. We followed up by updating the paint color to lighten the room, while also creating a natural flow into the remaining rooms of this first-floor, open floor plan.
After removing the brick underneath the shelving units, we added a bench storage unit and closed cabinetry for storage. The back walls were finalized with a white shiplap wall treatment to brighten the space and wood shelving for accessories. On the left side of the fireplace, we added a single floating wood shelf to highlight and display the sword.
The popcorn ceiling was scraped and replaced with a cleaner look, and the wood beams were stained to match the new mantle and floating shelves. The updated ceiling and beams created another dramatic focal point in the room, drawing the eye upward, and creating an open, spacious feel to the room. The room was finalized by removing the existing ceiling fan and replacing it with a rustic, two-toned, four-light chandelier in a distressed weathered oak finish on an iron metal frame.

This custom home office was designed to inspire creativity while providing a highly functional workspace for daily productivity. Rich blue built-in cabinetry spans the entire wall, offering generous storage, open display shelving, and a striking architectural focal point that transforms the office into a destination rather than simply a place to work.
A bold Art Deco-inspired ceiling wallpaper introduces unexpected drama and personality, drawing the eye upward and creating a one-of-a-kind design statement. Warm white oak furnishings balance the saturated cabinetry, while brass hardware and carefully curated accessories add warmth, sophistication, and timeless appeal. Every shelf was intentionally styled to showcase books, artwork, collected objects, and meaningful personal pieces that reflect the homeowner's personality.
Designed to prove that workspaces can be both beautiful and functional, this office blends custom millwork, bold pattern, and thoughtful organization into a space that encourages focus, creativity, and inspiration.

A bright, colorful bunk room that sleeps 8 comfortably is a big hit with the little ones in this family. Ceiling beams were painted bright white and contrasted with the apple green paint on the ceiling. Turquoise and acid green bedding brings a color pop to this fun space.

We designed and delivered a perfectly hidden kitchen laundry and, can you believe, it adds tremendous style to this new open space Moorestown, New Jersey kitchen?! Besides figuring out what to do with the washer and dryer, the client asked for a large table island, fun green accenting, and wood details.
To truly understand the challenge we had with this project, please look at the befores first — a small space condo kitchen that had a stacked washer & dryer fully exposed. Solutions: knock out a wall to open things up to the dining room, and somehow enclose the washer and dryer. Besides now having a tremendously functional open space kitchen with an electic mix of modern and transitional that is ‘perfectly Theresa’, the laundry space now adds style. It’s amazing how the caning on the doors became a statement element!
How fun! We truly managed to hide a washer & dryer in plain sight and add beauty!
