Conceived as a remodel and addition, the final design iteration for this home is uniquely multifaceted. Structural considerations required a more extensive tear down, however the clients wanted the entire remodel design kept intact, essentially recreating much of the existing home. The overall floor plan design centers on maximizing the views, while extensive glazing is carefully placed to frame and enhance them. The residence opens up to the outdoor living and views from multiple spaces and visually connects interior spaces in the inner court. The client, who also specializes in residential interiors, had a vision of ‘transitional’ style for the home, marrying clean and contemporary elements with touches of antique charm. Energy efficient materials along with reclaimed architectural wood details were seamlessly integrated, adding sustainable design elements to this transitional design. The architect and client collaboration strived to achieve modern, clean spaces playfully interjecting rustic elements throughout the home.

The wallcovering is comprised of wood pulp from sustainably managed forests. It has a double layer, featuring a top layer that is laser cut to reveal hints of metallic foil below, which adds a flickering glimmer to the space, like an explosion of stars in the night.
The natural selenite art is such a stunner, providing a subtle glimmer as it catches the light from different angles.


This 1500 SF house in the Catskill Mountains is positioned on a gentle slope of rolling farmland and opens to sweeping views of the steep and thickly forested surrounding hillsides. The building uses subtle reinterpretations of vernacular vocabulary to emphasize and participate in the iconic and arcadian beauty of the local context. An intersection of two simple masses with matching pitched roofs is nestled into the hillside, creating a sheltered area between them as it embraces the valley beyond.
The most resonant elements of local built vocabulary–timber frames, natural wood sided forms, and field stone masses–are set against simple interior finishes to underscore the beauty and craftsmanship of the construction techniques and to allow light and space to be focal. A loft and a master bedroom suite give way to a dramatic main volume and hearth generating a feeling of expansiveness within an otherwise efficient and lean program.
Time-tested sustainable techniques of solar orientation, natural ventilation, and extensive use of local materials are teamed with newer technologies: SIP construction, radiant heating, high-efficiency appliances and lighting to achieve substantial reductions of the building’s carbon footprint. The house easily achieved Level II Energy Star Certification and scored high in LEED analysis.


Explore the elegance of this Architectural Digest-featured bathroom in a Nashville home, thoughtfully designed by award-winning designers Lauren Bradshaw and Sarah Sherman Samuel. Centered around the Ascension line freestanding natural copper clawfoot bathtub from Re's Parish Collection, inspired by the picturesque landscapes of Louisiana, this bathroom is a testament to luxury and design excellence. The bathtub is paired with high-end Delta Victorian brass tub fixtures, enhancing its allure.
Adjacent to the tub, the space features a sophisticated Kingston brass vanity sink atop a Mason porcelain console, contributing to the room's refined contemporary aesthetic. Enhancing the functionality and style, custom recessed cabinetry is seamlessly integrated into the walls, providing streamlined storage solutions without compromising the sleek design.
The flooring and baseboards are adorned with custom sheet tiles from Fire Clay Tile, specifically the Akoya and Halite designs, which bring an artisanal and eco-conscious touch to the space. These tiles not only add a layer of luxury but also resonate with the room's modern and artistic vibe. The walls and ceiling boast a unique faux finish paint application, complementing the custom tile work and adding depth to the room's overall ambiance.
This bathroom renovation showcases the harmonious blend of modern luxury and sustainable design, making it a highlight of Nashville's residential architecture and a distinguished project on Houzz.

Stunning in both their towering appearance and low resonant tones, the Contrabass Chimes provide a outdoor music experience through powerful sounds that are both heard and felt.
There are seven chimes available, ranging from seven to nine feet tall. The taller the chime, the deeper the tone it emits. Each is made with four-inch diameter, heavy duty anodized aluminum tubes. They are pitched one octave below middle C to create a deep note that sustains long after the fundamental sound has ceased.
We find these instruments are best as an ensemble installed in a horseshoe shape to allow a surround-sound effect. Perfect in healing gardens, or as a sound sculpture. Contrabass Chimes are also sold individually. Each instrument is supplied with two durable mallets attached with coated steel cables. Just like all Freenotes Harmony Park instruments, the Contrabass Chimes and mallets are designed to withstand the outdoor elements.
Please note the photos of our instruments may show slight variations of components. Some are custom made for specific clients. Not all styles are available in all countries. Please contact us if you have questions about availability.

ARCHITECTURE: Honor Award
PROJECT: Leunter Commons
CLIENT: Case Western Reserve University
ARCHITECTURE FIRM: Stantec
CONTRACTOR: Krill Co., Inc.
ENGINEERS: Thorson Baker & Associates, Inc.; Karpinski Engineering, Inc.
PHOTOGRAPHER: Jason Meyer of Feinkkopf Photography
DESCRIPTION: Originally designed in 1963, Leunter Commons exemplified mid-century modern architecture. While the building had undergone updates over the decades, there were many factors that necessitated a renovation. These challenges were addressed while acknowledging the original building’s architecture and context. The new construction was designed as an extension, rather than an addition, by maintaining the original material palette, rhythm, proportions, sightlines, and the expression of horizontality of the existing building.
JURY COMMENTS: This project is simple and self-confident, commensurate with the existing building. The enhancements are function driven influenced by the architecture of the building. The solution shows great restraint and did not overreach. The project is transformational while positively engaging its campus context. There is a very nice resonance between the building and the program.

In the world of high-end interior design, luxury is no longer simply defined by opulence or grandeur. True luxury is increasingly characterized by personalization—the ability to tailor a space to the unique tastes, preferences, and lifestyles of its inhabitants. At KKD Studio, we believe that personalized luxury interiors transcend mere aesthetics; they represent a deeper connection between the individual and the space they occupy. This article explores the significance of personalization in luxury interiors and how KKD Studio approaches the art of creating bespoke living environments.
Redefining Luxury through Personalization
Traditionally, luxury interiors were often associated with extravagant materials, large-scale furnishings, and the latest trends. While these elements still play a role in high-end design, today’s discerning homeowners seek something more meaningful: a space that is a reflection of their identity, values, and lifestyle. Personalization goes beyond selecting furnishings and décor—it involves designing an environment that feels authentic, comfortable, and perfectly aligned with the individual’s personal narrative.
At KKD Studio, we view luxury as a deeply personal experience. We understand that a truly luxurious space must speak to the desires and aspirations of those who live within it. Our approach to personalization is rooted in the belief that every design choice, from the layout to the color palette, should resonate with the unique sensibilities of our clients.
Understanding the Client's Vision
The first step in the art of personalization is understanding the client’s vision. At KKD Studio, we engage in an in-depth consultation process to explore the personal preferences, lifestyle, and cultural influences of each client. This collaboration forms the foundation of the design, ensuring that every element of the space reflects the homeowner’s personality and aspirations.
We take the time to listen carefully to our clients’ needs—whether it’s a passion for modern art, a love for traditional craftsmanship, or a desire for sustainability in the design process. By delving into the details of their lives, we are able to craft interiors that are not only visually stunning but also meaningful and functional. Personalization, in this sense, is a creative exploration of the client's story, interests, and values.
Customization: The Heart of Personalization
Customization is at the core of personalized luxury design. While many luxury designs may incorporate high-end furniture and materials, at KKD Studio, we believe that true luxury is found in bespoke elements that are specifically crafted for the space and the client. Customization can manifest in various ways, from creating one-of-a-kind furniture pieces to selecting unique materials that reflect the client's aesthetic and functional needs.
Each design decision we make is guided by the desire to create a space that feels distinctly personal. Whether we are designing a custom-built bookshelf, selecting rare textiles for upholstery, or incorporating unique art pieces, the goal is always to enhance the individuality of the space. Our team works closely with skilled artisans and craftsmen to bring these bespoke designs to life, ensuring that each piece is tailored to perfection.
Blending Functionality with Aesthetics
While personalization in luxury interiors often emphasizes aesthetics, it is equally important to prioritize functionality. A personalized space should not only be beautiful but also practical, designed to support the everyday needs of its inhabitants. At KKD Studio, we understand that luxury is about creating a harmonious balance between form and function.
Whether it’s designing a home office that fosters productivity, a living room that encourages relaxation, or a kitchen that combines state-of-the-art technology with a warm, inviting atmosphere, we ensure that every personalized design serves a purpose. We work with our clients to understand how they live and interact with their space, ensuring that the final design supports their lifestyle while maintaining an elegant and cohesive look.
Creating Emotional Connections through Design
At its core, personalization in luxury interiors is about creating spaces that resonate emotionally with the homeowner. A well-designed, personalized space has the power to evoke feelings of comfort, joy, and belonging. At KKD Studio, we recognize the importance of this emotional connection and strive to craft environments that make our clients feel truly at home.
From the selection of materials to the placement of art, every design decision is made with the intention of creating a space that feels welcoming and reflective of the client’s identity. Personal touches—such as family heirlooms, custom-designed furniture, or carefully curated art collections—further enhance the emotional connection, making the space feel deeply personal and uniquely theirs.
At KKD Studio, we believe that the art of personalization is what truly defines luxury interiors. By deeply understanding the needs and desires of our clients, we create bespoke environments that are not only visually stunning but also meaningful, functional, and deeply connected to the individual’s personal narrative. As we continue to embrace innovation and craftsmanship, personalization remains at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that each luxury space we design is a true reflection of the people who live within it.


We specialize in creating adaptable and culturally rich interiors for children transitioning from early childhood to adolescence. Our process begins with thorough client consultations to understand preferences and budget constraints. We utilize peelable wallpaper for vibrant, easy-to-change designs and encourage using existing furniture with simple modifications to maintain cost-effectiveness. Our approach incorporates bold colors and themes that resonate with the child's identity and interests. By focusing on sustainability and personalization, we create engaging spaces that inspire creativity and growth while remaining budget-friendly.

The journey to creating Promise Lane was marked by a commitment to detail and excellence, epitomized by the design of the home's entrance. This wasn't just any entrance; it was conceived as a covered balcony, a welcoming embrace to all who approached, characterized by a special timber frame beam that spoke volumes of the project's architectural integrity and aesthetic ambition. This design choice was not merely functional; it was symbolic, representing a gateway to innovation and sustainable living.
The special timber frame beam, chosen for its robustness and visual appeal, became the cornerstone of this unique entrance. It supported not just the physical structure of the covered balcony but also the philosophical foundation of the entire project. The careful selection of timber, known for its durability and beauty, reflected a deeper appreciation for natural materials and a commitment to utilizing resources that complement the environment rather than detract from it.
Beyond the beam, every part of the entrance was meticulously planned and executed. The attention to detail was paramount, from the selection of joinery that would ensure longevity and resist the elements, to the precise angles of the balcony that maximized the view while providing shelter and comfort. This entrance was designed to be more than a mere threshold; it was an invitation to a space where design and nature coalesce, where every detail contributes to a harmonious whole.
The covered balcony, with its timber frame, serves as a serene lookout and a symbol of the home’s open-armed welcome. It’s a space that invites reflection, offering views of the surrounding landscape while standing as a testament to the craftsmanship and vision that define the Promise Lane project. Here, the fusion of traditional materials with modern design principles creates a timeless aesthetic that resonates with the values of sustainability and innovation that Happy Healthy Home holds dear.
As the family who now resides in this house steps onto the covered balcony, they are enveloped in the craftsmanship and thoughtfulness that the entrance embodies. This space, with its special timber frame beam and attention to every detail, is more than an architectural feature; it is a manifestation of the care, creativity, and commitment that went into creating a home that is truly a haven, promising a future where design, sustainability, and beauty are in perfect harmony.


The primary bedroom color scheme combines Gardenia walls with deep black-green trim to create a nature-inspired retreat that connects with the serene surrounding environment. The dusty rose tones of the linen bedding, cotton blanket, and wool curtains draw from flowers in the lush garden outside, such as the California Wildrose, to create a cozy, inviting environment that resonates with the warmth of wood furniture throughout the room. The grey upholstered bed and floor rug made from wool and jute help ground this colorful bedroom palette within soft, earthy tones. A cloud-like glass light fixture fills the room with soft, diffused lighting, and a pair of pink Roly Poly chairs can be seen in the garden through the glass sliding doors, creating a playful color connection between the inside and outside.
