Shannon provided all the best ideas for our kitchen, from color to spatial relations to fixtures. Lucky us! He helped create something bold, with a lovely near-traditional (but energized) palette.

Shannon helped with our kitchen design and furnishing of our entire house - beginning from the early construction phrase. He has an incredible eye for putting things together, and at the same time letting your style come through (some designers try to talk you out of your style and into theirs!) Shannon helps you think outside the box, while maintaining the integrity of the look you're going for. His kindness and sense of humor are a total bonus to his talents! After 18 months of the building process, and now 6 years later, I wouldn't change a thing and he's still one of my favorite people! That in itself says it all!

Shannon is extremely personable, and he has a very keen eye. He sees nuances in color and form that most mortals cannot perceive. Despite his talents, he couldn't be nicer or more down to earth. He has helped me decorate and design three homes in five years. During my most recent project, a whole house renovation, he served as my guide, confidant, and advocate. He expects perfection from his own vendors and high quality work from other professionals working on a project. When my contractor ordered the wrong floors for my great room, he stood by my side during every meeting and insisted upon the design and practical implications of the error until the mistake was fixed. When I found a picture on Houzz at 11 pm that I loved, he took my call, opened his laptop and discussed how we could implement the ideas I liked within my constraints. Shannon has always been very respectful of my budget for each project. While on he was on vacation recently, he found furniture for my son's playroom at TJ Maxx at a deep discount relative to similar products on stores and online. He's just as willing to suggest an item from Restoration Hardware as he is a piece from one of his own vendors. While I have a more transitional style, I've seen him create beautiful traditional kitchens just as effortlessly as stunning modern bathrooms. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe Shannon. I feel so fortunate to have found him!

Shannon knows how to transform a room. He can work with a blank canvas and turn into a masterpiece. Great style... Shannon will take a piece you love and make it the focal point of your room and design the rest of the room around it. Very easy to work with and great listener to what you are dreaming your home to be.
