Jungalow vibes mixed with 'The Jens Bench' + a vintage Moroccan rug + a few pops from Portland's beloved . PS. There's no way I could keep all these plants alive in my own home.

Layering in vintage makes everything better. 🤎🙌🏼 We love incorporating family heirlooms and sourcing unique vintage pieces to complete our designs. Vintage brings that extra layer of uniqueness; each piece always has a good story worth sharing...and worth asking about.

It's clear the vibe of this home in just a few snaps, which was precisely the goal. 💃🏻 This young family of 5 wanted their traditional home to feel fresh, funky and uniquely California-cool. 🙌🏼🤍🍾

Our design philosophy is function first, aesthetics second. 🤍This kitchen is a balancing act of design meeting function. 👌🏼🤓😎
✔️ The work-station sink pairs with an un-lacquered brass statement faucet.
✔️Marble is utilized as a stunning backsplash, with simple quartz on the counters for maximum durability.
✔️Floating shelves are paired with hyper-organized kitchen cabinets (utensil drawer!).
✔️The marble spice shelf is both functional and creates a beautiful design moment.
✔️ A vintage rug for their inherent durability and for that little moment of charm.

Monday motivation inspo ✨💥⚡️ Creative chaos, but my desk is perfectly clean at the end of every day. 🤓 Finding inspiration from my Portland office, while I’m on the hunt for a new creative studio space in Greenwich. 💫✨

Entering the last few months of the year, and 9 months into our family’s cross-country move, here’s what I know: There’s no growth in your comfort zone. 🌱
There’s no comfort in your growth zone. 💥
Each quarter, I take a moment for personal and business review; to pause, evaluate, pivot and celebrate.
Risk 👉🏼 Opportunity 👉🏼 Clarity = Growth
Risk 👉🏼 ‘Failure’ 👉🏼 Clarity = Growth.
Both routes are good. Both routes are hard. 🍾🍾🍾

study time ✏️ 🍎 🤓 It's always a balance designing kids space's when they change so quickly (🥹😭). Investing in timeless, well-made pieces that can grow with them is a top priority in our designs.

✏️ back-to-school vibes, post summer-vibes 💦 We designed this XL mudroom as a multi-functional space. It's a drop-zone entrance from the garage with a hidden coat closet, and backyard access from the pool. 🙌🏼
Patterned cement tile is a pop-o-fun AND super durable. ✌🏼✌🏼

welcoming our new routine and a new season 👋🏼💥we whooped it up together this summer in Greenwich. Our afternoons were filled with the beach, pool and summer vibes. 💦 ☀️ 🍉
As an entrepreneur, the ability to have this choice of *time* is something I have strived for in my work-life balance. Did it mean late nights, juggling schedules and working during nap times? Yes. But, this is a season I want to be present for.
Welcoming a more structured routine, embracing the change and feeling grateful for the past season.

A cozy spot next to the kitchen for the kids or guests to hang while someone else makes dinner (it’s me...you don’t want me cooking, but I’m great at serving drinks 😝).

5 YEARS in BIZ💥✨ 👏🏼🥹 5 years ago I quit my corporate job for my 30th birthday to leap into the world of entrepreneurship and back to my roots of interior design. 🙌🏼💥
What’s my biggest reflection on the journey over the last 5 years?
Being present for *life* is my biggest success. For creating a business with boundaries that fuels my passions AND my life.
Through the birth of our baby, to my mother’s eventual terminal diagnosis and her last three years with us, to moving across the country with my family in pursuit of adventure + opportunity…I’ve chosen “YES” to showing up for myself, my people and my clients.
“Big” projects, press, photo shoots and revenue goals are fulfilling (and not achieving these is always a learning); but, nothing beats going to sleep knowing I’ve been able to put in my all, in all areas of my life.

Cozy + play ⚡️🤍 We intentionally designed a reading nook as part of this staircase leading to the newly added family bonus room. An otherwise unused space turned play + pretty!

sofa jumping & kiddo artwork encouraged. ⚡️💥
A space with soft edges, durable materials & room to roam make this family room welcoming and functional, without compromising style.
We believe in the age old saying “don’t save anything for a special occasion, every day is a special occasion.” In other words, don’t wait until the kids are older to make your home what you dream it do be. Find the balance for your current season of life. ✨⚡️👊🏼

Welcome to this traditional-meets-funky home for a young family hailing from SoCal, based in Oregon.
A Newport Beach statement art piece was a no-brainer for setting the tone of this home upon entry. 🌊 👋🏼 ☀️

School vibes ✏️ ➡️ Pool Vibes 💦 This large multi-use space needed to function as a drop-zone for everyday use, as a pool drop-zone, and as guest access to the bathroom. ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
We designed an open slat wall to provide division between the mudroom and pool room to designate these areas while keeping the space feeling open and light-flooded. We incorporated a bench for the daily shoe on/off spot and ample adjacent storage for just about everything else.

Sometimes I find standard swinging doors can create a cumbersome experience - in other words, sometimes they're annoying. 🫣🤭
For easier flow and less opening/closing of a door that mostly stays open, we designed a slider door between this primary bedroom and primary bathroom + closet en-suite.
Door is custom and hand-made by of knotty alder.
