WESTMINSTER
Our client traveled frequently for work and longed for a place that truly felt like home.
She envisioned a space filled with color, texture, and meaning—where every element reflected comfort and joy, and the pieces she had collected and inherited over the years could finally take center stage.
Together with her husband, she wanted to transform their outdated, dysfunctional kitchen into a room that made cooking and entertaining a pleasure—something welcoming and personal, not just practical.
Not every remodel requires removing walls or reimagining the entire floor plan. For the Westminster project, our clients wanted to enhance functionality and aesthetics while keeping their existing footprint, avoiding major plumbing changes or new flooring throughout the home.
With a bit of creative reconfiguration, our design team transformed their angled peninsula into a straight layout that functions more like an island—offering generous counter space and seating without disrupting the flow of the room.
Custom cabinetry gave purpose to every door and drawer, while softly curved open shelving created a place to display the kitchen essentials and treasures our client loves most. The result is a kitchen that feels intentional, inviting, and unmistakably personal—a space that welcomes her home after every trip
Cohesive design is the key to a successful renovation.
The goal for the living room was to create a space that complemented the kitchen while still feeling distinct—a cozy, inviting “dessert” after time spent in the heart of the home.
We carried the kitchen’s rich blues into the living room, using them as a grounding neutral to build upon when selecting furnishings. Natural wood details were repeated to bring warmth and continuity, while layered textures in cream, deep navy, and slate blue accented the cabinetry beautifully and allowed the rug to take center stage as the true showpiece of the space.
Feminine touches, soft colors, and subtle brass accents completed the room, giving it a moody, intimate atmosphere that invites you to linger, unwind, and enjoy a glass of wine with your favorite people.

Before the renovation, our client referred to her laundry room and pool bath as her “sad rooms.” Both spaces had so much potential—they just needed a little love and a lot of color.
In the laundry room, a bold patterned tile became the centerpiece, bringing the outdoors in and transforming a once utilitarian space into one that’s genuinely enjoyable to spend time in. Sage green walls and calming taupe cabinetry created a soft, grounding backdrop, while whimsical dragonfly knobs added a touch of personality and charm. The finishing touch? The perfect chandelier, proof that even the most functional spaces deserve a little beauty and joy.
The pool bath received an equally thoughtful refresh. Soft blue tiles were laid in a unique pattern to give a simple material something extra, paired with river rock terrazzo floors that evoke a serene, natural feel. Warm wood accents add organic texture, while brass details introduce just the right amount of shine. The result is a soothing retreat that feels both fresh and quietly luxurious.
