Location

After completing a commercial office design for these clients, we were invited to create a full design plan for their forever home. The project became a highly personal whole-home remodel with a modern bohemian feel — eclectic yet restrained, light-filled, and tailored completely to the way the clients wanted to live, without designing around resale.

The renovation included an expanded kitchen with custom cabinetry, a banquette-style island, and wrapped blue appliances, along with a transformed primary suite featuring a steam shower, Japanese soaking tub, white oak details, raffia cabinetry, and river rock accents. One of the most personal spaces in the home is the former dining room, redesigned as a ballroom dance room with a custom sprung floor. The finished home feels airy, peaceful, and deeply connected to the clients’ lifestyle.
