Design Philosophy
Designing spaces that are reflective of how they’re used, without sacrificing style for function. Our goal? A home with longevity and personality that mixes pieces with classic lines and contemporary accents and patterns.
Inspirations:
Other designers — between Instagram, blogs, and magazines, we must look at hundreds of beautiful designs every day. Also, the D&D building to source inspiration from textiles. Sometimes one fabric can be the basis for the design of an entire home.
Hottest Trends
Wallpaper and vinyl paper
Floral patterns — small or large and on wallpaper or fabric
Caned furniture
Best Design Tips
Use a neutral palette and accessorize with color for a longer design lifespan.
Invest in heavily used pieces by, for example, upgrading the cushion fill in a family room sofa for extra comfort.
Consider scale. Map out a floor plan before making a big purchase.
