One of my favorite details from this project 🤍

Our homeowner had these corbels from a historic Wilmington home that she’d used in her old kitchen under the counter overhang and shelving.

Instead of letting them go, we found a new home for them under the open shelving in her pantry!

I love getting to reuse meaningful pieces like this and give them a new life in a space that feels intentional and personal. It’s the little details that make a house feel like your home.

One thing I wish homeowners knew before renovating…

You don’t need to have it all figured out.

Not the tile. Not the cabinet color. Not even the layout.

Start with what’s not working and what you want your home to feel like.

We can figure out the rest together. 🤍

That’s where the fun part starts — talking through ideas, figuring out what makes sense for your home and your budget, and making decisions that all work together.

You don’t have to come to us with all the answers. That’s what we’re here for. 🤍

Sometimes it’s not the square footage. It’s what’s happening inside it.

Good design isn’t about having more space, It’s about using the space you have well.

Too many upper cabinets😳

Poor or uneven lighting💡

Walkways that are too narrow😬

An undersized (or oversized) island🏝️

Not enough (or poorly planned) storage➡️A kitchen can have plenty of space on paper and still feel cramped.😅

Good design is about making the space you have feel bigger, work better, and make sense for how you actually live.

Which one surprises you most? 👇

People ask us what it’s like working together as husband and wife.

Honestly? It’s a lot like marriage… except now we get to disagree about countertops, schedules, budgets, and who forgot to order something. 😬😂

Add in two kids, running a business, and trying to have some semblance of a normal life… and apparently we thought we needed a renovation business too.

But somehow, it works. (Not always immediately. Sometimes I need some simmer time. 😂)

We bring different strengths to the table, we challenge each other (sometimes very enthusiastically), and we’re able to see a project from both the design and construction sides.

And at the end of the day, we’re building something together — literally and otherwise.

One vision. One team. One slightly chaotic life. 🤍

They moved in last Wednesday. The kitchen isn’t finished. 😂

So this is what “almost home” looks like.

My parents officially moved into their new space last week, even though we had to wait until today for the kitchen cabinets to start going in.

There are still boxes, projects to finish, and a temporary kitchen situation happening… but after everything we’ve done to get here, we’re pretty excited to see them finally start living in the house.

Sometimes a renovation isn’t about waiting for everything to be perfect.

Sometimes it’s just about getting to the point where it feels like home.

We’ll keep working on the rest. 🤍
