The color stories defining 2026: layered neutrals, softened contrasts, and hues that feel curated - not trendy.
Because luxury lives in restraint. ❧

Soft, timeless, and thoughtfully tailored ✨
This Jack & Jill girls’ bath was designed to feel elevated yet enduring. A place where delicate blush tones, classic millwork, and warm brass details create a space that will grow gracefully with them. Luxury lives in the quiet details, and here, every finish was chosen with intention to balance beauty, function, and longevity.
A reminder that even the most everyday spaces deserve a refined point of view.

…uh… What’s a TEAR SHEET?!
As a part of our design services (full service or virtual) we provide detailed tear sheets that provide you everything you need to know about the individual item:
📋What it is (duh!)
📏Specifications (b/c size matters here!)
🏷️Price
📦ETA
How it differs for each service:
📍For FULL SERVICE: We use them in our presentations, showing you the fuller piece that goes along with the finish or fabric sample displayed for you. We often use them to make notes on for fabricators and upholsters so they have an additional visual to make sure that we’re on the same page. It’s also a great way for a client - in the middle of a lot of big decisions - have a singular view on a piece when deciding their feelings on it.
📍For VIRTUAL: We use this to send over in a similar way, it gives clients an easy view of an item. In this service, since they’re doing the shopping themselves, it also includes a link to the item (which also connects to your shopping list.) Also, if a VC has decided to purchase a different piece, this gives them the ideal sizing/specifications so that they don’t have to question if it will work later.
Tear Sheets have always been a favorite of mine. I’ll use them in our Spec books and Furnishings binders, often stapling a tiny piece of fabric that we’re specifying for it. It’s just a great way to visualize even more… and that’s what we’re all about!

Is this a real “series”? Well, no, but it should be a whole movement. The times were an interior designer are brought on later than they should needs to be studied. Investments take time. You deserve for your home to get the time and all of the intentional pieces we want to create for it. 🤍

✨Are you looking for help on creating that space that you’ll bring your baby home to? Where those sleepless nights are not bothered by a flow that doesn’t make sense?
✨Does the idea of the kitchen where your loved ones can surround the island and chat about their days just make your heart burst?

If you’ve haven’t tried romanticizing your home, you’re missing out. During the onboarding process we get tk know how you LIVE in your home.
• What’s your pattern for when you walk through the door?
• Where do your kids hang out the most while you’re in the kitchen?
• How important is your coffee to you?
Often during renovations, we’ll have clients reach out about wanting to add a coffee bar (or a bar-bar!🥂) with the idea of really using the space at hand to create a home that fits their functions. Sometimes, the issue comes with a worry about it can’t be done due to space, well we have news:
You don’t need as much as you think to be the base for something you’ll use for years to come. We added a few options between 12” to 4’, that can help give you a visual on what could happen in your home.
Fully custom to aesthetic renovations, it’s always important to share exactly what you hope for and let the professionals find the best ways to make that happen.
We love a stand out nook and could use a coffee right about NOW! ☕️

One of the best parts of our construction management and sourcing phase is that we keep the decisions fatigue to a minimum for our clients. Keeping a smooth selection process makes it so that this scroll of needs lands on us and not on you.
Let’s create home WITHOUT losing our minds! 😉
