​
We started the project with a walk-through of the home, taking time to listen, observe, and understand the goals for the renovation. That first meeting set the foundation for every decision that followed.
We completed detailed measurements and 3D scans to get a clear understanding of the existing structure. This step gave us the accuracy we needed to plan confidently and design with intention.
Existing layout no 3rd level.
Proposed layout, adding a full 3rd level.
We created 2D layout options to explore how the space could be reconfigured. These drawings helped us study flow, function, and overall use—setting the groundwork for the design ahead.
We met with the homeowners to review design concepts and narrow down material selections. These meetings were key to shaping the look and feel of each space
We pulled together a moodboard and selected materials that balanced function and comfort for the bathroom. The palette focused on soft tones, clean lines, and textures that brought warmth to the space while keeping it fresh and modern.
We developed a bathroom render to bring together layout, fixtures, and material choices. Seeing the space in context helped confirm design decisions and ensured the final look would feel both clean and calming.
We created a render of the kitchenette to visualize how the finishes, layout, and storage would come together. This view helped us fine-tune details and ensure the space felt light, functional, and cohesive with the rest of the home.
