Young kids, real furniture, actual weeknights. My work leans warm and collected — natural materials, layered texture, and rooms that look like they came together over years instead of a weekend.
I started this studio after years of doing it for friends, family, and my own house, and finally admitting it was the thing I wanted to do all day. I work with a small number of clients at a time so every project gets my full attention.
I'm also a licensed Illinois real estate agent, which means I think about your home the way a buyer eventually will. Good design and good resale are rarely in conflict, and I'll tell you when they are.
Not a magazine's. If a white sofa is wrong for your family, I'll say so before you buy it, not after.
The best rooms have something in them with a story. We design around what you already love instead of clearing it out.
Some things are worth the splurge and most things are not. Knowing the difference is most of the job.




I read every inquiry myself and reply within two business days.
