These clients, a recently married husband and wife, needed to redesign their house in a way that would feel like home to both of them — a place where each partner could experience a familiar welcome and find inspiration to embrace something new. The resulting space embodies their commitment to merging two separate lives without sacrificing either identity.

In addition to a welcoming, functional space that represents the best of both their tastes, the clients also needed somewhere where friends and loved ones could gather. The house required more than just a redesign; it needed a complete metamorphosis. The closed floor plan was opened. The outdated stone of the fireplace was replaced by elegant custom tile and stainless steel. Countertops were upgraded to quartzite, and knotty pine cabinets were transformed into rich walnut. Step by step, the house evolved from a mere living space into a place where its occupants could thrive.
