Outdoor Living Oasis

Winter in the Pacific Northwest can definitely be a challenge as we experience shorter days, endless rain, and those moody gray clouds! But turning your outdoor space into a spot you can enjoy all year long makes a difference for both your home and your wellbeing. Hopefully these photos inspire you to make your outdoor space one you’ll love no matter the season!


How to make your hot tub awesome

This custom deck transforms a standard hot tub into a true backyard retreat. By surrounding the spa with a wood cladding and pairing it with a modern privacy screen, the design makes this space both functional and attractive.

The contrasting tones of soft gray wood and bold black fencing strike the perfect balance between calm and contemporary, while thoughtful details like built-in storage and an oversized umbrella ensure the space feels just as practical as it is inviting.

Different details that bring life and vibrancy to the space

Sometimes it’s the little details, like a playful plant hanger, that make a space feel alive! We love how this little plant holder elevates the space.

Funky patterns, pillows and textures, fireplace design

Designed with a sleek black-and-white palette, the area feels bold yet inviting, thanks to its mix of textures and thoughtful details. A sectional and lounge chair outfitted with layers of patterned and solid pillows create a welcoming spot for conversation or relaxation by the fire.

The glass-enclosed fire table becomes the natural centerpiece, adding warmth and ambiance on cool evenings. We choose this linear style to elongate the space and create a welcoming environment.

The black shiplap wall, paired with an abstract graphic mural, brings a contemporary, artistic edge, while greenery in sculptural planters softens the look and infuses the space with life. Overhead, a heater ensures year-round comfort, and a wall-mounted television transforms the setting into the ultimate entertainment zone.

Serene Bathroom Remodel

Serene Bathroom Remodel

This bathroom remodel is a stunning example of how design can make a space into both a sanctuary and a statement! Green walls set the tone, grounding the room in a soothing yet dramatic color palette. Paired with light wood cabinetry, this creates warmth, balance, and a natural connection to the outdoors, visible through the generously sized window. We hope you feel inspired after looking at this space!

From the moment you step into the bathroom, the rich green walls command attention. Deep yet calming, this color choice reflects one of today’s strongest design movements: bringing nature indoors. It pairs effortlessly with the warm tones of the light wood cabinetry, creating a balance that feels both grounded and fresh.

One of the standout elements in this room is the arched black-framed mirror. Arches have become a recent trend in interior design, offering a graceful way to soften lines and create visual interest. This mirror is perfect for this space and we love how unique it is!

We decided to integrate the existing windows in this bathroom and we love the impact it has on the space! By allowing natural light to flood the room we kept the green walls from feeling too heavy and brought more natural light to those using the space. The view of the trees outside adds a serene backdrop, reinforcing the indoor-outdoor connection that so many homeowners are craving right now.

We choose these light warm cabinets for the warmth they bring to the space. This bench was added as a get ready area for makeup and hair, and we custom designed this set of three drawers for keeping beauty products organized!

Extra counter space was a must for these homeowners! We extended the beautiful white countertops on either side of the sink to create plenty of workspace. No more bumping into each other in the morning!

In the shower, large-format stone-look tiles are carried seamlessly from the walls onto the sloped ceiling. This choice not only elongates the feeling of the room but also creates a luxurious feel. The entire room is color drenched, which gives an enveloping feel to this space.

The natural gray veining adds an organic texture. A built-in bench enhances the shower’s functionality, offering a practical spot for comfort and ease. Together, these details prove that style and everyday comfort can live beautifully side by side.

The gold shower fixtures instantly elevate the design, bringing in just the right amount of glam and sparkle. They catch the light beautifully, adding warmth and a little touch of luxury to the cool tones of the tile. It’s like jewelry for the bathroom!

The shower floor features a marbled triangular tile that adds visual interest and texture. Its intricate pattern draws the eye and creates a sense of movement beneath the larger stone-look walls. This detailed touch balances the clean lines of the space while adding depth and character.

Lighting for Luxurious Living

Lighting for Luxurious Living


When it comes to designing a truly luxurious space, lighting should never be an afterthought! It can truly be one of the most powerful and crucial tools in your design arsenal. The right lighting doesn’t just illuminate a room, it enhances mood, elevates materials, and creates an immersive experience that feels both intentional and indulgent. In this blog post, we’re going to share some of our favorite lighting we have done in luxury spaces! Enjoy!

These bold brass pendants steal the show, adding just the right amount of sparkle to this sleek white kitchen. They balance out the big island beautifully, giving the space a warm, welcoming vibe that makes you want to pull up a chair and stay a while.

The bubble chandelier is like jewelry for this dining room! It’s playful, eye-catching, and full of personality. It catches the light by day, glows softly at night, and pairs perfectly with those amazing city views. Dinner under this beautiful light feels instantly elevated.

The amber glass pendants give this bar a cozy, laid-back glow that says “come hang out.” They highlight the rich wood cabinets and stone textures, while setting the mood for sipping wine or mixing cocktails. It’s lighting that makes the whole space feel like a hidden gem.

Clean lines and neutral tones set the stage for this modern dining room, but it’s the globe chandelier that brings the whole space to life. Its playful, geometric design spreads light evenly across the long table, while doubling as a statement piece of contemporary art. The mix of sophistication and fun makes everyday meals feel a little more like a celebration.

This mid-century modern powder room proves that even small spaces deserve big design moments. The sculptural pendant feels like a piece of art, floating above the sleek vanity while casting a soft, flattering glow on the rich teal walls. It’s the kind of lighting that turns a powder bathroom from average to extraordinary!

This laundry room embraces a clean, functional design, and the recessed lighting keeps the space feeling bright and fresh. A pair of subtle spotlights highlight the colorful art, adding a touch of personality to a room that’s usually all about utility. This type of accent lighting truly makes this a functional and beautiful laundry room.

We added these sculptural sconces to the primary bedroom to bring in both interest and sophistication. Choosing sconces instead of table lamps instantly upgrades the space by saving room on the bedside tables while creating a more elevated look. It’s a simple switch that makes the whole room feel more intentional, thoughtful, and beautifully designed.
