Our Specialties
Space Planning
Reconfiguring a layout can be key to successful interior design, heavily influencing how you move through and use a residential or commercial space. We also excel at expanding existing homes, ensuring a cohesive, seamless feel throughout.
Historic Home Renovations
Working around and maintaining historic elements in older construction is exceedingly rewarding, but also presents many challenges. We are often tasked with providing modern conveniences that honor original details.
Construction-Conscious Design
Our Principal Designer's experience at a high-end architecture firm and understanding of construction methods bridge the gap between design intent and build-out. Our comprehensive designs and efficient systems make construction run more smoothly.
Hello, I'm Shila (pronounced Shy-la)
NCIDQ certified, LEED AP
My team and I deliver high-level design emphasizing functionality, thorough documentation, and construction-conscious details.
Our clients are smart, busy professionals that don’t have the time, patience, or expertise to efficiently tackle their project. For them, it makes sense to outsource the stress. That’s where my team and I come in.

Our Six Phase System
We utilize a reliable process to ensure you project runs as efficiently as possible.
-
Before we can even think about design, we need to meet, review each space, and develop a clear project profile that outlines the functional and aesthetic end goals through a design consultation.
-
For renovations, remodels, and additions, we survey, evaluate and digitally document the existing conditions.
-
We do any necessary space planning, develop a drawing set, select products, order material and finish samples, and prepare preliminary pricing.
-
We refine the proposed design with any requested changes and update your entire design package accordingly.
For Comprehensive Design clients, this is where our work would conclude.
-
Communication with the contractor regarding timeline and logistics increases. We initiate procurement to order and track all product in the finalized design.
-
We correspond with the contractor to review unforeseen issues, to troubleshoot, or to provide any design -related clarifications. Procurement continues.
-
We tie up any lose ends and you finally get to enjoy your new space(s)!
For our Full-Service Design clients, this is where our work would conclude.
