The Irwin Farmhouse project is especially significant for us as it is our own “new” home. It may just be our favorite project to date. While we’ve renovated for ourselves before (see our most recent project at our previous house here), we always made changes one room at a time. This time we updated the entire house at once before we moved in. That enabled us to make the whole house cohesive from a design standpoint and create a space that perfectly reflects what feels like home to us.

Family Style Galley Kitchen – Before & After

The Family Style Galley Kitchen is in a Tudor-style home built in 1920. The house had so much character, from the diamond-pane windows in the front room to the dark wood paneling throughout, but the kitchen didn't fit the stately elegance of the rest of the house. Our clients' main goal was to open the kitchen up to the surrounding rooms. They also desired to create more space in the kitchen so the whole family could be in there together, and update the design to a blend of modern style and timeless sophistication.

Our Favorite Details – Bathroom Edition

Over the years and through all kinds of projects, we've collected some favorite details that just seem to finish the job well. We pride ourselves in regularly paying attention to details in all projects. They are just as important to the overall finish of a space as the big items, and we believe they are often the little touches that enhance functionality for the client. Some of these details were our idea, some were requested by our clients, but all made a difference in their respective spaces. Here are our favorite details - bathroom edition!

Franklin Farmhouse – Before & After

The Franklin Farmhouse was a very fun project for us! Our clients were long-time friends who had moved back to the area after years of living out of state, and their modern farmhouse style is very similar to the style we prefer for our own home. The house is in an ideal location on a lot with plenty of elbow-room and lots of mature trees. Built in the early 1990s, the house was the perfect size for a growing family, yet felt bland and generic. Our clients' goals were to increase the functionality of the house for their family's needs while also updating the style of the home.

The Nottingham Woods Modern Kitchen project is located in a highly-coveted area in Denton with mature trees, lots of parks and well-established homes. Built in the mid-80s, the Nottingham Woods house was in excellent repair but our clients desired a more up-to-date kitchen that aligned with their style.

The Redemption House – Before & After

When we first saw the property we would come to call “The Redemption House,” it was uninhabitable. Built in 1916, it had been added onto more than once, yet the latest work seemed to have been in the 1970s. While it was in a coveted historical area in Denton, it had been vacant for quite a while and was badly overgrown and neglected.
